IP geolocation databases are widely used in research, policy, and industry, yet their accuracy across network types and geographies remains poorly characterized. We present a large scale evaluation of four major providers (MaxMind GeoLite2,…
Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTN) are critical for reliable communications in challenged network environments, particularly for space systems where end-to-end connectivity cannot be guaranteed. We present an open-source,…
As distributed model training scales to span hundreds of thousands of GPUs, scale-out networks face unprecedented performance and efficiency demands. NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet has been designed from the ground up to achieve predictable and…
We design and deploy in production the first flat datacenter networks. Our design, called RNG, is based on quasi-random graphs. While the cost and fault-tolerance benefits of such topologies have been long known, their practical realization…
Deploying machine learning (ML) algorithms on mobile phones is bottlenecked by performance degradation under dynamic, real-world conditions that differ from the offline training conditions. While continual learning and adaptation are…
The development of the Open RAN (O-RAN) framework helps enable network slicing through its virtualization, interoperability, and flexibility. To improve spectral efficiency and better meet users' dynamic and heterogeneous service demands,…
In future large-scale deployments of 6G and beyond networks, collecting timely information, as measured by the Age of Information (AoI) metric, is becoming increasingly important. At the same time, the environmental impact, often…
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is widely used in IoT systems because of its low power consumption, interoperability, and reliable bidirectional communication. However, its connection-oriented architecture introduces trade-offs among wake-up…
Existing LoRaWAN/LoRa simulators consist of large, complicated C++ codebases and often do not support all device classes. This paper presents the design of a simple to use, Python-based discrete-event simulator that addresses these gaps…
This work presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of a LoRa-based mesh network using the Meshtastic protocol for Smart Campus applications at Universidad Militar Nueva Granada (UMNG). The system integrates heterogeneous hardware…
Network operators are often interested in verifying \emph{eventually-stable properties} of network control planes: properties of control plane states that hold eventually, and hold forever thereafter, provided the operating environment…
Next-generation mobile networks are expected to facilitate fast AI model downloading to end users. By caching models on edge servers, mobile networks can deliver models to end users with low latency, resulting in a paradigm of edge model…
Reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising paradigm for Internet congestion control, achieving higher link utilization than classical heuristics. However, RL-based controllers trained in single-flow environments are not…
Batteryless IoT systems have largely followed two paths: ambient-energy sensing, where energy arrival is decoupled from the event being monitored, and kinetic event telegrams, where a user actuation powers a short report of the actuation…
This paper reports on a real-world case study in which over 100 network engineers assessed how a Large Language Model (LLM) can assist in building and operating a network. The versatility of LLMs has accelerated their adoption across a wide…
Detecting anomalies in Internet of Things (IoT) networks is a critical security challenge, often hampered by highly imbalanced and diverse network traffic datasets. Standard classifiers struggle to perform well across all traffic types.…
The Invisible Internet Project (I2P) is a peer-to-peer anonymous overlay network whose architecture includes a structurally distinct sublayer not characterized in existing security literature. We term this sublayer the Exclusive Network:…
As modern wireless communication networks grow increasingly complex, network outages driven by the inconsistency between dynamic topologies and protocol configurations have become a critical concern. To solve this issue, we mathematically…
The low-altitude economy (LAE) is reshaping the industrial landscape by deploying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to facilitate a wide range of applications demanding flexible aerial mobility. Integrating edge artificial intelligence (AI)…
The Satellite Internet of Things (S-IoT) enables global connectivity for remote sensing devices that must operate energy-efficiently over long time spans. We consider an S-IoT system consisting of a sender-receiver pair connected by a data…
