In networked systems engineering, operational data gathered from sensors or logs can be used to build data-driven functions for performance prediction, anomaly detection, and other operational tasks. The number of data sources used for this purpose determines the dimensionality of the feature space for learning and can reach millions for medium-sized systems. Learning on a space with high dimensionality generally incurs high communication and computational costs for the learning process. In this work, we apply and compare a range of methods, including, feature selection, Principle Component Analysis (PCA), and autoencoders with the objective to reduce the dimensionality of the feature space while maintaining the prediction accuracy when compared with learning on the full space. We conduct the study using traces gathered from a testbed at KTH that runs a video-on-demand service and a key-value store under dynamic load. Our results suggest the feasibility of reducing the dimensionality of the feature space of operational data significantly, by one to two orders of magnitude in our scenarios, while maintaining prediction accuracy. The findings confirm the Manifold Hypothesis in machine learning, which states that real-world data sets tend to occupy a small subspace of the full feature space. In addition, we investigate the tradeoff between prediction accuracy and prediction overhead, which is crucial for applying the results to operational systems.
在网络系统工程中,从传感器或日志收集的操作数据可用于构建数据驱动的功能,用于性能预测、异常检测和其他操作任务。用于此目的的数据源的数量决定了用于学习的特征空间的维度,对于中型系统可以达到数百万。在高维空间上学习通常会导致学习过程中高昂的通信和计算成本。在这项工作中,我们应用并比较了一系列方法,包括特征选择、主成分分析(PCA)和自编码器,目的是降低特征空间的维数,同时保持与全空间学习相比的预测精度。我们使用从KTH的测试平台收集的痕迹进行研究,该测试平台在动态负载下运行视频点播服务和键值存储。我们的研究结果表明,在我们的场景中,在保持预测精度的同时,可以显著降低操作数据特征空间的维数,降低一到两个数量级。研究结果证实了机器学习中的流形假设,即现实世界的数据集往往占据完整特征空间的一小部分子空间。此外,我们还研究了预测精度和预测开销之间的权衡,这对于将结果应用于操作系统至关重要。

Network services are among the riskiest programs executed by production systems. Such services execute large quantities of complex code and process data from arbitrary — and untrusted — network sources, often with high levels of system privilege. It is desirable to confine system services to a least-privileged environment so that the potential damage from a malicious attacker can be limited, but existing mechanisms for sandboxing services require invasive and system-specific code changes and are insufficient to confine broad classes of network services. Rather than sandboxing one service at a time, we propose that the best place to add sandboxing to network services is in the service manager that starts those services. As a first step towards this vision, we propose CapExec, a process supervisor that can execute a single service within a sandbox based on a service declaration file in which, required resources whose limited access to are supported by Caper services, are specified. Using the Capsicum compartmentalization framework and its Casper service framework, CapExec provides robust application sandboxing without requiring any modifications to the application itself. We believe that this is the first step towards ubiquitous sandboxing of network services without the costs of virtualization.
网络服务是生产系统执行的风险最大的程序之一。这些服务执行大量复杂的代码并处理来自任意(和不受信任的)网络源的数据,通常具有高级系统特权。将系统服务限制在最低特权环境中是理想的,这样可以限制来自恶意攻击者的潜在损害,但是沙箱服务的现有机制需要侵入性的和特定于系统的代码更改,并且不足以限制广泛的网络服务类别。我们建议将沙箱添加到网络服务的最佳位置是在启动这些服务的服务管理器中,而不是一次对一个服务进行沙箱。作为实现这一愿景的第一步,我们提出了CapExec,它是一个流程管理器,可以在基于服务声明文件的沙箱中执行单个服务,其中指定了Caper服务支持的有限访问的所需资源。使用Capsicum分隔框架及其Casper服务框架,CapExec提供了健壮的应用程序沙箱,而不需要对应用程序本身进行任何修改。我们相信,这是向无所不在的网络服务沙盒迈出的第一步,而且不需要虚拟化成本。

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) introduces a centralized network control and management by separating the data plane from the control plane which facilitates traffic flow monitoring, security analysis and policy formulation. However, it is challenging to choose a proper degree of traffic flow handling granularity while proactively protecting forwarding devices from getting overloaded. In this paper, we propose a novel traffic flow matching control framework called Q-DATA that applies reinforcement learning in order to enhance the traffic flow monitoring performance in SDN based networks and prevent traffic forwarding performance degradation. We first describe and analyse an SDN-based traffic flow matching control system that applies a reinforcement learning approach based on Q-learning algorithm in order to maximize the traffic flow granularity. It also considers the forwarding performance status of the SDN switches derived from a Support Vector Machine based algorithm. Next, we outline the Q-DATA framework that incorporates the optimal traffic flow matching policy derived from the traffic flow matching control system to efficiently provide the most detailed traffic flow information that other mechanisms require. Our novel approach is realized as a REST SDN application and evaluated in an SDN environment. Through comprehensive experiments, the results show that—compared to the default behavior of common SDN controllers and to our previous DATA mechanism—the new Q-DATA framework yields a remarkable improvement in terms of traffic forwarding performance degradation protection of SDN switches while still providing the most detailed traffic flow information on demand.
软件定义网络SDN (software defined Networking)通过数据平面和控制平面的分离,实现了网络的集中控制和管理,便于流量监控、安全分析和策略制定。然而,如何在主动保护转发设备不过载的同时,选择合适的流量处理粒度是一个挑战。在本文中,我们提出了一种名为Q-DATA的新型流量匹配控制框架,该框架应用强化学习来提高基于SDN网络的流量监控性能并防止流量转发性能下降。我们首先描述和分析了一个基于sdn的交通流匹配控制系统,该系统采用基于q -学习算法的强化学习方法来最大化交通流粒度。它还考虑了基于支持向量机的SDN交换机的转发性能状态。接下来,我们概述了Q-DATA框架,该框架结合了来自交通流匹配控制系统的最优交通流匹配策略,以有效地提供其他机制所需的最详细的交通流信息。我们的新方法作为REST SDN应用程序实现,并在SDN环境中进行了评估。通过综合实验,结果表明,与常见SDN控制器的默认行为和我们之前的DATA机制相比,新的Q-DATA框架在SDN交换机的流量转发性能降级保护方面有了显着改善,同时仍然提供了最详细的流量流信息。

Efficient network slicing is vital to deal with the highly variable and dynamic characteristics of traffic in 5G networks. Network slicing addresses a challenging dynamic network resource allocation problem where a single network infrastructure is divided into (virtual) multiple slices to meet the demands of different users with varying requirements, the main challenges being — the traffic arrival characteristics and the job resource requirements (e.g., compute, memory and bandwidth resources) for each slice can be highly dynamic. Traditional model-based optimization or queueing theoretic modeling becomes intractable with the high reliability, and stringent bandwidth and latency requirements imposed by 5G. We propose a deep reinforcement learning approach to address this dynamic coupled resource allocation problem. Model evaluation using synthetic and real workload data demonstrates that our deep reinforcement learning solution improves overall resource utilization, latency performance, and demands satisfied as compared to a baseline equal slicing strategy.
高效的网络切片对于处理5G网络中高度可变和动态的流量特性至关重要。网络切片解决了一个具有挑战性的动态网络资源分配问题,其中将单个网络基础设施划分为(虚拟)多个片,以满足具有不同需求的不同用户的需求,主要挑战是-流量到达特征和每个片的作业资源需求(例如,计算,内存和带宽资源)可能是高度动态的。传统的基于模型的优化或排队理论建模在5G的高可靠性、严格的带宽和延迟要求下变得难以处理。我们提出了一种深度强化学习方法来解决这种动态耦合资源分配问题。使用合成和真实工作负载数据的模型评估表明,与基线等切片策略相比,我们的深度强化学习解决方案提高了整体资源利用率、延迟性能和满足的需求。

In 5G networks, slicing allows partitioning of network resources to meet stringent end-to-end service requirements across multiple network segments, from access to transport. These requirements are shaping technical evolution in each of these segments. In particular, the transport segment is currently evolving in the direction of the so-called elastic optical networks (EONs), a new generation of optical networks supporting a flexible optical-spectrum grid and novel elastic transponder capabilities. In this paper, we focus on the reliability of 5G transport-network slices in EON. Specifically, we consider the problem of slicing 5G transport networks, i.e., establishing virtual networks on 5G transport, while providing dedicated protection. As dedicated protection requires a large amount of backup resources, our proposed solution incorporates two techniques to reduce backup resources: (i) bandwidth squeezing, i.e., providing a reduced protection bandwidth with respect to the original request; and (ii) survivable multi-path provisioning. We leverage the capability of EONs to fine tune spectrum allocation and adapt modulation format and Forward Error Correction (FEC) for allocating rightsize spectrum resources to network slices. Our numerical evaluation over realistic case-study network topologies quantifies the spectrum savings achieved by employing EON over traditional fixed-grid optical networks, and provides new insights on the impact of bandwidth squeezing and multi-path provisioning on spectrum utilization.
在5G网络中,切片允许对网络资源进行分区,以满足从访问到传输的多个网段的严格端到端服务需求。这些需求正在塑造这些领域的技术发展。特别是,传输部分目前正朝着所谓的弹性光网络(EONs)的方向发展,这是支持灵活光谱网格和新型弹性转发器功能的新一代光网络。本文主要研究EON中5G传输网络切片的可靠性。具体来说,我们考虑了切片5G传输网络的问题,即在5G传输上建立虚拟网络,同时提供专用保护。由于专用保护需要大量的备份资源,我们提出的解决方案采用了两种技术来减少备份资源:(i)带宽压缩,即提供相对于原始请求的减少的保护带宽;(ii)可生存的多路径供应。我们利用eon的能力来微调频谱分配,适应调制格式和前向纠错(FEC),为网络切片分配适当大小的频谱资源。我们对实际案例研究网络拓扑的数值评估量化了采用EON在传统固定网格光网络上实现的频谱节省,并提供了关于带宽压缩和多路径配置对频谱利用率影响的新见解。

More and more management and orchestration approaches for (software) networks are based on machine learning paradigms and solutions. These approaches depend not only on their program code to operate properly, but also require enough input data to train their internal models. However, such training data is barely available for the software networking domain and most presented solutions rely on their own, sometimes not even published, data sets. This makes it hard, or even infeasible, to reproduce and compare many of the existing solutions. As a result, it ultimately slows down the adoption of machine learning approaches in softwarised networks.To this end, we introduce the “softwarised network data zoo” (SNDZoo), an open collection of software networking data sets aiming to streamline and ease machine learning research in the software networking domain. We present a general methodology to collect, archive, and publish those data sets for use by other researchers and, as an example, eight initial data sets, focusing on the performance of virtualised network functions.
越来越多的(软件)网络管理和编排方法基于机器学习范例和解决方案。这些方法不仅依赖于它们的程序代码来正常运行,而且还需要足够的输入数据来训练它们的内部模型。然而,这样的训练数据几乎无法用于软件网络领域,并且大多数提出的解决方案依赖于他们自己的,有时甚至没有发布的数据集。这使得复制和比较许多现有解决方案变得困难,甚至不可行。因此,它最终会减缓机器学习方法在软件化网络中的采用。为此,我们引入了“软件化网络数据动物园”(SNDZoo),这是一个开放的软件网络数据集集合,旨在简化和简化软件网络领域的机器学习研究。我们提出了一种通用的方法来收集、存档和发布这些数据集,以供其他研究人员使用,例如,八个初始数据集,重点关注虚拟化网络功能的性能。

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is an optical amplifier/repeater device used to boost the intensity of optical signals being carried through fiber optic communication networks. A highly accurate EDFA model – to predict the signal gain for each channel – is required because of its crucial role in optical network management and optimization. EDFA channel inputs (i.e. features) either carry signal or are idle, therefore they can be treated as binary features. However, channel outputs (and the corresponding signal gains) are continuous values. Labeled training data is very expensive to collect for EDFA devices, therefore we devise an active learning strategy suitable for binary features to overcome this issue. We propose to take advantage of sparse linear models to simplify the predictive model. This approach improves signal gain prediction and accelerates active learning query generation. We show the performance of our proposed active learning strategies on simulated data and real EDFA data.
掺铒光纤放大器(EDFA)是一种用于增强通过光纤通信网络传输的光信号强度的光放大器/中继器装置。由于EDFA模型在光网络管理和优化中起着至关重要的作用,因此需要高精度的EDFA模型来预测每个通道的信号增益。EDFA通道输入(即特征)要么携带信号,要么是空闲的,因此它们可以被视为二进制特征。然而,通道输出(和相应的信号增益)是连续值。标记训练数据的收集对于EDFA设备来说是非常昂贵的,因此我们设计了一种适合二进制特征的主动学习策略来克服这个问题。我们提出利用稀疏线性模型来简化预测模型。该方法改进了信号增益预测,加速了主动学习查询的生成。我们在模拟数据和真实EDFA数据上展示了我们提出的主动学习策略的性能。

Wireless Service Providers Pricing Game in Presence of Possible Sponsored Data 无线服务提供商在可能的赞助数据存在下的定价博弈

Sponsored data, where content providers have the possibility to pay wireless providers for the data consumed by customers and therefore to exclude it from the data cap, is getting widespread in many countries, but is forbidden in others for concerns of infringing the network neutrality principles. We present in this paper a game-theoretic model analyzing the consequences of sponsored data in presence of competing wireless providers, where sponsoring decided by the content provider can be different at each provider. We also discuss the impact on the proportion of advertising on the displayed content. We show that, surprisingly, the possibility of sponsored data may actually reduce the benefits of content providers and on the other hand increase the revenue of ISPs in competition, with a very limited impact on user welfare.
赞助数据,即内容提供商有可能向无线提供商支付客户使用的数据,从而将其排除在数据上限之外,在许多国家越来越普遍,但在其他国家因担心违反网络中立原则而被禁止。我们在本文中提出了一个博弈论模型,分析了在竞争无线提供商存在的情况下赞助数据的后果,其中由内容提供商决定的赞助在每个提供商中可能是不同的。我们还讨论了广告对显示内容比例的影响。我们表明,令人惊讶的是,赞助数据的可能性实际上可能会减少内容提供商的利益,另一方面增加互联网服务提供商在竞争中的收入,对用户福利的影响非常有限。

We present in this paper a game-theoretic model analyzing the consequences of sponsored data in presence of competing wireless providers, where sponsoring decided by the content provider can be different at each provider. We also discuss the impact on the proportion of advertising on the displayed content. We show that, surprisingly, the possibility of sponsored data may actually reduce the benefits of content providers and on the other hand increase the revenue of ISPs in competition, with a very limited impact on user welfare.","PeriodicalId":273818,"journal":{"name":"2019 15th International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125164843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
