“…On the contrary, the stability and the accuracy of measurements obtained with IGI and PTR increase when the intensity of the cross-traffic is higher. PathChirp constantly overestimates available bandwidth and its measurements are quite unstable -this is a well-know problem of this tool and similar results have been obtained in [16], [18], [23]. Pathload and Yaz are quite accurate and their results are similar; this is justified by the fact that Yaz is a modified version of Pathload.…”

Abstract. The available bandwidth of a network path impacts the performance of many applications, such as VoIP calls, video streaming and P2P content distribution systems. Several tools for bandwidth estimation have been proposed in the last years but there is still uncertainty in their accuracy and efficiency under different network conditions. Although a number of experimental evaluations have been carried out in order to compare some of these methods, a comprehensive evaluation of all the existing active tools for available bandwidth estimation is still missing. This article introduces an empirical comparison of most of the active estimation tools actually implemented and freely available nowadays. Abing, ASSOLO, DietTopp, IGI, pathChirp, Pathload, PTR, Spruce and Yaz have been compared in a controlled environment and in presence of different sources of cross-traffic. The performance of each tool has been investigated in terms of accuracy, time and traffic injected into the network to perform an estimation.

“…Other works like AB-Shoot [13], S-chirp [14], FEAT [15] , BART [16] or MR-BART [17] have also been proposed in the past. However, the source codes of these tools have never been released publicly or the methods have been implemented only in simulations.…”

“…Since the SH mechanism involves more than one iteration of bottom-up and top-down traversals (unlike the MC mechanism which has only one iteration), we propose methods to prevent deviations in any iteration. Shneidman et al [14] proposed the concept of faithful implementation of a mechanism. When the distributed mechanisms are implemented by the agents themselves, they may deviate from the specified algorithm if it is beneficial to do so.…”

“…Many tools exist for estimating available bandwidth in an end-to-end context; that is, without requiring directly gathering information from the intermediate topology. ABETs such as Pathload [20], Spruce [34], Assolo [17], Yaz [33], and BART [14] all propose different approaches for available bandwidth estimation. In our experiments we have used the PathChirp [32] ABET, which has performed well in such comparisons, has a publicly available implementation and, as shown in our previous work [27], is suitable, when appropriately parameterized, for use in IPTV admission control schemes.…”

Federation Lifecycle Management Incorporating Coordination of Bio-inspired Self-management Processes

et al. 2013

As it has evolved, the Internet has had to support a broadening range of networking technologies, business models and user interaction modes. Researchers and industry practitioners have realised that this trend necessitates a fundamental rethinking of approaches to network and service management. This has spurred significant research efforts towards developing autonomic network management solutions incorporating distributed self-management processes inspired by biological systems. Whilst significant advances have been made, most solutions focus on management of single network domains and the optimisation of specific management or control processes therein. In this paper we argue that a networking infrastructure providing a myriad of loosely coupled services must inherently support federation of network domains and facilitate coordination of the operation of various management processes for mutual benefit. To this end, we outline a framework for federated management that facilitates the coordination of the behaviour of bio-inspired management processes. Using a case study relating to distribution of IPTV content, we describe how Federal Relationship Managers realising our layered model of management federations can communicate to manage service provision across multiple application/storage/network providers. We outline an illustrative example in which storage providers are dynamically added to a federation to accommodate demand spikes, with appropriate content being migrated to those providers servers under control of a bio-inspired replication process.
