Controlling Data Access Load in Distributed Systems
Mehmet Aktas, Emina Soljanin
Distributed systems store data objects redundantly to balance the data access load over multiple nodes. Load balancing performance depends mainly on 1) the level of storage redunda…
Theory vs. Practice in Modeling Edge Storage Systems
Oleg Kolosov, Mehmet Fatih Aktas, Emina Soljanin +1
Edge systems promise to bring data and computing closer to the users of time-critical applications. Specifically, edge storage systems are emerging as a new system paradigm, where…
QKD Based on Time-Entangled Photons and its Key-Rate Promise
Lara Dolecek, Emina Soljanin
For secure practical systems, quantum key distribution (QKD) must provide high key rates over long distances. Time-entanglement-based QKD promises to increase the secret key rate a…
The Service Rate Region Polytope
Gianira N. Alfarano, Altan B. Kilic, Alberto Ravagnani +1
We investigate the properties of a family of polytopes that naturally arise in connection with a problem in distributed data storage, namely service rate region polytopes. The serv…
Redundancy Management for Fast Service (Rates) in Edge Computing Systems
Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin
Edge computing operates between the cloud and end users and strives to provide low-latency computing services for simultaneous users. Redundant use of multiple edge nodes can reduc…
Time-Entanglement QKD: Secret Key Rates and Information Reconciliation Coding
Joseph J. Boutros, Emina Soljanin
In time entanglement-based quantum key distribution (QKD), Alice and Bob extract the raw key bits from the (identical) arrival times of entangled photon pairs by time-binning. Each…
