Self-management of Lambda-Connections in Optical Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new idea for the management of lambda-connections in optical networks. The idea consists of making multi-service optical switches responsible for automatically detecting IP flows at the packet-level, creating lambda-connections for them, and moving them to the optical-level. In addition to that, they are also in charge of tearing down the connections when no longer needed. This new idea is the result of 1 year of research work at the University of Twente (UT) and it is aimed at resulting in a Ph.D. thesis by the end of 4 years of Ph.D. research.

An Architecture for the Self-management of Lambda-Connections in Hybrid Networks
Hybrid networks are networks capable of switching data at multiple levels (optical and IP packet level) by means of multi-service optical switches. As a result of that, huge flows at the IP-level may be moved to the optical-level, which is faster than the packet-level. Such move could be beneficial since congested IP networks could be off-loaded, leaving more resources for other IP flows. At th...
متن کاملUsing Self-management for Establishing Light Paths in Optical Networks: an Overview
Current optical networks are generally composed of multi-service optical switches, which enable forwarding of data at multiple levels. Huge flows at the packet-level (IP-level) may be moved to the optical-level, which is faster than the packet-level. Such move could be beneficial since congested IP networks could be off-loaded, leaving more resources for other IP flows. At the same time, the fl...
متن کاملOffloading IP Flows onto Lambda-Connections
Optical networks are capable of switching IP traffic via lambda connections. In this way, big IP flows that overload the regular IP routing level may be moved to the optical level, where they get better Quality of Service (QoS). At the same time, the IP routing level is off-loaded and can serve smaller flows better. Within this context, this paper analyses the eligibility of IP flows to be move...
متن کاملA Statistical Analysis of Network Parameters for the Self-management of Lambda-Connections
Network monitoring plays an important role in network management. Through the analysis of network parameters (e.g., flow throughput), managers can observe network behavior and make decisions based on them. The choice of network parameters although should be relevant for each specific objective. In this paper, we focus on the analysis of network parameters that are relevant for our self-manageme...
متن کاملتشخیص اجتماعات ترکیبی در شبکه‌های اجتماعی
One of the great challenges in Social Network Analysis (SNA) is community detection. Community is a group of vertices which have high intra connections and sparse inter connections. Community detection or Clustering reveals community structure of social networks and hidden relationships among their constituents. By considering the increase of datasets related to social networks, we need scalabl...
