Distributed In-network Computing

Introduction

In-network computing offloads server-based applications to programmable devices. However, network devices are very resource-constrained compared to servers. This project aims to scale in-network computing algorithms further via distributed deployment. This project can also be used as an extension of the in-network ML project.

Research has focused on enabling on-device functionality, with limited consideration to distributed in-network computing. This paper explores the applicability of distributed computing to in-network computing and presents DINC, a framework enabling distributed in-network computing, generating deployment strategies, overcoming resource constraints and providing functionality guarantees across a network.
