abstract = {Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) is widely considered a key enabler for 5G networks. It compensates for lost and corrupted packets by sending redundant coding packets. Despite the considerable attention RLNC received from the research community, the impact of the number of redundant coded packets on the network performance is poorly understood. An excessive number of redundancies would pollute the network with useless packets that give no additional information, and an insufficient number of redundancies would not provide enough packet loss resilience. We introduce a novel formal model for predicting the number of losses a system will have when RLNC is applied, by optimizing simulation results with the Newton-Raphson method. The model allows the sender to set the minimum amount of RLNC redundancies needed to keep the packet loss under a certain threshold. We validate our model against simulations by calculating the MSE between simulation results and our model.},

abstract = {Fulcrum combines two encoding stages, first using one high Galois field, such as (GF(2^8)) and then with the binary Galois field (GF(2)). This allows intermediate and end devices, depending their computation power, to select either field to recode and decode coded packets. To ensure a high decoding probability, Fulcrum codes introduce (r) expansion packets at the outer coding stage, to increase the chance of producing linearly independent packets. However, the fixed number (r) hinder the chance of obtaining both high decoding probability and efficient transmission at a reduced computation complexity. We propose tunable expansion packet (TEP) protocols, which adjust the extra coefficients in the outer coding stage based on feedback from receivers. Comprehensive evaluations show that TEP protocols significantly increase goodput and reduce computation complexity while maintaining a low overhead.},

abstract = {Service Function Chaining allows the flexible and efficient deployment of 

network functions for different applications. With Network Function 

Virtualization the elements of the chain can be provisioned in virtual 

environments on any COTS hardware. This introduces the question of where to 

position the individual network functions within the virtualization 

environment. This problem of network function placement has been studied in 

theory as an optimization problem on a graph. However it is challenging to 

apply theoretical work on practical deployments. In this paper, we perform 

a measurement campaign to study the delay introduced by Service Function 

Chaining. We propose placement heuristics and evaluate the performance on 

OpenStack. With the proposed heuristics, the service delay can be reduced 

by more than 20%. We measured the overhead introduced by a network 

function implemented in user space. The processing delay in user space can 

be twice as much as the same function in kernel space. More interestingly, 

we identified a service interruption of more than 1 second after activation 

of the chain.},

abstract = {Massive content delivery in cellular networks is in the spotlight of the research community as data traffic is increasing at an incredibly fast pace. The existing LTE-A implementation for content broadcast presents several issues such as indoor coverage, along with low energy and spectral efficiency. Therefore, novel systems that provide efficient massive content delivery and reduced energy consumption are needed. In this paper we present a massive content distribution protocol that combines the benefits of cooperative mobile clouds (CMCs) with Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) through multicast WiFi links. Our main goal is to offload data traffic from the LTE-A link and to reduce the energy consumption at the cooperating UEs. We solve the problem of excessive signaling that oftentimes arises in cooperative approaches by eliminating feedback messages within the CMCs. Instead, we provide a simple but accurate analytic model to correctly configure the number of coded transmissions to be performed within the CMCs. Results show that energy savings of more than 37 percent can be achieved with our protocol when compared to direct content download from the cellular base station. Furthermore, bandwidth utilization at the LTE-A link is sharply reduced.},

solution is simply individually unicast the video stream to each node, 

which is extremely resource-inefficient. In this demo, we show how we 

perform reliable massive video multicasting over standard LTE links by 

combining the principle of cooperative networking and Random Linear Network 

Coding. We offload the majority of the traffic from LTE onto Wifi 

multicasts, thus increasing the efficiency of the LTE channel usage by 

multiple orders of magnitude. This demo has been demonstrated at the Mobile
