Simulate Before Sending: Rethinking Transport in Datacenter Networks

Authors: Dan Straussman, Isaac Keslassy, Alexander Shpiner, and Liran Liss

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


Abstract
Existing transport protocols in commodity datacenter networks struggle to provide low collective completion times (CCTs) to AI training collectives, as packet losses and retransmissions significantly degrade performance. We propose dcSim, an efficient transport that achieves low CCTs and practically lossless performance with commodity switches. In dcSim, each packet first employs a small simulation probe to traverse the network and explore congestion along a candidate path. Only packets whose simulation probes succeed are then transmitted, expecting to succeed as well. Evaluations confirm that dcSim achieves faster CCTs than existing schemes, with small queues and virtually zero packet loss. Finally, dcSim also excels in adverse conditions, including oversubscribed topologies.

Routing in Stochastic Public Transit Networks

Authors: Barbara Geissmann and Lukas Gianinazzi

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 75, 19th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2019)


Abstract
We present robust, adaptive routing policies for time-varying networks (temporal graphs) in the presence of random edge-failures. Such a policy answers the following question: How can a traveler navigate a time-varying network where edges fail randomly in order to maximize the traveler’s preference with respect to the arrival time? Our routing policy is computable in near-linear time in the number of edges in the network (for the case when the edges fail independently of each other). Using our robust routing policy, we show how to travel in a public transit network where the vehicles experience delays. To validate our approach, we present experiments using real-world delay data from the public transit network of the city of Zurich. Our experiments show that we obtain significantly improved outcomes compared to a purely schedule-based policy: The traveler is on time 5-11 percentage points more often for most destinations and 20-40 percentage points more often for certain remote destinations. Our implementation shows that the approach is fast enough for real-time usage. It computes a policy for 1-hour long journeys in around 0.1 seconds.
