In this paper, we work to understand the global IPX network from the perspective of an MVNO. In order to do this, we provide a brief description of the global architecture of mobile carriers. We provide initial results with respect to mapping the vast and complex interconnection network enabling global roaming from the point of view of a single MVNO. Finally, we provide preliminary results regarding the quality of service observed under global roaming conditions.
The emerging serverless computing may meet Edge Cloud in a beneficial manner as the two offer flexibility and dynamicity in optimizing finite hardware resources. However, the lack of proper study of a joint platform leaves a gap in literature about consumption and performance of such integration. To this end, this paper identifies the key questions and proposes a methodology to answer them.
The Fifth Generation (5G) communication technology, its infrastructure and architecture, though already deployed in campus and small scale networks, is still undergoing continuous changes and research. Especially, in the light of future large scale deployments and industrial use cases, a detailed analysis of the performance and utilization with regard to latency and service times constraints is crucial. To this end, a fine granular investigation of the Network Function (NF) based core system and the duration for all the tasks performed by these services is necessary. This work presents the first steps towards analyzing the signaling traffic in 5G core networks, and introduces a tool to automatically extract sequence diagrams and service times for NF tasks from traffic traces.
Understanding the Performance of Different Packet Reception and Timestamping Methods in Linux
(2023)
This document briefly presents some renowned packet reception techniques for network packets in Linux systems. Further, it compares their performance when measuring packet timestamps with respect to throughput and accuracy. Both software and hardware timestamps are compared, and various parameters are examined, including frame size, link speed, network interface card, and CPU load. The results indicate that hardware timestamping offers significantly better accuracy with no downsides, and that packet reception techniques that avoid system calls offer superior measurement throughput.
The holy grail of structural biology is to study a protein in situ, and this goal has been fast approaching since the resolution revolution and the achievement of atomic resolution. A cell's interior is not a dilute environment, and proteins have evolved to fold and function as needed in that environment; as such, an investigation of a cellular component should ideally include the full complexity of the cellular environment. Imaging whole cells in three dimensions using electron cryotomography is the best method to accomplish this goal, but it comes with a limitation on sample thickness and produces noisy data unamenable to direct analysis. This thesis establishes a novel workflow to systematically analyse whole-cell electron cryotomography data in three dimensions and to find and identify instances of protein complexes in the data to set up a determination of their structure and identity for success. Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a very small parasitic bacterium with fewer than 700 protein-coding genes, is thin enough and small enough to be imaged in large quantities by electron cryotomography, and can grow directly on the grids used for imaging, making it ideal for exploratory studies in structural proteomics. As part of the workflow, a methodology for training deep-learning-based particle-picking models is established.
As a proof of principle, a dataset of whole-cell Mycoplasma pneumoniae tomograms is used with this workflow to characterize a novel membrane-associated complex observed in the data. Ultimately, 25431 such particles are picked from 353 tomograms and refined to a density map with a resolution of 11 Å. Making good use of orthogonal datasets to filter search space and verify results, structures were predicted for candidate proteins and checked for suitable fit in the density map. In the end, with this approach, nine proteins were found to be part of the complex, which appears to be associated with chaperone activity and interact with translocon machinery.
Visual proteomics refers to the ultimate potential of in situ electron cryotomography: the comprehensive interpretation of tomograms. The workflow presented here is demonstrated to help in reaching that potential.
In this work, we describe the network from data collection to data processing and storage as a system based on different layers. We outline the different layers and highlight major tasks and dependencies with regard to energy consumption and energy efficiency. With this view, we can outwork challenges and questions a future system architect must answer to provide a more sustainable, green, resource friendly, and energy efficient application or system. Therefore, all system layers must be considered individually but also altogether for future IoT solutions. This requires, in particular, novel sustainability metrics in addition to current Quality of Service and Quality of Experience metrics to provide a high power, user satisfying, and sustainable network.
Climate models are the tool of choice for scientists researching climate change. Like all models they suffer from errors, particularly systematic and location-specific representation errors. One way to reduce these errors is model output statistics (MOS) where the model output is fitted to observational data with machine learning. In this work, we assess the use of convolutional Deep Learning climate MOS approaches and present the ConvMOS architecture which is specifically designed based on the observation that there are systematic and location-specific errors in the precipitation estimates of climate models. We apply ConvMOS models to the simulated precipitation of the regional climate model REMO, showing that a combination of per-location model parameters for reducing location-specific errors and global model parameters for reducing systematic errors is indeed beneficial for MOS performance. We find that ConvMOS models can reduce errors considerably and perform significantly better than three commonly used MOS approaches and plain ResNet and U-Net models in most cases. Our results show that non-linear MOS models underestimate the number of extreme precipitation events, which we alleviate by training models specialized towards extreme precipitation events with the imbalanced regression method DenseLoss. While we consider climate MOS, we argue that aspects of ConvMOS may also be beneficial in other domains with geospatial data, such as air pollution modeling or weather forecasts.
An important but very time consuming part of the research process is literature review. An already large and nevertheless growing ground set of publications as well as a steadily increasing publication rate continue to worsen the situation. Consequently, automating this task as far as possible is desirable. Experimental results of systems are key-insights of high importance during literature review and usually represented in form of tables. Our pipeline KIETA exploits these tables to contribute to the endeavor of automation by extracting them and their contained knowledge from scientific publications. The pipeline is split into multiple steps to guarantee modularity as well as analyzability, and agnosticim regarding the specific scientific domain up until the knowledge extraction step, which is based upon an ontology. Additionally, a dataset of corresponding articles has been manually annotated with information regarding table and knowledge extraction. Experiments show promising results that signal the possibility of an automated system, while also indicating limits of extracting knowledge from tables without any context.
The ongoing digitization of historical photographs in archives allows investigating the quality, quantity, and distribution of these images. However, the exact interior and exterior camera orientations of these photographs are usually lost during the digitization process. The proposed method uses content-based image retrieval (CBIR) to filter exterior images of single buildings in combination with metadata information. The retrieved photographs are automatically processed in an adapted structure-from-motion (SfM) pipeline to determine the camera parameters. In an interactive georeferencing process, the calculated camera positions are transferred into a global coordinate system. As all image and camera data are efficiently stored in the proposed 4D database, they can be conveniently accessed afterward to georeference newly digitized images by using photogrammetric triangulation and spatial resection. The results show that the CBIR and the subsequent SfM are robust methods for various kinds of buildings and different quantity of data. The absolute accuracy of the camera positions after georeferencing lies in the range of a few meters likely introduced by the inaccurate LOD2 models used for transformation. The proposed photogrammetric method, the database structure, and the 4D visualization interface enable adding historical urban photographs and 3D models from other locations.
Digitization and transcription of historic documents offer new research opportunities for humanists and are the topics of many edition projects. However, manual work is still required for the main phases of layout recognition and the subsequent optical character recognition (OCR) of early printed documents. This paper describes and evaluates how deep learning approaches recognize text lines and can be extended to layout recognition using background knowledge. The evaluation was performed on five corpora of early prints from the 15th and 16th Centuries, representing a variety of layout features. While the main text with standard layouts could be recognized in the correct reading order with a precision and recall of up to 99.9%, also complex layouts were recognized at a rate as high as 90% by using background knowledge, the full potential of which was revealed if many pages of the same source were transcribed.
