SmartCrypt enables users to secure and fine-grain sharing of their encrypted data using a novel symmetric homomorphic encryption scheme. Simulation results show that SmartCrypt reduces query time by 17% and improves through-put by 9% over the benchmark scheme.","PeriodicalId":269305,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 19th Annual Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115407519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SRv6, which is a source routing protocol that enables SDN, handles routing decisions in a decentralized manner and is expected to scale better than previous SDN technologies.This paper proposes Acar, an adaptive routing system using SRv6 that adaptively controls routing by considering the bandwidth requirements of applications and the link utilization of the network. We conducted experiments on a virtual network and demonstrated that Acar achieves better load balancing between links and higher throughput compared to ECMP.","PeriodicalId":269305,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 19th Annual Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC)","volume":"300 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115649586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fulfilling this goal requires the ability to assure quality of service (QoS) end to end (E2E), which remains a challenge. A key factor that makes E2E QoS assurance difficult in a telecommunication system is that access networks (ANs) and core networks (CNs) manage their resources autonomously. So far, few results have been available that can ensure E2E QoS over autonomously managed ANs and CNs. Existing techniques rely predominately on each subsystem to meet static local QoS budgets with no recourse in case any subsystem fails to meet its local budgets and, hence will have difficulty delivering E2E assurance. Moreover, most existing distributed optimization techniques that can be applied to assure E2E QoS over autonomous subsystems require the subsystems to exchange sensitive information such as their local decision variables. This paper presents a novel framework and a distributed algorithm that can enable ANs and CNs to autonomously \"cooperate\" with each other to dynamically negotiate their local QoS budgets and to collectively meet E2E QoS goals by sharing only their estimates of the global constraint functions, without disclosing their local decision variables. We prove that this new distributed algorithm converges to an optimal solution almost surely, and also present numerical results to demonstrate that the convergence occurs quickly even with measurement noise.","PeriodicalId":269305,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 19th Annual Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116714045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, under mmWave V2V with relays, interference will occur when the bandwidth is reused. This interference will seriously reduce the quality and scalability of mmWave V2V with relays. Besides, the connectivity structure of mmWave V2V topology varies rapidly due to the highly mobile vehicles, which requires a fast resource control mechanism. To cope with these limitations, a distributed and scalable radio resource management scheme is proposed for mmWave V2V with relays in this paper. This scheme integrates radio resource management into spatial, frequency, and power domains. In spatial domain, ZigZag antenna configuration is utilized to mitigate the interference, which plays a decisive role in the short inter-vehicle distance. In frequency and power domains, two resource blocks are allocated alternately and transmit power is controlled to suppress the interference, which has a decisive impact in the long inter-vehicle distance. Simulation results reveal that the achievable end-to-end (E2E) throughput maintains always higher than the required data rate for all vehicles. Most importantly, it works effectively in scalable mmWave V2V topology.","PeriodicalId":269305,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 19th Annual Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129786346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
