Next generation technologies such as smart healthcare, self-driving cars, and smart cities require new approaches to deal with the network traffic generated by the Internet of Things (IoT) devices, as well as efficient programming models to…
Finding good configurations for a software system is often challenging since the number of configuration options can be large. Software engineers often make poor choices about configuration or, even worse, they usually use a sub-optimal…
Current reconfiguration techniques are based on starting the system in a consistent configuration, in which all participating entities are in their initial state. Starting from that state, the system must preserve consistency as long as a…
Serverless computing has recently experienced significant adoption by several applications, especially Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In serverless computing, rather than deploying and managing dedicated virtual machines, users are…
Integrating GPUs into serverless computing platforms is crucial for improving efficiency. However, existing solutions for GPU-enabled serverless computing platforms face two significant problems due to coarse-grained GPU management: long…
The prolonged service time at non-dedicated servers has been observed in [1]. Motivated by such real problems, we propose a stylized model which characterizes the feature of the prolonged service time at non-dedicated servers in an…
We present a framework for performance optimization in serverless edge-cloud platforms using dynamic task placement. We focus on applications for smart edge devices, for example, smart cameras or speakers, that need to perform processing…
Serverless computing offers an event driven pay-as-you-go framework for application development. A key selling point is the concept of no back-end server management, allowing developers to focus on application functionality. This is…
Serverless computing adopts a pay-as-you-go billing model where applications are executed in stateless and shortlived containers triggered by events, resulting in a reduction of monetary costs and resource utilization. However, existing…
In recent years, configuration problems have drawn tremendous attention because of their increasing prevalence and their big impact on system availability. We believe that many of these problems are attributable to today's configuration…
For many years, the distributed systems community has struggled to smooth the transition from local to remote computing. Transparency means concealing the complexities of distributed programming like remote locations, failures or scaling.…
In information retrieval systems, search parameters are optimized to ensure high effectiveness based on a set of past searches and these optimized parameters are then used as the system configuration for all subsequent queries. A better…
Current fog systems rely on centralized and strongly consistent services for configuration management originally designed for cloud systems. In the geo-distributed fog, such systems can exhibit high communication latency or become…
Serverless computing is an emerging cloud paradigm with serverless functions at its core. While serverless environments enable software developers to focus on developing applications without the need to actively manage the underlying…
Serverless computing is an emerging cloud computing paradigm that has been applied to various domains, including machine learning, scientific computing, video processing, etc. To develop serverless computing-based software applications…
Decentralized systems are a subset of distributed systems where multiple authorities control different components and no authority is fully trusted by all. This implies that any component in a decentralized system is potentially…
In this thesis we consider the problem of information hiding in the scenarios of interactive systems, statistical disclosure control, and refinement of specifications. We apply quantitative approaches to information flow in the first two…
We present algorithms to synthesize component-based systems that are safe and deadlock-free using priorities, which define stateless-precedence between enabled actions. Our core method combines the concept of fault-localization (using…
Firewall configuration is critical, yet often conducted manually with inevitable errors, leaving networks vulnerable to cyber attack [40]. The impact of misconfigured firewalls can be catastrophic in Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition…
Modern distributed storage systems come with aplethora of configurable parameters that controlmodule behavior and affect system performance. Default settings provided by developers are often suboptimal for specific user cases. Tuning…
