Redundancy Management for Fast Service (Rates) in Edge Computing Systems

Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin

Edge computing operates between the cloud and end users and strives to provide low-latency computing services for simultaneous users. Redundant use of multiple edge nodes can reduc…

Covert, Low-Delay, Coded Message Passing in Mobile (IoT) Networks

Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin

We introduce a gossip-like protocol for covert message passing between Alice and Bob as they move in an area watched over by a warden Willie. The area hosts a multitude of Internet…

Distributed Storage Allocations for Optimal Service Rates

Pei Peng, Moslem Noori, Emina Soljanin

Redundant storage maintains the performance of distributed systems under various forms of uncertainty. This paper considers the uncertainty in node access and download service. We…

Diversity/Parallelism Trade-off in Distributed Systems with Redundancy

Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin, Philip Whiting

As numerous machine learning and other algorithms increase in complexity and data requirements, distributed computing becomes necessary to satisfy the growing computational and sto…

Straggling for Covert Message Passing on Complete Graphs

Pei Peng, Nikolas Melissaris, Emina Soljanin +3

We introduce a model for mobile, multi-agent information transfer that increases the communication covertness through a protocol which also increases the information transfer delay…

On Distributed Storage Allocations of Large Files for Maximum Service Rate

Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin

Allocation of (redundant) file chunks throughout a distributed storage system affects important performance metrics such as the probability of file recovery, data download time, or…

Effective Straggler Mitigation: Which Clones Should Attack and When?

Mehmet Fatih Aktas, Pei Peng, Emina Soljanin

Redundancy for straggler mitigation, originally in data download and more recently in distributed computing context, has been shown to be effective both in theory and practice. Ana…

A Maxwell demon model connecting information and thermodynamics

Peiyan Peng, Changkui Duan

In the past decade several theoretical Maxwell's demon models have been proposed exhibiting effects such as refrigerating, doing work at the cost of information, and some experimen…
