The Squatting and Kicking strategies for self-provisioned, bandwidth resource sharing in multiclass networks

English: This article proposes a self-provisioned, Squatting and Kicking bandwidth resource sharing strategy for multiclass networks where differentiated services are not natively built. Moreover, this article provides a summary of the bandwidth constraints models and shows how the squatting and kicking strategies can be adapted to be the basis for a new bandwidth constraint model, which widens the range of techniques available to operators for bandwidth resource management in multiclass networks.Castellano: Este artículo propone unas estrategias para compartir ancho de banda en redes multi-clase de manera auto-gestionada, donde los servicios diferenciados no se soportan de manera nativa. Además, se provee una comparación de los modelos de ancho de banda limitado y cómo las estrategias "squat" y "kick" se pueden constituir como nuevo modelo. Dicho model ampliará el número de técnicas que los operadores tienen disponibles para la gestión de tráfico en redes multi-clase.Català: Aquest article proposa unes estratègies per a compartir l'amplada de banda en xarxes multi-classe de manera auto-gestionada, a on els serveis diferenciats no se suporten de manera nadiua. A més a més, se proveeix una comparació dels models d'amplada de banda limitat i com les estratègies "squat" i "kick" es poden constituir com a nou model. Aquest nou model ampliarà el nombre de tècniques de que disposen els operadors de xarxes multi-classe per a la gestió del tràfic

E3MS: A traffic engineering prototype for autoprovisioning services in IP/DiffServ/MPLS networks

This paper presents the testbed definition, implementation and trials of a new strategy for traffic autoprovisioning for MPLS and IP/DiffServ. This is the proof of concept of a new scenario for traffic engineering, for selfconfiguring control and end-to-end quality of service management by means of a tool based on Web Services. The system is structured in 3 layers: A Graphical User Interface, a Network Elements layer (an interface to physical devices) and, in the middle, a Network Management System layer, where decisions about admission, load balancing, path selection, rerouting and bandwidth allocation per class are taken. The system includes Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) and Background Monitoring System (BMS) modules to globally manage network resources. The so-called Squatter and Legalization mechanisms are introduced as novelties added to traffic engineering. Those strategies permit the use of part of the available resources from other classes only while unused by the class owning them. The trials hav validated the management system, using Cisco routers.Postprint (published version

Squat-based resource management strategy for enabling shared infrastructures over optical networks

This paper proposes a new paradigm and strategy for resource management in optical networks considering that resources allocated to a user or service can be squatted in by third parties temporarily in order to provide support for emergency situations or allocate traffic from different priorities that experience a sudden increase of demanded resources in the network. We introduce the strategies of Soft Squatting and Hard Squatting. Moreover, we propose a model and a preliminary evaluation for fibre infrastructure sharing in all-optical networks using the proposed squatting strategies
