Reconfigurable optical networks have emerged as a promising technology to efficiently
serve the fast-growing traffic produced by the digital society. This paper provides a survey of …

Optical networks offer a wide range of benefits to the telecommunication sector worldwide
with their provision of higher bandwidth, which leads to faster data speed, longer …

This paper presents a systematic approach to identify and quantify the types of structures
featured by packet traces in communication networks. Our approach leverages an …

The recent line of research into topology design focuses on lowering network diameter.
Many low-diameter topologies such as Slim Fly or Jellyfish that substantially reduce cost …

This paper studies the design of self-adjusting datacenter networks whose physical topology
dynamically adapts to the workload, in an online and demand-aware manner. We propose …

Hybrid networks, ie, networks that leverage different means of communication, become ever
more widespread. To allow theoretical study of such networks,[Augustine et al., SODA'20] …

More and more networks are becoming reconfigurable: not just the routing can be
programmed, but the physical layer itself as well. Various technologies enable this …

ISP networks have become a critical infrastructure in our society. Traffic in these networks is
growing and is increasingly dominated by a small number of large CDNs connecting at …

New optical technologies offer the ability to reconfigure network topologies dynamically,
rather than setting them once and for all. This is true in both optical wide area networks …

Modern cloud applications has led to a huge increase in multicast flows, which is becoming
one of the primary communication patterns in nowadays datacenter networks. Emerging …
