We analyze the conditions in which offloading computation reduces completion time. We
extend the existing literature by deriving an inequality that relates computation offloading …

An increasingly large fraction of Internet services are hosted on a cloud computing system
such as Amazon EC2 or Windows Azure. But to date, no in-depth studies about cloud usage …

This article introduces the concept, implementation and evaluation of Dynamic Traffic
Management (DTM). This management mechanism minimizes traffic transfer costs on …

The current LTE network architecture is organized into very large regions, each having a
core network and a radio access network. The core network contains an Internet edge …

Cloud providers employ sophisticated virtualization techniques and strategies for sharing
resources among a large number of largely uncoordinated and mutually untrusted …

This paper reports all-optical, function programmable, transparent, intra-and inter-data
center networking (DCN) using space and time-division multiplexing (SDM/TDM) within data …

Many video streaming applications operate their geo-distributed services in the cloud, taking
advantage of superior connectivities between datacenters to push content closer to users or …

In this paper, we survey different existing schemes for the transmission of flows in Data
Center Networks (DCNs). The transport of flows in DCNs must cope with the bandwidth …

在新的应用模式下, 传统层次结构数据中心网络在规模, 带宽, 扩展性和成本方面存在诸多不足.
为了适应新型应用的需求, 数据中心网络需要在低成本的前提下, 满足高扩展性, 低配置开销 …

The emerging deployment of geographically distributed data centers (DCs) incurs a
significant amount of data transfers over the Internet. Such transfers are typically charged by …
