With the proliferation of network devices and rapid development in information technology, networks such as Internet of Things are increasing in size and becoming more complex with heterogeneous wired and wireless links. In such networks,…

In this paper, we introduce Traversal Learning (TL), a novel approach designed to address the problem of decreased quality encountered in popular distributed learning (DL) paradigms such as Federated Learning (FL), Split Learning (SL), and…

This paper describes a technique for inferring temporal-logic properties for sets of finite data streams. Such data streams arise in many domains, including server logs, program testing, and financial and marketing data; temporal-logic…

We consider the problem of learning classifiers for labeled data that has been distributed across several nodes. Our goal is to find a single classifier, with small approximation error, across all datasets while minimizing the communication…

Prototyping and implementing distributed algorithms, particularly those that address challenges related with fault-tolerance and dependability, is a time consuming task. This is, in part, due to the need of addressing low level aspects such…

Despite the proliferation of traffic filtering capabilities throughout the Internet, attackers continue to launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks to successfully overwhelm the victims with DDoS traffic. In this paper, we…

Peer to peer systems are the networks consisting of a group of nodes possible to be as wide as the Internet. These networks are required of evaluation mechanisms and distributed control and configurations, so each peer will be able to…

Federated learning is a privacy-focused approach towards machine learning where models are trained on client devices with locally available data and aggregated at a central server. However, the dependence on a single central server is…

The problem of total-order (uniform reliable) broadcast is fundamental in fault-tolerant distributed computing since it abstracts a broad set of problems requiring processes to uniformly deliver messages in the same order in which they were…

A novel approach is suggested for improving the accuracy of fault detection in distribution networks. This technique combines adaptive probability learning and waveform decomposition to optimize the similarity of features. Its objective is…

Security protocols are often found to be flawed after their deployment. We present an approach that aims at the neutralization or mitigation of the attacks to flawed protocols: it avoids the complete dismissal of the interested protocol and…

As one of the most successful and effective software testing techniques in recent years, fuzz testing has uncovered numerous bugs and vulnerabilities in modern software, including network protocol software. In contrast to other fuzzing…

Failure detection protocols---a fundamental building block for crafting fault-tolerant distributed systems---are in many cases described by their authors making use of informal pseudo-codes of their conception. Often these pseudo-codes use…

Fog computing extends the cloud computing paradigm by allocating substantial portions of computations and services towards the edge of a network, and is, therefore, particularly suitable for large-scale, geo-distributed, and data-intensive…

In this paper we consider a network of processors aiming at cooperatively solving linear programming problems subject to uncertainty. Each node only knows a common cost function and its local uncertain constraint set. We propose a…

More than two decades ago, combinatorial topology was shown to be useful for analyzing distributed fault-tolerant algorithms in shared memory systems and in message passing systems. In this work, we show that combinatorial topology can also…

The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its integration with backbone networks have heightened the risk of security breaches. Traditional centralized approaches to anomaly detection, which require transferring large volumes…

Today's distributed network control planes support multiple routing protocols, filtering mechanisms, and route selection policies. These protocols operate at different layers, e.g. BGP operates at the EGP layer, OSPF at the IGP layer, and…

IoT systems complexity and susceptibility to failures pose significant challenges in ensuring their reliable operation Failures can be internally generated or caused by external factors impacting both the systems correctness and its…

Failures in optical network backbone can lead to major disruption of internet data traffic. Hence, minimizing such failures is of paramount importance for the network operators. Even better, if the network failures can be predicted and…
