Future programmable networks such as 5G/6G and large-scale IoT deployments demand dynamic and intelligent bandwidth control mechanisms to ensure stable Quality of Service (QoS) under highly variable traffic conditions. Conventional queue-based schedu...

Among the 15 beamlines in the first phase of the High-Energy Photon Source (HEPS) in China, the maximum peak data generation volume can reach 1 PB per day, with the maximum peak data generation rate reaching 3.2 Tb/s. This poses significant challenge...

Modern Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) require adaptive controller placement addressing multi-objective optimization where latency minimization, load balancing, and fault tolerance must be simultaneously optimized. Traditional static ap...

Current federated identity management systems lack contextual awareness of workflows across independent systems, creating security gaps and workflow integrity challenges. This article details the design and implementation of Alohomora, a distributed...

Heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (HWSNs), comprising super nodes and normal sensors, offer a promising solution for monitoring diverse environments. However, their deployment is constrained by the limited battery life of sensors. To address thi...

This paper presents a real-time handover and link assignment framework for low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellite networks operating in dense urban canyons. The proposed Markov chain-guided simulated annealing (MCSA) algorithm optimizes user-to-satellite as...

Orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams exhibit divergence during transmission, which constrains the capacity of communication system channels. To address these challenges, intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs), which can independently manipulate incid...

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) play a critical role in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), enabling communication between vehicles and roadside infrastructure. This paper proposes an Adaptive Context-Aware VANET Routing (ACAVR) protocol des...

This paper investigates cooperative behavior among Autonomous Systems (ASs) within a federated network environment designed to support collaborative shared-technology deployment. It makes use of the concept of an AS federation, where independently ma...

As network automation and self-organizing networks (SONs) rapidly evolve, edge devices increasingly demand lightweight, real-time, and high-precision classification algorithms to support critical tasks such as traffic identification, intrusion detect...
