Heterogeneous Networking

Heterogeneous photonic integrated circuits and their applications in computing, networking, and imaging

We discuss heterogeneous integrations and their impacts on computing, networking, and imaging applications. We will review photonic integration technologies including silicon, InP, GaAs, SiO2, Si3N4, and magneto-optical materials such as YIG and BIG. We will address new architectures, new capabilities, and performance enhancement brought into computing, networking, and imaging architectures thr...

Component Selection for Heterogeneous Active Networking

Active Networking (AN) involves the processing of programs in heterogeneous networking environments. There are several AN solutions, exposing different APIs and using different languages, and each may be appropriate for different tasks such as high-speed multimedia processing or low-speed routing adjustments. We describe our active node system, LANode, that separates controland data-plane activ...

A Simulator for Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks

We are aiming to better investigate heterogeneous vehicular networking technologies to overcome the shortcomings of using just a single wireless technology. Performance evaluation is usually done using simulation, for which we need integrated tools supporting WiFi, IEEE 802.11p, cellular technology, and mobility feedback. The established vehicular networking simulators such as Veins, iTETRIS, o...

AMnet: Heterogeneous Multicast Services based on Active Networking

AMnet flexibly provides communication services inside the network. It is based on active networking and on a hardware/software codesign in order to improve efficiency. Group communication is explicitly addressed since it is an important paradigm for future network applications. However, the variety of applications, network technologies, end systems, and user preferences restricts multicast comm...

Study on Self-‐Healing and Self-‐ Optimization in Software Defined Networking for Heterogeneous Networks

Demo Abstract: Cascades: An Extensible Heterogeneous Sensor Networking Framework

This demonstration shows a powerful high-level, heterogeneous sensor networking framework, Cascades. We intend to demonstrate how, with this framework, application designers have great control over implementation designs without the requirement of indepth development. Several key components and example applications will be demonstrated, along with some important concepts used in this Python-bas...
