An effective packet processing abstraction that leverages software or hardware acceleration techniques can simplify the implementation of high-performance virtual network functions. In this paper, we explore the suitability of SDN switches'…

We design and implement Megaphone, a data migration mechanism for stateful distributed dataflow engines with latency objectives. When compared to existing migration mechanisms, Megaphone has the following differentiating characteristics:…

In recent years, network coding has emerged as an innovative method that helps a wireless network approach its maximum capacity, by combining multiple unicasts in one broadcast. However, the majority of research conducted in this area is…

Containerization plays a crucial role in the de facto technology stack for implementing microservices architecture (each microservice has its own database in most cases). Nevertheless, there are still fierce debates on containerizing…

To investigate the effect and ability of FACTS devices using the Fast and Flexible Holomorphic Embedding technique (FFHE), it is necessary to develop an embedded system for these devices. Therefore, this paper presents FFHE based embedded…

Distributed stream processing systems are widely deployed to process real-time data generated by various devices, such as sensors and software systems. A key challenge in the system is overloading, which leads to an unstable system status…

In networks, availability is of paramount importance. As link failures are disruptive, modern networks in turn provide Fast ReRoute (FRR) mechanisms to rapidly restore connectivity. However, existing FRR approaches heavily impact…

In this paper, we address the problem of supporting stateful workflows following a Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) model in edge networks. In particular we focus on the problem of data transfer, which can be a performance bottleneck due to the…

Federated learning (FL) enables distributed model training from local data collected by users. In distributed systems with constrained resources and potentially high dynamics, e.g., mobile edge networks, the efficiency of FL is an important…

5G and beyond support the deployment of vertical applications, which is particularly appealing in combination with network slicing and edge computing to create a logically isolated environment for executing customer services. Even if…

Productivity issues such as lengthy compilation and limited code reuse have restricted usage of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), despite significant technical advantages. Recent work into overlays -- virtual coarse-grained…

Existing video recognition algorithms always conduct different training pipelines for inputs with different frame numbers, which requires repetitive training operations and multiplying storage costs. If we evaluate the model using other…

Serverless computing has emerged as a very popular cloud technology, together with its companion Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) programming model enabling invocations of stateless functions from clients. An evolution of serverless is now…

Network virtualization and softwarizing network functions are trends aiming at higher network efficiency, cost reduction and agility. They are driven by the evolution in Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization…

Shuffle exchanges intermediate results between upstream and downstream operators in distributed data processing and is usually the bottleneck due to factors such as small random I/Os and network contention. Several systems have been…

The rapid growth of Large Transformer-based models, specifically Large Language Models (LLMs), now scaling to trillions of parameters, has necessitated training across thousands of GPUs using complex hybrid parallelism strategies (e.g.,…

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) are technologies that recently acquired a great momentum thanks to their promise of being a flexible and cost-effective solution for replacing hardware-based,…

The Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) execution model increases developer productivity by removing operational concerns such as managing hardware or software runtimes. Developers, however, still need to partition their applications into FaaS…

Software-defined networking offers numerous benefits against the legacy networking systems through simplifying the process of network management and reducing the cost of network configuration. Currently, the management of failures in the…

With mobile networks expected to support services with stringent requirements that ensure high-quality user experience, the ability to apply Feed-Forward Neural Network (FFNN) models to User Equipment (UE) use cases has become critical.…
