The domain name system (DNS) that maps alphabetic names to numeric Internet Protocol (IP) addresses plays a foundational role for Internet communications. By default, DNS queries and responses are exchanged in unencrypted plaintext, and…
As ISPs face IPv4 address scarcity they increasingly turn to network address translation (NAT) to accommodate the address needs of their customers. Recently, ISPs have moved beyond employing NATs only directly at individual customers and…
As one of the most popular south-bound protocol of software-defined networking(SDN), OpenFlow decouples the network control from forwarding devices. It offers flexible and scalable functionality for networks. These advantages may cause…
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a network paradigm shift that facilitates comprehensive network programmability to cope with emerging new technologies such as cloud computing and big data. SDN facilitates simplified and centralized…
Private 5G networks provide enhanced security, a wide range of optimized services through network slicing, reduced latency, and support for many IoT devices in a specific area, all under the owner's full control. Higher security and privacy…
Segment Routing is a form of loose source routing. It provides the ability to include a list of instructions (called segments), in the packet headers. The Segment Routing architecture has been first implemented with the MPLS dataplane and…
Payment channel networks (PCN) are used in cryptocurrencies to enhance the performance and scalability of off-chain transactions. Except for opening and closing of a payment channel, no other transaction requests accepted by a PCN are…
Ensuring uninterrupted data flow in modern networks requires robust fault-tolerant mechanisms, especially in environments where reliability and responsiveness are critical. This paper presents the design and simulation of a fault-tolerant…
Software Defined Networks has seen tremendous growth and deployment in different types of networks. Compared to traditional networks it decouples the control logic from network layer devices, and centralizes it for efficient traffic…
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have emerged as a key technology for next generation wireless broadband networks showing rapid progress and inspiring numerous compelling applications. A WMN comprises of a set of mesh routers (MRs) and mesh…
In recent times, the Internet of Things (IoT) has a significant rise in industries, and we live in the era of Industry 4.0, where each device is connected to the Internet from small to big. These devices are Artificial Intelligence (AI)…
Various techniques need to be combined to realize anonymously authenticated communication. Cryptographic tools enable anonymous user authentication while anonymous communication protocols hide users' IP addresses from service providers. One…
Security and Privacy are crucial in modern Internet services. Transport Layer Security (TLS) has largely addressed the issue of security. However, information about the type of service being accessed goes in plain-text in the initial…
Software-defined networking (SDN) eases network management by centralizing the control plane and separating it from the data plane. The separation of planes in SDN, however, introduces new vulnerabilities in SDN networks since the…
Differential GNSS (DGNSS) has been demonstrated to provide reliable, high-quality range correction information enabling real-time navigation with centimeter to sub-meter accuracy, which is required for applications such as connected and…
Internal routing inside an ISP network is the foundation for lots of services that generate revenue from the ISP's customers. A fine-grained control of paths taken by network traffic once it enters the ISP's network is therefore a crucial…
5G-LAN is an enterprise local area network (LAN) that leverages 5G technology for wireless connectivity instead of WiFi. 5G technology is unique: it uses network slicing to distinguish customers in the same traffic class using new QoS…
The Internet of Things (IoT) is giving a boost to a plethora of new opportunities for the robust and sustainable deployment of cyber physical systems. The cornerstone of any IoT system is the sensing devices. These sensing devices have…
