This paper studies the design of self-adjusting datacenter networks whose physical topology
dynamically adapts to the workload, in an online and demand-aware manner. We propose …

Modern cloud applications has led to a huge increase in multicast flows, which is becoming
one of the primary communication patterns in nowadays datacenter networks. Emerging …

New optical technologies offer the ability to reconfigure network topologies dynamically,
rather than setting them once and for all. This is true in both optical wide area networks …

More and more networks are becoming reconfigurable: not just the routing can be
programmed, but the physical layer itself as well. Various technologies enable this …

Many modern cloud applications frequently generate multicast traffic, which is becoming one
of the primary communication patterns in datacenters. Emerging reconfigurable datacenter …

The performance of many data-centric cloud applications critically depends on the
performance of the underlying datacenter network. Reconfigurable optical technologies …

The increasing amount of data replication across datacenters introduces a need for efficient
bulk data transfer protocols which meet QoS guarantees, notably timely completion. We …
