Scalable Routing in a City-Scale Wi-Fi Network for Disaster Recovery

Authors: Ziqian Liu, Om Chabra, James Lynch, Aaron Martin, Chenning Li, and Hari Balakrishnan

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 139, 1st New Ideas in Networked Systems (NINeS 2026)


Abstract
This paper presents CityMesh, a city-scale decentralized mesh network designed for disaster recovery and emergency scenarios. When wide-area Internet connectivity is unavailable or severely degraded, CityMesh leverages both static access points and mobile devices equipped with Wi-Fi to provide intra-city connectivity and reach opportunistic gateways to the Internet (e.g., via satellite links). The main contribution of this paper is a scalable routing protocol that supports millions of devices, addressing a long-standing limitation of wireless mesh and mobile ad hoc networks. Unlike prior approaches, CityMesh exploits rich building-location and building-geometry data from widely available city maps to guide route computation, improving packet delivery while significantly reducing transmission overhead. Simulation results from 70 cities show that CityMesh improves packet delivery rates by 88% over WEAVE (a state-of-the-art geographic routing protocol). A campus-scale deployment of 300 Wi-Fi devices across 31 buildings shows the practical deployability of CityMesh. These results demonstrate the promise of map-aware routing as a foundation for scalable, resilient city-wide Wi-Fi networks.

Quasi Isolation QoS Setups to Control MPSoC Contention in Integrated Software Architectures

Authors: Sergio Garcia-Esteban, Alejandro Serrano-Cases, Jaume Abella, Enrico Mezzetti, and Francisco J. Cazorla

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 262, 35th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2023)


Abstract
The use of integrated architectures, such as integrated modular avionics (IMA) in avionics, IMA-SP in space, and AUTOSAR in automotive, running on Multi-Processor System-on-Chip (MPSoC) is on the rise. Timing isolation among the different software partitions or applications thereof in an integrated architecture is key to simplifying software integration and its timing validation by ensuring the performance of each partition has no or very limited impact on others despite they share MPSoC’s hardware resources. In this work, we contend that the increasing hardware support for Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees in modern MPSoCs can be leveraged via specific setups to provide strong, albeit not full, isolation among different software partitions. We introduce the concept of Quasi Isolation QoS (QIQoS) setups and instantiate it in the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+. To that end, out of the millions of setups offered by the different QoS mechanisms, we identify specific QoS configurations that isolate the traffic of time-critical software partitions executing in the core cluster from that generated by contender partitions in the programmable logic. Our results show that the selected isolation setup results in performance variations of the partitions run in the computing cores that are below 6 percentage points, even under scenarios with extremely high traffic coming from the programmable logic.
