FirmFuzz: Automated IoT Firmware Introspection and Analysis

While the number of IoT devices grows at an exhilarating pace their security remains stagnant. Imposing secure coding standards across all vendors is infeasible. Testing individual devices allows an analyst to evaluate their security post deployment. Any d ...

Flow control for Latency-Critical RPCs

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias

In today’s modern datacenters, the waiting time spent within a server’s queue is a major contributor of the end-to-end tail latency of μs-scale remote procedure calls. In traditional TCP, congestion control handles in-network congestion, while flow control ...

Scrub: Online TroubleShooting for Large Mission-Critical Applications

Willy Zwaenepoel

Scrub is a troubleshooting tool for distributed applications that operate under strict SLOs common in production environments. It allows users to formulate queries on events occurring during execution in order to assess the correctness of the application’s ...

Systematically testing OpenFlow controller applications

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Peter Peresini, Maciej Leszek Kuzniar, Jennifer Rexford

The emergence of OpenFlow-capable switches enables exciting new network functionality, at the risk of programming errors that make communication less reliable. The centralized programming model, where a single controller program manages the network, seems ...

Definitive Consensus for Distributed Data Inference

Leonidas Georgopoulos

Inference from data is of key importance in many applications of informatics. The current trend in performing such a task of inference from data is to utilise machine learning algorithms. Moreover, in many applications that it is either required or is pref ...

A Provably Starvation-Free Distributed Directory Protocol

Vincent Gramoli, Hagit Albo Attiya

This paper presents Combine, a distributed directory protocol for shared objects, designed for large-scale distributed systems. Directory protocols support move requests, allowing to write the object locally, as well as lookup requests, providing a read-on ...

Slicing Distributed Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Vincent Gramoli

Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures are popular for tasks such as collaborative download, VoIP telephony, and backup. To maximize performance in the face of widely variable storage capacities and bandwidths, such systems typically need to shift work from poor ...

User-level Internet tomography and overlay routing

Xuan Hung Nguyen

In this thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...

Distributed Media Rate Allocation in Multipath Networks

Pascal Frossard, Dan Jurca

The paper addresses the media-specific rate allocation problem in multipath networks. The streaming rate on each path is determined such that the end- to-end media distortion is minimized, when the receiving client aggregates packets received via multiple ...

Balanced relay allocation on heterogeneous unstructured overlays

Patrick Thiran, Matthias Grossglauser, Xuan Hung Nguyen

Due to the increased usage of NAT boxes and firewalls, it has become harder for applications to establish direct connections seamlessly among two end-hosts. A recently, adopted proposal to mitigate this problem is to use relay nodes, end-hosts that act as ...

Message Passing in Semantic Peer-to-Peer Overlay Networks

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems rely on machine-to-machine ad-hoc communications to offer services to a community. Contrary to the classical client-server architecture, P2P systems consider all peers, i.e., all nodes participating in the network, as being equal ...

Method of detecting anomalous behaviour in a computer network

Boi Faltings, Pedro Bados

Method of detecting anomalous behaviour in a computer network comprising the steps of - monitoring network traffic flowing in a computer network system, - authenticating users to which network packets of the network traffic are associated, - extracting par ...
