A proposal to improve routing security---Route Origin Authorization (ROA)---has been standardized. A ROA specifies which network is allowed to announce a set of Internet destinations. While some networks now specify ROAs, little is known…

Recently, code reuse attacks (CRAs), such as return-oriented programming (ROP) and jump-oriented programming (JOP), have emerged as a new class of ingenious security threatens. Attackers can utilize CRAs to hijack the control flow of…

We investigate cooperative wireless relay networks in which the nodes can help each other in data transmission. We study different coding strategies in the single-source single-destination network with many relay nodes. Given the myriad of…

In recent cyber attacks, credential theft has emerged as one of the primary vectors of gaining entry into the system. Once attacker(s) have a foothold in the system, they use various techniques including token manipulation to elevate the…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of wireless networks, achieving enhanced throughput with low latency for data transmission is crucial for future communication systems. While low complexity OSPF-type solutions have shown effectiveness in…

Unsourced random access (URA) has emerged as a promising paradigm for enabling massive connectivity in Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks. However, since URA transmissions do not contain device identifiers, the receiver may not associate…

In this work, an eavesdropping-aware routing and spectrum allocation approach is proposed utilizing network coding (NC) in elastic optical networks (EONs). To provide physical layer security in EONs and secure the confidential connections…

The radio-frequency (RF) technology is a scalable solution for the backhaul planning. However, its performance is limited in terms of data rate and latency. Free Space Optical (FSO) backhaul, on the other hand, offers a higher data rate but…

ROI (Region of Interest) video selective encryption based on H.265/HEVC is a technology that protects the sensitive regions of videos by perturbing the syntax elements associated with target areas. However, existing methods typically adopt…

The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is a fundamental combinatorial optimization challenge with broad applications in logistics and transportation. In this work, we present a quantum-assisted framework that integrates the Quantum Approximate…

We quantify the threat of network adversaries to inducing \emph{network overload} through \emph{routing attacks}, where a subset of network nodes are hijacked by an adversary. We develop routing attacks on the hijacked nodes for two…

Random Access (RA) Medium Access (MAC) protocols are simple and effective when the nature of the traffic is unpredictable and random. In the following paper, a novel RA protocol called Enhanced Contention Resolution ALOHA (ECRA) is…

In this paper, a novel uncoordinated random access (URA) protocol is presented to address the pressing demand for massive connectivity with low access latency in future massive machine type communication (mMTC) scenarios. The proposed URA…

Source Routing, currently facilitated by Segment Routing (SR), enables precise control of forwarding paths by specifying detours (or segments) to deviate IP packets along routes with advanced properties beyond typical shortest IGP paths.…

In complex systems (e.g., communication, transportation, and biological networks), high robustness ensures sustained functionality and stability even when resisting attacks. However, the inherent structure complexity and the…

A communication link aided by a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) is studied, in which the transmitter can control the state of the RIS via a finite-rate control link. Prior work mostly assumed a fixed RIS configuration irrespective…

Routing and Spectrum Assignment (RSA) represents a significant challenge within Elastic Optical Networks (EONs), particularly in dynamic traffic scenarios where the network undergoes continuous changes. Integrating multiple modulation…

Compressed bitmap indexes are used in databases and search engines. Many bitmap compression techniques have been proposed, almost all relying primarily on run-length encoding (RLE). However, on unsorted data, we can get superior performance…

We introduce a XOR-based source routing (XSR) scheme as a novel approach to enable fast forwarding and low-latency communications. XSR uses linear encoding operation to both 1)~build the path labels of unicast and multicast data transfers;…
