We propose PAIO, the first general-purpose framework that enables system designers to build custom-made Software-Defined Storage (SDS) data plane stages. It provides the means to implement storage optimizations adaptable to different workflows and user-defined policies, and allows straightforward integration with existing applications and I/O layers. PAIO allows stages to be integrated with modern SDS control planes to ensure holistic control and system-wide optimal performance. We demonstrate the performance and applicability of PAIO with two use cases. The first improves 99th percentile latency by 4x in industry-standard LSM-based key-value stores. The second ensures dynamic per-application bandwidth guarantees under shared storage environments.

Modern embedded technology is a driving factor in satellite miniaturization, contributing to a massive boom in satellite launches and a rapidly evolving new space industry. Miniaturized satellites, however, suffer from low reliability, as traditional
hardware-based fault-tolerance (FT) concepts are ineffective for on-board computers (OBCs) utilizing modern systems-on-a-chip (SoC). Therefore, larger satellites continue to rely on proven processors with large feature sizes. Software-based concepts have largely been ignored by the space industry as they were researched only in theory, and have not yet reached the level of maturity necessary for implementation. We present the first integral, real-world solution to enable fault-tolerant general-purpose computing with modern multiprocessor-SoCs (MPSoCs) for spaceflight, thereby enabling their use in future high-priority space missions. The presented multi-stage approach consists of three FT stages, combining coarse-grained thread-level distributed self-validation, FPGA reconfiguration, and mixed criticality to assure long-term FT and excellent scalability for both resource constrained and critical high-priority space missions. Early benchmark results indicate a drastic performance increase over state-of-the-art radiation-hard OBC designs and considerably lower software- and hardware development costs. This approach was developed for a 4-year European Space Agency (ESA) project, and we are implementing a tiled MPSoC prototype jointly with two industrial partners.
Software-Defined Network (SDN) radically changes the network architecture by decoupling the network logic from the underlying forwarding devices. This architectural change rejuvenates the network-layer granting centralized management and re-programma
bility of the networks. From a security perspective, SDN separates security concerns into control and data plane, and this architectural recomposition brings up exciting opportunities and challenges. The overall perception is that SDN capabilities will ultimately result in improved security. However, in its raw form, SDN could potentially make networks more vulnerable to attacks and harder to protect. In this paper, we focus on identifying challenges faced in securing the data plane of SDN - one of the least explored but most critical components of this technology. We formalize this problem space, identify potential attack scenarios while highlighting possible vulnerabilities and establish a set of requirements and challenges to protect the data plane of SDNs. Moreover, we undertake a survey of existing solutions with respect to the identified threats, identifying their limitations and offer future research directions.
Enforcing data protection and privacy rules within large data processing applications is becoming increasingly important, especially in the light of GDPR and similar regulatory frameworks. Most modern data processing happens on top of a distributed s
torage layer, and securing this layer against accidental or malicious misuse is crucial to ensuring global privacy guarantees. However, the performance overhead and the additional complexity for this is often assumed to be significant -- in this work we describe a path forward that tackles both challenges. We propose Software-Defined Data Protection (SDP), an adoption of the Software-Defined Storage approach to non-performance aspects: a trusted controller translates company and application-specific policies to a set of rules deployed on the storage nodes. These, in turn, apply the rules at line-rate but do not take any decisions on their own. Such an approach decouples often changing policies from request-level enforcement and allows storage nodes to implement the latter more efficiently. Even though in-storage processing brings challenges, mainly because it can jeopardize line-rate processing, we argue that todays Smart Storage solutions can already implement the required functionality, thanks to the separation of concerns introduced by SDP. We highlight the challenges that remain, especially that of trusting the storage nodes. These need to be tackled before we can reach widespread adoption in cloud environments.
Networks are vulnerable to disruptions caused by malicious forwarding devices. The situation is likely to worsen in Software Defined Networks (SDNs) with the incompatibility of existing solutions, use of programmable soft switches and the potential o
f bringing down an entire network through compromised forwarding devices. In this paper, we present WedgeTail, an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) designed to secure the SDN data plane. WedgeTail regards forwarding devices as points within a geometric space and stores the path packets take when traversing the network as trajectories. To be efficient, it prioritizes forwarding devices before inspection using an unsupervised trajectory-based sampling mechanism. For each of the forwarding device, WedgeTail computes the expected and actual trajectories of packets and `hunts for any forwarding device not processing packets as expected. Compared to related work, WedgeTail is also capable of distinguishing between malicious actions such as packet drop and generation. Moreover, WedgeTail employs a radically different methodology that enables detecting threats autonomously. In fact, it has no reliance on pre-defined rules by an administrator and may be easily imported to protect SDN networks with different setups, forwarding devices, and controllers. We have evaluated WedgeTail in simulated environments, and it has been capable of detecting and responding to all implanted malicious forwarding devices within a reasonable time-frame. We report on the design, implementation, and evaluation of WedgeTail in this manuscript.
We describe a software framework for solving user equilibrium traffic assignment problems. The design is based on the formulation of the problem as a variational inequality. The software implements these as well as several numerical methods for find
equilirbria. We compare the solutions obtained under several models: static, Merchant-Nemhauser, `CTM with instantaneous travel time, and `CTM with actual travel time. Some important differences are demonstrated.
