We consider the setting where a service is hosted on a third-party edge server deployed close to the users and a cloud server at a greater distance from the users. Due to the proximity of the edge servers to the users, requests can be…
A revolution is taking place in telecommunication networks. New services are appearing on platforms such as third generation cellular phones (3G) and broadband Internet access. This motivates the transition from mostly switched to all-IP…
As a representative of a complex technological system, so-called wireless multihop ad hoc communication networks are discussed. They represent an infrastructure-less generalization of todays wireless cellular phone networks. Lacking a…
Serverless computing adopts a pay-as-you-go billing model where applications are executed in stateless and shortlived containers triggered by events, resulting in a reduction of monetary costs and resource utilization. However, existing…
The Internet of Bio-nano Things is a significant development for next generation communication technologies. Because conventional wireless communication technologies face challenges in realizing new applications (e.g., in-body area networks…
Efficient mobility management techniques are critical in providing seamless connectivity and session continuity between a mobile node and the network during its movement. Current mobility management solutions generally require a central…
We consider energy minimization for data-intensive applications run on large number of servers, for given performance guarantees. We consider a system, where each incoming application is sent to a set of servers, and is considered to be…
Coded caching has been shown to result in significant throughput gains, but its gains were proved only by assuming a placement phase with no transmission cost. A free placement phase is, however, an unrealistic assumption that could stand…
Since January 2011, IPv4 address space has exhausted and IPv6 is taking up the place as successor. Coexistence of IPv4 and IPv6 bears problem of incompatibility, as IPv6 and IPv4 headers are different from each other, thus, cannot…
Co-simulation offers an integrated approach for modeling the large-scale integration of inverter-based resources (IBRs) into transmission and distribution grids. This paper presents a scalable communication interface design and…
Closed-loop flow control protocols, such as the prominent implementation TCP, are prevalent in the Internet, today. TCP has continuously been improved for greedy traffic sources to achieve high throughput over networks with large bandwidth…
Private network deployment is gaining momentum in warehouses, retail, automation, health care, and many such use cases to guarantee mission-critical services with less latency. Guaranteeing the delay-sensitive application in Wi-Fi is always…
To optimize the flow of traffic in IP networks, operators do traffic engineering (TE), i.e., tune routing-protocol parameters in response to traffic demands. TE in IP networks typically involves configuring static link weights and splitting…
As distributed quantum architectures begin to emerge, understanding the interaction between quantum circuit optimisation and circuit partitioning becomes increasingly important. In this work, we study how circuit optimisation influences…
This paper studies optimal switching on and o? of the entire service capacity of an M/M/Infinity queue with holding, running and switching costs where the running costs depend only on whether the system is running or not. The goal is to…
Representatives of several Internet service providers (ISPs) have expressed their wish to see a substantial change in the pricing policies of the Internet. In particular, they would like to see content providers (CPs) pay for use of the…
While end-to-end models have shown great success on the Automatic Speech Recognition task, performance degrades severely when target sentences are long-form. The previous proposed methods, (partial) overlapping inference are shown to be…
Virtual topologies in peer-to-peer networks can reduce the traffic consumed by altering the logical connectivity of peers without altering the underlying network. However, such sparsely connected virtual topologies do not focus on the needs…
Peer-to-peer interactions between small-scale energy resources exploit distribution network infrastructure as an electricity carrier, but remain financially unaccountable to electric power utilities. This status-quo raises multiple…
Energy cost of cellular networks is ever-increasing to match the surge of wireless data traffic, and the saving of this cost is important to reduce the operational expenditure (OPEX) of wireless operators in future. The recent advancements…
