We propose a router-based technique to mitigate the stealthy reduction of quality (RoQ) attacks at the routers in the Internet. The RoQ attacks have been shown to impair the QoS s...
— Current computing systems depend on adaptation mechanisms to ensure that they remain in quiescent operating regions. These regions are often defined using efficiency, fairnes...

—One key adaptation mechanism often deployed in networking and computing systems is dynamic load balancing. The goal from employing dynamic load balancers is to ensure that the o...

Abstract - The RoQ (Reduction-of-Quality) attacks are lowrate DDoS attacks that degrade the QoS to end systems stealthily but not to deny the services completely. These attacks are...
Abstract— Current computing systems employ different mechanisms to deal with overload conditions. Of those widely deployed are content adaptation mechanisms whereby the quality l...
