Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is an increasingly important regression testing technique for reordering test cases according to a pre-defined goal, particularly as agile practices gain adoption. To better understand these techniques, we…
A protocol named Threshold Bipolar (TB) is proposed as a fetching strategy at the startup stage of p2p live streaming systems. In this protocol, chunks are fetched consecutively from buffer head at the beginning. After the buffer is filled…
Currently, Burst buffer has been proposed to manage the SSD buffering of bursty write requests. Although burst buffer can improve I/O performance in many cases, we find that it has some limitations such as requiring large SSD capacity and…
Network performance problems are notoriously difficult to diagnose. Prior profiling systems collect performance statistics by keeping information about each network flow, but maintaining per-flow state is not scalable on…
The congestion control algorithms in TCP may incur inferior performance in a lossy network context like wireless networks. Previous works have shown that random linear network coding can improve the throughput of TCP in such networks,…
The design of transport protocols, embedded in end-systems, and the choice of buffer sizing strategies, within network routers, play an important role in performance analysis of the Internet. In this paper, we take a dynamical systems…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have become a cornerstone of modern AI, driving breakthroughs in natural language processing and expanding into multimodal jobs involving images, audio, and video. As with most computational software, it is…
FAST-TCP achieves better performance than traditional TCP-Reno schemes, but unfortunately it is inherently unfair to older connections due to wrong estimations of the round-trip propagation delay. This paper presents a model for this…
Many cloud systems utilize low-priority flows to achieve various performance objectives (e.g., low latency, high utilization), relying on TCP as their preferred transport protocol. However, the suitability of TCP for such low-priority flows…
How to implement an impeccable space system-of-systems (SoS) internetworking architecture has been a significant issue in system engineering for years. Reliable data transmission is considered one of the most important technologies of space…
While steady-state solutions of backlog and delay have been derived for essential wireless systems, the analysis of transient phases still poses significant challenges. Considering the majority of short-lived and interactive flows,…
State-of-the-art congestion control algorithms for data centers alone do not cope well with transient congestion and high traffic bursts. To help with these, we revisit the concept of direct \emph{backward} feedback from switches and…
Serverless computing has gained a strong traction in the cloud computing community in recent years. Among the many benefits of this novel computing model, the rapid auto-scaling capability of user applications takes prominence. However, the…
The serverless computing model strengthens the cloud computing tendency to abstract resource management. Serverless platforms are responsible for deploying and scaling the developer's applications. Serverless also incorporated the…
Low-power and lossy networks (LLNs) enable diverse applications integrating many resource-constrained embedded devices, often requiring interconnectivity with existing TCP/IP networks as part of the Internet of Things. But TCP has received…
This paper studies three fundamental aspects of an OS that impact the performance and energy efficiency of network processing: 1) batching, 2) processor energy settings, and 3) the logic and instructions of the OS networking paths. A…
Low delay is an explicit requirement for applications such as cloud gaming and video conferencing. Delay-based congestion control can achieve the same throughput but significantly smaller delay than loss-based one and is thus ideal for…
The current deployed multipath congestion control algorithms couple all the subflows together to avoid bandwidth occupation aggressiveness if the subflows of multipath transmission protocol share common bottleneck with single path TCP. The…
Efficient load-balancing mechanisms are critical for maximizing performance and increasing the quality of service (QoS) of data center networks (DCNs). Obtaining the optimal QoS while minimizing resource consumption remains a significant…
A low and stable buffer occupancy is critical to achieve high throughput, low packet drop rate, low latency, and low jitter for data center networks. It also allows switch chips to support higher port density, larger lookup tables, or…
