Internet was developed as a packet data network where users and data sources (server)
with specific IP addresses interacted over a pre-established communication channel. This …

To date, realistic ISP topologies have not been accessible to the research community,
leaving work that depends on topology on an uncertain footing. In this paper, we present …

Federated learning usually employs a client-server architecture where an orchestrator
iteratively aggregates model updates from remote clients and pushes them back a refined …

Intra-domain traffic engineering can significantly enhance the performance of large IP
backbone networks. Two important components of traffic engineering are understanding the …

We consider the problem of establishing minimum-cost multicast connections over coded
packet networks, ie, packet networks where the contents of outgoing packets are arbitrary …

Traffic engineering under OSPF routes along the shortest paths, which may cause network
congestion. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging network architecture which …

We argue for the development of efficient methods to update the data plane state of an SDN,
while maintaining desired consistency properties (eg, no packet should be dropped). We …

Researchers have shown that the Internet exhibits path inflation--end-to-end paths can be
significantly longer than necessary. We present a trace-driven study of 65 ISPs that …

Traffic matrices are required inputs for many IP network management tasks: for instance,
capacity planning, traffic engineering and network reliability analysis. However, it is difficult …
