Achieving the Optimal Steaming Capacity and Delay Using Random Regular Digraphs in P2P Networks

In earlier work, we showed that it is possible to achieve $O(\log N)$ streaming delay with high probability in a peer-to-peer network, where each peer has as little as four neighbors, while achieving any arbitrary fraction of the maximum possible streaming rate. However, the constant in the $O(log N)$ delay term becomes rather large as we get closer to the maximum streaming rate. In this paper, we design an alternative pairing and chunk dissemination algorithm that allows us to transmit at the maximum streaming rate while ensuring that all, but a negligible fraction of the peers, receive the data stream with $O(\log N)$ delay with high probability. The result is established by examining the properties of graph formed by the union of two or more random 1-regular digraphs, i.e., directed graphs in which each node has an incoming and an outgoing node degree both equal to one

Space Shuffle: A Scalable, Flexible, and High-Bandwidth Data Center Network

Data center applications require the network to be scalable and bandwidth-rich. Current data center network architectures often use rigid topologies to increase network bandwidth. A major limitation is that they can hardly support incremental network growth. Recent work proposes to use random interconnects to provide growth flexibility. However routing on a random topology suffers from control and data plane scalability problems, because routing decisions require global information and forwarding state cannot be aggregated. In this paper we design a novel flexible data center network architecture, Space Shuffle (S2), which applies greedy routing on multiple ring spaces to achieve high-throughput, scalability, and flexibility. The proposed greedy routing protocol of S2 effectively exploits the path diversity of densely connected topologies and enables key-based routing. Extensive experimental studies show that S2 provides high bisectional bandwidth and throughput, near-optimal routing path lengths, extremely small forwarding state, fairness among concurrent data flows, and resiliency to network failures
