control the scop e of requests and enough to reach at least one memb er that is closer to the replies is to limit the numb er of hops they travel We source This memb er do es not necessarily share the

In the context of the most common networks today, there are five such layers, bracketed by hardware at the lowest layer and application software at the highest. While this modularization has generally been a huge success story for the field, networks have now been subject to decades of changes in terms of both technologies and use cases.

The primary goal of my research is to design tools, techniques, and policies to help networks operate better, and to enable users of these networks (both public and private) to experience high availability and good end-to-end performance. The problems that I tackle often involve the intersection of networking technology and policy. I study problems in the pricing and economics of Internet interconnection, global Internet censorship and information control, the security and privacy implications of emerging technologies, and the performance of consumer, commercial, and enterprise networks. My research achieves impact through new design paradigms in network architecture, the release of open-source software systems, and data and evidence that can influence public policy discourse.

  • A New Approach to Network Function Virtualization
    A New Approach to Network Function Virtualization By Aurojit Panda A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Scott J. Shenker, Chair Professor Sylvia Ratnasamy Professor Ion Stoica Professor Deirdre Mulligan Summer 2017 A New Approach to Network Function Virtualization Copyright 2017 by Aurojit Panda 1 Abstract A New Approach to Network Function Virtualization by Aurojit Panda Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Scott J. Shenker, Chair Networks provide functionality beyond just packet routing and delivery. Network functions such as firewalls, caches, WAN optimizers, etc. are crucial for scaling networks and in supporting new applications. While traditionally network functions were implemented using dedicated hardware middleboxes, recent efforts have resulted in them being implemented as software and deployed in virtualized environment . This move towards virtualized network function is commonly referred to as network function virtualization (NFV). While the NFV proposal has been enthusiastically accepted by carriers and enterprises, actual efforts to deploy NFV have not been as successful. In this thesis we argue that this is because the current deployment strategy which relies on operators to ensure that network functions are configured to correctly implement policies, and then deploys these network functions as virtual machines (or containers), connected by virtual switches are ill- suited to NFV workload. In this dissertation we propose an alternative NFV framework based on the use of static tech- niques such as type checking and formal verification.

    [Draft article] Spam: It’s Not Just for Inboxes and Search Engines! Making Hirsch h-index Robust to Scientospam Dimitrios Katsaros1,2 Leonidas Akritidis1 Panayiotis Bozanis1 1Dept. of Computer & Communication Engineering, University of Thessaly, Volos, Greece 2Dept. of Informatics, Aristotle University, Thessaloniki, Greece [email protected], {leoakr,pbozanis}@inf.uth.gr Abstract What is the ‘level of excellence’ of a scientist and the real impact of his/her work upon the scientific thinking and practising? How can we design a fair, an unbiased metric – and most importantly – a metric robust to manipulation? Quantifying an individual’s scientific merit The evaluation of the scientific work of a scientist has long attracted significant interest, due to the benefits by obtaining an unbiased and fair criterion. A few years ago such metrics were yet another topic of investigation for the scientometric community with only theoretical importance, without any practical extensions. Very recently though the situation has dramatically changed; an increasing number of academic institutions are using such scientometric indicators to decide faculty promotions. Automated methodologies have been developed to calculate such indicators [6]. Also, fund- ing agencies use them to allocate funds, and recently some governments are considering the consistent use of such metrics for funding distribution. For instance, the Australian govern- ment has established the Research Quality Framework (RQF) as an important feature in the fabric of research in Australia1; the UK government has established the Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) to produce quality profiles for each submission of research activity made by institution2. The use of such indicators to characterize a scientist’s merit is controversial, and a plethora arXiv:0801.0386v1 [cs.DL] 2 Jan 2008 of arguments can be stated against their use.

  • Novel Frameworks for Mining Heterogeneous and Dynamic
    Novel Frameworks for Mining Heterogeneous and Dynamic Networks A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Computer Science of the College of Engineering by Chunsheng Fang B.E., Electrical Engineering & Information Science, June 2006 University of Science & Technology of China, Hefei, P.R.China Advisor and Committee Chair: Prof. Anca L. Ralescu November 3, 2011 Abstract Graphs serve as an important tool for discrete data representation. Recently, graph representations have made possible very powerful machine learning algorithms, such as manifold learning, kernel methods, semi-supervised learning. With the advent of large-scale real world networks, such as biological networks (disease network, drug target network, etc.), social networks (DBLP Co- authorship network, Facebook friendship, etc.), machine learning and data mining algorithms have found new application areas and have contributed to advance our understanding of proper- ties, and phenomena governing real world networks. When dealing with real world data represented as networks, two problems arise quite naturally: I) How to integrate and align the knowledge encoded in multiple and heterogeneous networks? For instance, how to find out the similar genes in co-disease and protein-protein inter- action networks? II) How to model and predict the evolution of a dynamic network? A real world exam- ple is, given N years snapshots of an evolving social network, how to build a model that can cap- ture the temporal evolution and make reliable prediction? In this dissertation, we present an innovative graph embedding framework, which identifies the key components of modeling the evolution in time of a dynamic graph.
