Bridge: Optimizing Collective Communication Schedules in Reconfigurable Networks with Reusable Subrings
Anton Juerss, Stefan Schmid
Optical circuit-switched networks have emerged as an appealing alternative to electrical fabrics as they can reconfigure the network topology at runtime, reducing communication cos…

The Carrier Pigeon Internet Protocol: An Algorithmic (and Lighthearted) Perspective
Matthias Bentert, Shay Kutten, Darya Melnyk +2
The theoretical model behind the pigeon post as a link layer in a communication network was introduced by Shannon (under the guise of studying One-Time Pads for cryptography). That…

Perfect Network Resilience in Polynomial Time
Matthias Bentert, Stefan Schmid
Modern communication networks support local fast rerouting mechanisms to quickly react to link failures: nodes store a set of conditional rerouting rules which define how to forwar…
