The raising concerns of energy consumption and air pollution advance the development of electric vehicle technologies and promote the increased deployment of Electric Vehicles (EVs) towards electric transportation. The increasing number of EVs on the road network leads to a growing challenge of electricity management for the power grid to promptly supply electricity to EVs. In order to address this...
Explosion in Big Data has led to a surge in extremely large-scale Big Data analytics platforms, resulting in burgeoning energy costs. Big Data compute model mandates strong data-locality for computational performance, and moves computations to data. State-of-the-art cooling energy management techniques rely on thermal-aware computational job placement/migration and are inherently data-placement-agnostic...
Solutions to the cellular network bandwidth problem have been presented by the community such as usage of alternative wireless (e.g., 802.11 WiFi) network and peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing over a group of wireless devices. However, often the theoretical and simulation approaches for file sharing within multi-radio P2P groups hide the complexity of systems and networks in real scenarios such as heterogeneity...
In this paper we analyze and study the impact of cloudlets in interactive mobile cloud applications. To study the impact we propose the design of cloudlet network and service architectures. Our study focuses on file editing, video streaming and collaborative chatting which are representative enterprise application scenarios. Initial simulation results show the performance gains of using cloudlets...
Demand for 3D visualization is increasing in mobile devices as users have come to expect more realistic immersive experiences. However, limited networking and computing resources on mobile devices remain challenges. A solution is to have a proxy-based framework that offloads the burden of rendering computation from mobile devices to more powerful servers. We present the implementation of a framework...
This paper presents Eureka: a generic methodology of measuring the instantaneous (per second) bandwidth usage of networked games and applications in run time. Eureka starts with constructing a priority queue and sending low priority traffic through it. Then, the application under study is started with its packets marked as high priority. These packets therefore displace the previously existing low...
Network coding has been shown to be capable of greatly improving quality of service in P2P live streaming systems (e.g., IPTV). However, network coding is vulnerable to pollution attacks where malicious nodes inject into the network bogus data blocks that are combined with other legitimate blocks at downstream nodes, leading to incapability of decoding the original blocks and substantial degradation...
As Internet telephony systems continue to replace existing Public Switched Telephone Network systems, proxy servers running the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) will continue to grow in importance for Voice-over-IP deployments that use SIP for call signaling. Since the protection of the global telecommunications infrastructure is critical to people's everyday lives, ensuring the availability of SIP...
