Netscope: Practical Network Loss Tomography

Patrick Thiran, Aikaterini Argyraki, Xuan Hung Nguyen, Maciej Kurant, Denisa Gabriela Ghita

We present Netscope, a tomographic technique that infers the loss rates of network links from unicast end-to-end measurements. Netscope uses a novel combination of first- and second-order moments of end-to-end measurements to identify and characterize the ...

Balanced relay allocation on heterogeneous unstructured overlays

Patrick Thiran, Matthias Grossglauser, Xuan Hung Nguyen

Due to the increased usage of NAT boxes and firewalls, it has become harder for applications to establish direct connections seamlessly among two end-hosts. A recently, adopted proposal to mitigate this problem is to use relay nodes, end-hosts that act as ...

User-level Internet tomography and overlay routing

Xuan Hung Nguyen

In this thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...

The Boolean Solution to the Congested IP Link Location Problem: Theory and Practice

Patrick Thiran, Xuan Hung Nguyen

Like other problems in network tomography or traffic matrix estimation, the location of congested IP links from end-to-end measurements requires solving a system of equations that relate the measurement outcomes with the variables representing the status o ...

Network Loss Inference with Second Order Statistics of End-to-End Flows

Patrick Thiran, Xuan Hung Nguyen

We address the problem of calculating link loss rates from end-to-end measurements. Contrary to existing works that use only the average end-to-end loss rates or strict temporal correlations between probes, we exploit second-order moments of end-to-end flo ...

Using End-to-End Data to Infer Lossy Links in Sensor Networks

Patrick Thiran, Xuan Hung Nguyen

Compared to wired networks, sensor networks pose two additional challenges for monitoring functions: they support much less probing traffic, and they change their routing topologies much more frequently. We propose therefore to use only end-to-end applicat ...
