Abstract
Part 1: Autonomic and Decentralized Management International audience Energy efficiency has become a major research topic in the Internet community as a result of unprecedented rise in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector. One typical approach towards energy [...]Abstract
In Multi-Layer networks, where more than one layer is dynamic, i.e., connections are set up using not only the upper, e.g., IP layer but the underlying wavelength layer as well leads often to suboptimal performance due to long wavelength paths, that do not allow routing the traffic [...]Abstract
The P-SHIM6 architecture provides ISP independence to IPv6 sites without compromising scalability. This architecture is based on a middle-box, the P-SHIM6, which manages the SHIM6 protocol exchange on behalf of the nodes of a site, which are configured with provider independent addresses. [...]Abstract
International audience Due to the varying and dynamic characteristics of network traffic, the analysis of traffic flows is of paramount importance for net- work security, accounting and traffic engineering. The problem of ex- tracting knowledge from the traffic flows is known as [...]Abstract
International audience; The experimental evaluation of wireless and mobile networks is a challenge that rarely substitutes simulation in research works. This statement is even more evident in vehicular communications, due to the equipment and effort needed to obtain significant and [...]Abstract
A method is proposed to perform traffic engineering for Autonomous Systems by setting OSPF weights and distributing new metrics called node splitting ratios. The quality of the traffic engineering is comparable to that achievable using MPLS. The weights and splitting ratios can be [...]Abstract
We present measurements of stream lifetimes for Internet traffic on a backbone link in California and a university link in Auckland. We investigate the consequences of sampling techniques such as ignoring streams with six or fewer packets, since they usually account for less than [...]Abstract
Part 3: Resource Allocation; International audience; There has long been a need for a robust and reliable system which distributes traffic across multiple paths. In particular such a system must rarely reorder packets, must not require per-flow state, must cope with different paths [...]
