Formalizing Rollback Netcodes for Robust and Real-Time Client-Server Architectures

Authors: Yérom-David Bromberg, Jérémie Decouchant, Manon Sourisseau, and François Taïani

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)


Abstract
The rapid growth of the gaming industry has made netcodes (the part of an online game’s source code that handles networking and synchronization) a critical component of the online multiplayer experience. Among various approaches, rollback netcodes have become a popular choice for real-time games due to their ability to enhance responsiveness and player immersion. However, despite their widespread adoption, these netcodes remain susceptible to subtle latency-based attacks that can be challenging to detect. Notably, while rollback netcodes play a critical role in the gaming industry and share similarities with synchronization mechanisms in distributed systems, they have received relatively limited attention in academic research. In this work, we present a formal specification of rollback netcodes and identify key behavioral properties and requirements to strengthen their resilience against latency-based attacks that are prevalent in gaming, such as lag-switch and DDoS attacks. Our analysis allows us to explore the trade-offs between preserving immersive gameplay and ensuring security. Our findings reveal that ideal immersion requires strict assumptions about network latency, which are unattainable in adversarial environments where message delays are inevitable.

FaaSLoad: Fine-Grained Performance and Resource Measurement for Function-As-a-Service

Authors: Mathieu Bacou

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 324, 28th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2024)


Abstract
Cloud computing relies on a deep stack of system layers: virtual machine, operating system, distributed middleware and language runtime. However, those numerous, distributed, virtual layers prevent any low-level understanding of the properties of FaaS applications, considered as programs running on real hardware. As a result, most research analyses only consider coarse-grained properties such as global performance of an application, and existing datasets include only sparse data. FaaSLoad is a tool to gather fine-grained data about performance and resource usage of the programs that run on Function-as-a-Service cloud platforms. It considers individual instances of functions to collect hardware and operating-system performance information, by monitoring them while injecting a workload. FaaSLoad helps building a dataset of function executions to train machine learning models, studying at fine grain the behavior of function runtimes, and replaying real workload traces for in situ observations. This research software project aims at being useful to cloud system researchers with features such as guaranteeing reproducibility and correctness, and keeping up with realistic FaaS workloads. Our evaluations show that FaaSLoad helps us understanding the properties of FaaS applications, and studying the latter under real conditions.

Abstract
In the last decade, there has been a growing interest in applying AI technologies to implement complex data analytics over data streams. To this end, researchers in various fields have been organising a yearly event called the "Stream Reasoning Workshop" to share perspectives, challenges, and experiences around this topic. In this paper, the previous organisers of the workshops and other community members provide a summary of the main research results that have been discussed during the first six editions of the event. These results can be categorised into four main research areas: The first is concerned with the technological challenges related to handling large data streams. The second area aims at adapting and extending existing semantic technologies to data streams. The third and fourth areas focus on how to implement reasoning techniques, either considering deductive or inductive techniques, to extract new and valuable knowledge from the data in the stream. This summary is written not only to provide a crystallisation of the field, but also to point out distinctive traits of the stream reasoning community. Moreover, it also provides a foundation for future research by enumerating a list of use cases and open challenges, to stimulate others to join this exciting research area.

ThingsMigrate: Platform-Independent Migration of Stateful JavaScript IoT Applications

Authors: Julien Gascon-Samson, Kumseok Jung, Shivanshu Goyal, Armin Rezaiean-Asel, and Karthik Pattabiraman

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 109, 32nd European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2018)


Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained wide popularity both in academic and industrial contexts. As IoT devices become increasingly powerful, they can run more and more complex applications written in higher-level languages, such as JavaScript. However, by their nature, IoT devices are subject to resource constraints, which require applications to be dynamically migrated between devices (and the cloud). Further, IoT applications are also becoming more stateful, and hence we need to save their state during migration transparently to the programmer. In this paper, we present ThingsMigrate, a middleware providing VM-independent migration of stateful JavaScript applications across IoT devices. ThingsMigrate captures and reconstructs the internal JavaScript program state by instrumenting application code before run time, without modifying the underlying Virtual Machine (VM), thus providing platform and VM-independence. We evaluated ThingsMigrate against standard benchmarks, and over two IoT platforms and a cloud-like environment. We show that it can successfully migrate even highly CPU-intensive applications, with acceptable overheads (about 30%), and supports multiple migrations.
