“…The field of AN provides a novel infrastructure that moves from a model of data communications to a networking model that supports program communicationresulting in a system that is open and programmable [23] and hardware evolvable. In these methodologies, each message injected into the network by individual users and/or administrators contains an active component which is executed by selected routers and switches along its path to meet a QoS threshold.…”

The foraging behavior of active honeybee colonies serves as a model for Web explorers that are reactive, proactive, and robust. The Web explorers are developed to forage a simulated information ecosystem-the Internet-for useful information. Each explorer is designed to detect and report dynamic changes within the infrastructure of the Internet to its Web explorer dispatcher, which is responsible for coordinating thousands of explorers. Experimental results are presented.

“…Computational intelligence (CI) techniques [23] were used to decentralize Internet routing with such heuristics as learning, improvement through learning, flexibility, adaptation, and abstraction. This approach combined the Turing machine features with the above heuristics to effectively support complex systems.…”

“…More specifically, we are moving away from the "monolithic" approach whereby systems are vertically integrated to a component-based approach whereby systems are made of multiple components from different manufacturers, which may interact with each other through open interfaces to form a service [6]. The result is a truly open service platform, possibly with intelligence [44], representing a marketplace wherein services and service providers compete with each other, while customers may select and customize services according to their needs.…”

It has been more than a decade since the introduction of programmability in the network elements as the basis for providing rapid deployment and customization of new services across heterogeneous networks. Different fields, research initiatives and fora at different or same points in time have attempted in their own way to give their definition of programmability and how it should be realized to facilitate service deployment. Although these efforts seem, from the outset, as antagonistic to each other, and most of the time heavily dependent on the underlying networking technology, strong evidence points toward common features, that when put together, as pieces of a puzzle, give rise to a common picture which, we believe, is representative of the term "programmable networks." In this paper, we are going to bring out and elaborate on a number of such features, arguing are they are the ingredients that serve as building materials and principles to the next generation network element architecture enabled to realize the yet elusive rapid service deployment. Our analysis will draw from the state of the art and our experiences in working in the future active IP network (FAIN) [37] project. As a result, we will take advantage of these observations and propose a new protocol that allows a programmable network to be configured in such a way that new functionality may be requested and installed, thus, extending the capabilities and the services offered by the network.Index Terms-Active networks, component-based architectures, execution environments, programmable networks, service composition protocol.

SUMMARYThe centralized system approach for computer and telecommunication network management has been presenting scalability problems along with the growth in the amount and diversity of managed equipment. Moreover, the increase in complexity of the services being offered through the networks also contributes to adding extra workload to the management station. The amount of data that must be handled and processed by only one administration point could lead to a situation where there is not enough processing and storage power to carry out an efficient job. In this work we present an alternative approach by creating a highly distributed computing environment through the use of Grids of autonomous agents to analyze large amounts of data, which reduce the processing costs by optimizing the load distribution and resource utilization.
