hXDP: Efficient Software Packet Processing on FPGA NICs
Marco Spaziani Brunella, Giacomo Belocchi, Marco Bonola +7
FPGA accelerators on the NIC enable the offloading of expensive packet processing tasks from the CPU. However, FPGAs have limited resources that may need to be shared among diverse…
"Cellular Network Densification Increases Radio-Frequency Pollution": True or False?
Luca Chiaraviglio, Sara Turco, Giuseppe Bianchi +1
A very popular theory circulating among non-scientific communities claims that the massive deployment of Base Stations (BSs) over the territory, a.k.a. cellular network densificati…
Is It Safe Living in the Vicinity of Cellular Towers? Analysis of Long-Term Human EMF Exposure at Population Scale
Luca Chiaraviglio, Cristian Di Paolo, Giuseppe Bianchi +1
We focus on the ElectroMagnetic Field (EMF) exposure safety for people living in the vicinity of cellular towers. To this aim, we analyze a large dataset of long-term EMF measureme…
LOcAl DEcisions on Replicated States (LOADER) in programmable data planes: programming abstraction and experimental evaluation
German Sviridov, Marco Bonola, Angelo Tulumello +3
Programmable data planes recently emerged as a prominent innovation in Software Defined Networking (SDN), by permitting support of stateful flow processing functions over hardware…
Will the Proliferation of 5G Base Stations Increase the Radio-Frequency "Pollution"?
Luca Chiaraviglio, Giuseppe Bianchi, Nicola Blefari-Melazzi +1
A common concern among the population is that installing new 5G Base Stations (BSs) over a given geographic region may result in an uncontrollable increase of Radio-Frequency "Poll…
Capture Aware Sequential Waterfilling for LoraWAN Adaptive Data Rate
Giuseppe Bianchi, Francesca Cuomo, Domenico Garlisi +1
LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) is emerging as an attractive network infrastructure for ultra low power Internet of Things devices. Even if the technology itself is quite ma…
Adaptive mitigation of the Air-Time pressure in LoRa multi-gateway architectures
Francesca Cuomo, Manuel Campo, Enrico Bassetti +3
LoRa is a promising technology in the current Internet of Things market, which operates in un-licensed bands achieving long-range communications and with ultra power devices. In th…
Killing the Password and Preserving Privacy with Device-Centric and Attribute-based Authentication
Kostantinos Papadamou, Savvas Zannettou, Bogdan Chifor +9
Current authentication methods on the Web have serious weaknesses. First, services heavily rely on the traditional password paradigm, which diminishes the end-users' security and u…
