Is Simple Over-Provisioning Enough?
Current Internet: Growth of new IP services and applications with different bandwidth and quality of service requirements Revenue from the traditional connectivity services is declining New services present opportunities and challenges Even though average bandwidth utilization is low, congestion can happen; access links get congested frequently Wireless bandwidth is even more scarce Bandwidth prices are not dropping rapidly No intrinsic upper limit on bandwidth use A large number of new applications are appearing in the Internet. This includes real-time audio, video, and mission-critical financial data. It is difficult to predict the bandwidth. At the same time, revenue from the traditional connectivity services (raw bandwidth) is declining The ISP has new business opportunities, but also new challenges: Even though average bandwidth utilization is low, congestion can happen; access links get congested frequently; wireless bandwidth is even more scarce; Bandwidth prices are not dropping rapidly In addition, it is difficult to predict the various user requirements, especially due to the quick deployments of new applications. Also, recent history tells us that availability of more bandwidth will create its own demand through increasing utilization of bandwidth intensive applications. Another option: manage the existing bandwidth more efficiently Option - manage the existing bandwidth better, with a service model which uses bandwidth efficiently. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

More Efficient Service Models
Quality of Service (QoS) Condition the network to provide predictability to an application even during high user demand Provide multiple levels of services Problems: signaling to facilitate service negotiation; pricing scheme to support differentiated services Application adaptation Source rate adaptation based on network conditions - congestion control and efficient bandwidth utilization Problems: How will adaptive applications work with QoS-assured services? How to motivate an application to adapt? Two models currently can lead to more efficent bandwidth usage: QoS and Application adaptation QoS: Provide value-added services with QoS expectations even during high user demand. Provide multiple levels of QoS to meet diverse user requirements. Problems: To support multiple services with QoS - service providers need to provide a service selection and negotiation mechanism Also, for providing different services, network should price services based on QoS, or resources consumed to provide a certain QoS, and allocate resources based on user willingness-to-pay. Adaptation schemes in literature assume user adapts source rate based on knowledge of network statistics (polling, etc.) - able to control congestion at high loads Literature work in multimedia adaptation assumes best effort service, users are well-behaved, would adapt even without any incentive 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Design Goals Develop an efficient service model which combines QoS assurance with user rate adaptation Increase service value to the users through greater choices over price and quality, reduced blocking rate, and expected QoS Reduce network provision complexity, improve network efficiency and increase revenue to the providers; allow network operator to create different trade-offs between blocking admissions and raising congestion prices To support multiple services with QoS - service providers need to provide a service selection and negotiation mechanism (well-known example - RSVP) For efficient resource usage - network should be able to commit resources for a short-term, dynamically re-configure resources based on demand and network conditions, particularly if users are adaptive Network should price services based on QoS, or resources consumed to provide a certain QoS, and allocate resources based on user willingness-to-pay. Pricing should also serve as a signal and/or incentive for users to adapt All of the above translate to two main requirements: ….. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Existing Work Adaptive Internet Multimedia Applications
Sender-driven, receiver-driven, or transcoder-based Problems Fairness: non-adaptive applications benefit at the expense of adaptive applications resource allocation different for different adaptation schemes TCP friendly adaptation lead to abrupt changes in quality buffering smoothes the abrupt change at the cost of high delay No mechanism for rate adaptation in QoS-enhanced environment No motivation for users to adapt If some user adapt their service rate, the ones without adaptation can gain more bandwidth, which is not fair, and hence discourages the adaptive applications to adapt the source rate. In receiver-driven adaptation, receivers individually tune the received transmission according to their needs and capabilities. A number of receiver driven schemes use a combination of layered encoding, and a layered transmission scheme. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Existing Work (cont’d)
Signaling for Resource Reservation RSVP, YESSIR, SIBBS (Simple Inter-domain Bandwidth Broker Signaling protocol) Problems Restricted to either sender-driven or receiver-driven No support for service selection and negotiation No support for short-term resource commitment and dynamic resource negotiation No support for pricing and billing Per-flow RSVP was designed to enable the senders, receivers, and routers of communication sessions to communicate with each other in order to set up the necessary router state to support the services requested. The reservation request is sent from receivers. Both RSVP and YESSIR are distributed. SIBBS is a premitive protocol, which is used between domains brokers. It has only basic function so far, reservation, and confirmation. No mechanism to facilitate user to select from a spectrum of services, and allow user to dynamic negotiate. There is schemes for pricing and billing support, which is important for resource reservation. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Pricing and Billing in the Network Total user benefit maximization based on welfare theory problems: rely on a centralized optimization process assume knowledge of user’s utility functions Pricing for congestion control Kelly’99: packets are statistically marked control is applied at the packet level not scaling, and not clear delay effect on theoretical results Cocchi’93, Lazar’97: rely on well-defined source model Fulp’98: restricted to single class, control only at service setup time We will first present the background of this work We then describe the proposed resource negotiation framework, which consists of a Resource negotiation and pricing protocol, a pricing model, and a user adaptation model. Finally, we introduce our test-bed setup and also present some simulation results. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Pricing in Multi-service environment Qdlyzko’99: relies on user behavior, without service assurance Kumaran’99: restricted to special admission control algorithm Bandwidth Auction problems: signaling bursts, set-up delay, uncertainty of connection availability, user response to fluctuations in price Signaling Support for Pricing and Charging Very limited work in this area Karsten’98: estimated the cost for user resource requests no price quotation restricted to IntServ We will first present the background of this work We then describe the proposed resource negotiation framework, which consists of a Resource negotiation and pricing protocol, a pricing model, and a user adaptation model. Finally, we introduce our test-bed setup and also present some simulation results. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Thesis Contributions Propose a Resource Negotiation And Pricing protocol: RNAP Supports short-term resource commitment for better response to user demand and network conditions, and more efficient resource usage; allows for service predictability Includes mechanisms for price and charge collation, auction bids and results distribution Designed to be scalable and reliable; can be embedded in other protocols, or implemented independently Allows multi-party negotiation Develop a demand-sensitive pricing model for multiple services Services priced to reflect the cost and long-term user demand Allows for congestion pricing to motivate user adaptation Develop reference user adaptation models Our work: We demonstrate a complete resource negotiation framework on test-bed network We show significant advantages of this framework relative to static resource allocation and fixed pricing using simulations. The resource negotiation framework provides much lower service blocking rate under resource contention, provides service assurances even under large or bursty offered loads. It provides higher perceived user benefit and higher network revenue 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Protocol Architectures: Centralized (RNAP-C)
Host Resource Negotiator RNAP Messages Network Resource Negotiator NRN NRN NRN HRN HRN Access Domain - A We consider two alternative architectures for implementing RNAP in the network, a centralized architecture (RNAP-C) and a distributed architecture (RNAP-D) In RNAP-C, user negotiates through a HRN, each network domain has a NRN. In general, each NRN is in charge of admission control, monitoring network statistics, price quotation and charging for its domain. When a user wants to to apply for resources from the network, it first sends a request to the NRN of its access domain. This request is then propagated to next-domain NRN, and so on. Edge Router Access Domain - B Internal Router Intra-domain messages Transit Domain 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Protocol Architectures: Distributed (RNAP-D)
Local Resource Negotiator RNAP Messages HRN LRN LRN LRN LRN LRN LRN LRN LRN LRN HRN LRN LRN Access Domain - A LRN LRN Edge Router Access Domain - B In RNAP-D, Local Resource Negotiators (LRN) are implemented at each router. At network edge, LRNs dynamically configure traffic conditioners, based on on-going user requests. Internal Router Transit Domain 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

RNAP Messages Periodic negotiation
Query: Inquires about available services, prices Query Quotation Quotation: Specifies service availability, accumulates service statistics, prices Reserve Commit Reserve: Requests services and resources, Modifies earlier requests Periodic negotiation Quotation Commit: Confirms the service request at a specific price or denies it. Reserve We presents the messaging sequence between the users and network. This sequence also works between two network domains. If users do not need to find the service information, it could directly send the reserve message, instead of sending Query and wait for Quotation message first. If a user request negotiation functionality from network, the network will periodically provides the users with updated network status, allowing users to modify their requests. Commit Close: Tears down negotiation session Close Release: Releases the resources Release 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Pricing models User adaptation Test-bed demonstration of Resource Negotiation Framework Simulation and discussion of Resource Negotiation Framework Conclusion and future work Resource Negotiation Framework We will first present the background of this work We then describe the proposed resource negotiation framework, which consists of a Resource negotiation and pricing protocol, a pricing model, and a user adaptation model. Finally, we introduce our test-bed setup and also present some simulation results. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Two Volume-based Pricing Strategies
Fixed-Price (FP): fixed unit volume price During congestion: higher blocking rate OR higher dropping rate and delay Congestion-dependent-Price (CP): FP + congestion-sensitive price component During congestion: users have options to maintain service by paying more OR reducing sending rate OR switching to lower service class Overall reduced rate of service blocking, packet dropping and delay During resource contention, fixed price based frame work can only block the future arrivals or drop and delay the packets that have arrived. If adaptive pricing is allowed, there are some other options for users: quality sensitive applications can maintain their resource levels by paying more, quality insensitive applications will reduce their sending rate or change to a lower service class. As a result, the blocking rate and average packet loss and delay of the whole network can get improved. We will show this later in our simulation. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Proposed Pricing Strategies
Holding price and charge: based on cost of blocking other users by holding bandwidth even without sending data phj =  j (pu j - pu j-1) , chij (n) = ph j r ij (n) j Usage price and charge: maximize the provider’s profit, constrained by resource availability max [Σl x j (pu1 , pu2 , …, puJ ) puj - f(C)], s.t. r (x (pu2 , pu2 , …, puJ ))  R cuij (n) = pu j v ij (n) Congestion price and charge: drive demand to supply level (tatonnement process or auction) We proposed a pricing model, which comprise holding price, usage price and congestion price: The holding price is set to be proportional to the difference of the usage price of two neighboring service classes The usage price is set to maximize the network revenue, under the constraint of network resources. The congestion price is set to drive user demand to the target network resource utilization We will consider the usage price and congestion price setup in more details. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Usage Price for Differentiated Service
Usage price based on cost of class bandwidth: lower target load (higher QoS) -> higher per-unit bandwidth price Parameters: pbasic basic rate for fully used bandwidth  j : expected load ratio of class j xij : effective bandwidth consumption of application i Aj : constant elasticity demand parameter Price for class j: puj = pbasic /  j Demand of class j: xj ( puj ) = Aj / puj Effective bandwidth consumption: xe j ( puj ) = Aj / ( puj  j ) Network maximizes profit: max [Σl (Aj / pu j ) pu j - f (C)], puj = pbasic /  j , s. t. Σl Aj / ( pu j  j )  C Hence: pbasic = Σl Aj / C , puj = Σl Aj /(C j) For an environment with multiple service classes, a class with lower target utilization level will provide higher QoS expectation, but it will also involve higher bandwidth cost Assume bandwidth are fully used, and the basic price is pbasic; , assume the expected load of s service class is  j the price of a service class can be set to be reverse proportional to the target load of a service class If we assume the fixed elasticity user demand, that is the user demand will be reverse proportional to the usage price of the bandwidth, we can obtain the effective bandwidth usage as: xe j ( puj ) = Aj / ( puj  j ) If we set the price so that the network revenue is optimized, we can obtain the basic bandwidth price as … the price of a class is inverse proportional to the target load of the class, as we have seen earlier. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Congestion Price Tatonnement process M-bid auction Model
Congestion charge proportional to excess demand relative to target utilization pc j (n) = min [{pcj (n-1) +  j (Dj, Sj) x (Dj-Sj)/Sj,0 }+, pmaxj ] M-bid auction Model User bids (bandwidth, price) for a number of bandwidths, bids obtained by sampling utility function. Congestion price: charge highest rejected bid price Advantages: reduces uncertainty since user can express multiple preferences periodic auctions enable congestion control more users served during high demand: selects lower bandwidth (higher price per unit bandwidth) bids of elastic users inter-auction admission reduces set-up delay We consider two models for setting up the congestion price In the tatonnement model, the congestion price is adjusted that the demand is driven to the supply. Generally, there is an upper limit of the congestion price. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Rate Adaptation of Multimedia System
Gain optimal perceptual value of the system based on the network conditions and user profile Utility function: users’ preference or willingness to pay Example utility functions Utility is a function of bandwidth at fixed QoS U (x) = U0 +  log (x / xm) U0 : perceived (opportunity) value at minimum bandwidth  : sensitivity of the utility to bandwidth Function of both bandwidth and QoS U (x) = U0 +  log (x / xm) - kd d - kl l , for x  xm kd : sensitivity to delay kl : sensitivity to loss 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Rate-Adaptation Models
Model1: User adaptation under tatonnement process Optimize perceived surplus of the multimedia system subject to budget and application requirements U = Σi Ui (xi (Tspec, Rspec)] max [Σl Ui (xi ) - Ci (xi) ], s. t. Σl Ci (xi)  b , xmini  xi  xmaxi Determine optimal Tspec and Rspec With the example utility functions, resource request of application i: Without budget constraint: x i = i / pi With budget constraint: x i = bi / pi, with b i = b ( i / Σl  k) Model2: User adaptation under M-bid auction Adapt rate based on allocated bandwidth/QoS When the total resource requirements of all applications are within user’s budget, the resource allocated is set to be the user’s willingness to pay bandwidth When the total resource requirements of all applications are beyond user’s budget, the budget for a system is first distributed to each application based on users’ willingness to pay for that application, and the allocated budget is used to find the optimal resource allocation for an application In the auction model, the network will allocate the resources based on the users’ bidding. The application will adapt based the allocated price 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Testbed Architecture Demonstrate functionality and performance improvement: blocking rate, loss, delay, price stability, perceived media quality Host HRN negotiates for a system Host processes (HRN, VIC, RAT) communicate through Mbus Network Router: FreeBSD ALTQ 2.2, CBQ extended for DiffServ NRN: (1) Process RNAP messages; (2) Admission control, monitor statistics, compute price; (3) At edge, dynamically configure the conditioners and form charge Inter-entity signaling: RNAP RAT VIC Mbus HRN RNAP NRN The main objective behind our testbed work was to demonstrate the functionality of our resource negotiation framework, including RNAP, pricing, and user adaptation. We were also able to demonstrate performance improvements relative to a non-adaptive, fixed-price environment in terms of blocking rate, average loss and delay, price stability, and perceived media quality . 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Simulation Design Performance comparison: fixed price policy (FP) vs. congestion price based adaptive service (CPA) loss, delay, blocking rate, user benefit, network revenue, stability Three groups of experiments: effect of traffic load, admission control, and load balance between classes Weighted Round Robin (WRR) scheduler Three classes: EF, AF, BE EF: load threshold 40%, delay bound 2 ms, loss bound 10-6 AF: load threshold 60%, delay bound 5 ms, loss bound 10-4 BE: load threshold 90%,delay bound 100 ms,loss bound 10-2 Sources: mix of on-off traffic and Pareto on-off traffic 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Delay and Loss CPA or admission control maintains the traffic load at the targeted level, limits the packet delay and loss Without admission control, we can see the delay and loss increase almost linearly when the load is beyond the target level, and the targeted service are seriously violated. If adaptive framework is used, all the targeted service are assured. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Service Price Combining admission control with CPA results in better control of price dynamics. This is at the cost of higher user blocking rate. Combining admission control and user adaptation, the blocking rate can be greatly reduced (up to 40 times) Compared to without admission control, the price dynamics is reduced for the dynamic pricing scheme. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Network revenue and user benefit
CPA provides significantly higher revenue and user benefit FP with admission control has stable revenue due to blocking FP without admission control has much lower user benefit CPA The network revenue is kept almost constant when admission control is used, since the load above targeted level is blocked. The CPA framework gain much higher revenue since it serves the high valued customers. Since we have using the example user utility function that is sensitive to the loss and delay, the average user benefit of the static service drop sharply due to the higher loss and delay at high load. FP 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Blocking rate Coupled with user adaptation, the blocking rate of CPA is up to 30 times smaller than that of FP. This is at the cost of higher user blocking rate. Combining admission control and user adaptation, the blocking rate can be greatly reduced (up to 40 times) Compared to without admission control, the price dynamics is reduced for the dynamic pricing scheme. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Load Balance Between Classes
Even when a small portion of users (15%) select other service classes, the performance of the over-loaded class is greatly improved. Migrating to EF and BE 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Other Results Users with different demand elasticity share bandwidth proportional to their willingness to pay Even a small proportion of adaptive users (e.g 25%) results in a significant performance improvement for the entire user population (18% improvement) Performance of CPA further improves as the network scales and more connections share the resources Both M-bid auction and tatonnement process can be used to calculate the congestion price; auction gives higher perceived user benefit and network utilization at cost of implementation complexity and setup delay 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Conclusions Proposed a dynamic resource negotiation framework consisting of: A Resource Negotiation And Pricing protocol (RNAP) , a rate and QoS adaptation model, and a pricing model RNAP: dynamic service negotiation support for pricing and charging Pricing models: based on resources consumed by service class and long-term user demand; congestion-sensitive component to motivate user demand adaptation novel M-bid auction model for congestion pricing Performance: Effectively restricts load to targeted level and meet service assurance Provide lower blocking rate, higher user satisfaction and network revenue Admission control and inter-service class adaptation give further improvements in blocking rate and price stability 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Measurements and Analysis of
LDAP Performance Xin Wang, Columbia University

Problems and Contributions
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): widely used, but little study of performance Related work: Mindcraft’98 treated LDAP server as black box, did not study the influence of system components Thesis contributions: Developed a benchmark tool to analyze the performance of LDAP Provided guidelines for the configuration of LDAP client and server Suggested schemes for LDAP performance improvement Is the first effort to address LDAP performance issues and configuration issues LDAP usage context: management of network resources, pricing policies cachesize: size in entries of in-memory cache; variable size dbcachesize: size in bytes of the in-memory cache associated with each open index file; 10 MB 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Experiments Experimental setup: General results:
Hardware: server- dual Ultra-2 processors, 200 MHz CPUs, 256 Mb memory; Clients- Ultra1, 170 MHz CPU, 128 MB memory; 10 Mb/s Ethernet LDAP server: OpenLDAP 1.2, Berkeley DB Search filter: interface address, and corresponding policy object Default parameters: 10,000 entries, entry size 488 bytes General results: response latency 8 ms up to 105 requests/second Maximum throughput 140 requests/second 5 ms processing latency - 36% from backend, 64% from front end Connect time dominates at high load, and limits the throughput 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Scalability of the Performance
Scaling with Directory Size - determined by back-end processing In memory operation, 10,000 -> 50,000: processing time increases 60%, throughput reduces 21%. Out-of-memory, 50,000 ->100,000: processing time increases another 87%, and throughput reduces 23%. Scaling with Entry Size (488 ->4880 bytes): In-memory, mainly increase in front-end processing, i.e., time for ASN.1 encoding . Processing time increases 8 ms, 88% due to ASN.1 encoding, and throughput reduces 30%. Out-of-memory, throughput reduces 70%, mainly due to increased data transfer time. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Performance Improvement
Disabling TCP Nagle algorithm Reduces latency about 50 ms Entry Caching: For 10,000 entry directory, caching all entries gives 40% improvement in processing time, 25% improvement in throughput CPU: For in-memory operation, dual processors improve performance by 40% Connection Re-use: 60% performance gain when connection left open 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

IP Multicast Fault Recovery
in PIM over OSPF Xin Wang, Columbia University

Problems and Contributions
Many IP multicast applications require high availability, especially mission-critical real-time data A lot of work on reliable multicast, but little work on multicast fault tolerance Study failure recovery in a complete architecture: IGMP + OSPF (unicast) + PIM (multicast) Focus: the interplay of underlying protocols; the interactions of failure recovery, between routers, links, WAN and LAN Method: quantitative analysis; simulation over OPNET; study failure recovery and implementation issues on test-bed using Cisco routers Many IP multicast applications require high availability, for example, near real-time dissemination of financial information; Little work has been done in this field. OSPF: rapid fault recovery properties, widespread use, support of parameteric tuning; while RIP has long, non-tunable fair-over periods. PIM (DM and SM): dominant multicast routing protocols. DVMRP or CBT resemble dense and sparse mode respectively. Since fault recovery for rendezvous point (RP) for PIM SM has been studied extensively, our focus is on the sequence of events and interactions under different failures, between router, link, WAN and LAN; Consider single link and router faults. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

General Observations Channel recovery time Protocol control loads:
Dominated by unicast table re-construction time. Protocol control loads: PIM-DM control load increases proportionally with the redundancy factor and decreases inversely with the percentage of receivers Below certain interval threshold, OSPF load increases proportionally as OSPF Hello interval decreases Neither PIM nor OSPF has high control traffic during failure recovery. 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Suggestions for Enhancement
Fast recovery from Dedicated Router (DR) failure Reduce Hello-Holdtime to detect neighbor failure faster; Backup DR IGMP group information caching in all LAN routers (reloading group membership information leads to minutes delay) Fast recovery from last-hop router failure DR records the last-hop router address, actively recover, instead of waiting for an IGMP report to reactivate its oif to the LAN (up to minutes delay) Use interrupts instead of polling to reduce recovering delay 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Message Aggregation (RNAP-D)
Turn off router alert Turn on router alert If each flow needs a RNAP session, it can’t scale. We consider a sink-tree based aggregation mechanism: aggregate messages when senders share the same destination network Messages merged by source or intermediate domains At network edge, the router alert function is turned off. As a result, the original per-flow messages will be tunneled directly to the destination network, without interception by intermediate RNAP agents; aggregate message reserves and collects price at intermediate nodes/domains Messages de-aggregated at destination border routers (RNAP-D), or NRNs (RNAP-C) Overhead Reduction Processing overhead, storage of states Edge Routers Sink-tree-based aggregation 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University

Block Negotiation (Network-Network)
Aggregated resources are added/removed in large blocks to minimize negotiation overhead and reduce network dynamics Bandwidth In the above aggregation scheme, all the flows need to be synchronized, which is not practical. Each flow arrival will modify the aggregation message, resulting high overhead. In practice, we proposed to use the block negotiation mechanism: aggregated resources are added/removed in large blocks to minimize negotiation overhead and reduce network dynamics time 11/27/2018 Xin Wang, Henning Schulzrinne, Columbia University Xin Wang, Columbia University
