SEMPER: A Stateless Traffic Engineering Solution for WAN based on MP-TCP

Ginés García Avilés, PhD Student, IMDEA Networks & Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain
Enterprise Networking has a strong set of requirements in terms of resiliency, reliability and resources usage. With current approaches being based on monolithic and expensive infrastructures using dedicated overlay links, providers are moving to more economical hybrid solutions that encompass private dedicated links with public/regular Internet connections.

Formalizing and Implementing Distributed Ledger Objects

Antonio Fernández Anta, Research Professor, IMDEA Networks Institute, Spain
Despite the hype about blockchains and distributed ledgers, no formal abstraction of these objects has been proposed. To face this issue, in this paper we provide a proper formulation of a distributed ledger object. In brief, we define a ledger object as a sequence of records, and we provide the operations and the properties that such an object should support.

Indoor Localization Using Commercial Off-The-Shelf 60 GHz Access Points

Guillermo Bielsa, PhD Student, IMDEA Networks & Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain
The very large bandwidth available in the 60 GHz band allows, in principle, to design highly accurate positioning systems. Integrating such systems with standard protocols (e.g., IEEE 802.11ad) is crucial for the deployment of location-based services, but it is also challenging and limits the design choices. Another key problem is that consumer-grade 60 GHz hardware only provides coarse channel state information, and has highly irregular beam shapes due to its cost-efficient design.
