Rethinking AI Cloud Infrastructure for Agentic Serving Systems with the Aries Experimentation Framework

Autonomous agents challenge conventional LLM serving by coupling repeated inference with persistent context and sandboxed tool execution. We present Aries, a full-stack experimentation framework that separates task semantics from execution configurations, reconstructs cross-component agent...

NetSecBed: A Container-Native Testbed for Reproducible Cybersecurity Experimentation

Cybersecurity research increasingly depends on reproducible evidence, such as traffic traces, logs, and labeled datasets, yet most public datasets remain static and offer limited support for controlled re-execution and traceability, especially in heterogeneous multi-protocol environments. This...

ConCap: Practical Network Traffic Generation for Flow-Based Intrusion Detection Systems

Network Intrusion Detection Systems NIDS have been studied in research for almost four decades. Yet, despite thousands of papers claiming scientific advances, a non-negligible number of recent works suggest that the findings of prior literature may be questionable. At the root of such a...

Auto-SGCR: Automated Generation of Smart Grid Cyber Range Using IEC 61850 Standard Models

Digitalization of power grids have made them increasingly susceptible to cyber-attacks in the past decade. Iterative cybersecurity testing is indispensable to counter emerging attack vectors and to ensure dependability of critical infrastructure. Furthermore, these can be used to evaluate...
