This document proposes a new network stack architecture called Serval that is designed for modern online services. The key aspects of Serval are:
1) It introduces a new Service Access Layer (SAL) between the transport and network layers that allows applications to communicate using service names instead of addresses and ports.
2) The SAL maps service names to network addresses using rules in a service table, similar to how the network layer uses forwarding tables. This elevates services to first-class network entities.
3) The SAL provides a clean separation between the service control plane and data plane. The control plane can be programmed through a user-space interface to update service mappings based on events from active sockets.

VCN: Vehicular Cloud Network Using RBMR Protocol for Efficient Link Stability...IJLT EMAS
VCN is Vehicular Cloud Network which is the combination of VANET and cloud. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) technology has been used in many of the applications such as avoiding traffic jam on roadways and airways, preventing the vehicles from accidents and so on. It serve as one of the best platform to meet with group-oriented services which comes under one of the primary application classes. Multicast routing is used to support such services. In such cases one must have to ensure better packet delivery ratio, lower delays and reduced control overheads. Thus, there is a need to design stable and reliable multicast routing protocols for VANETs. In this paper, we proposed a Receiver Based Multicast Routing Protocol that finds a best way to perform the multicast traffic. RBMulticast stores destination list inside the packet header, this destination list provides information on all multicast members to which this packet is targeted .And it stores the traced information or data in the cloud for given period of time. Thus, the multicast tree is not required for this process and therefore no tree state stored at the intermediate nodes.

A framework for secure and efficient data acquisitionLavanya Bandla
This document presents a framework called REACT for secure and efficient data acquisition in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). REACT uses roadside units (RSUs) that vehicles can connect to in order to register, authenticate, and securely transmit sensitive data. The document describes the architecture of REACT, which includes how vehicles register with RSUs, how passwords are derived hierarchically for authentication, and the packet format used for communication. It analyzes the encryption delays associated with REACT and discusses the tradeoff between improving network performance through increased RSU deployment and the associated increased costs. The document concludes that an RSU scheduling mechanism is being designed to distribute load among time slots to improve efficiency.

CONTAINERIZED SERVICES ORCHESTRATION FOR EDGE COMPUTING IN SOFTWARE-DEFINED W...IJCNCJournal
As SD-WAN disrupts legacy WAN technologies and becomes the preferred WAN technology adopted by corporations, and Kubernetes becomes the de-facto container orchestration tool, the opportunities for deploying edge-computing containerized applications running over SD-WAN are vast. Service orchestration in SD-WAN has not been provided with enough attention, resulting in the lack of research focused on service discovery in these scenarios. In this article, an in-house service discovery solution that works alongside Kubernetes’ master node for allowing improved traffic handling and better user experience when running micro-services is developed. The service discovery solution was conceived following a design science research approach. Our research includes the implementation of a proof-ofconcept SD-WAN topology alongside a Kubernetes cluster that allows us to deploy custom services and delimit the necessary characteristics of our in-house solution. Also, the implementation's performance is tested based on the required times for updating the discovery solution according to service updates. Finally, some conclusions and modifications are pointed out based on the results, while also discussing possible enhancements.
Application Engineered Routing Segment Routing and the Cisco WAN Automation ...Cisco Service Provider
The Cisco® Application Engineered Routing solution provides end-to-end control over how the network infrastructure transports applications. In the past, dedicated clusters of servers would deliver specific applications, but the number and diversity of applications continue to increase as the infrastructure becomes more converged.
Traffic patterns are dynamically changing and new applications come with specific transport requirements. Combining Segment Routing (SR) with the Cisco WAN Automation Engine (WAE) provides the necessary intelligence to optimize network resources and make informed decisions dynamically, helping to ensure a consistent, high-quality customer experience.
This white paper describes SR and the Cisco WAE and highlights how they work together to deliver an intelligent, dynamic, highly optimized network.

A Literature Survey on Resource Management Techniques, Issues and Challenges ...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Cloud computing is a large scale distributed computing which provides on demand services for
clients. Cloud Clients use web browsers, mobile apps, thin clients, or terminal emulators to request and
control their cloud resources at any time and anywhere through the network. As many companies are
shifting their data to cloud and as many people are being aware of the advantages of storing data to cloud,
there is increasing number of cloud computing infrastructure and large amount of data which lead to the
complexity management for cloud providers. We surveyed the state-of-the-art resource management
techniques for IaaS (infrastructure as a service) in cloud computing. Then we put forward different major
issues in the deployment of the cloud infrastructure in order to avoid poor service delivery in cloud
computing.
Affinity based virtual machine migration (AVM) approach for effective placeme...IRJET Journal
This document discusses an affinity-based virtual machine migration (AVM) approach to optimize VM placement in cloud environments. The AVM approach uses a genetic algorithm to group VMs based on affinity metrics like traffic rate and communication cost, with the goal of reducing communication cost. It introduces non-randomness to the initial population to reduce search space and time. The algorithm considers network topology and aims to minimize the number of networking devices between VMs to reduce communication cost and traffic rate. Simulation results show the AVM approach reduces communication cost by 15% and execution time compared to existing genetic algorithms.
This document discusses automation of next generation networks (NGNs) to deliver multicast services. It covers planning issues for deploying multicast across inter-domain networks, including using path computation elements (PCEs) and hierarchical PCEs. Extensions to RSVP signaling are presented as a solution for point-to-multipoint transport across domains. The use of PCEs can offload complex path computations and consider constraints to efficiently deliver services using multicast trees.
A telecommunications network connects terminals, links, and nodes to enable telecommunication between users. It uses addresses to route messages or connections to the correct recipients. A telecommunications network consists of terminals, processors, channels, computers, and control software that work together to transmit and receive data.
Segment routing is a network technology focused on addressing the pain points of existing IP and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks in terms of simplicity, scale, and ease of operation. It’s a foundation for application engineered routing because it prepares the networks for new business models where applications can direct network behavior.
Segment routing seeks the right balance between distributed intelligence and centralized optimization and programming. It was built for the software-defined networking (SDN) era.
Segment routing enables enhanced packet forwarding behavior. It enables a network to transport unicast packets through a specific forwarding path, other than the normal shortest path that a packet usually takes. This capability benefits many use cases, and you can build those specific paths based on application requirements.
Segment routing uses the source routing paradigm. A node, usually a router but it can also be a switch, a trusted server, or a virtual forwarder running on a hypervisor, steers a packet through an ordered list of instructions, called segments. A segment can represent any instruction, topological or service-based. A segment can have a local semantic to a segment-routing node or global within a segment-routing network. Segment routing allows you to enforce a flow through any topological path and service chain while maintaining per-flow state only at the ingress node to the segment-routing network. To be aligned with modern IP networks, segment routing supports equal-cost multipath (ECMP) by design, and the forwarding within a segment-routing network uses all possible paths, when desired.

It also talks about how combining Avaya Fabric Connect with open-source cloud orchestration capabilities (that are being defined by OpenStack) can enable a graceful migration to the Software-Defined Data Center.
Determine the required delivery characteristics of a packet stream and how a Traffic Management (TM) module can offload compute-intensive tasks. Hear more about the latest innovations in both DPI & TM solutions.
This document provides an overview of cloud computing. It defines cloud computing, describes its key characteristics including on-demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, and rapid elasticity. It also discusses cloud service models of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). Additionally, it covers cloud architecture, security concerns in cloud computing, and the future of Network as a Service (NaaS).
A CLASS-BASED ADAPTIVE QOS CONTROL SCHEME ADOPTING OPTIMIZATION TECHNIQUE OVE...IJCNCJournal
This work investigates the QoS provisioning of various traffic classes on an SDN-enabled network. We
propose and implement the class-based adaptive QoS control scheme on SDN-enabled network for various
traffic classes, namely VoIP, Video Streaming and File Transfer. The effectiveness of our proposed scheme
is validated by simulation using Mininet and Ryu controller. The procedure to create the simulation
platform and all details relevant to all software used are described step-by-step in detail. The main
performance evaluation metric is the Maximum Number of Traffic Flows admittable with QoS while
Average Throughput, Latency, Jitter, and Packet Loss Rate are maintained at the comparable level of the
existing work in the literature called JMABC [11]. Our simulation results are illustrated with 95%
confidence interval. According to the simulation results, it is obvious that our proposed class-based
adaptive QoS control scheme adopting the optimization technique significantly outperforms the existing
similar QoS provision scheme in terms of the maximum number of the high priority traffic flows (VoIP)
admittable with QoS while the other evaluation metrics are maintained at the same level.
