The rapid expansion of global cloud wide-area networks (WANs) has posed a challenge for commercial optimization engines to efficiently solve network traffic engineering (TE) proble…
Automatic Curriculum Generation for Learning Adaptation in Networking
Zhengxu Xia, Yajie Zhou, Francis Y. Yan +1
As deep reinforcement learning (RL) showcases its strengths in networking and systems, its pitfalls also come to the public's attention--when trained to handle a wide range of netw…
Implementing BOLA-BASIC on Puffer: Lessons for the use of SSIM in ABR logic
Emily Marx, Francis Y. Yan, Keith Winstein
One ABR algorithm implemented on Puffer is BOLA-BASIC, the simplest variant of BOLA. BOLA finds wide use in industry, notably in the MPEG-DASH reference player used as the basis fo…
Learning in situ: a randomized experiment in video streaming
Francis Y. Yan, Hudson Ayers, Chenzhi Zhu +5
We describe the results of a randomized controlled trial of video-streaming algorithms for bitrate selection and network prediction. Over the last eight months, we have streamed 14…
