🚀 Can AI transport protocols understand computation–not just packets? Our SAFS paper has been accepted at ICNP 2026. SAFS uses receiver-driven semantic-flow scheduling so computation-critical communication arrives before pipeline bubbles form. 📄 Paper overview: dirk-kutscher.info/publications...

🚀 Can we obtain the benefits of network-assisted multipath without changing Internet routing? Our MARS paper, accepted at IEEE ICNP 2026, explores exactly that with receiver-driven overlay forwarding. 📄 Paper + overview: dirk-kutscher.info/publications...

Interested in #MediaOverQUIC (#MoQ)? We’re excited to have two papers accepted at ACM Multimedia 2026 that explore robust and scalable media delivery over MoQ. A short thread 👇
