Machine to machine (M2M) communications are expected to form one of the fundamental building blocks of the future Internet of Things (IoT). In view of the scarcity of spectrum and the service requirements of traditional users, providing network access to the extremely large number of devices in IoT and M2M scenarios is one of the fundamental problems for network designers and operators. As a possible solution to this issue, this paper explores the possibility of using the unlicensed industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band for supporting M2M communications while co-existing with traditional users of this band. Since IEEE 802.11 or WiFi based networks are the most common networking technology in the ISM band, this paper presents an evaluation of “white spaces” in WiFi networks (i.e. periods where the WiFi network is not using the channel) that may be used opportunistically for M2M communications. Using a MMPP/G/1/K queue to model the operation of a WiFi access point, we characterize the WiFi white spaces in terms of their frequency, duration, and their probability distribution. Our results show that WiFi white spaces provide considerable transmission opportunities that may be exploited for M2M communications.
机器对机器(M2M)通信有望成为未来物联网(IoT)的基本组成部分之一。鉴于频谱资源的稀缺和传统用户的业务需求,在物联网和M2M场景下,为海量设备提供网络接入是摆在网络设计者和运营商面前的根本问题之一。作为一种可能的解决方案,本文探讨了在与传统用户共存的情况下,利用未授权的工业、科学和医疗(ISM)频段支持M2M通信的可能性。由于IEEE 802.11或基于WiFi的网络是ISM频段中最常见的网络技术,因此本文对WiFi网络中的“空白空间”(即WiFi网络未使用信道的时期)进行了评估,这些空白空间可能被投机性地用于M2M通信。使用MMPP/G/1/K队列对WiFi接入点的运行进行建模,我们根据WiFi空白的频率、持续时间和概率分布来表征WiFi空白。我们的研究结果表明,WiFi空白空间提供了相当大的传输机会,可以用于M2M通信。

To solve the mobile traffic explosion problem, there have been many efforts to try to offload the mobile traffic from infrastructured cellular links to direct local short-range communications among users. In this paper, we propose a novel framework of traffic offloading by Tag-Assisted Social-Aware opportunistic sharing in mobile social networks, TASA, to offload traffic by device-to-device sharing. Based on the evaluation of the tags of users and contents, we select a subset of users who are likely to receive the same content as initial seeds depending on their spreading impacts in online SNSs and their mobility patterns in offline MSNs. Then users share the content via opportunistic local connectivity (e.g., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi Direct, LTE D2D) with each other. The observation from SNS activities reveals that individual users have distinct access patterns, which allows TASA to further exploit the user-dependent access delay between the content generation time and each users access time for traffic offloading purposes. We model and analyze the traffic offloading and content spreading among users by taking into account various options in linking SNS and MSN trace data. The trace-driven evaluation demonstrates that TASA can reduce up to 78.9% of the cellular traffic.
为了解决移动流量爆炸问题,人们已经做了很多努力,试图将移动流量从基础设施蜂窝链路卸载到用户之间的直接本地短距离通信中。在本文中,我们提出了一种在移动社交网络中通过标签辅助的社会意识机会共享来卸载流量的新框架,即TASA,通过设备到设备共享来卸载流量。基于对用户和内容标签的评估,我们选择了一个用户子集,根据他们在在线社交网络中的传播影响和他们在离线msn中的移动模式,他们可能会收到与初始种子相同的内容。然后用户通过本地连接(如蓝牙、Wi-Fi Direct、LTE D2D)彼此共享内容。对SNS活动的观察表明,单个用户具有不同的访问模式,这使得TASA可以进一步利用内容生成时间和每个用户访问时间之间的用户依赖访问延迟来实现流量分流。我们通过考虑链接SNS和MSN跟踪数据的各种选项来建模和分析用户之间的流量卸载和内容传播。跟踪驱动的评估表明,TASA可以减少高达78.9%的蜂窝流量。

Information Centric Networks (ICN) enable accessing data oblivious of its location, by allowing end-systems to retrieve content based on names. But, architectures such as Named Data Networking (NDN) and Content Oriented Publish/Subscribe System (COPSS) do not yet provide a mechanism for end-system applications to obtain these names. There is a need for an object resolution system that addresses a most important and as yet unimplemented component of obtaining a name in ICN. In this paper, we propose ORICE, an architectural design for Object Resolution services in Information-Centric Environment that satisfies this need. The architecture enables intelligent resolution service by placing the service in the application layer and allows for the service diversity by separating the name space management from resolution service. Through preliminary evaluation, we show that with the help of ORICE, the states stored in the network can be dramatically reduced while ensuring complete data delivery.
信息中心网络(Information Centric Networks, ICN)允许终端系统根据名称检索内容,从而使访问数据不受其位置的影响。但是,命名数据网络(NDN)和面向内容的发布/订阅系统(COPSS)等体系结构尚未为终端系统应用程序提供获取这些名称的机制。需要一个对象解析系统来解决在ICN中获取名称的最重要但尚未实现的组成部分。本文提出了一种信息中心环境下的对象解析服务体系结构设计——ORICE。该体系结构通过将服务置于应用程序层来实现智能解析服务,并通过将名称空间管理与解析服务分离来实现服务的多样性。通过初步评估,我们表明,在ORICE的帮助下,在确保完整数据传输的同时,可以显着减少存储在网络中的状态。

In this paper, we conduct a detailed study characterizing the performance of multi-tier web applications on commercial cloud platforms and evaluate the potential of techniques to improve the resilience of such applications to performance fluctuations in the cloud. In contrast to prior works that have studied the performance of individual cloud services or that of compute-intensive scientific applications (e.g., map-reduce based), our study focuses on multi-tier web applications. Our work is conducted in the context of four real-world web applications which we instrumented to collect the overall response time and the time spent in each application tier, for each transaction. Our results indicate that cloud applications undergo frequent periods of poor performance that typically (i) are short-lived lasting a few minutes; and (ii) may be attributed to a small subset of application components, though different subsets may be involved at different times. While geo-distributing applications can help mitigate performance variability, coarse-grained approaches that merely choose the best performing data-center (DC) provide only modest benefits. More significant benefits could accrue, however, if combination of cloud services located across multiple datacenters (DCs) are chosen to serve each request.
在本文中,我们详细研究了商业云平台上多层web应用程序的性能特征,并评估了提高此类应用程序对云中性能波动的弹性的技术潜力。与之前研究单个云服务或计算密集型科学应用程序(例如,基于map-reduce)性能的工作相反,我们的研究侧重于多层web应用程序。我们的工作是在四个真实的web应用程序的上下文中进行的,我们对这些应用程序进行了检测,以收集每个事务在每个应用程序层中花费的总体响应时间和时间。我们的结果表明,云应用程序经常经历性能不佳的时期,通常是(i)短暂的,持续几分钟;并且(ii)可能归因于应用程序组件的一小部分,尽管不同的子集可能在不同的时间涉及。虽然地理分布应用程序可以帮助减轻性能变化,但仅选择性能最佳的数据中心(DC)的粗粒度方法只能提供有限的好处。但是,如果选择跨多个数据中心(dc)的云服务组合来处理每个请求,则可以获得更大的好处。

Wireless mesh network (WMN) has been proposed to extend wireless coverage by using multi-hop communication to enable network service for mobile devices via densely deployed mesh APs. While modern wireless devices are capable of using multiple WiFi interfaces, the Multipath TCP (MPTCP) protocol has been employed to make full use of the capacity of multiple radios. A key question of MPTCP communication in WMN is to decide the best access point (AP) association for each wireless interface to achieve maximum network performance. In this paper, we propose an optimal AP association scheme based on goodput measurement. We setup a wireless mesh testbed with densely deployed APs to study the impact of signal strength and multi-hop communication. We fit the measured data by a three-dimensional surface, which shows that network goodput can be estimated by a function of Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and hops. With the proposed estimation function, we formulate the AP association problem as a mathematical optimization problem and solve it by Integer Programming.We implement the proposed strategy in the real deployed testbed and evaluate its performance using MPTCP, which shows that it improves MPTCP goodput significantly compared to several existing strategies.
无线网状网络(WMN)是一种利用多跳通信,通过密集部署的网状ap为移动设备提供网络服务的无线网络覆盖技术。虽然现代无线设备能够使用多个WiFi接口,但多路径TCP (MPTCP)协议已被用于充分利用多个无线电的容量。WMN中MPTCP通信的一个关键问题是确定每个无线接口的最佳接入点(AP)关联,以实现最大的网络性能。在本文中,我们提出了一种基于good - put度量的最优AP关联方案。我们建立了一个密集部署ap的无线网格测试平台,研究了信号强度和多跳通信的影响。我们用三维曲面拟合了实测数据,结果表明网络性能可以用接收信号强度指标(RSSI)和跳数的函数来估计。利用所提出的估计函数,将AP关联问题形式化为一个数学优化问题,并用整数规划方法求解。我们在实际部署的测试平台上实现了该策略,并使用MPTCP对其性能进行了评估,结果表明,与现有的几种策略相比,该策略显著提高了MPTCP的性能。

HTTP streaming currently dominates Internet traffic. It is increasingly common that video players employ adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming strategies to maximise the user experience by selecting the highest video representation while targeting stall-free playback. Our interest lies in the common situation where a set of video flows are competing for access to a shared bottleneck link, such as in a cellular radio access network. We observe that ISPs (e.g. cellular operators) are considering innetwork techniques for resource allocation and sharing among different users. Buoyed by the ability of software defined networks (SDN) to offer flow-specific control and traffic shaping, we focus on traffic shaping techniques, and experimentally analyse the effect on ABR video flows when sharing a bottleneck link. We conduct experiments using the GPAC video player operating over a Mininet virtual network. We conclude that traffic shaping can allow a balance of fairness, efficiency and quality. Traffic shaping ABR videos reduce the number of stalls and quality switches, while also reducing the peaks for the aggregate network traffic.
HTTP流目前主导着互联网流量。越来越多的视频播放器采用自适应比特率(ABR)流媒体策略,通过选择最高的视频表示来最大化用户体验,同时以无失速播放为目标。我们的兴趣在于一组视频流竞争访问共享瓶颈链路的常见情况,例如在蜂窝无线接入网中。我们观察到isp(例如蜂窝运营商)正在考虑在不同用户之间分配和共享资源的网络技术。由于软件定义网络(SDN)提供特定流控制和流量整形的能力,我们专注于流量整形技术,并实验分析了当共享瓶颈链路时对ABR视频流的影响。我们使用在Mininet虚拟网络上运行的GPAC视频播放器进行实验。我们得出的结论是,流量塑造可以实现公平、效率和质量的平衡。流量整形ABR视频减少了档数和质量切换,同时也降低了网络总流量的峰值。

Network function virtualization (NFV) promises significant cost savings, flexibility and ease of deployment. However, potential challenges in implementing virtualized network elements that can support real-world performance requirements are still an open question. For example, traditional telecom networks have a lot of complex interdependencies that can affect performance. In this paper, we study the potential bottlenecks in virtualizing cellular core network functions. Using a combination of analysis and experimentation, we quantify the impact of software-based EPC elements on various metrics including physical processing, memory, IO, and bandwidth resource requirements. We use production grade, software-based cellular network elements running on general purpose Linux servers, driven by a variety of realistic workloads derived from a realworld cellular network, to examine the combined effects of control and data planes on an LTE enhanced packet core (EPC). In particular, we discover that the SGW handles about 33% of the control plane transactions and is a potential source for performance bottlenecks as a result of the interdependencies between control and data plane processing. Our results indicate that simply replacing existing EPC elements with virtualized equivalents can have severe performance bottlenecks and that virtualized EPC elements need to be carefully designed.
网络功能虚拟化(NFV)承诺显著的成本节约、灵活性和易部署性。然而,在实现能够支持实际性能需求的虚拟化网络元素方面的潜在挑战仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。例如,传统的电信网络具有许多复杂的相互依赖关系,可能会影响性能。在本文中,我们研究了虚拟化蜂窝核心网功能的潜在瓶颈。通过结合分析和实验,我们量化了基于软件的EPC元素对各种指标的影响,包括物理处理、内存、IO和带宽资源需求。我们使用运行在通用Linux服务器上的生产级、基于软件的蜂窝网络元素,由来自真实蜂窝网络的各种实际工作负载驱动,以检查控制平面和数据平面对LTE增强型分组核心(EPC)的综合影响。特别是,我们发现SGW处理大约33%的控制平面事务,并且由于控制和数据平面处理之间的相互依赖关系,SGW是性能瓶颈的潜在来源。我们的结果表明,简单地用虚拟化的等同物替换现有的EPC元素可能会产生严重的性能瓶颈,并且需要仔细设计虚拟化的EPC元素。

More than 4 billion people are not connected to the Internet. This is either because there is no infrastructure or because Internet access is not affordable. This digital divide is extreme in Africa. At Microsoft, we have been investigating various technologies to bridge this divide. In this paper we describe our research around the TV White Spaces, and how we have leveraged it, and worked with our partners to connect communities in Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana, Botswana, Namibia and South Africa.

IP spoofing based attacks remains a serious and open security problem due to the fact that the current Internet implements no source address authentication mechanisms. A series of anti-spoofing practices have long been proposed while their actual implementation seems far from satisfactory. Route based filters were extensively studied in the design of Inter-AS source address validation methods. Traditional route based filters only use route direction information to establish filtering rules, causing inherited fake negatives. A novel inter-AS filter based on route path vector is proposed to reduce or even eliminate such fake negatives in this article. We name the filter IPVF (Inter-AS Path Vector Filter), which utilizes the route information of both path and distance, exhibits measurable increase in performance and incurs acceptable additional bandwidth cost. Moreover, traditional route based filtering rules is easy to be deduced by attackers. Since the filtering rules of IPVF could change over time by setting parameters, its actual improvement in performance could be exponentially increased.
由于当前Internet没有实现源地址认证机制,基于IP欺骗的攻击仍然是一个严重的安全问题。长期以来,人们提出了一系列反欺骗措施,但它们的实际实施似乎远非令人满意。基于路由的过滤器在as间源地址验证方法的设计中得到了广泛的研究。传统的基于路由的过滤器只使用路由方向信息来建立过滤规则,导致继承假阴性。本文提出了一种新的基于路由路径向量的as间滤波器来减少甚至消除这种假负。我们将该滤波器命名为IPVF (Inter-AS Path Vector filter),它利用了路径和距离的路由信息,在性能上有明显的提高,并产生了可接受的额外带宽成本。此外,传统的基于路由的过滤规则很容易被攻击者推断出来。由于IPVF的过滤规则可以通过设置参数而随时间变化,因此其实际性能的提高可以呈指数级增长。

In order to improve the spectrum efficiency and achieve greener communication in wireless applications, in this paper we propose a novel energy saving strategy in cognitive networks based on software defined radio. By establishing a preemptive priority queue model with single vacation, we capture the stochastic behavior of the proposed strategy. Using the method of matrix geometric solution, we derive both the average latency of secondary user packets and the energy saving rate. Finally, we provide numerical results to demonstrate the influence of the sleep timer length on the system performance, and to investigate the trade-off between different performance measures.
