Generating Realistic TCP Workloads
نویسندگان
چکیده
The workload of a network is usually a heterogeneous aggregate of services and applications, driven by a large number of users. This complexity makes it challenging to evaluate the performance of network mechanisms and configurations under realistic conditions. We propose a new methodology for transforming anonymized traces of packet headers into application-neutral models of network traffic. These models are suitable for synthetic traffic generation in simulations and testbeds, preserving the end-to-end nature of network traffic. Our approach provides a tool for studying and tuning the realism of synthetic traffic.

FÉLIX HERNÁNDEZ-CAMPOS: Generation and Validation of Empirically-Derived TCP Application Workloads. (Under the direction of Kevin Jeffay) This dissertation proposes and evaluates a new approach for generating realistic traffic in networking experiments. The main problem solved by our approach is generating closed-loop traffic consistent with the behavior of the entire set of applications in mod...
متن کاملAMP: A Better Multipath TCP for Data Center Networks
In recent years several multipath data transport mechanisms, such as MPTCP and XMP, have been introduced to effectively exploit the path diversity of data center networks (DCNs). However, these multipath schemes have not been widely deployed in DCNs. We argue that two key factors among others impeded their adoption: TCP incast and minimum window syndrome. First, these mechanisms are ill-suited ...
متن کاملArchitectural Characterization of TCP/IP Packet Processing on the Pentium M Microprocessor
A majority of the current and next generation server applications (web services, e-commerce, storage, etc.) employ TCP/IP as the communication protocol of choice. As a result, the performance of these applications is heavily dependent on the efficient TCP/IP packet processing within the termination nodes. This dependency becomes even greater as the bandwidth needs of these applications grow fro...
متن کاملBigDataBench-MT: A Benchmark Tool for Generating Realistic Mixed Data Center Workloads
Long-running service workloads (e.g. web search engine) and short-term data analysis workloads (e.g. Hadoop MapReduce jobs) colocate in today’s data centers. Developing realistic benchmarks to reflect such practical scenario of mixed workload is a key problem to produce trustworthy results when evaluating and comparing data center systems. This requires using actual workloads as well as guarant...
