This report documents the reproduction of Methodically Modeling the Tor Network for CS 244. While the techniques for generating Tor network models have evolved since 2012, the model presented in […]

In this paper, we reproduce the main findings of Scafida: A Scale-Free Network Inspired Data Center Architecture. The paper proposes and evaluates Scafida, a datacenter topology that breaks the symmetry […]

Privacy over the internet is a critical issue worldwide, as more and more of the world executes business and personal transactions over the internet. Tor is a network layer that […]

Bandwidth availability, device count increases and new applications such as machine learning have resulted in a steady growth of cloud computing needs, that data centers are required to answer. Among […]

We examine the ways in which congestion control schemes vary across different real network scenarios, and quantify the complexity of variations. Using measurement data from the Pantheon of Congestion Control, […]

Reproducing and Performance Testing Kademlia Distributed hash tables (DHTs) have become a widely used construct of many distributed systems, offering optimal addition/removal of nodes with minimal work and the ability […]

Middleboxes are prevalent in today’s network, providing functions such as VPN, WAN optimization, and firewall. Different middleboxes require different hardware and software resources for their specialized functions. For example, IPSec […]
