DiffPerf: Towards Performance Differentiation and Optimization with SDN Implementation
Walid Aljoby, Xin Wang, Dinil Mon Divakaran +2
Continuing the current trend, Internet traffic is expected to grow significantly over the coming years, with video traffic consuming the biggest share. On the one hand, this growth…
Zero-Rating and Net Neutrality: Who Wins, Who Loses?
Niloofar Bayat, Richard Ma, Vishal Misra +1
An objective of network neutrality is that the design of regulations for the Internet will ensure that it remains a public, open platform where innovations can thrive. While there…
On SDN-Enabled Online and Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation for Stream Analytics
Walid Aljoby, Xin Wang, Tom Z. J. Fu +1
Data communication in cloud-based distributed stream data analytics often involves a collection of parallel and pipelined TCP flows. As the standard TCP congestion control mechanis…
Optimizing Bloom Filter: Challenges, Solutions, and Comparisons
Lailong Luo, Deke Guo, Richard T. B. Ma +2
Bloom filter (BF) has been widely used to support membership query, i.e., to judge whether a given element x is a member of a given set S or not. Recent years have seen a flourish…
Paid Peering, Settlement-Free Peering, or Both?
Xin Wang, Yinlong Xu, Richard T. B. Ma
With the rapid growth of congestion-sensitive and data-intensive applications, traditional settlement-free peering agreements with best-effort delivery often do not meet the QoS re…
Elasticutor: Rapid Elasticity for Realtime Stateful Stream Processing
Li Wang, Tom Z. J. Fu, Richard T. B. Ma +2
Elasticity is highly desirable for stream processing systems to guarantee low latency against workload dynamics, such as surges in data arrival rate and fluctuations in data distri…
On Optimal Two-Sided Pricing of Congested Networks
Xin Wang, Richard T. B. Ma, Yinlong Xu
Traditionally, Internet Access Providers (APs) only charge end-users for Internet access services; however, to recoup infrastructure costs and increase revenues, some APs have rece…
On Optimal Service Differentiation in Congested Network Markets
Mao Zou, Richard T. B. Ma, Xin Wang +1
As Internet applications have become more diverse in recent years, users having heavy demand for online video services are more willing to pay higher prices for better services tha…
Monet: A User-oriented Behavior-based Malware Variants Detection System for Android
Mingshen Sun, Xiaolei Li, John C. S. Lui +2
Android, the most popular mobile OS, has around 78% of the mobile market share. Due to its popularity, it attracts many malware attacks. In fact, people have discovered around one…
The Role of Data Cap in Optimal Two-part Network Pricing
Xin Wang, Richard T. B. Ma, Yinlong Xu
Internet services are traditionally priced at flat rates; however, many Internet service providers (ISPs) have recently shifted towards two-part tariffs where a data cap is imposed…
Fast generation of complex networks with underlying hyperbolic geometry
Moritz von Looz, Christian L. Staudt, Henning Meyerhenke +1
Complex networks have become increasingly popular for modeling various real-world phenomena. Realistic generative network models are important in this context as they avoid privacy…
Sampling Online Social Networks via Heterogeneous Statistics
Xin Wang, Richard T. B. Ma, Yinlong Xu +1
Most sampling techniques for online social networks (OSNs) are based on a particular sampling method on a single graph, which is referred to as a statistics. However, various reali…
MERA for Spin Chains with Continuously Varying Criticality
Jacob C. Bridgeman, Aroon O'Brien, Stephen D. Bartlett +1
We use the multiscale entanglement renormalisation ansatz (MERA) to numerically investigate three critical quantum spin chains with Z_2 x Z_2 on-site symmetry: a staggered XXZ mode…
Subsidization Competition: Vitalizing the Neutral Internet
Richard T. B. Ma
Unlike telephone operators, which pay termination fees to reach the users of another network, Internet Content Providers (CPs) do not pay the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) of u…
Selection Policy: Fighting against Filter Effect in Network of Caches
Saeid Montazeri Shahtouri, Richard T. B. Ma
Many Information Centric Networking (ICN) proposals use a network of caches to bring the contents closer to the consumers, reduce the load on producers and decrease the unnecessary…
On the Evolution of the Internet Economic Ecosystem
Richard T. B. Ma, John C. S. Lui, Vishal Misra
The evolution of the Internet has manifested itself in many ways: the traffic characteristics, the interconnection topologies and the business relationships among the autonomous co…
The Public Option: a Non-regulatory Alternative to Network Neutrality
Richard T. B. Ma, Vishal Misra
Network neutrality and the role of regulation on the Internet have been heavily debated in recent times. Amongst the various definitions of network neutrality, we focus on the one…
