Most of today's large-scale cloud systems and enterprise data centers are distributing resources to improve scalability and resource utilization. NVMe-over-Fabric protocol allows submitting NVMe commands to a remote NVMe SSD through RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) network. It is attracting attention recently because it is possible to construct a disaggregation storage system with low latency through the protocol. However, the current I/O stack of NVMe-over-Fabric has an inefficient structure for maintaining compatibility with the traditional I/O stack. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new mechanism to reduce I/O latency and CPU overhead by modifying I/O path of NVMe-over-Fabric to pass through legacy block layer. According to the performance evaluation results, the proposed mechanism is able to reduce the I/O latency and CPU overhead by up to 22% and 24% compared to the existing NVMe-over-Fabrics protocol, respectively.

In this paper we analyze the performance of the low latency pre-registration handoff method of mobile IP by computer simulation. Packet losses and delays are evaluated in terms of system utilization. Foreign agents that participate in the handoff process can be modeled as queues representing input and output ports. Therefore, we propose an analytical model of pre-registration handoff by using open queueing network model. Simulation results are shown for validating analytical estimates.

As increasing the number of IPs integrated in a single chip and requiring high communication bandwidth on a chip, the trend of SoC communication architecture is changed from bus- or crossbar-based architecture to packet switched network architecture, NoC. However, highly complex control logics in routers require multiple cycles to switch packet. In this paper, we design low complex router to improve the communication latency. Our NoC design is verified by simulation platform modeled by ESL tool, SoC Designer. We also evaluate our NoC design comparing to the previous NoC architecture based on VC router. Our results show that our NoC architecture has less communication latency, even small throughput degradation (about 1-2%).

Named Data Networking (NDN) is a representative technology of ICN that realizes the future Internet architecture. NDN searches for data by its content and not by its host IP address. The consumer generates an interest packet and sends it to the NDN network. The NDN network uses three tables such as CS, FIB, and PIT and forwards the received interest packet to the next hop. The producer transmits the data packet to the consumer through a name-based forwarding scheme. In this paper, we design and implement an ndnSIM-based NDN network and perform performance evaluation. We analyze the ndnSIM structure and develop a 6-node congested NDN network and a 9-node grid NDN network using ndnSIM. In the simulation, the performance of latency and throughput of the interest packet rate are measured. We analyze the effect of congestion on the latency and throughput of the NDN network. This approach will help researchers in the future.

During communication between wireless users, disconnection may occur during the handover process. The high handover latency during the process of handover degrades the service quality of the wireless communications. This problem becomes more crucial if the operation network is transmitting real-time multimedia applications. This paper presents our work on the interworking of protocols in IPv6 mobility management which aims to explore the means to reduce the handover latency. We propose Reducing Handover Latency through Protocols over IPv6 mobility management.

Information-centric networks operate under the assumption that all network components have built-in caching capabilities. Integrating the caching strategies of information centric networking (ICN) with wireless virtualization improves the gain of virtual infrastructure content caching. In this paper, we propose a framework for software-defined information centric virtualized wireless device-to-device (D2D) networks. Enabling D2D communications in virtualized ICN increases the spectral efficiency due to reuse and proximity gains while the software-defined network (SDN) as a platform also simplifies the computational overhead. In this framework, we propose a joint virtual resource and cache allocation solution for latency-sensitive applications in the next-generation cellular networks. As the formulated problem is NP-hard, we design low-complexity heuristic algorithms which are intuitive and efficient. In our proposed framework, different services can share a pool of infrastructure items. We evaluate our proposed framework and algorithm through extensive simulations. The results demonstrate significant improvements in terms of visiting latency, end user QoE, InP resource utilization and MVNO utility gain.

The emerging Fifth Generation (5G) network technology brings us a new demand for low latency services. However, it may not be possible for long-distanced cloud computing servers to support users with satisfactory low latency services. For this reason, Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) technology are gaining attraction since it is designed to provide low latency services to users by placing cloud computing resources to base-stations or mobile switching centers nearby users. Accordingly, it is necessary to verify the deployed containers on the MECs are reliable enough to provide low latency services empirically. For the purpose, we develop a testing tool to verify the reliability as well as network resources status of running MECs by deploying containers on the MECs in a Kubernetes environment.

The Tactile Internet technology is considered as the evolution of the internet of things. It will enable real time applications in all fields like remote surgery. It requires extra low latency which must not exceed 1ms, high availability, reliability and strong security system. Since it appearance in 2014, tremendous efforts have been made to ensure authentication between sensors, actuators and servers to secure many applications such as remote surgery. This human to machine relationship is very critical due to its dependence of the human live, the communication between the surgeon who performs the remote surgery and the robot arms, as a tactile internet actor, should be fully and end to end protected during the surgery. Thus, a secure mutual user authentication framework has to be implemented in order to ensure security without influencing latency. The existing methods of authentication require server to stock and exchange data between the tactile internet entities, which does not only make the proposed systems vulnerables to the SPOF (Single Point of Failure), but also impact negatively on the latency time. To address these issues, we propose a lightweight authentication protocol for remote surgery in a Tactile Internet environment, which is composed of a decentralized blockchain and physically unclonable functions. Finally, performances evaluation illustrate that our proposed solution ensures security, latency and reliability.

This paper considers the problem of minimizing network-wide broadcast latency in multi-rate wireless mesh networks where a node can dynamically adjust its link layer transmission rates to its neighbors. We propose a broadcast algorithm that complements existing broadcast construct algorithm which chooses a multicast node randomly when each candidate node has same metric. We consider the currently accumulated broadcast latency from source node to the each candidate node so far to choose the next broadcast node. The proposed broadcast algorithm for minimizing latency in a multi-rate mesh networks which exploit wireless advantage and the multi-rate nature of the network. Simulation based on current 802.11 parameters shows that proposed MinLink_WCDS algorithm improves overall latency than the previous existing broadcast algorithm.

Recently, wireless sensor networks are deployed in various applications range from simple environment monitoring systems to complex systems, which generate large amount of information, like motion monitoring, military, and telematics systems. Although wireless sensor network nodes are operated with low-power 8bit processor to execute simple tasks like environment monitoring, the nodes in these complex systems have to execute more difficult tasks. Generally, MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks attempt to reduce the energy consumption using duty cycling mechanism which means the nodes periodically sleep and wake. However, in the duty cycling mechanism. a node should wait until the target node wakes and the sleep latency increases as the number of hops increases. This sleep latency can be serious problem in complex and sensitive systems which require high speed data transfer like military, wing of airplane, and telematics. In this paper, we propose a solution for reducing transmission latency through distributed duty cycling (DDC) in wireless sensor networks. The proposed algorithm is evaluated with real-deployment experiments using CC2420DBK and the experiment results show that the DDC algorithm reduces the transmission latency significantly and reduces also the energy consumption.
