AQM Stability in Multiple Bottleneck Networks
2004
In this paper, we highlight that multiple bottlenecks can affect the performance of active queue management controllers, which are usually configured on a single bottleneck basis, as if each controller were the only element regulating the TCP traffic along its path. To see this, we consider a network scenario where RED is configured at each router, according to previously developed control theoretic techniques. These configuration rules assure stability in a single bottleneck scenario. Yet, we show that instability may arise when two link become congested. We justify this result through a multiple bottleneck model and give guidelines for new cooperative AQM controllers.
Flexible Spare Core Placement in Torus Topology based NoCs and its validation on an FPGA
2021
In the nano-scale era, Network-on-Chip (NoC) interconnection paradigm has gained importance to abide by the communication challenges in Chip Multi-Processors (CMPs). With increased integration density on CMPs, NoC components namely cores, routers, and links are susceptible to failures. Therefore, to improve system reliability, there is a need for efficient fault-tolerant techniques that mitigate permanent faults in NoC based CMPs. There exists several fault-tolerant techniques that address the permanent faults in application cores while placing the spare cores onto NoC topologies. However, these techniques are limited to Mesh topology based NoCs. There are few approaches that have realized …

Strong signature of selection in seeder populations but not in resprouters of the fynbos heathErica coccinea(Ericaceae)
2016
A higher frequency of natural selection is expected in populations of organisms with shorter generation times. In fire-prone ecosystems, populations of seeder plants behave as functionally semelparous populations, with short generation times compared to populations of resprouter plants, which are truly iteroparous. Therefore, a stronger signature of natural selection should be detected in seeder populations, favoured by their shorter generation times and higher rates of population turnover. Here we test this idea in Erica coccinea from the Cape Floristic Region, which is dimorphic for post-fire regeneration mode. We measured three floral traits supposedly subject to natural selection in see…
PCP: An End-to end Measurement Based Call Admission Control for Real-Time Services Over IP Networks
2000
Distributed end-to-end measurement based connection admission control mechanisms have been recently proposed. The goal of these schemes is to provide tight QoScon trol on a per connection basis by means of measurements taken by the edge nodes and priority based forwarding procedure at internal nodes. Since the additional flows handling procedures are implemented at the border routers and the forwarding mechanisms are for flows aggregates only, the approach is fully scalable and compatible with the IETF Differentiated Service proposal. The aim of this paper is to propose specific schemes and to investigate the advantages and limits of the approach by analyzing the basic mechanisms and evalua…
Performance evaluation of OpenFlow enabled Commodity and Raspberry-pi Wireless Routers
2017
Software defined network (SDN) allows the decoupling of data and control plane for dynamic and scalable network management. SDN is usually associated with OpenFlow protocol which is a standard interface that enables the network controllers to determine the path of network packets across a network of switches. In this paper, we evaluate openflow performance using commodity wireless router and raspberry pi with two different SDN controllers. Our test setup consists of wired and wireless client devices connected to openflow enabled commodity wireless router and raspberry pi. All clients used traffic generator tool to transmits data to a sink server host. The results are promising and paves the…
A Discrete Model for a Network Having Broken Packages
2009
Broken packages are packages with not enough information regarding the destination address and they have a negative impact on a computer network. Broken packages stay in the router too much time and overload it. This is a real problem which appears in the computer network of Sofia University. We know only the time when a broken package arrives in the router. The problem is to find the computer which send broken packages. The aim of this article is to propose a model for defining the data transmission stability and correctness in a computer network. Our theoretical model is temporal dependent and captures the transmission properties of a computer network.
An API for Advanced Traffic Control in Diffserv Routers
2003
Distributed per-flow admission control is a promising solution for Differentiated Services networks. Its deployment in DiffSery domains requires the ability to suitably configure, in each network router, low-level packet forwarding mechanisms, such as packet dropping algorithms driven by traffic measurements. In this paper we first show that performance effectiveness is achieved by means of non traditional configuration of the forwarding mechanisms. Hence, we propose a modular Application Program Interface that allows to flexibly and adaptively configure the forwarding/dropping behavior associated to a router’s output queue, well beyond the traditional RED/RIO active queue management scheme…
A TDMA-Based MAC Protocol Supporting Cooperative Communications in Wireless Mesh Networks
2011
This paper proposes a TDMA-based medium access control protocol which enables cooperative communications in multi-hop wireless mesh networks. According to the proposed scheme, each router at the two-hop neighbourhood of each other is allocated to a specific time slot for accommodating either direct or cooperative transmissions in a coordinated manner, controlled by mini-slots which are part of the time slot. Benefiting from the elaborate mini-slot design, channel resources are fairly and efficiently allocated to each router so that no handshake is needed prior to each packet transmission. By providing access priority to cooperative transmission through an optimal relay which is determined b…
Fault Tolerant Routing Methodology for Mesh-of-Tree based Network-on-Chips using Local Reconfiguration
2018
Increase in the processing elements in a System-on- Chip (SoC) has led to an increasing complexity between the cores in the entire network. This communication bottleneck led to rise in the new paradigm called Network-on-Chip (NoC). These NoC are very much susceptible to various types of faults which can be transient, intermittent or permanent. This paper presents a fault-tolerant routing technique which can route the packets from a source to a destination in presence of permanent faults in the leaf routers of Mesh-of-Tree topology where cores are connected. This is achieved by using reconfiguration in the local ports of the leaf routers by inserting multiplexers as a layer between the leaf …
