    Providing Internet access to billions of people worldwide is one of the main technical challenges in the current decade. The Internet access edge connects each residential and mobile subscriber to this network and ensures a certain Quality of Service (QoS). However, the implementation of access edge functionality challenges Internet service providers: First, a good QoS must be provided to the subscribers, for example, high throughput and low latency. Second, the quick rollout of new technologies and functionality demands flexible configuration and programming possibilities of the network components; for example, the support of novel, use-case-specific network protocols. The functionality scope of an Internet access edge requires the use of programming concepts, such as Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). The drawback of NFV-based network functions is a significantly lowered resource efficiency due to the execution as software, commonly resulting in a lowered QoS compared to rigid hardware solutions. The usage of programmable hardware accelerators, named NFV offloading, helps to improve the QoS and flexibility of network function implementations. In this thesis, we design network functions on programmable hardware to improve the QoS and flexibility. First, we introduce the host bypassing concept for improved integration of hardware accelerators in computer systems, for example, in 5G radio access networks. This novel concept bypasses the system’s main memory and enables direct connectivity between the accelerator and network interface card. Our evaluations show an improved throughput and significantly lowered latency jitter for the presented approach. Second, we analyze different programmable hardware technologies for hardware-accelerated Internet subscriber handling, including three P4-programmable platforms and FPGAs. Our results demonstrate that all approaches have excellent performance and are suitable for Internet access creation. We present a fully-fledged User Plane Function (UPF) designed upon these concepts and test it in an end-to-end 5G standalone network as part of this contribution. Third, we analyze and demonstrate the usability of Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithms on programmable hardware as an expansion to the access edge. We show the feasibility of the CoDel AQM algorithm and discuss the challenges and constraints to be considered when limited hardware is used. The results show significant improvements in the QoS when the AQM algorithm is deployed on hardware. Last, we focus on network function benchmarking, which is crucial for understanding the behavior of implementations and their optimization, e.g., Internet access creation. For this, we introduce the load generation and measurement framework P4STA, benefiting from flexible software-based load generation and hardware-assisted measuring. Utilizing programmable network switches, we achieve a nanosecond time accuracy while generating test loads up to the available Ethernet link speed

    Get PDF
    ANTECEDENTES El aprovisionamiento de la Calidad de la Experiencia (QoE) en servicios de telecomunicaciones requiere de sistemas de gestión que permitan monitorizar y controlar la QoE de los usuarios luego de consumir diferentes servicios de internet provistos sobre la red del operador. En efecto, el consumo elevado de datos por parte de los usuarios requiere, a nivel de gestión de la red, la asignación de recursos suficientes para el correcto funcionamiento de los servicios. En particular, la configuración de la Calidad del Servicio (QoS) ofrecida por el operador dentro de su dominio de operación se torna fundamental para proveer un tratamiento apropiado del tráfico, permitiendo que la percepción de la calidad del servicio por parte de los usuarios finales pueda mantenerse dentro del umbral de tolerancia de acuerdo con las políticas establecidas por la compañía de telecomunicaciones (Telco). En consecuencia, un modelo de correlación QoS-QoE es clave en el aprovisionamiento de servicios de internet sobre la infraestructura del operador de telecomunicaciones. OBJETIVOS La presente tesis de doctorado se centra en proponer un modelo de correlación QoS-QoE en un ambiente de aprovisionamiento de servicios de telecomunicaciones OTT-Telco. Para ello, cinco acciones generales deben llevarse a cabo; a saber: () caracterizar los parámetros de QoS que mayor efecto tienen en la degradación de servicios OTT. () determinar las características, condiciones, parámetros y medidas de QoE en la prestación de un servicio OTT. () establecer las condiciones y restricciones de prestación de un servicio OTT en la infraestructura de una Telco que mantenga una buena relación QoS-QoE. () desarrollar un mecanismo de estimación o predicción de QoE con base en los factores de influencia de QoS que afectan la prestación de un servicio OTT. () evaluar experimentalmente el modelo de correlación QoE-QoS. MÉTODOS Para el cumplimiento de los objetivos, se definió un modelo integrado por un macro-componente Conceptualización y otro Operacional. El macro-componente Conceptualización está orientado por el referente metodológico para la construcción de marcos conceptuales de Jabareen, y el macro-componente Operacional está alineado con las fases definidas para el desarrollo de proyectos de minería de datos, CRISP-DM. Adicionalmente, se emplearon diseños de comprobación para los algoritmos, con el fin de comprobar la validez del modelo de estimación basado en algoritmos de aprendizaje automático; es decir, el modelo de estimación fue evaluado a partir de un diseño de comprobación donde se definen, para cada uno de los algoritmos, los parámetros iniciales de operación, las configuraciones de las diferentes pruebas, y las métricas usadas para evaluar su desempeño. RESULTADOS Los resultados más importantes alcanzados son los siguientes: un mapa estratégico del estado de la ciencia en el aprovisionamiento de la QoE para servicios OTT, una conceptualización de los perfiles del modelo de correlación, un modelo matemático para la valoración de la QoE de acuerdo con el comportamiento de consumo de los usuarios, un conjunto de datos de tráfico etiquetado que relaciona el comportamiento de la red con la percepción de la calidad de los usuarios, y un modelo de estimación de la QoE de los usuarios a partir del comportamiento de tráfico de la red. CONCLUSIONES El modelo de correlación QoS-QoE puede ser empleado en sistemas gestión de la QoE donde se requiere por parte de la Telco un diagnóstico y monitorización más objetiva de la percepción de la calidad del servicio por parte de sus usuarios dentro su red de aprovisionamiento. De igual manera, el empleo de parámetros adicionales de contexto de usuario enriquecería los sistemas de gestión de la QoE en el aprovisionamiento de servicios OTT.BACKGROUND Quality of Experience (QoE) provisioning requires robust QoE-centric network and application management on Telco network for providing internet services. Indeed, traffic growth over Telco network demands resource allocation for service well performance. Particularly, Quality of Service (QoS) configuration offered by network provider operational domain becomes a key component for traffic control in a proper manner. Hence, the quality of services perceived can be managed within a tolerance threshold according to telecom operator policies. Therefore, a QoS-QoE correlational model for internet services provisioning over the telecom operator infrastructure is required. AIMS The doctoral thesis is focused on propose a correlation QoS-QoE model for provisioning telecommunications services in OTT-Telco context. To this end, five goals must be accomplishing. () To characterize QoS parameters that more impact have on OTT services performance. () To determinate QoE assumptions, features, parameters, and metrics for OTT service provisioning. () To establish the assumptions and restrictions for providing a well QoS-QoE relation in the telecom operator. () To develop an estimation model for QoE based on QoS factors in the OTT services provisioning. () To evaluate the correlation QoS-QoE model. METHODS To accomplish the aims, a model with a Conceptual and Operational macro-component was structured. The Conceptual macro-component is based on the principles for building conceptual frameworks by Jabareen, and an Operational macro-component aligned with data mining project development phases, CRISP-DM. Furthermore, test bed design was structured to validate the estimation model base on machine learning algorithms; namely, algorithms initial parameters, some tests setup, and regression metrics were determined on a test bed for validate the performance of the estimation model proposed RESULTS The most relevant results achieved are the following: a strategic science map in the QoE provisioning for OTT services, three conceptual profiles as part of the correlation QoS-QoE model, a mathematical model for QoE assessment according to user consumption behavior, a label traffic dataset that relates the traffic network with quality of services perception, and estimation QoE model for users based on traffic flows. CONCLUSIONS The QoS-QoE correlational model can be applied in QoE-Driven application and network management in which an objective controlling and monitoring of quality of services perception by users is required. Moreover, additional user context parameters could be taking account for improving the QoE management systems in OTT services provisioning.Programa de Doctorado en Ciencia y Tecnología Informática por la Universidad Carlos III de MadridPresidente: Jesús García Herrero.- Secretario: José Armando Ordóñez Córdoba.- Vocal: Juan Carlos Cuéllar Quiñóne

    Plataforma colaborativa, distribuida, escalable y de bajo costo basada en microservicios, contenedores, dispositivos móviles y servicios en la Nube para tareas de cómputo intensivo

    Get PDF
    A la hora de resolver tareas de cómputo intensivo de manera distribuida y paralela, habitualmente se utilizan recursos de hardware x86 (CPU/GPU) e infraestructura especializada (Grid, Cluster, Nube) para lograr un alto rendimiento. En sus inicios los procesadores, coprocesadores y chips x86 fueron desarrollados para resolver problemas complejos sin tener en cuenta su consumo energético. Dado su impacto directo en los costos y el medio ambiente, optimizar el uso, refrigeración y gasto energético, así como analizar arquitecturas alternativas, se convirtió en una preocupación principal de las organizaciones. Como resultado, las empresas e instituciones han propuesto diferentes arquitecturas para implementar las características de escalabilidad, flexibilidad y concurrencia. Con el objetivo de plantear una arquitectura alternativa a los esquemas tradicionales, en esta tesis se propone ejecutar las tareas de procesamiento reutilizando las capacidades ociosas de los dispositivos móviles. Estos equipos integran procesadores ARM los cuales, en contraposición a las arquitecturas tradicionales x86, fueron desarrollados con la eficiencia energética como pilar fundacional, ya que son mayormente alimentados por baterías. Estos dispositivos, en los últimos años, han incrementado su capacidad, eficiencia, estabilidad, potencia, así como también masividad y mercado; mientras conservan un precio, tamaño y consumo energético reducido. A su vez, cuentan con lapsos de ociosidad durante los períodos de carga, lo que representa un gran potencial que puede ser reutilizado. Para gestionar y explotar adecuadamente estos recursos, y convertirlos en un centro de datos de procesamiento intensivo; se diseñó, desarrolló y evaluó una plataforma distribuida, colaborativa, elástica y de bajo costo basada en una arquitectura compuesta por microservicios y contenedores orquestados con Kubernetes en ambientes de Nube y local, integrada con herramientas, metodologías y prácticas DevOps. El paradigma de microservicios permitió que las funciones desarrolladas sean fragmentadas en pequeños servicios, con responsabilidades acotadas. Las prácticas DevOps permitieron construir procesos automatizados para la ejecución de pruebas, trazabilidad, monitoreo e integración de modificaciones y desarrollo de nuevas versiones de los servicios. Finalmente, empaquetar las funciones con todas sus dependencias y librerías en contenedores ayudó a mantener servicios pequeños, inmutables, portables, seguros y estandarizados que permiten su ejecución independiente de la arquitectura subyacente. Incluir Kubernetes como Orquestador de contenedores, permitió que los servicios se puedan administrar, desplegar y escalar de manera integral y transparente, tanto a nivel local como en la Nube, garantizando un uso eficiente de la infraestructura, gastos y energía. Para validar el rendimiento, escalabilidad, consumo energético y flexibilidad del sistema, se ejecutaron diversos escenarios concurrentes de transcoding de video. De esta manera se pudo probar, por un lado, el comportamiento y rendimiento de diversos dispositivos móviles y x86 bajo diferentes condiciones de estrés. Por otro lado, se pudo mostrar cómo a través de una carga variable de tareas, la arquitectura se ajusta, flexibiliza y escala para dar respuesta a las necesidades de procesamiento. Los resultados experimentales, sobre la base de los diversos escenarios de rendimiento, carga y saturación planteados, muestran que se obtienen mejoras útiles sobre la línea de base de este estudio y que la arquitectura desarrollada es lo suficientemente robusta para considerarse una alternativa escalable, económica y elástica, respecto a los modelos tradicionales.Facultad de Informátic

    Architecture and Protocol to Optimize Videoconference in Wireless Networks

    [EN] In the past years, videoconferencing (VC) has become an essential means of communications. VC allows people to communicate face to face regardless of their location, and it can be used for different purposes such as business meetings, medical assistance, commercial meetings, and military operations. There are a lot of factors in real-time video transmission that can affect to the quality of service (QoS) and the quality of experience (QoE). The application that is used (Adobe Connect, Cisco Webex, and Skype), the internet connection, or the network used for the communication can affect to the QoE. Users want communication to be as good as possible in terms of QoE. In this paper, we propose an architecture for videoconferencing that provides better quality of experience than other existing applications such as Adobe Connect, Cisco Webex, and Skype. We will test how these three applications work in terms of bandwidth, packets per second, and delay using WiFi and 3G/4G connections. Finally, these applications are compared to our prototype in the same scenarios as they were tested, and also in an SDN, in order to improve the advantages of the prototype.This work has been supported by the "Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad" in the "Programa Estatal de Fomento de la Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnica de Excelencia, Subprograma Estatal de Generacion de Conocimiento" within the project under Grant TIN2017-84802-C2-1-P.Jimenez, JM.; García-Navas, JL.; Lloret, J.; Romero Martínez, JO.

    QoE-Centric Control and Management of Multimedia Services in Software Defined and Virtualized Networks

    Multimedia services consumption has increased tremendously since the deployment of 4G/LTE networks. Mobile video services (e.g., YouTube and Mobile TV) on smart devices are expected to continue to grow with the emergence and evolution of future networks such as 5G. The end user’s demand for services with better quality from service providers has triggered a trend towards Quality of Experience (QoE) - centric network management through efficient utilization of network resources. However, existing network technologies are either unable to adapt to diverse changing network conditions or limited in available resources. This has posed challenges to service providers for provisioning of QoE-centric multimedia services. New networking solutions such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) can provide better solutions in terms of QoE control and management of multimedia services in emerging and future networks. The features of SDN, such as adaptability, programmability and cost-effectiveness make it suitable for bandwidth-intensive multimedia applications such as live video streaming, 3D/HD video and video gaming. However, the delivery of multimedia services over SDN/NFV networks to achieve optimized QoE, and the overall QoE-centric network resource management remain an open question especially in the advent development of future softwarized networks. The work in this thesis intends to investigate, design and develop novel approaches for QoE-centric control and management of multimedia services (with a focus on video streaming services) over software defined and virtualized networks. First, a video quality management scheme based on the traffic intensity under Dynamic Adaptive Video Streaming over HTTP (DASH) using SDN is developed. The proposed scheme can mitigate virtual port queue congestion which may cause buffering or stalling events during video streaming, thus, reducing the video quality. A QoE-driven resource allocation mechanism is designed and developed for improving the end user’s QoE for video streaming services. The aim of this approach is to find the best combination of network node functions that can provide an optimized QoE level to end-users through network node cooperation. Furthermore, a novel QoE-centric management scheme is proposed and developed, which utilizes Multipath TCP (MPTCP) and Segment Routing (SR) to enhance QoE for video streaming services over SDN/NFV-based networks. The goal of this strategy is to enable service providers to route network traffic through multiple disjointed bandwidth-satisfying paths and meet specific service QoE guarantees to the end-users. Extensive experiments demonstrated that the proposed schemes in this work improve the video quality significantly compared with the state-of-the- art approaches. The thesis further proposes the path protections and link failure-free MPTCP/SR-based architecture that increases survivability, resilience, availability and robustness of future networks. The proposed path protection and dynamic link recovery scheme achieves a minimum time to recover from a failed link and avoids link congestion in softwarized networks

    Optimizing IETF multimedia signaling protocols and architectures in 3GPP networks : an evolutionary approach

    Get PDF
    Signaling in Next Generation IP-based networks heavily relies in the family of multimedia signaling protocols defined by IETF. Two of these signaling protocols are RTSP and SIP, which are text-based, client-server, request-response signaling protocols aimed at enabling multimedia sessions over IP networks. RTSP was conceived to set up streaming sessions from a Content / Streaming Server to a Streaming Client, while SIP was conceived to set up media (e.g.: voice, video, chat, file sharing, …) sessions among users. However, their scope has evolved and expanded over time to cover virtually any type of content and media session. As mobile networks progressively evolved towards an IP-only (All-IP) concept, particularly in 4G and 5G networks, 3GPP had to select IP-based signaling protocols for core mobile services, as opposed to traditional SS7-based protocols used in the circuit-switched domain in use in 2G and 3G networks. In that context, rather than reinventing the wheel, 3GPP decided to leverage Internet protocols and the work carried on by the IETF. Hence, it was not surprise that when 3GPP defined the so-called Packet-switched Streaming Service (PSS) for real-time continuous media delivery, it selected RTSP as its signaling protocol and, more importantly, SIP was eventually selected as the core signaling protocol for all multimedia core services in the mobile (All-)IP domain. This 3GPP decision to use off-the-shelf IETF-standardized signaling protocols has been a key cornerstone for the future of All-IP fixed / mobile networks convergence and Next Generation Networks (NGN) in general. In this context, the main goal of our work has been analyzing how such general purpose IP multimedia signaling protocols are deployed and behave over 3GPP mobile networks. Effectively, usage of IP protocols is key to enable cross-vendor interoperability. On the other hand, due to the specific nature of the mobile domain, there are scenarios where it might be possible to leverage some additional “context” to enhance the performance of such protocols in the particular case of mobile networks. With this idea in mind, the bulk of this thesis work has consisted on analyzing and optimizing the performance of SIP and RTSP multimedia signaling protocols and defining optimized deployment architectures, with particular focus on the 3GPP PSS and the 3GPP Mission Critical Push-to-Talk (MCPTT) service. This work was preceded by a detailed analysis work of the performance of underlying IP, UDP and TCP protocol performance over 3GPP networks, which provided the best baseline for the future work around IP multimedia signaling protocols. Our contributions include the proposal of new optimizations to enhance multimedia streaming session setup procedures, detailed analysis and optimizations of a SIP-based Presence service and, finally, the definition of new use cases and optimized deployment architectures for the 3GPP MCPTT service. All this work has been published in the form of one book, three papers published in JCR cited International Journals, 5 articles published in International Conferences, one paper published in a National Conference and one awarded patent. This thesis work provides a detailed description of all contributions plus a comprehensive overview of their context, the guiding principles beneath all contributions, their applicability to different network deployment technologies (from 2.5G to 5G), a detailed overview of the related OMA and 3GPP architectures, services and design principles. Last but not least, the potential evolution of this research work into the 5G domain is also outlined as well.Els mecanismes de Senyalització en xarxes de nova generació es fonamenten en protocols de senyalització definits per IETF. En particular, SIP i RTSP són dos protocols extensibles basats en missatges de text i paradigma petició-resposta. RTSP va ser concebut per a establir sessions de streaming de continguts, mentre SIP va ser creat inicialment per a facilitar l’establiment de sessions multimèdia (veu, vídeo, xat, compartició) entre usuaris. Tot i així, el seu àmbit d’aplicació s’ha anat expandint i evolucionant fins a cobrir virtualment qualsevol tipus de contingut i sessió multimèdia. A mesura que les xarxes mòbils han anat evolucionant cap a un paradigma “All-IP”, particularment en xarxes 4G i 5G, 3GPP va seleccionar els protocols i arquitectures destinats a gestionar la senyalització dels serveis mòbils presents i futurs. En un moment determinat 3GPP decideix que, a diferència dels sistemes 2G i 3G que fan servir protocols basats en SS7, els sistemes de nova generació farien servir protocols estandarditzats per IETF. Quan 3GPP va començar a estandarditzar el servei de Streaming sobre xarxes mòbils PSS (Packet-switched Streaming Service) va escollir el protocol RTSP com a mecanisme de senyalització. Encara més significatiu, el protocol SIP va ser escollit com a mecanisme de senyalització per a IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), l’arquitectura de nova generació que substituirà la xarxa telefònica tradicional i permetrà el desplegament de nous serveis multimèdia. La decisió per part de 3GPP de seleccionar protocols estàndards definits per IETF ha representat una fita cabdal per a la convergència del sistemes All-IP fixes i mòbils, i per al desenvolupament de xarxes NGN (Next Generation Networks) en general. En aquest context, el nostre objectiu inicial ha estat analitzar com aquests protocols de senyalització multimèdia, dissenyats per a xarxes IP genèriques, es comporten sobre xarxes mòbils 3GPP. Efectivament, l’ús de protocols IP és fonamental de cara a facilitar la interoperabilitat de solucions diferents. Per altra banda, hi ha escenaris a on és possible aprofitar informació de “context” addicional per a millorar el comportament d’aquests protocols en al cas particular de xarxes mòbils. El cos principal del treball de la tesi ha consistit en l’anàlisi i optimització del rendiment dels protocols de senyalització multimèdia SIP i RTSP, i la definició d’arquitectures de desplegament, amb èmfasi en els serveis 3GPP PSS i 3GPP Mission Critical Push-to-Talk (MCPTT). Aquest treball ha estat precedit per una feina d’anàlisi detallada del comportament dels protocols IP, TCP i UDP sobre xarxes 3GPP, que va proporcionar els fonaments adequats per a la posterior tasca d’anàlisi de protocols de senyalització sobre xarxes mòbils. Les contribucions inclouen la proposta de noves optimitzacions per a millorar els procediments d’establiment de sessions de streaming multimèdia, l’anàlisi detallat i optimització del servei de Presència basat en SIP i la definició de nous casos d’ús i exemples de desplegament d’arquitectures optimitzades per al servei 3GPP MCPTT. Aquestes contribucions ha quedat reflectides en un llibre, tres articles publicats en Revistes Internacionals amb índex JCR, 5 articles publicats en Conferències Internacionals, un article publicat en Congrés Nacional i l’adjudicació d’una patent. La tesi proporciona una descripció detallada de totes les contribucions, així com un exhaustiu repàs del seu context, dels principis fonamentals subjacents a totes les contribucions, la seva aplicabilitat a diferents tipus de desplegaments de xarxa (des de 2.5G a 5G), així una presentació detallada de les arquitectures associades definides per organismes com OMA o 3GPP. Finalment també es presenta l’evolució potencial de la tasca de recerca cap a sistemes 5G

    A cognitive network management system to improve QoE in stereoscopic IPTV service

    Full text link
    [EN] New Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) services are including new technologies such as Stereoscopic TV and three-dimensions (3D) HDTV. As well, increased ubiquitous networking and promoting in smart devices have led to high demand IPTV (over networks). Stereoscopic content required higher data flow to support these emerging TV services, and there are higher requirements at the network layer to provide good quality of service and quality of experience to the end users in delivering stereoscopic IPTV. In this paper, we propose a new concept of cognitive network management algorithm and protocol based on 3D coding techniques for delivering of stereoscopic IPTV service. The proposed approach explains how the management algorithm observes the network performance to guarantee the quality of the stereoscopic IPTV services, by measuring the performance of quality of service (QoS) parameters (delay, jitter, and packets loss) and quality of experience (QoE) metrics such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Moving Image Videography (MIV), and Mean Opinion Score (MOS). Those parameters are monitored in order to take appropriate codification decision for IPTV service provider. Moreover, the codification decision uses K-mean classification to select the better codification for the end users. Therefore, both kinds of 3D coding formats such as Stereo Video Coding (SVC) format and 2D + Z Coding format (2D-plus-Depth) are selected in our experiments. As a result, our proposal successfully ensures the appropriate quality of service and quality of experience to the end users when the service of stereoscopic IPTV is being delivered.Polytechnic University of Valencia, Grant/Award Number: PAID-15-11; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion, Grant/Award Number: TEC2011-27516Canovas Solbes, A.; Taha, M.; Lloret, J.; Tomás Gironés, J.
