- Accelerating Big Data Analytics using Heterogeneous Resources
Motivation:
Internet of Things describes a new world of heterogeneous objects such as sensors, smartphones, actuators etc, which intelligently interacts and communicate with each other and offer a better quality of life. With the increase of these objects, the data volume is... Open Theses

- Learned Parallel Stream Processing using Zero-Shot Cost Models
Motivation
In Distributed Stream Processing Systems (DSPS), queries are usually long-running. They typically deal with a very high workload of million or even billion of events per second. Under such scenarios, parallelism plays an important role in providing scalability for... Open Theses

- Learning Request-Response Communication
Motivation
In most works with learnable communication, when and what to communicate is controlled in a decentralized manner by individual agents. This communication scheme assumes that agents are implicitly aware of the requirements of other agents and that they send them th... Open Theses

- Differentiable Communication over Network Simulations
Motivation
Learning approaches that include communicating agents are often evaluated in simplified toy environments and games. The communication is usually carried out over simplified communication channels and seldom considers properties of real networks. While some approac... Open Theses

- Opportunistic Routing in Time-Critical Wireless Networks
Motivation
A time-critical application of WSN is early warning of flash floods. In such a network, measurements must reach the sink within a certain deadline to be useful for early warning applications. Traditional routing is often based on single metrics, such as expected d... Open Theses

- Learning to Communicate for Service Placement
Motivation
Optimal scaling and placement of services in the network is very challenging. To achieve a good Quality of Service (QoS), latency-critical services should be placed close to the users, e.g. on the edge. However, resources on the edge are limited and users might mo... Open Theses

- Analysis of Control Plane Traffic in Heterogeneous 5G Networks
Motivation
In 5G networks, the functionality of the network can be distributed among different components and software functions. Disaggregation of the Radio Access Network and the service based architecture (SBA) of the core network enable open interfaces between virtualize... Open Theses
