abstract = {There is a growing move to offload functionality, e.g., TCP or key-value stores, into programmable networks - either on SmartNICs or programmable switches. While offloading promises significant performance boosts, these programmable devices often provide little visibility into their performance. Moreover, many existing tools for analyzing and debugging performance problems, e.g., distributed tracing, do not extend into these devices.Motivated by this lack of visibility, we present the design and implementation of an observability framework called Foxhound, which introduces a co-designed query language, compiler, and storage abstraction layer for expressing, capturing and analyzing distributed traces and their performance data across an infrastructure comprising servers and programmable data planes. While general, Foxhound's query language offers optimized constructs which can circumvent limitations of programmable devices by pushing down operations to hardware. We have evaluated Foxhound using a Tofino switch and a large scale simulator. Our evaluations show that our storage layer can support common tracing tasks and detect associated problems at scale.},

abstract = {Summary Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) can be integrated with Device-to-Device (D2D) communications to enable the exploitation of unused spectrum portions and to address the spectrum scarcity problem. Spectrum management mechanisms integrated into DSA and D2D allow low-power communications between User Equipments without interfering with licensed primary users. However, these mechanisms tend to be energy and processing intensive, being unfeasible to implement in User Equipments with strict battery and processing limitations. On the other hand, Cloud Radio Access Networks already leverage the virtually unlimited computing capacity of clouds for baseband processing functions. Thus, in this article, we propose the Cognitive Radio Device-to-Device (CRD2D) approach aiming to offload spectrum management functionality to the cloud taking advantage of Cloud Radio Access Networks architecture to support the integration of DSA and D2D.},

abstract = {Summary The expansion of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)–for-hire websites, known as Booters, has radically modified both the scope and stakes of DDoS attacks. Until recently, however, Booters have only received little attention from the research community. Given their impact, addressing the challenges associated with this phenomenon is crucial. In this paper, we present a rigorous methodology to identify a comprehensive set of existing Booters in the Internet. Before presenting our methodology, we illustrate the benefits of a set of booters on monitoring users from the Dutch NREN, SURFNet, from 2015 to 2017. Our methodology relies on well-defined mechanisms to generate a Booter list, from crawling suspect URLs to characterizing and classifying the collected URLs. The list obtained using the methodology presented in this paper has a classification accuracy of 95.5%, which is 10.5% better compared to previous work.},
