Towards a Client-Centric QoS Auto-Scaling System
TL;DR: This work proposes an architecture and presents a prototype system for incorporating network metrics into the auto-scaling and scheduling decisions of cloud management systems, and monitors the network metrics of clients to determine if a particular client is unable to receive the required latency or bandwidth of the service.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a generic real-time transport and adaptation protocol for IP networks
Y Rasheed,Alberto Leon-Garcia +1 more
TL;DR: This paper explains the protocol structure for GRAP and discusses the real-time adaptation functions provided by the protocol, and describes the reference implementation in the form of a socket Application Programming Interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delay analysis of various service disciplines in symmetric token passing networks
D. Karvelas,Alberto Leon-Garcia +1 more
TL;DR: An approach to the delay analysis of various service disciplines in symmetric token passing networks is presented and it is shown that exact or approximate accurate expressions for the average packet delay of different service disciplines can be directly derived by the delay expression of the exhaustive service system.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Structured Peer-to-Peer Control Plane
Khashayar Khavari,Nadeem Abji,Ramy Farha,Chuen Liang,Ali Tizghadam,Farid Fadaie,Alberto Leon-Garcia +6 more
TL;DR: A structured P2P control plane based on modifications to the original Chord P1P topology is presented, resulting in a hierarchical overlay of SIP peers that replaces traditional client-server paradigms in control plane signaling protocols.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Application platforms for smart cities
TL;DR: The SAVI (Smart Applications on Virtual Infrastructure) application platform testbed for research in smart applications and its design using software-defined infrastructure is described and the CVST (Connected Vehicles and Smart Transportation) Platform for Intelligent Transportation Services in the Greater Toronto area is presented.
