Altruism, reciprocity, and tokens to reward forwarding data: Is that fair?

Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes, Arman Babaei

Decentralized storage networks offer services with intriguing possibilities to reduce inequalities in an extremely centralized market. Fair distribution of rewards, however, is still a persistent problem in the current generation of decentralized applicati ...

Caching and Neutrality

Aikaterini Argyraki, Pavlos Nikolopoulos, Muhammad Abdullah

We are used to defining network neutrality as absence of traffic differentiation, like policing or shaping. These mechanisms, however, are often not what determines end-users’ quality of experience (QoE). Most content today is accessed through edge caches, ...

Global, Passive Detection of Connection Tampering

Louis-Henri Manuel Jakob Merino

In-network devices around the world monitor and tamper with connections for many reasons, including intrusion prevention, combating spam or phishing, and country-level censorship. Connection tampering seeks to block access to specific domain names or keywo ...

Estimating the Topology of Preferential Attachment Graphs Under Partial Observability

Ali H. Sayed, Michele Cirillo

This work addresses the problem of learning the topology of a network from the signals emitted by the network nodes. These signals are generated over time through a linear diffusion process, where neighboring nodes exchange messages according to the underl ...

Fair Incentivization of Bandwidth Sharing in Decentralized Storage Networks

Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes

Peer-to-peer (p2p) networks are not independent of their peers, and the network efficiency depends on peers contributing resources. Because shared resources are not free, this contribution must be rewarded. Peers across the network may share computation po ...

Dynamic Personalized Ranking

Jérémie Rappaz

Personalized ranking methods are at the core of many systems that learn to produce recommendations from user feedbacks. Their primary objective is to identify relevant items from very large vocabularies and to assist users in discovering new content. These ...

AI-based telepresence for broadcast applications

Touradj Ebrahimi, Rayan Daod Nathoo, Laurent Deillon, Henrique Piñeiro Monteagudo

In this paper, we introduce a new solution and underlying architecture that allows remote participants to interact with hosts in a broadcast scenario. To achieve this, background extraction is first applied to video received from remote participants to ext ...

Policy-based Exploration of Equilibrium Representations (PEER): A topology grammar for generative conceptual structural design

Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

Design exploration is a creative process that consists of the incremental generation of design candidates. Supported by digital means or not, the process handles the ill-structured nature of design and allows creativity to flourish through diversity of des ...

Gemini: Elastic SNARKs for Diverse Environments

Alessandro Chiesa

We introduce a new class of succinct arguments, that we call elastic. Elastic SNARKs allow the prover to allocate different resources (such as memory and time) depending on the execution environment and the statement to prove. The resulting output is indep ...
