Food webs are an integral part of every ecosystem on the planet, yet understanding the
mechanisms sha** these complex networks remains a major challenge. Recently, several …

Traditionally, networks such as datacenter interconnects are designed to optimize worst-
case performance under arbitrary traffic patterns. Such network designs can however be far …

By enhancing the traditional static network (eg, based on electric switches) with a dynamic
topology (eg, based on reconfigurable optical switches), emerging reconfigurable data …

This paper focuses on optimizing the virtual machine (VM) placement to reduce the
bandwidth usage in modern virtualization based data centers. Existing solutions require all …

We present a distributed self-adjusting algorithm for skip graphs that minimizes the average
routing costs between arbitrary communication pairs by performing topological adaptation to …

Emerging networked systems become increasingly flexible, reconfigurable, and “self-⁎”.
This introduces an opportunity to adjust networked systems in a demand-aware manner …

Various modes of transportation are available when people travel within cities, and trips can
be classified into two types depending on whether some type of vehicle is used. Compared …

Deflection routing is a much-studied contention resolution technique in the context of Optical
Burst/Packet Switching networks, as it promises to improve burst blocking performance and …

Israeli‐Jalfon's self‐stabilization algorithm provides a solution to the problem of fault
tolerance in distributed systems. To quantitatively evaluate the algorithm and discover the …

This paper investigates the opportunities and limitations of adaptive virtual machine (VM)
migration to reduce communication costs in a virtualized environment. We propose a simple …
