    Service-Aware Multi-Resource Allocation in Software-Defined Next Generation Cellular Networks
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2018) Arslan, Şuayb Şefik; Zeydan, Engin; Narmanloğlu, Ömer; Narmanlioglu, Omer
    Network slicing is one of the major solutions needed to meet the requirements of next generation cellular networks, under one common network infrastructure, in supporting multiple vertical services provided by mobile network operators. Network slicing makes one shared physical network infrastructure appear as multiple logically isolated virtual networks dedicated to different service types where each Network Slice (NS) benefits from on-demand allocated resources. Typically, the available resources distributed among NSs are correlated and one needs to allocate them judiciously in order to guarantee the service, MNO, and overall system qualities. In this paper, we consider a joint resource allocation strategy that weights the significance of the resources per a given NS by leveraging the correlation structure of different quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of the services. After defining the joint resource allocation problem including the correlation structure, we propose three novel scheduling mechanisms that allocate available network resources to the generated NSs based on different type of services with different QoS requirements. Performance of the proposed schedulers are then investigated through Monte-Carlo simulations and compared with each other as well as against a traditional max-min fairness algorithm benchmark. The results reveal that our schedulers, which have different complexities, outperform the benchmark traditional method in terms of service-based and overall satisfaction ratios, while achieving different fairness index levels.

    A Reliability Model for Dependent and Distributed Mds Disk Array Units
    (IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 2019) Arslan, Şuayb Şefik
    Archiving and systematic backup of large digital data generates a quick demand for multi-petabyte scale storage systems. As drive capacities continue to grow beyond the few terabytes range to address the demands of today’s cloud, the likelihood of having multiple/simultaneous disk failures became a reality. Among the main factors causing catastrophic system failures, correlated disk failures and the network bandwidth are reported to be the two common source of performance degradation. The emerging trend is to use efficient/sophisticated erasure codes (EC) equipped with multiple parities and efficient repairs in order to meet the reliability/bandwidth requirements. It is known that mean time to failure and repair rates reported by the disk manufacturers cannot capture life-cycle patterns of distributed storage systems. In this study, we develop failure models based on generalized Markov chains that can accurately capture correlated performance degradations with multiparity protection schemes based on modern maximum distance separable EC. Furthermore, we use the proposed model in a distributed storage scenario to quantify two example use cases: Primarily, the common sense that adding more parity disks are only meaningful if we have a decent decorrelation between the failure domains of storage systems and the reliability of generic multiple single-dimensional EC protected storage systems.

    Face Recognition With Patch-Based Local Walsh Transform
    (Elsevier, 2018) Uzun-Per, Meryem; Gökmen, Muhittin
    In this paper, we present a novel dense local image representation method called Local Walsh Transform (LWT)by applying the well-known Walsh Transform (WT) to each pixel of an image. The LWT decomposes an image into multiple components, and produces LWT complex images by using the symmetrical relationship between them. Cascaded LWT (CLWT) is also a dense local image representation obtained by applying the LWT again to real and imaginary parts of LWT complex images. Applying the LWT once more to real and imaginary parts of LWT complex images increases the success rate especially on low resolution images. In order to combine the advantages of sparse and dense local image representations, we present Patch-based LWT (PLWT) and Patch-based CLWT (PCLWT) by applying the LWT and CLWT, respectively, to patches extracted around landmarks of multi-scaled face images. The extracted high dimensional features of the patches are reduced through the application of the Whitened Principal Component Analysis (WPCA). Experimental results show that both thePLWT and PCLWT are robust to illumination and expression changes, occlusion and low resolution. The state-of-the-art performance is achieved on the FERET and SCface databases, and the second best unsupervised category result is achieved on the LFW database.
