Temporal Routing In Delay Tolerant Networks, Pascal Thubert, Akram Sheriff, Frank Brockners, Patrick Wetterwald

Defensive Publications Series

In conventional network environments, routing implies a stable world in which the vision of a next hop is consistent with the vision a forwarding node, so that a packet can progress, for example, in a greedy fashion that reduces a remaining cost at each hop, to a destination. However, in the world of mobile delay tolerant networking (DTN), nodes can move in any direction, nodes may forward packets when they meet a peer, and may move in between such actions. Thus, the relative position of nodes can change between meeting such that it can become difficult to compute a physical …

Optimization Of Audio Curation For Venues Based On Real-Time Analysis Of User Response, Jaime Guajardo, Dmitrii Boiarshinov, Gabi Lanning

Defensive Publications Series

Optimally selecting types of audio to align with a particular experience is a difficult task. Many venues hire music curation service providers, such as DJs, which can be prohibitively expensive. Further, a hired music curator that incorrectly curates music for a venue can substantially reduce patronage to a venue. Finally, it can be prohibitively difficult to determine whether music is being curated incorrectly or if patronage in a venue is being reduced due to some other cause. A music curation service provider’s task is complicated by rapidly changing tastes in music within the general public. This problem is exacerbated due …


Redundant Mesh Trees For Robust Scalable Low-Latency P2p Media Distribution, Stefan Lindmark, Christopher Probst-Ranly, Alexander Schäfer Oct 2023

Redundant Mesh Trees For Robust Scalable Low-Latency P2p Media Distribution, Stefan Lindmark, Christopher Probst-Ranly, Alexander Schäfer

Defensive Publications Series

A redundant mesh (RMS) tree structure is proposed as a P2P network topology for reducing network latency. The RMS tree structure may enable low-latency network scalability through redundant connections within tree nodes, and a fully connected mesh cluster at each node of the tree structure. When compared to a traditional P2P or client-server network topology, bandwidth demands may be reduced at every node of the network. Thus, latent network capabilities may be utilized, and overall system latency may decrease.

Adaptive Packet Acknowledgement Oct 2023

Adaptive Packet Acknowledgement

Defensive Publications Series

High performance AI applications require very high bandwidth network communication along with predictable tail latency. Any congestion on the network directly affects the tail latencies and thereby affects the performance of the end applications. A principle of an example solution is for the receiver timer to be a function of the rate at which the transmitter sends data packets and adjust based on the number of packets received since the last acknowledgement was transmitted. With this, the receiver timer can shorten and send frequent ACKs if very few packets are received to urge the transmitter to keep its tracker window …
