|abstract=Visible Light Communication (VLC) based on LEDs has been a hot topic investigated for over a decade. However, most of the research efforts assume the intensity of LED light is constant. This hypothesis is not true when Smart Lighting is introduced to VLC, which requires LEDs to adapt their brightness based on the intensity of natural ambient light. Smart lighting saves power consumption and improves user comfort. However, intensity adaptation severely affects the throughput performance of data communication. In this paper, we propose SmartVLC, a system that can maximize the throughput (benefit communication) while still maintaining the LEDs' illumination function (benefit smart lighting). A novel Adaptive Multiple Pulse Position Modulation (AMPPM) scheme is proposed to support fine-grained dimming levels to avoid flickering while maximizing the throughput under each dimming level. SmartVLC is implemented on off-the-shelf commodity hardware. Several real-life challenges in both hardware and software are addressed to make it a robust real-time system. Comprehensive experiments are carried out to evaluate the system performance under multifaceted scenarios. Experimental results demonstrate that SmartVLC supports a communication distance up to 3.6m, and improves the throughput achieved with two state-of-the-art approaches by 40 and 12 percent on average, respectively, without bringing any flickering to users.
|abstract = Packet routing in virtual networks requires virtual-to-physical address translation. The address mappings are updated by a single party, i.e., the network administrator, but they are read by multiple devices across the network when routing tenant packets. Existing approaches face an inherent read-write performance tradeoff: they either store these mappings in dedicated gateways for fast updates at the cost of slower forwarding or replicate them at end-hosts and suffer from slow updates.SwitchV2P aims to escape this tradeoff by leveraging the network switches to transparently cache the address mappings while learning them from the traffic. SwitchV2P brings the mappings closer to the sender, thus reducing the first packet latency and translation overheads, while simultaneously enabling fast mapping updates, all without changing existing routing policies and deployed gateways. The topology-aware data-plane caching protocol allows the switches to transparently adapt to changing network conditions and varying in-switch memory capacity.Our evaluation shows the benefits of in-network address mapping, including an up to 7.8× and 4.3× reduction in FCT and first packet latency respectively, and a substantial reduction in translation gateway load. Additionally, SwitchV2P achieves up to a 1.9× reduction in bandwidth overheads and requires order-of-magnitude fewer gateways for equivalent performance.

|abstract = Visible light communication (VLC) has become an important complementary means to electromagnetic communications due to its freedom from interference. However, existing Internet-of-Things (IoT) VLC links can reach only <10 meters, which has significantly limited the applications of VLC to the vast and diverse scenarios. In this paper, we propose ChirpVLC, a novel modulation method to prolong VLC distance from ≤10 meters to over 100 meters. The basic idea of ChirpVLC is to trade throughput for prolonged distance by exploiting Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) modulation. Specifically, 1) we modulate the luminous intensity as a sinusoidal waveform with a linearly varying frequency and design different spreading factors (SF) for different environmental conditions. 2) We design range adaptation scheme for luminance sensing range to help receivers achieve better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). 3) ChirpVLC supports many-to-one and non-line-of-sight communications, breaking through the limitations of visible light communication. We implement ChirpVLC and conduct extensive real-world experiments. The results show that ChirpVLC can extend the transmission distance of 5W COTS LEDs to over 100 meters, and the distance/energy utility is increased by 532% compared to the existing work.

|abstract=In VANETs, it is important to support fast and reliable multi-hop broadcast for safety-related applications. The performance of multi-hop broadcast schemes is greatly affected by relay selection strategies. However, the relationship between the relay selection strategies and the expected broadcast performance has not been fully characterized yet. Furthermore, conventional broadcast schemes usually attempt to minimize the waiting time difference between adjacent relay candidates to reduce the waiting time overhead, which makes the relay selection process vulnerable to internal interference, occurring due to retransmissions from previous forwarders and transmissions from redundant relays. In this paper, we jointly take both of the relay selection and the internal interference mitigation into account and propose a fast, reliable, opportunistic multi-hop broadcast scheme, in which we utilize a novel metric called the expected broadcast speed in relay selection and propose a delayed retransmission mechanism to mitigate the adverse effect of retransmissions from previous forwarders and an expected redundancy probability based mechanism to mitigate the adverse effect of redundant relays. The performance evaluation results show that the proposed scheme yields the best broadcast performance among the four schemes in terms of the broadcast coverage ratio and the end-to-end delivery latency.

|abstract=Deploying deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to perform video analytics at edge poses a substantial system challenge, as running CNN inference incurs a prohibitive cost in computational resources. Model partitioning, as a promising approach, splits CNNs and distributes them to multiple edge devices in closer proximity to each other for serial inferences, however, it causes considerable cross-edge delay for transmitting intermediate feature maps. To overcome this challenge, we present ResMap, a new edge video analytics framework that significantly improves the cross-edge transmission and flexibly partitions the CNNs. Briefly, by exploiting the sparsity of the intermediate raw or residual feature map, ResMap effectively removes the redundant transmission, thereby decreasing the cross-edge transmission delay. In addition, ResMap incorporates an Online Data-Aware Scheduler to regularly update the CNN partitioning scheme so as to adapt to the time-varying edge runtime and video content. We have implemented ResMap fully based on COTS hardware, and the experimental results show that ResMap reduces the intermediate feature map volume by 14.93-46.12% and improves the average processing time by 17.43-30.6% compared to other alternative designs.

|abstract=Serverless applications are typically composed of function workflows in which multiple short-lived functions are triggered to exchange data in response to events or state changes. Current serverless platforms coordinate and trigger functions by following high-level invocation dependencies but are oblivious to the underlying data exchanges between functions. This design is neither efficient nor easy to use in orchestrating complex workflows – developers often have to manage complex function interactions by themselves, with customized implementation and unsatisfactory performance. In this paper, we argue that function orchestration should follow a data-centric approach. In our design, the platform provides a data bucket abstraction to hold the intermediate data generated by functions. Developers can use a rich set of data trigger primitives to control when and how the output of each function should be passed to the next functions in a workflow. By making data consumption explicit and allowing it to trigger functions and drive the workflow, complex function interactions can be easily and efficiently supported. We present Pheromone – a scalable, low-latency serverless platform following this data-centric design. Compared to well-established commercial and open-source platforms, Pheromone cuts the latencies of function interactions and data exchanges by orders of magnitude, scales to large workflows, and enables easy implementation of complex applications.
