Futuristic integrated space and terrestrial networks (ISTN) not only hold new opportunities
for pervasive, low-latency Internet services, but also face new challenges caused by satellite …

In SDN-based networks, contextual understanding of network behaviour and safe execution
of operational decisions are important as part of the network management process. Digital …

Currently, one of the simplest and most effective ways for people to gain an in-depth
understanding of computer networks is through hands-on practice and experimentation on …

The Internet architecture has been undergoing a significant refactoring, where the past
preeminence of transit providers has been replaced by content providers, which have a …

Virtualization and emulation have become worthy approaches to save significant amounts of
money related to physical resource acquisition expenditures. In light of this, the development …

Data centre based cloud computing has revolutionised the way businesses use computing
infrastructure. Instead of building their own data centres, companies rent computing …

In this paper we challenge the common evaluation practices used in Virtual Machine (VM)
consolidation, such as simulation and small testbeds, which fail to capture the fundamental …

The philosophy of software-defined networking (SDN) has introduced new challenges in
network system management. In contrast to traditional network devices that contained both …

Large-scale distributed systems are becoming more widespread and, at the same time, their
sizes grow day by day. In this type of systems, the adoption of blockchains is gaining …

We describe a platform that uses temporally integrated co-simulation of emulated devices
and simulation of networks that connect them, for activities such as performance evaluation …
