Wi-Fi Direct is a popular wireless technology which is integrated in most of today's smartphones and tablets. This technology allows a set of devices to [...]

Abstract: As computing services are increasingly cloud-based, corporations are investing in cloud-based security measures. The Security-as-a-Service (SECaaS) paradigm allows customers to outsource security to the [...]

After many years of constant evolution, the Internet has approached a historic inflection point where mobile platforms, applications and services are poised to replace the [...]

Abstract: In many applications such as cloud computing, managing server farm resources etc. an incoming task or job has to be matched with an appropriate [...]

We present a strategic investment framework for mobile TV delivery by two potential operators: broadcaster (DVB) and cellular (MNO), in the presence of demand and [...]

Although symmetric ciphers may provide strong computational security, a key leakage makes the encrypted data vulnerable. In a distributed storage environment, reinforcement of data protection [...]

Abstract: The talk starts by presenting the current approaches for a QoE-aware service management in the Internet, i.e., application oriented or network management, which are [...]

This talk will present the FUTEBOL project, which is a joint EU-Brazilproject focused on the creation of experimental testbeds. Theproject’s goal is to allow the [...]

PEERING is a testbed that provides safe and easy access for researchers to the Internet's BGP routing system, enabling and inspiring transformational research. Traditionally, the [...]

Most unwritten languages today have no known grammar, and are rather governed by "unspoken rules". Similarly, we think that the young discipline of networking is [...]

The notion of performance seems crucial to many fields of science and engineering. Some scientists are concerned with the performance of algorithms or computing hardware, [...]

The tolerance to faults and Byzantine behaviors has a long tradition in distributed computing. Now, more than ever, fault-tolerant and Byzantine tolerant distributed computing finds [...]

Connected devices, as key constituent elements of the Internet of Things (IoT), are flooding our real world environment. This digital wave paves the way for [...]

Presentation du programme IRT SystemX qui comprend les thématiques Cybersécurité et évolutionsdes architectures réseaux.

Identifying causal (rather than merely correlative)relationships in physical systems is a difficult task, particularly ifit is not feasible to perform controlled experiments. Granger'snotion of causality [...]

In a competitive setting, we consider the problem faced by a firm that makes decisions concerning both the location and service levels of its facilities, [...]

Temporal collective profiles generated by mobile network users can be used to predict network usage, which in turn can be used to improve the performance [...]

Understanding network health is essential to improving Internet reliability. For instance, detecting disruptions in peer and provider networks identifies fixable connectivity problems. Currently this task [...]

Community detection is a fundamental problem in the field of graph mining. The objective is to find densely connected clusters of nodes, so-called communities, possibly [...]

Recently we are in the middle of structural changes toward software-defined ICT infrastructure, which attempts to transform the existing silo-based infrastructure into futuristic composable one by integrating [...]

Netflix, YouTube, and the like, are now the dominant sources of traffic on the Internet. Recent studies observe that competing adaptive video streams generate flows [...]

We have examined maximum vertex coloring of random geometric graphs, in an arbitrary but fixed dimension, with a constant number of colors, in a recent [...]

The Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. Uses [...]

We consider a scenario where an Internet Service Provider (ISP) serves users that choose digital content among M Content Providers (CP). In the status quo, [...]

Bootstrap percolation is a well-known activation process in a graph,in which a node becomes active when it has at least $r$ active neighbors.Such process, originally [...]

Abstract: The Web is the largest public big data repository that humankind hascreated. In this overwhelming data ocean, we need to be aware of thequality [...]
