Abstract--The continuously increasing complexity of communication networks and the increasing diversity and unpredictability of traffic demand has led to a consensus view that the ...
Today's data networks are surprisingly fragile and difficult to manage. We argue that the root of these problems lies in the complexity of the control and management planes--...
—This paper describes a novel framework, called Distributed Partial Information Management (or DPIM). It addresses several major challenges in achieving efficient shared path pr...
Abstract. We propose a general methodology based on robust optimization to address the problem of optimally controlling a supply chain subject to stochastic demand in discrete time...
—We investigate the design of a clean-slate control and nt plane for data networks using the abstraction of 4D architecture, utilizing and extending 4D’s concept of logically c...
