Network-provider-independent overlays for resilience and quality of service.
PhDOverlay networks are viewed as one of the solutions addressing the inefficiency and slow
evolution of the Internet and have been the subject of significant research. Most existing
overlays providing resilience and/or Quality of Service (QoS) need cooperation among
different network providers, but an inter-trust issue arises and cannot be easily solved.
In this thesis, we mainly focus on network-provider-independent overlays and investigate
their performance in providing two different types of service. Specifically, this thesis
addresses the following problems:
Provider-independent overlay architecture: A provider-independent overlay
framework named Resilient Overlay for Mission-Critical Applications (ROMCA)
is proposed. We elaborate its structure including component composition and
functions and also provide several operational examples.
Overlay topology construction for providing resilience service: We investigate the topology design problem of provider-independent overlays aiming to provide resilience service. To be more specific, based on the ROMCA framework, we
formulate this problem mathematically and prove its NP-hardness. Three heuristics are proposed and extensive simulations are carried out to verify their effectiveness.
Application mapping with resilience and QoS guarantees: Assuming application mapping is the targeted service for ROMCA, we formulate this problem as
an Integer Linear Program (ILP). Moreover, a simple but effective heuristic is
proposed to address this issue in a time-efficient manner. Simulations with both
synthetic and real networks prove the superiority of both solutions over existing
ones.
Substrate topology information availability and the impact of its accuracy on overlay performance: Based on our survey that summarizes the methodologies available for inferring the selective substrate topology formed among a group
of nodes through active probing, we find that such information is usually inaccurate
and additional mechanisms are needed to secure a better inferred topology. Therefore, we examine the impact of inferred substrate topology accuracy on overlay
performance given only inferred substrate topology information
Location Management in IP-based Future LEO Satellite Networks: A Review
Future integrated terrestrial, aerial, and space networks will involve
thousands of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites forming a network of
mega-constellations, which will play a significant role in providing
communication and Internet services everywhere, at any time, and for
everything. Due to its very large scale and highly dynamic nature, future LEO
satellite networks (SatNets) management is a very complicated and crucial
process, especially the mobility management aspect and its two components
location management and handover management. In this article, we present a
comprehensive and critical review of the state-of-the-art research in LEO
SatNets location management. First, we give an overview of the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) mobility management standards (e.g., Mobile IPv6
and Proxy Mobile IPv6) and discuss their location management techniques
limitations in the environment of future LEO SatNets. We highlight future LEO
SatNets mobility characteristics and their challenging features and describe
two unprecedented future location management scenarios. A taxonomy of the
available location management solutions for LEO SatNets is presented, where the
solutions are classified into three approaches. The "Issues to consider"
section draws attention to critical points related to each of the reviewed
approaches that should be considered in future LEO SatNets location management.
To identify the gaps, the current state of LEO SatNets location management is
summarized. Noteworthy future research directions are recommended. This article
is providing a road map for researchers and industry to shape the future of LEO
SatNets location management.Comment: Submitted to the Proceedings of the IEE
Proceedings of the Third Edition of the Annual Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services (WONS 2006)
Ce fichier regroupe en un seul documents l'ensemble des articles accéptés pour la conférences WONS2006/http://citi.insa-lyon.fr/wons2006/index.htmlThis year, 56 papers were submitted. From the Open Call submissions we accepted 16 papers as full papers (up to 12 pages) and 8 papers as short papers (up to 6 pages). All the accepted papers will be presented orally in the Workshop sessions. More precisely, the selected papers have been organized in 7 session: Channel access and scheduling, Energy-aware Protocols, QoS in Mobile Ad-Hoc networks, Multihop Performance Issues, Wireless Internet, Applications and finally Security Issues. The papers (and authors) come from all parts of the world, confirming the international stature of this Workshop. The majority of the contributions are from Europe (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, UK). However, a significant number is from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Iran, Korea and USA. The proceedings also include two invited papers. We take this opportunity to thank all the authors who submitted their papers to WONS 2006. You helped make this event again a success
