Quanta is presented, a redundancy-aware simulation framework that eliminates repeated execution in packet-level simulation and reduces the dependence of simulation cost on physical network scale.
Abstract
Packet-level network simulation provides high-fidelity modeling but suffers from severe scalability bottlenecks. Existing scaling approaches remain inefficient for modern data-center and AI-training networks. Spatial parallelism requires substantial hardware resources, while temporal-skipping approaches become less effective under bursty traffic. We observe that homogeneous data-center deployments introduce substantial execution redundancy during simulation. This paper presents Quanta, a redundancy-aware simulation framework that eliminates repeated execution in packet-level simulation. Quanta reduces the dependence of simulation cost on physical network scale. Our evaluation shows that Quanta accelerates large-scale simulations by up to 90 × , synergizes with parallel execution for a 320 × combined speedup.

In the performance evaluation of communication networks, packet-level simulation entails enormous computational costs under conditions such as large-scale networks or numerous communicating flows, leading to issues where execution time exceeds practical limits. In contrast, flow-level simulation, which approximates tra...
To overcome data movement bottlenecks, we propose a unified host and device interaction architecture for computational storage. Our framework facilitates data offloading through a host dispatch engine and a device admission controller. Evaluated using a storage simulator across vector and genomic datasets, our prototyp...
Evaluation results show that, while these mechanisms consume a small amount of link bandwidth, CBFC can greatly reduce receive buffer utilization, and LLR can substantially mitigate network performance degradation caused by packet corruption.
