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.},

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.},

protocols and the transmitted data. We present our initial findings for an 

error-free scenario with various simulated and real-life packet streams and 

show that even with the absence of design time knowledge about the packet

compression gains for IP packets up to 90%, as an example.},

abstract = {Systems for assisted and autonomous driving increasingly depend on 

information received and updated through wireless communication. But 

wireless communication often faces performance degradation because of its 

dynamic nature. Using multiple available communication channels, such as 

WiFi, LTE or 5G New Radio, simultaneously can increase the throughput and 

reliability, but also increases the dynamics of the system. MPTCP estimates 

the channel capacity and latency and schedule packets accordingly. However, 

in conditions with unstable channels MPTCP fails to fully utilize the 

available capacity. In this paper, we propose the use of Network Coding to 

efficiently utilize the available resources. We use a channel agnostic, 

random scheduler to maximize the utilization of all available channels. 

This prevents underestimations, but also produces a high number of packet 

loss and duplicate transmissions. We use Network Coding to repair the 

losses and reduce the overhead of redundant data. Our implementation of 

this protocol is evaluated against MPTCP in an emulated multipath network 

with time-varying path properties. The evaluation shows, that the proposed 

protocol utilizes the channels efficiently even in unstable conditions. In 

the evaluated dynamic network, the proposed protocol efficiently utilizes 

94% of the available capacity, while MPTCP is below 80% due to 

underestimation. While our protocol is not suitable for general purpose 

traffic, it provides good performance for large file transfers in unstable 

wireless multipath networks.},

abstract = {Many envisioned applications for the Tactile Internet require latencies 

that cannot be achieved by current wireless networks. In this paper, we 

present a method to optimize the reliability of a live stream using 

multiple paths. Compared to other approaches, our method does not rely on 

feedback to achieve the reliability and thus does not add delay for 

retransmission attempts. We use the diversity of multiple paths to 

compensate for the loss of capacity in individual paths. By using an FEC 

code to generate redundant data the transmission is more robust against 

fluctuations in capacity of single paths. We present an optimization 

problem to find a rate allocation for the paths that minimizes the 

interruptions of the stream. The performance is evaluated in an emulated 

network based on real-world measurements. The evaluation shows that the 

theoretical values can be achieved with a small margin. The optimized 

allocation of rates to the paths increases the reliability by up to 

12%.With coding the reliability can be increased by up to 20%, depending 

on the code rate.},

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

Virtualization the elements of the chain can be provisioned in virtual

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.},

In this paper, we present three fictional, yet likely use cases that highlight how the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and Infrastructures are ready to support this much needed innovation, while the power distribution infrastructure has still a long way to go to be able benefit from the opportunities offered by ICT.

abstract = {Cellular networks are undergoing a major shift in their deployment and optimization. Even though the deployment of LTE led to an overall performance increase in cellular networks, disseminating data to multiple users inside a cell is still under development. Currently, it is done via unicast connections, which is inefficient in terms of throughput and power consumption because the data is duplicated. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) developed a novel technology to be able to multicast and broadcast information over cellular networks, MBMS. However, different studies stated that this solution had problems related to the spectrum, and new multicasting alternatives which provide better performance have appeared. Since these new alternatives came up, a race for the control of multicasting/broadcasting in cellular networks has started. In this paper, we collect, analyze and compare the leading technologies that enable the system to efficiently disseminate data over cellular networks, and indicate which ones are the most likely to succeed.},

abstract = {In the upcoming era of 5G a huge increase in the number of devices will define a heterogeneous environment with a massive amount of lossy wireless communications. Among all error correction protocols, Random Linear Network Coding is now taking the lead. However, these protocols were firstly designed to provide in-order-delay in D2D communications. The interplay between Network Coding and Mobile Clouds creates a mesh network where nodes may receive information from multiple sources. Nevertheless, Network Coding protocols still have some weaknesses in multipath environments because they can only handle one generation at the same time. In this paper, we propose a method to improve conventional RLNC protocols by making them be able to manage multiple generations simultaneously. We also identify possible trade-offs between conventional RLNC protocols and our new approach. We conclude that multigeneration protocols have better behavior in terms of throughput and resilience, but the average latency per decoded packet is higher.},

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.},
