We consider a mobile cloud computing system with multiple users, a remote cloud server, and a computing access point (CAP). The CAP serves both as the network access gateway and a computation service provider to the mobile users. It can…
In Edge Computing (EC), containers have been increasingly used to deploy applications to provide mobile users services. Each container must run based on a container image file that exists locally. However, it has been conspicuously…
Securing low-latency I/O in commodity systems forces a fundamental trade-off: rely on the kernel's high overhead mediated interface, or bypass it entirely, exposing sensitive hardware resources to userspace and creating new vulnerabilities.…
Cloud computing has radically changed the way organisations operate their software by allowing them to achieve high availability of services at affordable cost. Containerized microservices is an enabling technology for this change, and…
Kubernetes' high resource requirements hamper its adoption in constrained environments such as the edge and fog. Its extensible control plane is a significant contributor to this, consisting of long-lived processes called "controllers" that…
Currently, due to the advantages of light weight, simple deployment, multi-environment support, short startup time, scalability, and easy migration, container technology has been widely used in both cloud and edge/fog computing, and…
Labelled image datasets have played a critical role in high-level image understanding. However, the process of manual labelling is both time-consuming and labor intensive. To reduce the cost of manual labelling, there has been increased…
In this paper, we present a solution to the industrial challenge put forth by ARM in 2022. We systematically analyze the effect of shared resource contention to an augmented reality head-up display (AR-HUD) case-study application of the…
In the last decades, the computational power of GPUs has grown exponentially, allowing current deep learning (DL) applications to handle increasingly large amounts of data at a progressively higher throughput. However, network and storage…
In the world of the Internet, Web Servers such as Apache and Internet Information Server (IIS) were developed to exchange information among client computers having different Operation System. They have only the function of displaying static…
Modern industrial systems face a growing threat from sophisticated cyberattacks that can cause significant operational disruptions. This work presents a novel methodology for identification of the most critical cyberattacks that may disrupt…
Generative AI systems increasingly expose powerful reasoning and image refinement capabilities through user-facing chatbot interfaces. In this work, we show that the na\"ive exposure of such capabilities fundamentally undermines modern…
In cloud radio access networks (C-RANs), a substantial amount of data must be exchanged in both backhaul and fronthaul links, which causes high power consumption and poor quality of service (QoS) experience for real-time services. To solve…
A topical challenge for algorithms in general and for automatic image categorization and generation in particular is presented in the form of a drawing for AI to understand. In a second vein, AI is challenged to produce something similar…
Advances in GPU compute throughput and memory capacity brings significant opportunities to a wide range of workloads. However, efficiently utilizing these resources remains challenging, particularly because diverse application…
The placement of Kubernetes control-plane nodes is critical to ensuring cluster reliability, scalability, and performance, and therefore represents a significant deployment challenge in heterogeneous, multi-region environments. Existing…
Cloud-based computing systems could get oversubscribed due to budget constraints of cloud users which causes violation of Quality of Experience(QoE) metrics such as tasks' deadlines. We investigate an approach to achieve robustness against…
Cloud-based computing systems can get oversubscribed due to the budget constraints of their users or limitations in certain resource types. The oversubscription can, in turn, degrade the users perceived Quality of Service (QoS). The…
Quantum communication networks require transmission of high-fidelity, uncoded qubits for applications such as entanglement distribution and quantum key distribution. However, current implementations are constrained by limited buffer…
Modern code intelligence agents operate in contexts exceeding 1 million tokens--far beyond the scale where humans manually locate relevant files. Yet agents consistently fail to discover architecturally critical files when solving…
