相关论文: Poor Peering: a reflexion about a RIXP

Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing is currently attracting enormous attention. In P2P systems a very large number of autonomous computing nodes (the peers) pool together their resources and rely on each other for data and services. Peer-to-peer…

Allocation of the global IP address space is under the purview of IANA, who distributes management responsibility among five geographically distinct Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). Each RIR is empowered to bridge technical (e.g.,…

When does Internet traffic cross international borders? This question has major geopolitical, legal and social implications and is surprisingly difficult to answer. A critical stumbling block is a dearth of tools that accurately map routers…

Internet providers often offer data plans that, for each user's monthly billing cycle, guarantee a fixed amount of data at high rates until a byte threshold is reached, at which point the user's data rate is throttled to a lower rate for…

Next-generation internet-of-things (IoT) networks require extremely low latency, complexity, and collision probability. We introduce the novel partial-information multiple access (PIMA) scheme, a semi-grant-free (GF) coordinated random…

Intelligent reflective surface (IRS) technologies help mitigate undesirable effects in wireless links by steering the communication signal between transmitters and receivers. IRS elements are configured to adjust the phase of the reflected…

The advent of online social networks has facilitated fast and wide spread of information. However, some users, especially members of minority groups, may be less likely to receive information spreading on the network, due to their…

The Internet is constantly changing, and its hierarchy was recently shown to become flatter. Recent studies of inter-domain traffic showed that large content providers drive this change by bypassing tier-1 networks and reaching closer to…

Contemporary web pages with increasingly sophisticated interfaces rival traditional desktop applications for interface complexity and are often called web applications or RIA (Rich Internet Applications). They often require the execution of…

Wireless communications are nowadays shifting to higher operation frequencies with the aim to meet the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth. While reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are usually envisioned to restore the…

A proposal for building an index of the Web that separates the infrastructure part of the search engine - the index - from the services part that will form the basis for myriad search engines and other services utilizing Web data on top of…

Modern large-scale data centers are known for their engineering complexity, cooling, and oversubscription challenges. To mitigate these issues, this article proposes the implementation of community data centers that are closer to consumers…

The problem of efficient resource allocation has drawn significant attention in many scientific disciplines due to its direct societal benefits, such as energy savings. Traditional approaches in addressing online resource allocation…

With the rapid growth of congestion-sensitive and data-intensive applications, traditional settlement-free peering agreements with best-effort delivery often do not meet the QoS requirements of content providers (CPs). Meanwhile, Internet…

Visualization has long been fundamental to human communication and decision-making. Today, we stand at the threshold of integrating veridical, high-fidelity visualizations into immersive digital environments, alongside digital twinning…

Vibrant development of a network-based economy requires separating investment in highly location specific local access technology from the development of standardized, geography-independent, wide-area network services. Thus far…

With the stringent requirements introduced by the new sixth-generation (6G) internet-of-things (IoT) use cases, traditional approaches to multiple access control have started to show their limitations. A new wave of grant-free (GF)…

TV White Spaces have recently been proposed as an alternative to alleviate the spectrum crunch, characterised by the need to reallocate frequency bands to accommodate the ever-growing demand for wireless communications. In this paper, we…

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have emerged as one of the most studied topics in recent years, hailed as a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize future wireless systems. While RISs are recognized for…

In this paper we address two problems, for which we present novel, efficient, algorithmic solutions. The first problem is motivated by practical situations and is concerned with the efficient estimation of the upload bandwidth of a machine,…
