Time-sensitive networks provide worst-case guarantees for applications in domains such as the automobile, automation, avionics, and the space industries. A violation of these guarantees can cause considerable financial loss and serious damage to human live ...
Complex network theory describes network performance mostly based on topological characteristics, like betweenness centrality. This work integrates concepts from complex networks and traffic engineering. We propose a new measure for spatial networks and, i ...
We compute bounds on end-to-end worst-case latency and on nodal backlog size for a per-class deterministic network that implements Credit Based Shaper (CBS) and Asynchronous Traffic Shaping (ATS), as proposed by the Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standard ...
Traffic congestion is a significant issue in all urban areas with concentration of activities for various city topologies and distribution of population and land use around the world. Developing realistic models that are able to replicate congestion spread ...
The problem of clustering in urban traffic networks has been mainly studied in static framework by only considering traffic conditions at a given time. Nevertheless, it is important to underline here that traffic is a strongly time-variant process and it n ...
Computer networks are an important part of our life. Yet, they are traditionally hard to manage and operate. The recent shift to Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is promised to change the way in which the networks are run by their operators. However, SDN ...
The technical community has so far defined network neutrality in terms of specific mechanisms, e.g., policing or shaping. We argue that these definitions are problematic: according to them, a non-neutral network may be preferable (for all users) to a neutr ...
Complex networks exist for a number of purposes. The neural, metabolic and food networks ensure our survival, while the social, economic, transportation and communication networks allow us to prosper. Independently of the purposes and particularities of th ...
The power consumption of the Internet and datacenter networks is already significant due to a large degree of redundancy and high idle power consumption of the network elements. Therefore, dynamically matching network resources to the actual load is highly ...
