Deficit Round-Robin: A Second Network Calculus Analysis

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Seyed Mohammadhossein Tabatabaee

Deficit Round-Robin (DRR) is a widespread scheduling algorithm that provides fair queueing with variable-length packets. Bounds on worst-case delays obtained with DRR were found by Boyer et al. They used a rigorous network calculus approach and characteriz ...

A Computational Method for Identifying the Optimum Buffer Size in the Era of Zero Defect Manufacturing

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos

Decreasing defects, waste time, meeting customer demand and being adaptable are the goals of a Zero Defect Manufacturing (ZDM) strategy. Scheduling is an important tool to perform that. It should take in account buffer size allocation. In this study, a met ...

AGGREGATHOR: Byzantine Machine Learning via Robust Gradient Aggregation

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis, Georgios Damaskinos

We present AGGREGATHOR, a framework that implements state-of-the-art robust (Byzantine-resilient) distributed stochastic gradient descent. Following the standard parameter server model, we assume that a minority of worker machines can be controlled by an a ...

Causal Consistency and Latency Optimality: Friend or Foe? [Extended Version]

Rachid Guerraoui, Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Jingjing Wang

Causal consistency is an attractive consistency model for geo-replicated data stores. It is provably the strongest model that tolerates network partitions. It avoids the long latencies associated with strong consistency, and, especially when using read-onl ...

Network utility maximization for delay-sensitive applications in unknown communication settings

Stefano D'Aronco

In the last decades the Internet traffic has greatly evolved. The advent of new Internet services and applications has, in fact, led to a significant growth of the amount of data transmitted, as well as to a transformation of the data type. As a matter of ...

MPTCP Is Not Pareto-Optimal: Performance Issues and a Possible Solution

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ramin Khalili, Miroslav Popovic, Nicolas Gabriel Gast

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has been proposed recently as a mechanism for transparently supporting multiple connections to the application layer. It is under discussion at the IETF. We nevertheless demonstrate that the current MPTCP suffers from two problems: P1 ...

Empirical Performance Evaluation of Data Dissemination Mechanisms for Spot Applications

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Alexandre Fawal, Adel Aziz

We evaluate, by measurements on a real testbed, the performance of networking services required for spot applications. We call a “spot application” an application for smartphones (such as “Ad-hoc Flash Sales”) that disseminates information in a local neigh ...

Can a Metal Surface Repel Electric Charges?

Primoz Rebernik Ribic

We show that the interaction between a surface and a charge packet moving parallel to it can become repulsive above a critical relativistic energy. We find that this is true for a lossless dielectric surface and also for a Drude metallic surface-in apparen ...

Models of 802.11 Multi-Hop Networks: Theoretical Insights and Experimental Validation

Patrick Thiran, Olivier Dousse, Adel Aziz, Mathilde Durvy

Wireless Multi-Hop CSMA/CA Networks are challenging to analyze. On the one hand, their dynamics are complex and rather subtle effects may severely affect their performance. Yet, understanding these effects is critical to operate upper layer protocols, such ...

Castor: Scalable Secure Routing for Ad Hoc Networks

Karl Aberer, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Zoran Despotovic, Wojciech Galuba, Marcin Poturalski

Wireless ad hoc networks are inherently vulnerable, as any node can disrupt the communication of potentially any other node in the network. Many solutions to this problem have been proposed. In this paper, we take a fresh and comprehensive approach that ad ...

Performance Evaluation of Impulse Radio UWB Networks using Common or Private Acquisition Preambles

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

For impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) networks without global synchronization, the first step for correct packet reception is packet detection and timing acquisition: Before recovering the payload of the packet, the destination must detect that the pa ...

One Bit Is Enough: a Framework for Deploying Explicit Feedback Congestion Control Protocols

Dejan Kostic, Nedeljko Vasic

Since the bandwidth-delay products of Internet links keep increasing, issues with TCP's convergence time, throughput, and amount of queuing in these environments are becoming more pressing. As we move toward the next-generation Internet, it is important to ...

Delay-based overlay construction in P2P video broadcast

Pascal Frossard

We consider streaming video content over an overlay network of peer nodes. Each of the nodes employs a mesh-pull mechanism to organize the download of data units from its neighbours. We propose a novel algorithm for constructing the distribution overlay, w ...

Real-time interaction over the Internet : quality of service and end-to-end adaptation for remote experimentation

Christophe Salzmann

This dissertation studied real-time interaction over the Internet (RTI2) in the context of remote experimentation where there is typically a person at the client side interacting with physical equipments at the server side. Remote experimentations of mecha ...
