Named Data Networking (NDN), as one of the candidates for a future Internet, has the potential to overcome many of the current Internet's difficulties (e.g., security, mobility, multicasting, etc.). However, there are also many open problems to be taken ...

In this work, we propose a methodology based on the alias resolution process to demonstrate that the IP level view of the route provided by traceroute may be a poor representation of the real router-level route followed by the traffic. More precisely, ...

To cope with the rapid increase in mobile data traffic volume, mobile network operators can leverage the diversity in traffic patterns to improve network performance. In this paper, we show how can mobile network operators leverage diversity across ...

Crowdsourcing platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk and Google Consumer Surveys can profile users based on their inputs to online surveys. In this work we first demonstrate how easily user privacy can be compromised by collating information from ...

The increasing of the mobile Internet traffic generated in cellular networks has challenged Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to improve the management of their resources' usage, e.g. during hours of peak demand. Time-based pricing schemes could be used ...

In the mobile cloud (e.g. vehicular cloud), users collaborate and share images amongst different screen sizes. Similar images do not share overlapping blocks, thus deduplication is difficult if not near impossible even when two images are slightly ...

Virtual Network Embedding (VNE) algorithms are used to find the best embedding of multiple Virtual Networks (VNs) with respect to a performance metric such as network utilization. However, most algorithms assume that the demands of the VNs are static ...

Interdomain routing has long been primed for an overhaul. Designed for a previous era and since dragged into today's networks through complex configurations, little progress has been made on aligning interdomain routing capabilities with network ...

Over the last several years, the deployment of multi-core routers has grown rapidly. However, big data transfers are not leveraging the powerful multi-core routers to the extent possible, particularly in the key function of routing. Our main goal is to ...

Content servers have become burdened by the transfer of large content sets such as high-definition video and music. To mitigate this problem, we propose a Mapping Server with Cache-location Resolution with Cache Suppression (MSCR/CS), which suppresses ...

We propose a content and buffer aware Long Term Evolution (LTE) downlink scheduler for allocating radio resources to multiple users requesting Scalable Video Coding (SVC) encoded videos from a server. The scheduler adaptively controls the video quality ...

Content-Centric Networks (CCNs) promise to deliver content in a better way than today's Internet. In CCNs, efficient content delivery services can be achieved by using cache storage on routers. However, an effective caching scheme in CCNs is never ...

Content-Centric Networking (CCN) is a promising candidate for Future Internet architecture. This pulling-based networking scheme has a weakness about live streaming due to their request method, which means every segment of contents should be requested ...

We propose a passive methodology to estimate the queueing delay incurred by TCP traffic, and additionally leverage DPI classification to breakdown the delay across different applications. Ultimately, we correlate the queueing delay to the performance ...

Enterprises running critical applications in the cloud expect their providers to offer good, predictable performance. However, existing TCP monitoring tools either run offline, preventing real-time adaptation to performance problems, or require ...

Transient performance anomalies when accessing websites can be hard to replicate and make it difficult to detect and remedy their root causes. We propose a tool which passively monitors browser behavior and network traffic, while actively probing the ...

High performance data centers use virtualization technique which enables each physical server machine to host multiple virtual machines (VMs) to achieve highly efficient resource utilization. In this paper, we propose a measurement-based approach for ...
