Serverless Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a popular cloud paradigm to quickly and cheaply implement complex applications. Because the function instances cloud providers start to execute user code run on shared infrastructure, their…
This paper presents Plaza6G, the first operational Experiment-as-a-Service (ExaS) platform unifying cloud resources with next-generation wireless infrastructure. Developed at CTTC in Barcelona, Plaza6G integrates GPU-accelerated compute…
The fifth generation (5G) wireless network technology is to be standardized by 2020, where main goals are to improve capacity, reliability, and energy efficiency, while reducing latency and massively increasing connection density. An…
Serverless Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms provide applications with resources that are highly elastic, quick to instantiate, accounted at fine granularity, and without the need for explicit runtime resource orchestration. This…
Applications that use edge computing and 5G to improve response times consume both compute and network resources. However, 5G networks manage only network resources without considering the application's compute requirements, and container…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) has raised a growing interest in how to "tame" serverless computing to enable domain-specific use cases such as data-intensive applications and machine learning (ML), to name a few. Recently, several systems…
Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) is a Serverless Cloud paradigm where a platform manages the scheduling (e.g., resource allocation, runtime environments) of stateless functions. Recent work proposed using domain-specific languages to express…
Serverless computing is increasingly adopted for AI-driven workloads due to its automatic scaling and pay-as-you-go model. However, its function-based architecture creates significant security risks, including excessive privilege allocation…
The application of serverless computing for alignment of RNA-sequences can improve many existing bioinformatics workflows by reducing operational costs and execution times. This work analyzes the applicability of serverless services for…
For many years, the distributed systems community has struggled to smooth the transition from local to remote computing. Transparency means concealing the complexities of distributed programming like remote locations, failures or scaling.…
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Distributed Networking (SDN) technologies play a crucial role in enabling 5G system and beyond. A synergy between these both technologies has been identified for enabling a new concept…
Microservice architecture is the common choice for developing cloud applications these days since each individual microservice can be independently modified, replaced, and scaled. As a result, application development and operating cloud…
Security is a core responsibility for Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) providers. The prevailing approach has each function execute in its own container to isolate concurrent executions of different functions. However, successive invocations of…
5G promises enhanced performance-not only in bandwidth and capacity, but also latency and security. Its ultra-reliable low-latency configuration targets round-trip times below 1 ms, while optional security controls extend protection across…
Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) is one form of the serverless cloud computing paradigm and is defined through FaaS platforms (e.g., AWS Lambda) executing event-triggered code snippets (i.e., functions). Many studies that empirically evaluate…
Fifth generation (5G) cellular networks will serve a wide variety of heterogeneous use cases, including mobile broadband users, ultra-low latency services and massively dense connectivity scenarios. The resulting diverse communication…
Thanks to technologies such as virtual network function the Fifth Generation (5G) of mobile networks dynamically allocate resources to different types of users in an on-demand fashion. Virtualization extends up to the 5G core, where…
Deploying FL using IoT devices is an area poised to significantly benefit from advances in NextG wireless. In this paper, we deploy a FL application using a 5G-NR Standalone (SA) testbed with open-source and Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS)…
Existing disaggregated databases separate execution and storage layers, enabling independent and elastic scaling of resources. In most cases, this design makes transaction concurrency control (CC) a critical bottleneck, which demands…
Serverless computing has achieved widespread adoption, with over 70% of AWS organizations using serverless solutions [1]. Meanwhile, machine learning inference workloads increasingly migrate to Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms for…
