Finale’ cs294-8 Design of Deeply Networked Systems Spring 2000 David Culler & Randy Katz U.C. Berkeley

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Technology as a Process Integration: What we can build into a system Innovation: breakthrough technologies Time Capability For deeply networked systems, system architecture currently lags technology Mainframe Minicomputer Personal Computer Workstation Server

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Emerging Application Paradigms Ubiquitous Computing Smart Spaces Sensor Nets Active Badges and Tags Home Networking, e-everything information Appliances Wearables Metaverse...

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Call to Architecture Technology exists (or will soon) to realize grand visions of where computing can go What’s missing? Architecture Framework that realizes the application vision from emerging technology –systematic application of design methods

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Architectural Components Internet “SuperServer” multitiered clusters TinyStations (PDAs, Emdedded Servers) Service Discovery Location Awareness Management (telemetry, diagnosis, debug) Power Adaptation Protocols Redundancy => Namespace, datapaths, control, principles of operation, error handling, security, robustness

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s What is Needed? Automatic Self-Configuration –Personalization on a Vast Scale –Plug-and-Play The OS of the Planet –New management concerns: protection, information utility, not scheduling the processor –What is the OS of the Internet? TCP plus queue scheduling in routers Adapts to You –Protection, Organization, Preferences by Example

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Technology Changes & Architectural Implications Zillions of Tiny Devices –Proliferation of information appliances, MEMS, etc. “Of course it’s connected!” –Cheap, ample bandwidth –“Always on” networking Vast (Technical) Capacity –Scalable computing in the infrastructure –Rapid decline in processing, memory, & storage cost Adaptive Self-Configuration Loosely Organized “Good Enough” Reliabilty and Availability Any-to-Any Transducers (dealing with heterogeneity, over time--legacy--and space) Communities (sharing)

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Deeply Networked Systems “Everything” is networked –Even very small things like sensors and actuators –Explosion in the number of connected end devices Processing moves towards the network edges –Protocol stack plus some ability to execute mobile code in network end devices Processing moves towards the network core –Services executing inside the network

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Topics we’ve examined Quest for “architecture” Ubiquitous computing “Dust mote” technology Java Car Mediated spaces Scalable cordination in network sensors Service discovery arch. Location awareness Power awareness Scalable, Available data structures Super-internet Architectures Sensor-Driven Databases Mobile and Cellular IPv6 Embedded Operating Systems Global coordination Systems support for location awareness Network Aware Applications Services Enabled New Internet Wireless MAC layers Multihop JINI environments Controlled devices, X10 GPS, heart rate, ….

cs294-8 lec. # cs294-8 s Today’s Exercise Break into groups of ~4 Spend 1/2 hour formulating a clear “open problem” in deeply networked system –what is the question? –what would it mean to solve it? –suggest approach and/or means of evaluation –easily stated (< 1 page) Each spend 5 minutes presenting them
