Modern applications for distributed publish/subscribe systems often require stream aggregation capabilities along with rich data filtering. When compared to other distributed systems, aggregation in pub/sub differentiates itself as a complex problem which involves dynamic dissemination paths that are difficult to predict and optimize for a priori, temporal fluctuations in publication rates, and the mixed presence…

In this study, a new method was developed to automate vehicles. Numerous vehicle control systems have been realized for electronic steering, driving, and braking. Higher-standard vehicle control systems have increased costs. This study focused on cloud vehicle control using roadside sensors and computers. If a high-standard vehicle control system can be realized by using vehicles…

Nowadays an extensive attention is given to UAVs and their applications. One applications category can be underserved by hybrid systems composed from UAV and ground WSN. UAV can gather data from ground WSN which, at its turn could be initially deployed by the UAV itself. Ground nodes are limited in battery life, therefore, an efficient communication algorithm…

We are interested in understanding the neural correlates of attentional processes using first principles. Here we apply a recently developed first principles approach that uses transmitted information in bits per joule to quantify the energy efficiency of information transmission for an inter-spike-interval (ISI) code that can be modulated by means of the synchrony in the…

SDN has been envisioned as the next generation network paradigm by decoupling control plane and data plane, such that network management and optimization can be conducted in a centralized manner using global network information. In this article, we study how to apply SDN concept to a wireless meshnetwork that has been widely adopted by various applications. We first propose a novel architecture…

Integrated orchestration of the IP+optical transport network has been well studied in recent years and has become a realistic trend in telecommunication network deployments. OpenFlow-based softwaredefined network architecture is among the emerging and intensively investigated unified control plane solutions. Numerous previous works have focused on enabling optical networks to support the OpenFlow control plane, but mostly discussed from the single controller’s point of view.…

The rise of software-defined networks in recent years has allowed unprecedented agility in networkconfiguration and orchestration. As physical links and configurations become virtualised, this has created many opportunities for dynamic and transparent deployment of services. This however, opens up a potential attack surface for new forms of attack. Thus, with the combination of SDN elements abstracting their administration to network administrators…

Nowadays energy consumption is one of the most significant aspects in Internet operations, where multi-level routing is widely used. In a typical hierarchical router cache structure, the upper level storage serves as a cache for the lower level, which forms a distributed multi-level cache system. In the past two decades, several classic LRU-based multi-level cache…

5G communication networks enable the steering and control of Internet of Things and, therefore, require extremely low latency communications referred to as the tactile Internet. In this paper, we show that the massive use of network coding throughout the network significantly improves latency and reduces the frequency of packet re-transmission. Thus, an architecture built around network coding may be a feasible road towards…

Software Defined Networks (SDNs) separate the control and data planes of devices to expedite the deployment, configuration and evolution of networks. In this respect, controllers play a key role. In particular, they control the behavior of switches and must do so quickly. This, however, may be at odds with the goal of reducing the energy consumption of a SDN…
