Programmable data planes allow users to define their own data plane algorithms for network
devices including appropriate data plane application programming interfaces (APIs) which …

The emergence of programmable switches offers a new opportunity to revisit ISP-scale
defenses for volumetric DDoS attacks. In theory, these can offer better cost vs. performance …

Traditionally, the data plane has been designed with fixed functions to forward packets using
a small set of protocols. This closed-design paradigm has limited the capability of the …

Sketch-based measurement has emerged as a promising alternative to the traditional
sampling-based network measurement approaches due to its high accuracy and resource …

Abstract Software Defined Networking (SDN), which decouples control plane and data
plane, normally stores states on controllers to provide flexible programmability and …

Round-trip time (RTT) is a central metric that influences end-user QoE and can expose traffic-
interception attacks. Many popular RTT monitoring techniques either send active probes …

Network traffic measurement is central to successful network operations, especially for
today's hyper-scale networks. Although existing works have made great contributions, they …

Network administrators constantly monitor network traffic for congestion and attacks. They
need to perform a large number of measurements on the traffic simultaneously, to detect …

The increasing performance requirements of today's Internet applications demand a reliable
mechanism to transfer data. Many applications rely on the Transmission Control Protocol …

We design and evaluate SwiSh, a distributed shared state management layer for data-plane
P4 programs. SwiSh enables running scalable stateful distributed network functions on …
