Abstract. Workload characterization is important for understanding how systems and services are used in practice and to help identify design improvements. To better understand the ...
Abstract. This paper presents a first look at long-term delay measurements from data connections in 3 Norwegian 3G Networks. We have performed active measurements for more than 6 ...

Empirical studies on link blacklisting show that the delivery rate is very sensitive to the calibration of the blacklisting threshold. If the calibration is too restrictive (the th...

Abstract. Some have argued that the dichotomy between high-performance operation and low resource utilization is false – an artifact that will soon succumb to Moore’s Law and c...

Datacenter workload modeling has become a necessity in recent years due to the emergence of large-scale applications and cloud data-stores, whose implementation remains largely un...
—Computer systems often reach a point at which the relative cost to increase some tunable parameter is no longer worth the corresponding performance benefit. These “knees” t...

—Developing secure wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a complex process that involves careful design of attack test cases and security countermeasures, as well as meaningful eval...
Abstract—Internet topology generation involves producing synthetic network topologies that imitate the characteristics of the Internet. Although the accuracy of newly developed n...
—Virtualization offers the potential for cost-effective service provisioning. For service providers who make significant investments in new virtualized data centers in support of...
—We consider the problem of inferring link loss rates using passive measurements. Prior inference approaches are mainly built on the time correlation nature of packet losses. How...
