This paper introduces MACH, a novel approach for optimizing task handover in vehicular computing scenarios. To ensure fast and latency-aware placement of tasks, the decision-making -- where and when should tasks be offloaded -- is carried…

Time-Sensitive Networking enhances Ethernet-based In-Vehicle Networks (IVNs) with real-time capabilities. Different traffic shaping algorithms have been proposed for time-critical communication, of which the Asynchronous Traffic Shaper…

Long range communication with LoRa has become popular as it avoids the complexity of multi-hop communication at low cost and low energy consumption. LoRa is openly accessible, but its packets are particularly vulnerable to collisions due to…

Datacenter congestion control protocols are challenged to navigate the throughput-buffering trade-off while relative packet buffer capacity is trending lower year-over-year. In this context, receiver-driven protocols -- which schedule…

TCP BBR's behavior has been explained by various theoretical models, and in particular those that describe how it co-exists with other types of flows. However, as new versions of the BBR protocol have emerged, it remains unclear to what…

In contrast to its predecessors, 5G supports a wide range of commercial, industrial, and critical infrastructure scenarios. One key feature of 5G, ultra-reliable low latency communication, is particularly appealing to such scenarios for its…

Existing blockchain sharding protocols have focused on eliminating imbalanced workload distributions. However, even with workload balance, disparities in processing capabilities can lead to differential stress among shards, resulting in…

The fifth generation of cellular technology (5G) delivers faster speeds, lower latency, and improved network service alongside support for a large number of users and a diverse range of verticals. This brings increased complexity to network…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of 5G and B5G (beyond 5G) networks, efficient resource optimization is critical to addressing the escalating demands for high-speed, low-latency, and energy efficient communication. This study explores the…

Advanced AI-Generated Content (AIGC) technologies have injected new impetus into teleoperation, further enhancing its security and efficiency. Edge AIGC networks have been introduced to meet the stringent low-latency requirements of…

RDMA is vital for efficient distributed training across datacenters, but millisecond-scale latencies complicate the design of its reliability layer. We show that depending on long-haul link characteristics, such as drop rate, distance and…

This paper presents a system for session-level traffic classification on endpoint devices, developed using a Hardware-aware Neural Architecture Search (HW-NAS) framework. HW-NAS optimizes Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures by…

The promising potential of AI and network convergence in improving networking performance and enabling new service capabilities has recently attracted significant interest. Existing network AI solutions, while powerful, are mainly built…

With its significant security potential, the quantum internet is poised to revolutionize technologies like cryptography and communications. Although it boasts enhanced security over traditional networks, the quantum internet still…

Optimizing microservice placement to enhance the reliability of services is crucial for improving the service level of microservice architecture-based mobile networks and Internet of Things (IoT) networks. Despite extensive research on…

Near-space information networks (NSINs) composed of high-altitude platforms (HAPs) and high- and low-altitude unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are a new regime for providing quick, robust, and cost-efficient sensing and communication…

Single Root Input/Output Virtualization (SR-IOV) is a standard technology for forking a single PCI express device and providing it to applications while ensuring performance isolation. It enables container orchestrators to share a limited…

Timely and efficient dissemination of service information is critical in compute-first networking systems, where user requests arrive dynamically and computing resources are constrained. In such systems, the access point (AP) plays a key…

Kubernetes Services such as LoadBalancer and NodePort expose applications running on pods within a Kubernetes cluster to external users. While the LoadBalancer Service requires an external load-balancing middleware, its alternative,…

Open Radio Access Network (Open RAN) is a new paradigm to provide fundamental features for supporting next-generation mobile networks. Disaggregation, virtualisation, closed-loop data-driven control, and open interfaces bring flexibility…
