P2PStudio - Monitoring, Controlling and Visualization Tool for Peer-to-Peer Networks Research

2006

Peer-to-Peer Studio has been developed as a monitoring, controlling and visualization tool for peer-to-peer networks. It uses a centralized architecture to gather events from a peer-to-peer network and can be used to visualize network topology and to send different commands to individual peer-to-peer nodes. The tool has been used with Chedar Peer-to-Peer network to study the behavior of different peer-to-peer resource discovery and topology management algorithms and for visualizing the results of NeuroSearch resource discovery algorithm produced by the Peer-to-Peer Realm network simulator. This paper presents the features, the architecture and the protocols of Peer-to-Peer Studio and the ex…

Network and System Performance Management for Next Generation Networks

2006

The physical and logical structures of next generation network and service environment is complex and requires increasingly sophisticated and complicated tools to be fully controllable and well managed. The main problem that has risen is that the old telemanagement model has not enough flexibility to manage rapidly and constantly changing network environment. 3G and 4G networks are basically IP based and the knowledge of IP type traffic management is somewhat new and challenging to telecom vendors. The present way of controlling and managing telecom systems is to use Non Real Time off-line PM (Performance Monitoring) and tools. Time periods between tuning can now be some days to some weeks …

Topology management in unstructured P2P networks using neural networks

2007

Resource discovery is an essential problem in peer-to-peer networks since there is no centralized index in which to look for information about resources. In a pure P2P network peers act as servers and clients at the same time and in the Gnutella network for example, peers know only their neighbors. In addition to developing different kinds of resource discovery algorithms, one approach is to study the different topologies or structures of the P2P network. In many cases topology management is based on either technical characteristics of the peers or their interests based on the previous resource queries. In this paper, we propose a topology management algorithm which does not predetermine fa…

A Logical Architecture for Active Network Management

2006

This paper focuses on improving network management by exploiting the potential of “doing” of the Active Networks technology, together with the potential of “planning,” which is typical of the artificial intelligent systems. We propose a distributed multiagent architecture for Active Network management, which exploits the dynamic reasoning capabilities of the Situation Calculus in order to emulate the reactive behavior of a human expert to fault situations. The information related to network events is generated by programmable sensors deployed across the network. A logical entity collects this information, in order to merge it with general domain knowledge, with a view to identifying the roo…

Exploiting Deductive Processes for Automated Network Management

2005

This paper focuses on improving network management by the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques. We propose a distributed multiagent architecture for network management, which exploits the dynamic reasoning capabilities of the situation calculus in order to emulate the reactive behavior of a human expert to fault situations. The information related to network events is generated by programmable sensors deployed on the network devices and is collected by a logical entity for network managing where it is merged with general domain knowledge, with a view to identifying the root causes of faults and to decide on reparative actions. The logical inference system has been devised to carry…

A Logical Framework for Augmented Simulations of Wireless Sensor Networks

2006

This paper describes a framework for practical and efficient monitoring of a wireless sensor network. The architecture proposed exploits the dynamic reasoning capabilities of the situation calculus in order to assess the sensor network behavior before actually deploying all the nodes. Designing a wireless sensor network for a specific application typically involves a preliminary phase of simulations that rely on specialized software, whose behavior does not necessarily reproduce what will be experienced by an actual network. On the other hand, delaying the test phase until deployment may not be advisable due to unreasonable costs. This paper suggests the adoption of a hybrid approach that i…

Distributed intelligent management,of active networks

2003

This paper focuses on improving computer network management by the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques. A logical inference system has being devised to enable automated isolation, diagnosis, and even repair of network problems, thus enhancing the reliability, performance, and security of networks. We propose a distributed multi-agent architecture for network management, where a logical reasoner acts as an external managing entity capable of directing, coordinating, and stimulating actions in an active management architecture. The active networks technology represents the lower level layer which makes possible the deployment of code which implement teleo-reactive agents, distribut…

From vertical to horizontal architecture

2006

Some of the main challenges related to wireless sensor networks implementation are low-quality communication, energy conservation, resource-constrained computation, distributed network management, data processing and the scalability of the protocols. This combination makes the implementation of software a demanding task and encourages to new approaches when thinking of software architecture.In this paper an architecture combining a low protocol stack with a cross-layer management entity is presented. One of the main ideas behind the architecture presented is to make application programming easier and to simplify the protocol stack in such a way that it would suit better for the limited reso…

Rule based reasoning for network management

2006

This paper focuses on improving network management by the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques. We propose a distributed multi-agent architecture for network management, where a logical reasoner acts as a managing entity capable of directing, coordinating, and triggering monitoring and management actions in the proposed architecture. The logical inference system has been devised to enable automated isolation, diagnosis, and to repair network anomalies, thus enhancing the reliability, performance, and security of the network. The measurements of network events are captured by programmable sensors deployed on the network devices and are collected by the network management entity whe…

A management architecture for active networks

2003

In this paper we present an architecture for network and applications management, which is based on the Active Networks paradigm and shows the advantages of network programmability. The stimulus to develop this architecture arises from an actual need to manage a cluster of active nodes, where it is often required to redeploy network assets and modify nodes connectivity. In our architecture, a remote front-end of the managing entity allows the operator to design new network topologies, to check the status of the nodes and to configure them. Moreover, the proposed framework allows to explore an active network, to monitor the active applications, to query each node and to install programmable …
