In modern digital communications throughput rates in the order of gigabits per second are not uncommon. Hence there is a need for fast equalizing filters. While all feed forward filters can easily be pipelined, therefore sped up, the feedback filter (FBF) of decision feedback equalizers is the bottleneck of its performance. A simple, extremely...

Detecting similarities between (RNA, DNA, and protein) sequences is an important part of bioinformatics. Among the algorithms used to accomplish this, the Smith-Waterman algorithm is very popular. A sequential implementation of Smith-Waterman requires quadratic running time with respect to the length of the sequences. As the amount of data in...

With the decrease in cost of storage and computation of public clouds, even small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are able to process large amounts of data. This causes businesses to increase the amounts of data they collect, to sizes that are difficult for traditional database management systems to handle. Distributed SQL Query Engines (DSQEs),...

Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) are emerging in the industrial, consumer and re- search domains. A key challenge for UAS communications is overcoming slow and unreliable wireless connectivity by achieving high link utilization on multiple radio interfaces. We have developed and implemented a peer-to-peer communication framework, based on Dispersy...

Throughout the years the Internet became of indispensable value to social, economic and political life. Despite this, the Internet in all its forms and protocols has proven to be extremely sensitive to manipulation by forces in control of the infrastructure of the Internet. Along with the growth of The Internet came the growth of censorship and...

No scalable privacy-enhancing technologies exists that is capable of anonymous HD video streaming. Our paper discusses the new anonymizer built into Tribler, a social content-sharing client. With anonymous HD-video streaming as the main objective requirements as at least 10 Mbit/s throughput, user bandwidth donations and NAT-traversal are...

In this work, we propose the design of KOALA-C, a task scheduling system that can operate in integrated multi-cluster and multi-cloud environments based on two previous work: KOALA and SkyMark. We design and evaluate a number of task allocation and resource provisioning policies through both simulations and real-world experiments using KOALA-C.

Large-scale human cooperation is vital to society. Designers and community facilitators of peer-to-peer networks are constantly investigating free-riding prevention measures for their platforms. Such schemes of rewarding good behavior remain a challenging problem in fully decentralized P2P networks. This work is a first attempt to integrate...

For companies that deliver hardware services, the ability to scale dynamically has many advantages. In a special case, a company may have some computing resources available and desire to scale out when traffic peaks. A periodical budget may then be allocated, which needs to be used efficiently. This can be achieved through a combination of...

A performance comparison has been done between libswift and other P2P clients to assess whether libswift can be made the fastest P2P client currently available. A modular testing framework targeted at testing and measuring P2P clients has been developed and has been succesfully used to run several experiments with the clients and to debug and...

Peer-to-peer networks rely on gossip algorithms to spread information about the peer activity and the network status. State-of-the-art gossip algorithms are not sufficient to spread the information widely, as the size and the complexity of the unmanaged networks grow. They suffer from high bandwidth utilization and lack mechanisms to verify the...
