AI-Driven Packet Forwarding With Programmable Data Plane: A Survey
The existing packet forwarding technology cannot meet the increasing requirements of Internet development due to its rigid framework. Application of artificial intelligence (AI) for efficient packet forwarding is gaining more and more interest as a new direction. Recently, the explosive development of programmable data plane (PDP) has provided a potential impetus to packet forwarding driven by AI. Therefore, this paper presents a survey on the recent research in AI-driven packet forwarding with PDP. First, we describe two of the most representative frameworks of the packet forwarding, i.e., the traditional AI-driven forwarding framework and the new one assisted by the PDP. Then, we focus on capacity of the packet forwarding under the two frameworks in four measures: delay, throughput, security, and reliability. For each measure, we organize the content with the evolution from simple packet forwarding, to packet forwarding capacity enhancement with the assistance of AI, to the latest research on AI-driven packet forwarding supported by the PDP. Finally, we identify three directions in the development of AI-driven packet forwarding, and highlight the challenges and issues in future research.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials is an online journal published by the IEEE Communications Society for tutorials and surveys covering all aspects of the communications field. Telecommunications technology is progressing at a rapid pace, and the IEEE Communications Society is committed to providing researchers and other professionals the information and tools to stay abreast. IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials focuses on integrating and adding understanding to the existing literature on communications, putting results in context. Whether searching for in-depth information about a familiar area or an introduction into a new area, IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials aims to be the premier source of peer-reviewed, comprehensive tutorials and surveys, and pointers to further sources. IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials publishes only articles exclusively written for IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials and go through a rigorous review process before their publication in the quarterly issues.
A tutorial article in the IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should be designed to help the reader to become familiar with and learn something specific about a chosen topic. In contrast, the term survey, as applied here, is defined to mean a survey of the literature. A survey article in IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should provide a comprehensive review of developments in a selected area, covering its development from its inception to its current state and beyond, and illustrating its development through liberal citations from the literature. Both tutorials and surveys should be tutorial in nature and should be written in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article.
