Distributed Systems
Scalable and fault-tolerant distributed architectures for data-intensive and latency-sensitive applications.
DNSLAB conducts research on distributed systems, computer networking, and cloud & edge computing, aiming to build scalable, reliable, and secure networked systems.
DNSLAB (Distributed Networks and Systems Laboratory) at Chonnam National University conducts leading research in distributed networks and systems, with a focus on software-defined networking (SDN), network security, big data platforms, and AI-driven networking.
The lab designs and evaluates scalable, reliable networked systems such as peer-to-peer overlays, social networking systems, content distribution networks, and GRID/Cloud platforms for large-scale distributed environments. In SDN/NFV based next-generation network architectures, DNSLAB studies traffic engineering, middlebox placement, and network function virtualization.
A major research thrust is practical network security: detecting and mitigating DDoS and flooding attacks, as well as security threats in IoT and cyber-physical systems. The lab applies deep learning, machine learning, and reinforcement learning to anomaly detection, traffic prediction, and collaborative attack detection, and validates these techniques on real data-center, cloud, and IoT networks.
DNSLAB also develops big data collection, storage, and processing platforms and builds AI-powered applications in domains such as agriculture, healthcare, and smart cities. By combining technologies like Hadoop, Spark, and large-scale learning with real-world datasets, the lab aims to create trustworthy, intelligent networked services and to train the next generation of ICT convergence experts.
We focus on the design, implementation, and evaluation of next-generation networked systems.
