BM compression is a straightforward and operable way to reduce buffer message length as well as to improve system performance. In this paper, we thoroughly discuss the principles and protocol progress of different compression schemes, and…
Federated Learning (FL) is an emerging framework for distributed processing of large data volumes by edge devices subject to limited communication bandwidths, heterogeneity in data distributions and computational resources, as well as…
Flood is a natural phenomenon that causes severe environmental damage and destruction in smart cities. After a flood, topographic, geological, and living conditions change. As a result, the previous information regarding the environment is…
In wireless systems, neighbor discovery (ND) is a fundamental building block: determining which devices are within direct radio communication is an enabler for networking protocols and a wide range of applications. To thwart abuse of ND and…
We investigate the problem of private read update write (PRUW) in relation to private federated submodel learning (FSL), where a machine learning model is divided into multiple submodels based on the different types of data used to train…
TensorFlow is an interface for expressing machine learning algorithms, and an implementation for executing such algorithms. A computation expressed using TensorFlow can be executed with little or no change on a wide variety of heterogeneous…
Reliable communication is a fundamental distributed communication abstraction that allows any two nodes of a network to communicate with each other. It is necessary for more powerful communication primitives, such as broadcast and…
Social recommendation has emerged as a powerful approach to enhance personalized recommendations by leveraging the social connections among users, such as following and friend relations observed in online social platforms. The fundamental…
We propose a protocol for verifiable remote voting with paper assurance. It is intended to augment existing postal voting procedures, allowing a ballot to be electronically constructed, printed on paper, then returned in the post. It allows…
An increasing number of scientific applications rely on stream processing for generating timely insights from data feeds of scientific instruments, simulations, and Internet-of-Thing (IoT) sensors. The development of streaming applications…
Broadcast networks allow one to model networks of identical nodes communicating through message broadcasts. Their parameterized verification aims at proving a property holds for any number of nodes, under any communication topology, and on…
Fault tolerance is critical for distributed stream processing systems, yet achieving error-free fault tolerance often incurs substantial performance overhead. We present AF-Stream, a distributed stream processing system that addresses the…
Randomized rumor spreading is a classical protocol to disseminate information across a network. At SODA 2008, a quasirandom version of this protocol was proposed and competitive bounds for its run-time were proven. This prompts the…
Probabilistic bisimulation is a fundamental notion of process equivalence for probabilistic systems. Among others, it has important applications including formalizing the anonymity property of several communication protocols. There is a lot…
Subgraphs of a larger global graph may be distributed across multiple devices, and only locally accessible due to privacy restrictions, although there may be links between subgraphs. Recently proposed subgraph Federated Learning (FL)…
The feasibility of physical-layer-based security approaches for wireless communications in the presence of one or more eavesdroppers is hampered by channel conditions. In this paper, cooperation is investigated as an approach to overcome…
This work considers distributed sensing and transmission of sporadic random samples. Lower bounds are derived for the reconstruction error of a single normally or uniformly-distributed finite-dimensional vector imperfectly measured by a…
We study a gossip protocol called forwarding without repeating (FWR). The objective is to spread multiple rumors over a graph as efficiently as possible. FWR accomplishes this by having nodes record which messages they have forwarded to…
In the first part of the paper, we have studied the computational privacy risks in distributed computing protocols against local or global dynamics eavesdroppers, and proposed a Privacy-Preserving-Summation-Consistent (PPSC) mechanism as a…
Personalization in Federated Learning (FL) aims to modify a collaboratively trained global model according to each client. Current approaches to personalization in FL are at a coarse granularity, i.e. all the input instances of a client use…
