Multipath Tcp, And New Packet Scheduling Method, Cole N. Maxwell

Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal

Today many devices contain hardware to transmit data across the internet via cellular, WiFi, and wired connections. Many of these devices communicate by using a protocol known as Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TCP was developed when network resources were expensive, and it was rare for a typical network-aware device to have more than one connection to a network. An extension to TCP known as Multipath TCP (MPTCP) was developed to leverage the multiple network connections to which devices now have access. While the MPTCP extension has been successful in its goal of using multiple network connections to send data simultaneously, …

Learning And Understanding User Interface Semantics From Heterogeneous Networks With Multimodal And Positional Attributes, Meng Kiat Gary Ang, Ee-Peng Lim

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

User interfaces (UI) of desktop, web, and mobile applications involve a hierarchy of objects (e.g., applications, screens, view class, and other types of design objects) with multimodal (e.g., textual and visual) and positional (e.g., spatial location, sequence order, and hierarchy level) attributes. We can therefore represent a set of application UIs as a heterogeneous network with multimodal and positional attributes. Such a network not only represents how users understand the visual layout of UIs but also influences how users would interact with applications through these UIs. To model the UI semantics well for different UI annotation, search, and evaluation tasks, …

Adaptation Of Network Flow Problems For Course Of Action Generation, Alexander N. Stephens

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis introduces two methods to generate Courses of Action (COA) in distributed warfare scenarios: the Wargaming Commodity Course of Action Automated Method Under Uncertainty (WCCAAM-U2) and Dynamic Transshipment Problem (DTP)-generated COAs. Previous work by Deberry et al. used a Multi-Commodity Flow Problem (MCFP) to generate COAs for single-period wargame scenarios with known enemy force amounts. In WCCAAM-U2, we adapt an MCFP to work in situations where only intelligence estimates of enemy forces are known. Compared to two other COA-generation methods, the WCCAAAM-U2 COA outperforms the next highest-performing COA by 307% when compared by a ratio of objective success rate …

Generalizing Graph Neural Network Across Graphs And Time, Zhihao Wen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Graph-structured data widely exist in diverse real-world scenarios, analysis of these graphs can uncover valuable insights about their respective application domains. However, most previous works focused on learning node representation from a single fixed graph, while many real-world scenarios require representations to be quickly generated for unseen nodes, new edges, or entirely new graphs. This inductive ability is essential for high-throughtput machine learning systems. However, this inductive graph representation problem is quite difficult, compared to the transductive setting, for that generalizing to unseen nodes requires new subgraphs containing the new nodes to be aligned to the neural network trained already. …

Quantization-Aware Interval Bound Propagation For Training Certifiably Robust Quantized Neural Networks, Mathias Lechner, Dorde Zikelic, Krishnendu Chatterjee, A. Thomas Henzinger, Daniela Rus

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

We study the problem of training and certifying adversarially robust quantized neural networks (QNNs). Quantization is a technique for making neural networks more efficient by running them using low-bit integer arithmetic and is therefore commonly adopted in industry. Recent work has shown that floating-point neural networks that have been verified to be robust can become vulnerable to adversarial attacks after quantization, and certification of the quantized representation is necessary to guarantee robustness. In this work, we present quantization-aware interval bound propagation (QA-IBP), a novel method for training robust QNNs. Inspired by advances in robust learning of non-quantized networks, our training …

Effective Graph Kernels For Evolving Functional Brain Networks, Xinlei Wang, Jinyi Chen, Bing Tian Dai, Junchang Xin, Yu Gu, Ge Yu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The graph kernel of the functional brain network is an effective method in the field of neuropsychiatric disease diagnosis like Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The traditional static brain networks cannot reflect dynamic changes of brain activities, but evolving brain networks, which are a series of brain networks over time, are able to seize such dynamic changes. As far as we know, the graph kernel method is effective for calculating the differences among networks. Therefore, it has a great potential to understand the dynamic changes of evolving brain networks, which are a series of chronological differences. However, if the conventional graph kernel …

A Novel Parking Management In Smart City Vehicular Datacenters, Syed Rizvi, Susan Zehra, Steven Olariu

College of Sciences Posters

Researchers have shown that most vehicles spend the majority of their time parked in parking garages, lots, or driveways. During this time, their computing resources are unused and untapped. This has led to substantial interest in Vehicular Cloud, an area of research in which each vehicle acts as a computation node. The main difference between traditional cloud computing and vehicular cloud computing is the availability of nodes. In traditional clouds, nodes are available 24/7, while in vehicular clouds, nodes (vehicles) are only available while parked in parking lots. This creates a dynamic environment as vehicles enter and exit parking garages …

To solve this problem, we implement a Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) that allows users in disconnected regions access to the internet. This is enabled by collecting all data requests on the users’ phones and passing them to a device that can carry them to a connected region. This device can then collect the necessary information and give it back to the users in the disconnected region. …

Container Caching Optimization Based On Explainable Deep Reinforcement Learning, Divyashree Jayaram

Master's Projects

Serverless edge computing environments use lightweight containers to run IoT services on a need basis i.e only when a service is requested. These containers experience a cold start up latency when starting up. One probable solution to reduce the startup delay is container caching on the edge nodes. Edge nodes are nodes that are closer in proximity to the IoT devices. Efficient container caching strategies are required since the resource availability on these edge devices is limited. Because of this constraint on resources, the container caching strategies should also take proper resource utilization into account. This project tries to further …

Resource Coordination Learning For End-To-End Network Slicing Under Limited State Visibility, Xiang Liu

Master's Projects

This paper discusses a resource coordination problem under limited state visibility to realize end-to-end network slices that are hosted by multiple network domains. We formulate this resource coordination problem as a special type of the multi- armed bandit (MAB) problem called the combinatorial multi-armed bandit (CMAB) problem. Based on this formulation, we convert the problem to a regret minimization problem with a linear objective function and solve it by adapting the Learning with Linear Rewards (LLR) algorithm. In this paper, we present a new hybrid approach that incorporates state reports, which include partial resource information in each domain, into the …
