Diffusing Your Mobile Apps: Extending In-Network Function Virtualization to Mobile Function Offloading
Mario Almeida, Liang Wang, Jeremy Blackburn +2
Motivated by the huge disparity between the limited battery capacity of user devices and the ever-growing energy demands of modern mobile apps, we propose INFv. It is the first off…
An in-depth characterisation of Bots and Humans on Twitter
Zafar Gilani, Reza Farahbakhsh, Gareth Tyson +2
Recent research has shown a substantial active presence of bots in online social networks (OSNs). In this paper we utilise our past work on studying bots (Stweeler) to comparativel…
I(FIB)F: Iterated Bloom Filters for Routing in Named Data Networks
Cristina Muñoz, Liang Wang, Eduardo Solana +1
Named Data Networks provide a clean-slate redesign of the Future Internet for efficient content distribution. Because Internet of Things are expected to compose a significant part…
C3PO: Computation Congestion Control (PrOactive) - an algorithm for dynamic diffusion of ephemeral in-network services
Liang Wang, Mario Almeida, Jeremy Blackburn +1
There is an obvious trend that more and more data and computation are migrating into networks nowadays. Combining mature virtualization technologies with service-centric net- worki…
Bandwidth-aware Service Placement in Community Network Clouds
Mennan Selimi, Llorenc Cerda-Alabern, Liang Wang +3
Seamless computing and service sharing in community networks have been gaining momentum due to the emerging technology of community network micro-clouds (CNMCs). However, running s…
Approximate Networking for Global Access to the Internet for All (GAIA)
Junaid Qadir, Arjuna Sathiaseelan, Liang Wang +1
Decades of experience have shown that there is no single one-size-fits-all solution that can be used to provision Internet globally and that invariably there are tradeoffs in the d…
You Really Need A Good Ruler to Measure Caching Performance in Information-Centric Networks
Liang Wang, Jussi Kangasharju, Jon Crowcroft
Information-centric networks are an interesting new paradigm for distributing content on the Internet. They bring up many research challenges, such as addressing content by name, s…
"Resource Pooling" for Wireless Networks: Solutions for the Developing World
Junaid Qadir, Arjuna Sathiaseelan, Liang Wang +1
We live in a world in which there is a great disparity between the lives of the rich and the poor. Technology offers great promise in bridging this gap. In particular, wireless tec…
XBF: Scaling up Bloom-filter-based Source Routing
Markku Antikainen, Liang Wang, Dirk Trossen +1
A well known drawback of IP-multicast is that it requires per-group state to be stored in the routers. Bloom-filter based source-routed multicast remedies this problem by moving th…
Taming Limits with Approximate Networking
Junaid Qadir, Arjuna Sathiaseelan, Liang Wang +1
Internet is the linchpin of modern society, which the various threads of modern life weave around. But being a part of the bigger energy-guzzling industrial economy, it is vulnerab…
Fast k-NN search
Ville Hyvönen, Teemu Pitkänen, Sotiris Tasoulis +5
Efficient index structures for fast approximate nearest neighbor queries are required in many applications such as recommendation systems. In high-dimensional spaces, many conventi…
Renewable Energy-Aware Information-Centric Networking
Julien Mineraud, Liang Wang, Sasitharan Balasubramaniam +1
The ICT industry today is placed as one of the major consumers of energy, where recent reports have also shown that the industry is a major contributor to global carbon emissions.…
FairCache: Introducing Fairness to ICN Caching - Technical Report
Liang Wang, Gareth Tyson, Jussi Kangasharju +1
Information-centric networking extensively uses universal in-network caching. However, developing an efficient and fair collaborative caching algorithm for selfish caches is still…
Inference on the Network Evolution in BitTorrent Mainline DHT
Liang Wang, Jussi Kangasharju
Network size is a fundamental statistic for a peer-to-peer system but is generally considered to contain too little information to be useful. However, most existing work only consi…
Effects of Cooperation Policy and Network Topology on Performance of In-Network Caching
Liang Wang, Suzan Bayhan, Jussi Kangasharju
We model the cooperation policy with only two parameters -- search radius and number of copies in the network . These two parameters represent the range of cooperatio…
Experimenting with BitTorrent on a Cluster: A Good or a Bad Idea?
Liang Wang, Jussi Kangasharju
Evaluation of large-scale network systems and applications is usually done in one of three ways: simulations, real deployment on Internet, or on an emulated network testbed such as…
LiteLab: Efficient Large-scale Network Experiments
Liang Wang, Jussi Kangasharju
Large-scale network experiments is a challenging problem. Simulations, emulations, and real-world testbeds all have their advantages and disadvantages. In this paper we present Lit…
In-Network Caching vs. Redundancy Elimination
Liang Wang, Walter Wong, Jussi Kangasharju
Network-level Redundancy Elimination (RE) techniques have been proposed to reduce the amount of traffic in the Internet. and the costs of the WAN access in the Internet. RE middleb…
