Education

GENI Cinema

This demo shows how SDN can be used to implement a live video streaming service for streaming and switching between classroom lectures.

Video streaming over the Internet, be it static or live streaming, is rapidly increasing in popularity. Many video streaming services exist to serve a variety of needs, such as video conferencing, entertainment, education, and the broadcast of live events. These services rely heavily on the server application to adapt to increasing and decreasing demand for a particular video resource. Furthermore, they require the reallocation of resources and the restart of the stream when a client stops, starts, and/or switches to a different stream. SDN and specifically OpenFlow can be creatively used to reallocate some of these tasks to the network and link layers.

Our goal is to provide a scalable service for GENI using OpenFlow that supports the broadcast of live video streams from an arbitrary number of video-producers to an arbitrary number of video-consumers, where video- consumers can change “channels” without disrupting their existing stream and without affecting the load on a particular video stream source.

SDN-based Flow Scheduling in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

This demo shows a working prototype of a flow scheduling system in heterogeneous wireless networks.

In this paper, we will show how to exploit SDN to monitor flow statistics in a heterogeneous wireless network environment and how to enforce flow scheduling decisions through SDN. Heterogeneous wireless has been more and more common recently. However, these networks are utilized separately currently. This works try to optimize the overall utilization of these networks through SDN.

Distributed Iceberg detection using OpenFlow

Shakedown Experimentation on Scalable, Agile, Robust, and Secure Multi-Domain Software Defined Networks. Demo shows Software-Defined-Networking (SDN) based traffic measurements and inference paradigm for detecting global icebergs and distributed anomalies.

Accurate and timely traffic matrix (TM) measurements provide essential inputs for today’s various network operations. In this demo, we evaluate our traffic measurement paradigm in an OpenFlow-based networks with multiple SDN switches. Our framework will collaboratively use the distributed measurement resources and employ iSTAMP on multiple OpenFlow switches to detect distributed iceberg.

Participants:

ToMaTo on CloudLab

This demo shows the ToMaTo network testbed running on CloudLab infrastructure.

The ToMaTo ( http://tomato-lab.org/) is a network testbed which enables researchers to run their experiment on a specifically designed virtual networking topologies. The ToMaTo consists of a backend which controls multiple ToMaTo hosts and a front-end which allows users to edit and manage their experiment from their browser.

ToMaTo hosts provide virtualization technology and a complete toolset for more advanced experiments. The hosts run ToMaTo software package on existing operating system but installing the software needs bare metal machines and cannot be run in a virtualized environment.

Therefore, CloudLab which provides bare metal machines is suitable for running and scaling ToMaTo hosts infrastructure. The demo will show how ToMaTo hosts are provisioned on demand and runs on CloudLab infrastructure.

Participants:

ARRCN Self-Organized Cloud Platform

This demo shows a working prototype of the cloud orchestration platform with VNF use-case demonstration.

Attendees interested in cloud computing, DC, NFV, SND, network visualization and OpenStack should see this demo.

The Self-organizing cloud platform (SOC) to deploy virtual networks in DC is presented. The platform supports both IaaS mode and PaaS mode. SOC platform uses some components of OpenStack (Nova, Cinder, Keystone, Rabbit Message Queue) in combination with the original specialized components: OpenFlow controller, orchestrator, unified scheduler for consistent resource allocation, graphical user interface (GUI) for network definition, an extensive “sensor” system for physical resources monitoring and management, and modified OpenStack component Neutron.

SOC cloud platform considered in this demo allows us to deploy both manageable and non-manageable virtual networks in the data center. The possibility of virtual resources migration, consistent scheduling and management of computing resources allows one to ensure a high load of physical resources and guaranteed SLA compliance for the network as a whole. A request for virtual network creation can be defined either by means of the network description language or by means of a GUI.

Participants:

ARRCN S RUNOS Controll

This demo shows a working prototype highspeed SDN controller.

Attendees interested in SDN networks, SDN applications, Distributed systems should see this demo.
