Cloud computing is widely adopted by corporate as well as retail customers to reduce the upfront cost of establishing computing infrastructure. However, switching to the cloud based services poses a multitude of questions, both for…

Geo-distributed data analytics are increasingly common to derive useful information in large organisations. Naive extension of existing cluster-scale data analytics systems to the scale of geo-distributed data centers faces unique…

In the era of big-data, the jobs submitted to the clouds exhibit complicated structures represented by graphs, where the nodes denote the sub-tasks each of which can be accommodated at a slot in a server, while the edges indicate the…

Wireless edge networks in smart industrial environments increasingly operate using advanced sensors and autonomous machines interacting with each other and generating huge amounts of data. Those huge amounts of data are bound to make data…

Given the vital role that smart meter data could play in handling uncertainty in energy markets, data markets have been proposed as a means to enable increased data access. However, most extant literature considers energy markets and data…

We study a joint facility location and cost planning problem in a competitive market under random utility maximization (RUM) models. The objective is to locate new facilities and make decisions on the costs (or budgets) to spend on the new…

We study optimization algorithms for the finite sum problems frequently arising in machine learning applications. First, we propose novel variants of stochastic gradient descent with a variance reduction property that enables linear…

In many machine learning for healthcare tasks, standard datasets are constructed by amassing data across many, often fundamentally dissimilar, sources. But when does adding more data help, and when does it hinder progress on desired model…

Data trading is becoming increasingly popular, as evident by the appearance of scores of Data Marketplaces (DMs) in the last few years. Pricing digital assets is particularly complex since, unlike physical assets, digital ones can be…

We introduce a neighborhood-based data access model for distributed coded storage allocation. Storage nodes are connected in a generic network and data is accessed locally: a user accesses a randomly chosen storage node, which subsequently…

Cooperative decision making is a vision of future network management and control. Distributed connection preemption is an important example where nodes can make intelligent decisions on allocating resources and controlling traffic flows for…

In data centers, data replication is the primary method used to ensure availability of customer data. To avoid correlated failure, cloud storage infrastructure providers model hierarchical failure domains using a tree, and avoid placing a…

The Internet of things (IoT) generates a plethora of data nowadays, and cloud computing has been introduced as an efficient solution to IoT data management. A cloud resource administrator usually adopts the replication strategy to guarantee…

We consider the problem of data storage in a geographically distributed (or geo-distributed) network of servers (or nodes) where inter-node communication incurs certain round-trip delays. Every node serves a set of users who can request any…

Locating data efficiently is a key process in every distributed data storage solution and particularly those deployed in multi-site environments, such as found in Cloud and Fog computing. Nevertheless, the existing protocols dedicated to…

Hierarchical edge-cloud computing-aided Internet of Things (IoT) networks offer low-latency and cost-efficient services to a growing number of data-intensive IoT devices. However, optimizing service placement, which involves determining the…

In the rapidly evolving research on artificial intelligence (AI) the demand for fast, computationally efficient, and scalable solutions has increased in recent years. The problem of optimizing the computing resources for distributed machine…

Cloud computing provides scientists a platform that can deploy computation and data intensive applications without infrastructure investment. With excessive cloud resources and a decision support system, large generated data sets can be…

Several high-throughput distributed data-processing applications require multi-hop processing of streams of data. These applications include continual processing on data streams originating from a network of sensors, composing a multimedia…

The exponential growth of devices and data at the edges of the Internet is rising scalability and privacy concerns on approaches based exclusively on remote cloud platforms. Data gravity, a fundamental concept in Fog Computing, points…
