| | 53 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Denial of Service (DoS) attacks disable network services for legitimate users. As a result of growing dependence on the Internet by both the general public and service providers, the availability of Internet services has become a concern. While DoS attacks cause inconvenience for users, and revenue loss for service providers; their effects on critical infrastructures like the smart grid and public utilities could be catastrophic. For example, an attack on a smart grid system can cause cascaded power failures and lead to a major blackout. Researchers have proposed approaches for detecting these attacks in the past decade. Anomaly based DoS detection is the most common. The detector uses network traffic statistics; such as the entropy of incoming packet header fields (e.g. source IP addresses or protocol type). It calculates the observed statistical feature and triggers an alarm if an extreme deviation occurs. Entropy features are common in recent DDoS detection publications. They are also one of the most effective features for detecting these attacks. However, intrusion detection systems (IDS) using entropy based detection approaches can be a victim of spoofing attacks. An attacker can sniff the network and calculate background traffic entropy before a (D)DoS attack starts. They can then spoof attack packets to keep the entropy value in the expected range during the attack. This paper explains the vulnerability of entropy based network monitoring systems. We present a proof of concept entropy spoofing attack and show that by exploiting this vulnerability, the attacker can avoid detection or degrade detection performance to an unacceptable level. |

| | 66 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Empirical evaluations to study network performance, whether in a laboratory setting or on GENI testbeds, rely heavily on measurement-based modeling of round trip times (RTTs) to emulate realistic end-to-end delays of local and metropolitan area networks. For generating realistic traffic, we studied several models to emulate RTTs. In this paper, we performed experiments on real testbeds using synthetic TCP traffic generated from measurement data from a large university campus. As a result of our study, we present the Discrete- Approximation model for RTT (DA-RTT) emulation. Using three different metrics for performance evaluation, which include queue length at routers, connection response times, and connection durations, we demonstrate that the simple DA-RTT model closely represents the per-connection RTTs in the original traffic. While these experiments were performed in our laboratory, and not using GENI infrastructure, we present this as a possible model for adoption on GENI testbeds to emulate Round Trip Time Distributions for GENI experiments. |

| | 79 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Deploying and controlling experiments running on a distributed set of resources is a challenging task. Software developers often spend a significant amount of time dealing with the complexities associated with resource configuration and management in these environments. Experiment control systems are designed to automate the process, and to ultimately help developers cope with the common problems that arise during the design, implementation, and evaluation of distributed systems. However, many of the existing control systems were designed with specific computing environments in mind, and thus do not provide support for heterogeneous resources in different testbeds. In this paper, we explore the functionality of Gush, an experiment control system, and discuss how it supports execution on three of the four GENI control frameworks. |

| | 92 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Distributed applications have become a core component of the Internet's infrastructure. However, many undergraduate curriculums, especially at small colleges, do not offer courses that focus on the design and implementation of distributed systems. The courses that are offered address the theoretical aspects of system design, but often fail to provide students with the opportunity to develop and evaluate distributed applications in real-world environments. As a result, undergraduate students are not as prepared as they should be for graduate study or careers in industry. This paper describes an undergraduate course in Distributed Systems that not only studies the key design principles of distributed systems, but also has a unique emphasis on giving students hands-on access to distributed systems through the use of shared computing testbeds, such as PlanetLab and GENI, and open-source technologies, such as Xen and Hadoop. Using these platforms, students can perform large-scale, distributed experimentation even at small colleges. |

| | 105 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Support for distributed application management in large-scale networked environments remains in its early stages. Although a number of solutions exist for subtasks of application deployment, monitoring, and maintenance in distributed environments, few tools provide a unified framework for application management. Many of the existing tools address the management needs of a single type of application or service that runs in a specific environment, and these tools are not adaptable enough to be used for other applications or platforms. To this end, we present the design and implementation of Plush, a fully configurable application management infrastructure designed to meet the general requirements of several different classes of distributed applications. Plush allows developers to specifically define the flow of control needed by their computations using application building blocks. Through an extensible resource management interface, Plush supports execution in a variety of environments, including both live deployment platforms and emulated clusters. Plush also uses relaxed synchronization primitives for improving fault tolerance and liveness in failure-prone environments. To gain an understanding of how Plush manages different classes of distributed applications, we take a closer look at specific applications and evaluate how Plush provides support for each. |

| | 131 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Modern science presents a number of challenges to the cyber-infrastructure supporting it: heterogeneity of the required computational resources, problems associated with storing, preserving and moving large quantities of information, a collaborative nature of scientific activities requiring shared access to resources, continuously growing requirements for computational power and network bandwidth, and, last, but not least, ease of use. In this position paper we explore a new approach to creating and growing such infrastructure based on the principles of federation, enabled by deep programmability of individual infrastructure elements: Software-Defined Infrastructure (SDI). We describe the evolution of the science infrastructure, open research problems and the concrete steps we are taking towards its realization by building a unique, widely distributed science facility in Russia based on SDI and GENI technologies. |

| | 144 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>IPv4 protocol, the famous 32-bit address, has been used in networks for many decades [1] and would not have sustained its usability without NAT. IPv6 protocol with its 128-bit address, provides slight routing information [2]. In this paper, we present ESPM, Embedding Switch ID, Port number and MAC Address within IPv6 protocol and SDN technology, imposing a device connectivity hierarchy upon the address space. We amend the IPv6 global addressing scheme for hosts to include their MAC address as well as the switch ID and Switch port number that they are connected to. This scheme encodes information that would ordinarily require a lookup or query packets(ARP) and decrease CAM table entries on the switch by forwarding the packets using the ESPM algorithm. After processing ESPM algorithm to check for OF controller ID, OF switch ID, and the port ID, the amount of total packets transferred on the network to fulfill an ICMP request-reply process decreased by 28.1% in 1-switch-2 hosts. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of such an addressing scheme, we use POF controller and POF switch [3] to emulate ESPM implementation and then measure the impact on the number of network management packets transferred between hosts during connectivity tests. |

| | 157 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A global federation of experimental facilities in computer networking is being built on the basis of a thin waist, the Slice-based Federation Architecture (SFA), for managing testbed resources in a secure and efficient way. Its success will depend on the existence of tools that allow testbeds to expose their local resources and users to browse and select the resources most appropriate for their experiments. This paper presents two such tools. First, SFAWrap, which makes it relatively easy for a testbed owner to provide an SFA interface for their testbed. Second, MySlice, a tool that allows experimenters to browse and reserve testbed resources via SFA, and that is extensible through a system of plug-ins. Together, these tools should lower the barriers to entry for testbed owners who wish to join the global federation. |

| | 183 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Internet has grown from its inception as a special-purpose internetwork into a general multi-purpose world-wide facility enabling education, commerce, governance, and societal communication, all in the space of a few decades. Over this time, and accelerating in the last decade or so, increasing demands and a growing variety of use cases are posing new challenges on the architecture prompting re-thinking and re-architecting of the network. One thread of research in such architectural considerations involves the issue of choice. The lack of alternative network services brings little economic incentive for the network service providers to make investments to deploy new technologies and improve the quality of their network services. In addition, most user flows goes through several providers, thus there is no effective mechanism in the current Internet to provide feedback to users about which provider is the cause of the performance problems they experience. One solution to these problems is to create a more competitive open market where providers can advertise their network services, and users can choose their desired set of network services to satisfy their needs. In this solution, the users have the option to choose another service if they are not satisfied. However, even in this solution, the root cause of the performance problems still can not be found and it brings us to the lack of a robust feedback capability. In this work, we investigate a solution to this fundamental missing piece of the In- ternet, the measurement and verification capability of the network services offered in the Internet, that indirectly pushes more responsibility to the network providers to fulfill their requirements for high quality services. Our work, while rooted in standard expectations of economic theory, is not in economics itself. Rather, it is in defining, designing, and realizing architectural entities and interactions in technical terms that can realize verification services essential to enabling such economic interactions. Our work is threefold; after giving a literature overview of the research on future Internet and Internet measurement, we first propose an architecture that defines the roles, interactions and design choices to enable a Choice-Based Verification Service. We then describe the results and analysis of a series of tests, which start with our work on measurement frameworks in wired and wireless environments and continue with the simulation, the mechanism introduced and the actual prototype of this work deployed into a real system, the GENI meso-scale testbed. Finally, we investigate and validate whether such informed choices with verification service actually lead to better overall results. We use energy-efficiency as a practical and useful domain for a case study and show the simulation results, which greatly increase the appeal of this work as applicable real-world network services. |

Our work leverages a number of unique architectural solutions (distributed architecture, declarative resource specifications, unique approach to slice instantiation) which is applicable to a wider set of problems related to autonomic co-scheduling and provisioning of heterogeneous networked resources. We discuss the architecture, the resource description mechanisms and some of the algorithms used to enable our system. We conclude with an analysis of a real experiment at allocating resources from multiple providers across a very wide geographic area (spanning Massachusetts, Illinois and North Carolina) to create a single private Layer 2 network connecting virtual machines on the campus of Duke University to a sensor testbed at University of Massachusetts, Amherst. |

| | 235 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>NSF's GENI program seeks to enable experiments that run within virtual network topologies built-to-order from testbed infrastructure offered by multiple providers (domains). GENI is often viewed as a network testbed integration effort, but behind it is an ambitious vision for multi-domain infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). This paper presents ExoGENI, a new GENI testbed that links GENI to two advances in virtual infrastructure services outside of GENI: open cloud computing (OpenStack) and dynamic circuit fabrics. ExoGENI orchestrates a federation of independent cloud sites and circuit providers through their native IaaS interfaces, and links them to other GENI tools and resources. The ExoGENI deployment consists of cloud site ``racks'' on host campuses within the US, linked with national research networks and other circuit networks through programmable exchange points. The ExoGENI sites and control software are enabled for software-defined networking using OpenFlow. ExoGENI offers a powerful unified hosting platform for deeply networked, multi-domain, multi-site cloud applications. We intend that ExoGENI will seed a larger, evolving platform linking other third-party cloud sites, transport networks, and other infrastructure services, and that it will enable real-world deployment of innovative distributed services and new visions of a Future Internet. |

| | 248 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A modern virtualized data center is highly multifarious environment shared among hundreds of co-located tenants hosting heterogeneous applications. The tenants' virtual machines generate a subset of elephants or mice flows (different in terms of rate, size, duration, and burstiness) based on the type of application they are running. Virtual traffic generated from the tenant's virtual machines traverses the underlay physical fabric in aggregate because of different encapsulation techniques (VXLAN, NVGRE, and STT for example) employed in data center networks thus obfuscating the virtual traffic characteristics. Existing approaches to monitor and/or identify elephant flows either have limited or no visibility into virtual traffic or are associated with high monitoring overhead making it hard to precisely detect and properly engineer elephant flows on the underlay fabric. In this paper, we present VirtMonE, a lightweight detection mechanism aimed at precisely detecting egress elephant flows at Open vSwitch while providing visibility into virtual traffic with least measurement and monitoring overhead at the edge. We conduct simulations on a small GENI testbed to evaluate the performance of the proposed solution for a software-defined multi-tenant virtual network. Our proposed solution is demonstrated to precisely detect the elephant flows from different tenants at the edge, provide visibility into virtual traffic and mitigate the network overhead associated with detection, thus improving the overall performance of the data centre. |

| | 274 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We describe the GENI Experiment Engine, a Distributed-Platform-as-a-Service facility designed to be implemented on a distributed testbed or infrastructure. The GEE is intended to provide rapid and convenient access to a distributed infrastructure for simple, easy-to-configure experiments and applications. Specifically, the design goal of the GEE is to permit experimenters and application writers to: (a) allocate a GEE slicelet; (b) deploy a simple experiment or application; (c) run the experiment; (d) collect the results; and (e) tear down the experiment, starting from scratch, within five minutes. The GEE consists of four cooperating services over the GENI infrastructure, which together with pre-allocated slicelets and a pre-allocated network offers a complete, ready to use, sliceable platform over the GENI Infrastructure. |

| | 287 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we argue that federation of cloud systems requires a standard API for users to create, manage, and destroy virtual objects, and a standard naming scheme for virtual objects. We introduce an existing API for this purpose, the Slice-Based Federation Architecture, and demonstrate that it can be implemented on a number of existing cloud management systems. We introduce a simple naming scheme for virtual objects, and discuss its implementation. |

| | 300 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>IEEE 802.11-based wireless local area networks, referred to as WiFi, have been globally deployed and the vast majority of the mobile devices are currently WiFi-enabled. While WiFi has been proposed for multimedia content distribution, its lack of adequate support for multicast services hinders its ability to provide multimedia content distribution to a large number of devices. In earlier work, we proposed a dynamic scheme called AMuSe that selects a subset of the multicast receivers as feedback nodes. The feedback nodes periodically send information about channel quality to the multicast sender and the sender in turn can optimize multicast service quality, e.g., by dynamically adjusting transmission bit-rate. In this paper, we discuss several experimental results for the performance evaluation of AMuSe. Our experiments use more than 250 nodes placed in a grid topology in the ORBIT testbed. We consider different experimental scenarios: with and without the presence of external noise. Our focus is on studying the performance of WiFi nodes in WiFi multicast and establishing the conditions that make AMuSe an attractive scheme for feedback in WiFi multicast. |

| | 313 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Future Internet and distributed cloud (FIDC) testbeds are rapidly becoming important research and educational resoures worldwide. While FIDC testbeds may be built on diverse technologies, they share the primary capabilities of slicing (virtualized end-to-end configurations of computing, networking, and storage resources) and deep programmability (experimenter programmability of all resources from low level hardware to virtualized components). FIDC testbeds often achieve their deep programmability through software defined networking (SDN) capabilities, which researchers employ both to construct per-application and per-experiment virtual networks, and to intelligently steer traffic throughout the virtual network/cloud environment. |

| | 326 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GENI, the Global Environment for Networking Innovation, is a distributed virtual laboratory for transformative, at-scale experiments in network science, services, and security. Designed in response to concerns over Internet ossification, GENI is enabling a wide variety of experiments in a range of areas, including clean-slate networking, protocol design and evaluation, distributed service offerings, social network integration, content management, and in-network service deployment. Recently, GENI has been leading an effort to explore the potential of its underlying technologies, SDN and GENI racks, in support of university campus network management and applications. With the concurrent deployment of these technologies on regional and national R&E backbones, this will result in a revolutionary new national-scale distributed architecture, bringing to the entire network the shared, deeply programmable environment that the cloud has brought to the datacenter. This deeply programmable environment will support the GENI research mission and as well as enabling research in a wide variety of application areas. |

| | 352 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GENI, the Global Environment for Networking Innovation, is a distributed virtual laboratory for research in networking and distributed systems, with applications in domain science. The main components of GENI include OpenFlow-enabled software defined networking (SDN) resources deployed on over 40 university campuses across the U.S. These resources include both switches and GENI Racks (SDN capable compute clusters with OpenFlow switches for internal and external communications). GENI Racks are currently installed on dozens of university campuses and within R&E network backbones. Also available is a diverse group of programmable computing and wireless networking resources. Researchers access this collection of resources via the key GENI techniques of deep programmability and slicing. Collectively, these resources and methods enable GENI to support a wide variety of research efforts. |

| | 365 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Providing remote access and collaboration technologies to advanced manufacturing communities are exciting prospects due to the growth of the global marketplace and the pervasiveness of high-speed networks. There is a need to develop reliable protocols that extend beyond the current capabilities of typical TCP/IP connections that do not provide sufficient redundancy for controlling remote processes in manufacturing facilities. In addition, there is a need to suitably configure remote access protocol configurations that deliver satisfactory user experience amongst distributed collaborators synchronously working on manufacturing design workflows using cloud-hosted simulation software. In this paper, we present two case studies and early results that leverage the GENI Future Internet infrastructure for experimentation and development of new services that address such advanced manufacturing needs. Both case studies pivot around the idea of removing the need for users to have physical access to manufacturing resources and thus enable remote access to cloud-hosted services that use Future Internet capabilities for cost/time savings and improved convenience. |

| | 378 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The 802.16e standard for broadband wireless access mandates the presence of QoS classes, but does not specify guidelines for the scheduler implementation or mechanisms to ensure air time fairness. Our study demonstrates the feasibility of controlling downlink airtime fairness for slices while running above a proprietary WiMAX basestation (BS) scheduler. We design and implement a virtualized infrastructure that allows users to obtain at least an allocated percentage of BS resources in the presence of saturation and link degradation. Using Kernel virtual machines for creating slices and Click modular router for implementing the virtual network traffic shaping engine we show that it is possible to adaptively control slice usage for downlink traffic on a WiMAX Basestation. The fairness index and coupling coefficient show an improvement of up to 42%, and 73% with preliminary indoor walking mobility experiments. Outdoor vehicular measurements show an improvement of up to 27%, and 70\\\\ with the fairness index and coupling coefficient respectively |

| | 391 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Providing air-time guarantees across a group of clients forms a fundamental building block in sharing an access point (AP) across different virtual network providers. Though this problem has a relatively simple solution for downlink group scheduling through traffic engineering at the AP, solving this problem for uplink (UL) traffic presents a challenge for fair sharing of wireless hotspots. Among other issues, the mechanism for uplink traffic control has to scale across a large user base, and provide flexible operation irrespective of the client channel conditions and network loads. In this study, we propose the SplitAP architecture that address the problem of sharing uplink airtime across groups of users by extending the idea of network virtualization. Our architecture allows us to deploy different algorithms for enforcing UL airtime fairness across client groups. In this study, we will highlight the design features of the SplitAP architecture, and present results from evaluation on a prototype deployed with: (1) LPFC and (2) LPFC+, two algorithms for controlling UL group fairness. Performance comparisons on the ORBIT testbed show that the proposed algorithms are capable of providing group air-time fairness across wireless clients irrespective of the network volume, and traffic type. The algorithms show up to 40% improvement with a modified Jain fairness index. |

| | 404 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents the architecture and performance evaluation of a virtualized wide-area 4̈G ̈cellular wireless network. Specifically, it addresses the challenges of virtualization of resources in a cellular base station to enable shared use by multiple independent slice users (experimenters or mobile virtual network operators), each with possibly distinct flow types and network layer protocols. The proposed virtual basestation architecture is based on an external substrate which uses a layer-2 switched datapath, and an arbitrated control path to the WiMAX basestation. The framework implements virtualization of base station's radio resources to achieve isolation between multiple virtual networks. An algorithm for weighted fair sharing among multiple slices based on an airtime fairness metric has been implemented for the first release. Preliminary experimental results from the virtual basestation prototype are given, demonstrating mobile network performance, isolation across slices with different flow types, and custom flow scheduling capabilities. |

| | 417 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Systems virtualization offers convenient means for sharing networking infrastructure while improving its utilization. This study addresses the challenges of virtualizing a commercial off-the-shelf 4G mobileWiMAX basestation. We highlight additions and modifications needed in theWiMAX network architecture for supporting multiple simultaneous virtual basestations on a single physical basestation. The most prominent features provided by the proposed virtual basestation framework include the capability to perform all frame switching at layer-2, and control mechanisms to provide isolation across slices needed to ensure experiment repeatability. By prototyping on a commercial WiMAX radio, this paper shows the usage of the virtual basestation system for housing mobile virtual network operators and testbeds alike. A use case is shown where the virtual basestation design is used to evaluate mobile handoff schemes. Another usage case is shown for optimizing a video delivery on the edge. The video delivery use case is used to show performance improvements of up to 5dB in the PSNR. Evaluation of prototype shows a significant improvement in the slice isolation, with aggregate throughput improvements of up to 192% achievable through fair resource allocation. |

| | 430 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A scalable approach to building large scale experimentation testbeds involves multiplexing the system resources for better utilization. Virtualization provides a convenient means of sharing testbed resources among experimenters. The degree of programmability and isolation achieved with such a setup is largely dependent on the type of technology used for virtualization. We consider OpenVZ and User Mode Linux (UML) for virtualization of the ORBIT wireless testbed and evaluate their relative merit. Our results show that OpenVZ, an operating system level virtualization mechanism significantly outperforms UML in terms of system overheads and performance isolation. We discuss both qualitative and quantitative performance features which could serve as guidelines for selection of a virtualization scheme for similar testbeds. |

| | 443 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Content Delivery over the Internet continues to be a challenge as there is no centralized control system [1]. Software Defined Networking has paved the way to provide this control of network traffic. OpenFlow is now being standardized as part of the Open Networking Foundation, and Software Defined Exchange provides a framework to use OpenFlow for multidomain routing. Prototype deployments of Software Defined Exchanges have recently come into existence as a platform for Future Internet architecture to eliminate the need for core routing technology used in today's Internet. In this paper, we look at how application delivery, in particular, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) and Nowcasting take advantage of Software Defined Exchange. We compare unsophisticated controllers to more sophisticated ones which we call a ” load balancer” and find that implementing a good reactive controller for inter-domain routing can result in better network utilization and better application performance. |

| | 456 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Information Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm promises deconstraining the current Internet architecture by allowing clients to directly address the desired content throughout the network. For the Internet this is a further evolutionary step from the idea of a narrow-waist core that only transports requests/replies to an intelligent architecture searching for and providing content. Multi-sourcing, which is one of the core ideas of ICN, constitutes a serious challenge for prevalent Internet applications such as video streaming. In this work we show how prominent adaptive video streaming protocols can benefit from the load balancing capabilities that are native to ICN. We examine the performance of content retrieval in ICN over Ethernet in a real-world testbed showing the impact of multi-sourcing and content size variation on the content transfer times. |

| | 469 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud Computing is the new trend in sharing resources, sharing and managing data and performing computations on a shared resource via the Internet. However, with the constant increase in demand, these resources are insufficient. So users often use another network in conjunction with the current one. All these networks accomplish the goal of providing the user with a virtual or physical machine. However, to achieve the result, virtual machine users have to maintain multitude credentials and follow a different process for each network. In this thesis, we focus on SAGEFed, a product that enables a user to use the same credentials and commands to reserve the resources on two different federated clouds, i.e., SAVI and GENI. As a part of SAGEFed, the user can acquire or reserve resources on the clouds with the same API. The same service also manages the credentials, so they do not have to manage different credentials while acquiring resources. Furthermore, SAGEFed demonstrates that any cloud that has some form of client tool can be easily integrated. |

| | 508 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Researchers and educators in computer science and other domains are increasingly turning to distributed test beds that offer access to a variety of resources, including networking, computation, storage, sensing, and actuation. The provisioning of resources from their owners to interested experimenters requires establishing sufficient mutual trust between these parties. Building such trust directly between researchers and resource owners will not scale as the number of experimenters and resource owners grows. The NSF GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovation) project has focused on establishing scalable mechanisms for maintaining such trust based on common approaches for authentication, authorization and accountability. Such trust reflects the actual trust relationships and agreements among humans or real-world organizations. We describe here GENI's approaches for federated trust based on mutually trusted authorities, and implemented via cryptographically signed credentials and shared policies. |

| | 521 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traffic from mobile wireless networks has been growing at a fast pace in recent years and is expected to surpass wired traffic very soon. Service providers face significant challenges at such scales including providing seamless mobility, efficient data delivery, security, and provisioning capacity at the wireless edge. In the Mobility First project, we have been exploring clean slate enhancements to the network protocols that can inherently provide support for at-scale mobility and trustworthiness in the Internet. An extensible data plane using pluggable compute-layer services is a key component of this architecture. We believe these extensions can be used to implement in-network services to enhance mobile end-user experience by either off-loading work and/or traffic from mobile devices, or by enabling en-route service-adaptation through context-awareness (e.g., Knowing contemporary access bandwidth). In this work we present details of the architectural support for in-network services within Mobility First, and propose protocol and service-API extensions to flexibly address these pluggable services from end-points. As a demonstrative example, we implement an in network service that does rate adaptation when delivering video streams to mobile devices that experience variable connection quality. We present details of our deployment and evaluation of the non-IP protocols along with compute-layer extensions on the GENI test bed, where we used a set of programmable nodes across 7 distributed sites to configure a Mobility First network with hosts, routers, and in-network compute services. |

| | 534 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Test beds such as GENI provide an ideal environment for experimenting with future internet architectures such as Choice Net. Unlike the narrow waist of the current Internet (IP), Choice Net encourages alternatives and competition at the network layer via an economic plane that allows users to choose and purchase precisely the services they need. In this paper we describe our experiences implementing the Choice Net architecture on GENI. Some features of GENI, such as the ability to program the network layer, to leverage existing protocols and software, to run real applications generating realistic traffic, and the ability to perform long-running experiments made GENI an ideal platform for Choice Net experimentation. However, we found that GENI currently lacks the tools needed to make it easy to use these features. To address this issue, we designed and implemented a GENI Experimenter Tool specifically designed and tailored to perform tasks commonly needed by experimenters such as dynamically configuring nodes, loading and compiling node-specific code, executing Click modules, running commands on sets of nodes, accessing the local file system on nodes, and dynamically logging into nodes. |

| | 547 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>When playing online games, the user experience is often dictated by the performance of the network. To deliver the best possible gaming experience, game developers often find themselves developing work-arounds that try to mask the lack of control they have over of the existing TCP/IP Internet. ChoiceNet, an emerging future Internet architecture, attempts to give applications enhanced control (choice) over the service they receive from the network. In particular, ChoiceNet supports an economic plane in which applications can purchase services from any provider. Because providers are compensated, they are motivated to offer a variety of innovative, excellent services, enabling applications to select the service best suited for its needs. Instead of coding work-arounds, game developers can obtain precisely the network service that is needed to optimize the game experience. In this paper, we describe the emerging ChoiceNet archi- tecture and show how computer games can benefit from the alternatives enabled by ChoiceNet. To demonstrate the benefits of the ChoiceNet architecture, we implemented a first person shooter game that uses ChoiceNet to ” purchase” and then send data over the purchased path resulting in substantially lower latency than the default path. We describe the ChoiceNet services used to implement the game, and we present performance results that show a significant reduction in latency. We also show how ChoiceNet can be used to purchase reliable (non-lossy) communication paths that improve the user's experience. |

The next frontier for these user communities will be to transition `traditional desktops' that have dedicated hardware and software configurations into `virtual desktop clouds' that are accessible via thin-clients. In this paper, we describe an intelligent resource placement framework for thin-client based virtual desktops. The framework leverages principles of softwaredefined networking and features a `unified resource broker' that uses special `marker packets' for: (a) ” route setup” when handling non-IP traffic between thin-client sites and data centers, (b) ” path selection” and ” load balancing” of virtual desktop flows to improve performance of interactive applications and video playback, and to cope with faults such as link-failures or Denialof-Service cyber-attacks. In addition, we detail our framework implementation within a virtual desktop cloud (VDC) setup in a multi-domain Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) Future Internet testbed spanning backbone and access networks. We present empirical results from our experimentation that leverages OpenFlow programmable networking, as well as perfSONAR instrumentation-and-measurement capabilities for validating our framework in GENI under realistic settings. Our results demonstrate the importance of scheduling regulated measurements that can be used for intelligent resource placement decisions. Our results also show the feasibility and benefits of using OpenFlow controller applications for path selection and load balancing between thin-client sites and data centers in VDCs. |

It can enable students to architect scalable infrastructures and develop web-service based applications utilizing distributed systems. In this paper, we describe our efforts, experiences and findings in the development of laboratory exercises that utilize GENI infrastructure in a cloud computing course offered at University of Missouri in Fall 2013. Three sets of laboratory exercises were developed and administered for 30 undergraduate/graduate students to help them gain skills in computer and network virtualization, and also to prepare them for distributed system programming projects. We found that the GENI infrastructure provides unique capabilities for student training, and combining it with lab exercises that use public clouds such as Amazon Web Services can provide an overall rich set of hands-on learning opportunities. |

| | 586 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Today's Internet which provides communication channels with best-effort end-to-end performance is rapidly evolving into an autonomic global computing platform. Achieving autonomicity in the Future Internet will require a performance architecture that (a) allows users to request and own 'slices' of geographically-distributed host and network resources, (b) measures and monitors end-to-end host and network status, (c) enables analysis of the measurements within expert systems, and (d) provides performance intelligence in a timely manner for application adaptations to improve performance and scalability. We de- scribe the requirements and design of one such F̈uture Internet performance architecture ̈(FIPA), and present our reference implementation of FIPA called 'OnTimeMeasure.' OnTimeMeasure comprises of several measurement-related services that can interact with each other and with existing measurement frameworks to enable performance intelligence. We also explain our OnTimeMea- sure deployment in the global environment for network innovations (GENI) infrastructure collaborative research initiative to build a sliceable Future Internet. Further, we present an application- adaptation case study in GENI that uses OnTimeMeasure-enabled performance intelligence in the context of dynamic resource allocation within thin-client based virtual desktop clouds. We show how a virtual desktop cloud provider in the Future Internet can use the performance intelligence to increase cloud scalability, while simultaneously delivering satisfactory user quality-of-experience. |

| | 599 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>With gigabit networking becoming economically feasible and widely installed at homes, there are new opportunities to revisit in-home, personalized telehealth services. In this paper, we describe a novel telehealth eldercare service that we developed viz., ” PhysicalTherapy-as-a-Service” (PTaaS) that connects a remote physical therapist at a clinic to a senior at home. The service leverages a high-speed, low-latency network connection through an interactive interface built on top of Microsoft Kinect motion sensing capabilities. The interface that is built using user-centered design principles for wellness coaching exercises is essentially a 'Synchronous Big Data' application due to its: (i) high data-in-motion velocity (i.e., peak data rate is ≈400 Mbps), (ii) considerable variety (i.e., measurements include 3D sensing, network health, user opinion surveys and video clips of RGB, skeletal and depth data), and (iii) large volume (i.e., several GB of measurement data for a simple exercise activity). The successful PTaaS delivery through this interface is dependent on the veracity analytics needed for correlation of the real-time Big Data streams within a session, in order to assess exercise balance of the senior without any bias due to network quality effects. Our experiments with PTaaS in an actual testbed involving senior homes in Kansas City with Google Fiber connections and our university clinic demonstrate the network configuration and time synchronization related challenges in order to perform online analytics. Our findings provide insights on how to: (a) enable suitable resource calibration and perform network troubleshooting for high user experience for both the therapist and the senior, and (b) realize a Big Data architecture for PTaaS and other similar personalized healthcare services to be remotely delivered at a large-scale in a reliable, secure and cost-effective manner. |

| | 612 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>One of the significant challenges for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) hosting ” virtual desktop cloud” (VDC) infrastructures is to deliver a satisfactory quality of experience (QoE) to the user. In order to maximize the user QoE without expensive resource overprovisioning, there is a need to design and verify resource allocation schemes for a comprehensive set of VDC configurations. In this paper, we present ” VDC-Analyst”, a novel tool that can capture critical quality metrics such as Net Utility and Service Response Time, which can be used to quantify VDC platform readiness. This tool allows CSPs, researchers and educators to design and verify various resource allocation schemes using both simulation and emulation in two modes: ” Run Simulation” and ” Run Experiment”, respectively. The Run Simulation mode allows users to test and visualize resource provisioning and placement schemes on a simulation framework. Run Experiment mode allows testing on a real software-defined network testbed using emulated virtual desktop application traffic to create a realistic environment. Results from using our tool demonstrate that a significant increase in perceived user QoE can be achieved by using a combination of the following techniques incorporated in the tool: (i) optimizing Net Utility through a ” Cost-Aware Utility-Maximal Resource Allocation Algorithm”, (ii) estimating values for Service Response Time using a ” Multi-stage Queuing Model”, and (iii) appropriate load balancing through software-defined networking adaptations in the VDC testbed. |

In this paper, we describe experiences from our research and development of virtual desktop cloud experiments in GENI. Our experimentation goal is to investigate and develop optimal resource allocation frameworks and performance bench- marking tools that can enable provisioning (i.e., resource sizing) and placement (i.e., resource mapping) of thin-client based virtual desktops at Internet-scale. We first motivate why virtual desktop cloud experiments cannot be done only at a table-top level, and why infrastructures such as GENI are essential. Next, we detail the methodology of our completed ” provisioning” experiments, and our work-in-progress ” placement” experiments in GENI that leverage multiple kinds of GENI resources such as aggregates, measurement services and experimenter workflow tools, as well as commercial software. Lastly, we present our vision on how our experiment slice setup and application development experiences, as well as outcomes can be leveraged in classroom labs, and 'living labs' that use GENI resources to foster training and wide- adoption of Future Internet applications. |

| | 664 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>File sharing applications in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have attracted more and more attention in recent years. The efficiency of file querying suffers from the distinctive properties of MANETs including node mobility and limited communication range and resource. An intuitive method to alleviate this problem is to create file replicas in the network. However, despite the efforts on file replication, no research has focused on the global optimal replica sharing with minimum average querying delay. Specifically, current file replication protocols in MANETs have two shortcomings. First, they lack a rule to allocate limited resource to different files in order to minimize the average querying delay. Second, they simply consider storage as resource for replicas, but neglect the fact that the file holders' frequency of meeting other nodes also plays an important role in determining file availability. A node having a higher meeting frequency with others provides higher availability to its files. In this paper, we introduce a new concept of resource for file replication, which considers both node storage and meeting frequency. We theoretically study the influence of resource allocation on the average querying delay and derive a resource allocation rule to minimize the average querying delay. We further propose a distributed file replication protocol that follows the rule. The trace-driven experiments on both the real-world GENI testbed and NS-2 show that our protocol can achieve shorter average querying delay at lower cost than current replication protocols, which justifies the correctness of our theoretical analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed protocol. |

| | 675 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we focus on distributed file search over a delay tolerant network (DTN) formed by mobile devices that exhibit the characteristics of social networks. Current file search methods in MANETs/DTNs are either content-based or contact-based. The former builds routing tables for node contents but is not resilient to high node mobility, while the latter exploits node contact patterns in the social networks but may lead to high latency. Recent research also reveal the importance of interests in realizing efficient file dissemination in DTNs. In this paper, we first analyze node interest and mobility from real traces, which confirms the shortcomings of a contact based method and show the importance of considering both content/interest and contact in file search. We then propose Cont2, a social-aware file search method which leverages both node social interests (content) and contact patterns to enhance search efficiency. First, considering people with common interests tend to share files and gather together, Cont2 virtually groups common-interest nodes into a community to direct file search. Second, considering human mobility follows a certain pattern, Cont2 exploits nodes that have high contact frequency with the queried content. Third, Cont2 also exploits active nodes that have more connections to others as a complementary approach to expedite file search. Trace-driven experimental on the real-world GENI test bed and NS-2 simulator show that Cont2 can significantly improve the search efficiency compared to current methods. |

| | 688 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Current P2P file sharing methods in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) can be classified into three groups: flooding-based, advertisement-based and social contact-based. The first two groups of methods can easily generate high overhead and low scalability, and the third group fails to consider the social interests (content) of mobile nodes, which otherwise can improve file searching efficiency. In this paper, we propose a P2P content-based file sharing system for MANETs. The system uses an interest extraction algorithm to derive a node's interests from its files for complex queries. For efficient file searching, it groups common-interest nodes that frequently meet with each other as communities. Further, it takes advantage of node mobility by designating stable nodes, which has frequent contact with community members, as community coordinators for intra-community searching, and highly-mobile nodes as community ambassadors for inter-community searching. An interest-oriented file searching scheme further enhances the file searching success rate. We first deployed our system on the real-world GENI Orbit testbed with a real trace and then conducted experiment on the ns2 simulator with both real trace and simulated disconnected and connected MANET scenario. The test results show that our system significantly lowers transmission cost and improves file searching success rate compared to current methods. |

| | 701 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper proposes a systematic procedure for experimentation of Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) on the ORBIT testbed. MANETs have attracted significant re- search interests in recent years. Most of routing or file sharing algorithms in MANETs were only evaluated by theoretical analysis or simulations because of the requirement of large scale networks. However, due to the distinctive properties of MANETs, such as mobility and decentralized structure, it has been non-trivial to deploy a real testbed for the verification. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) project sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) provides an exploratory environment for academic real-world experiments, such as the ORBIT testbed. A stable and repeatable procedure for experimentation on real testbeds is necessary and important to assure the validity of results. In this paper, a MANET routing algorithm, namely LORD, was tested on the ORBIT testbed, using the proposed procedure. Specifically, we first configure the wireless interface on each node to enable the communication between each pair of nodes. Then a set of methods are adopted to construct the MANETs scenario for test. The network status is monitored throughout the entire duration of experiments. Finally, the experiment results of LORD on the GENI ORBIT testbed are demonstrated. |

| | 714 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Typical routing algorithms use a single criterion, such as hop count or link weight, to calculate paths. As the requirement of flexible routing arises, there are circumstances where multiple criteria are needed for routing. Though there are proposed solutions to the multi-criteria optimal path selection problem for quality-of-service routing, they usually combine all criteria into a single path optimization metric a priori. However, this approach is not feasible in scenarios where the path consumers' weightings of criteria is not known at compute time. Such circumstances require finding all the Pareto-optimal paths, i.e., all the paths that are not dominated by other paths. In this paper, we present the algorithmic foundations for efficiently computing Pareto-optimal paths. We present ParetoBFS, a variant of a breadth-first search that uses branch-and-bound techniques to find all the Pareto-optimal paths while effectively limiting the potentially very large search space. We present several sampling techniques to further increase the speed of the search while degrading the quality of the results only marginally. Our simulation results show that existing multi-criteria combinatorial optimization approaches can only search a small fraction of all the Pareto-optimal paths while ParetoBFS can obtain the whole path set in shorter time. We also present results from an implementation of ParetoBFS on a software-defined network prototype. |

| | 727 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Deployment of innovative new networking services requires support by network providers. Since economic motivation plays an important role for network providers, it is critical that a network architecture intrinsically considers economic relationships. We present the design of a protocol that associates access to network services with economic contracts. We show how this protocol can be realized in fundamentally different ways, using out-of-band signaling and in-band signaling, based on two different prototype implementations. We present results that show the effectiveness of the proposed protocol and thus demonstrate a first step toward realizing an economy plane for the Internet. |

| | 753 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined networking (SDN) and Open Flow have been driving new security applications and services. However, even if some of these studies provide interesting visions of what can be achieved, they stop short of presenting realistic application scenarios and experimental results. In this paper, we discuss a novel attack detection approach that coordinates monitors distributed over a network and controllers centralized on an SDN Open Virtual Switch (OVS), selectively inspecting network packets on demand. With different scale of network views and information availability, these two elements collaboratively detect signature constituents of an attack. Therefore, this approach is able to quickly issue an alert against potential threats followed by careful verification for high accuracy, while balancing the workload on the OVS. We have applied this method for detection and mitigation of TCP SYN flood attacks on Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI). This realistic experimentation has provided us with insightful findings helpful toward a systematic methodology of SDN-supported attack detection and containment. |

| | 764 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networking (SDN) has the potential to enable novel security applications that support flexible, on-demand deployment of system elements. It can offer targeted forensic evidence collection and investigation of computer network attacks. Such unique capabilities are instrumental to network intrusion detection that is challenged by large volumes of data and complex network topologies. This paper presents an innovative approach that coordinates distributed network traffic Monitors and attack Correlators supported by Open Virtual Switches (OVS). The Monitors conduct anomaly detection and the Correlators perform deep packet inspection for attack signature recognition. These elements take advantage of complementary views and information availability on both the data and control planes. Moreover, they collaboratively look for network flooding attack signature constituents that possess different characteristics in the level of information abstraction. Therefore, this approach is able to not only quickly raise an alert against potential threats, but also follow it up with careful verification to reduce false alarms. We experiment with this SDN-supported collaborative approach to detect TCP SYN flood attacks on the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), a realistic virtual testbed. The response times and detection accuracy, in the context of a small to medium corporate network, have demonstrated its effectiveness and scalability. |

| | 777 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Due to the existence of multiple stakeholders with conflicting goals and policies, alterations to the existing Internet architecture are now limited to simple incremental updates; deployment of any new, radically different technology is next to impossible. To fend off this ossification, network virtualization has been propounded as a diversifying attribute of the future inter-networking paradigm. By introducing a plurality of heterogeneous network architectures cohabiting on a shared physical substrate, network virtualization promotes innovations and diversified applications. In this paper, we survey the existing technologies and a wide array of past and state-of-the-art projects on network virtualization followed by a discussion of major challenges in this area. |

| | 790 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper describes an Open Flow-based prototype of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall. The prototype of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall includes an Open Flow-enabled switch and a firewall controller. The security rules are specified in the flow table in both the Open Flow-enabled switch and the firewall controller. The firewall controller is in charge of making control decisions on regulating the unidentified traffic flows. A communication channel is needed between a firewall controller and an Open Flow enabled switch. Through this channel, a switch sends to the controller with the information of unidentified flows, and the controller sends to the switch with the control decisions. Constraining this communication overhead is important to the applicability of the prototype because a high communication overhead could disturb the performance evaluation on the operation of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall. |

| | 803 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper reports the integration of Dell's specialized split data plane (SDP) OpenFlow switch into the GENI testbed. In addition, the paper outlines the research directions in network science and engineering that such a switch may enable together with a new perspective on education in network programming. An SDP switch can be used to perform some specialized processing on flows with special hardware accelerators in addition to hosting any application (running on a Linux OS) that a user may insert on the path of a flow. The SDP switch is composed of a Dell switch (PowerConnect 7024) with an internal physical connection to a sub-unit, Network Processor Unit (NPU), by Cavium Networks. Hosting an OpenvSwitch on the NPU with open hosting of Linux applications enables software-defined networking experiments. The integration challenges/process associated with this unit is presented as a future reference to other such foreign box integrations. |

| | 829 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The research community has established that WiMAX networks suffer from Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerabilities. In this paper, we analyze how WiMAX system parameter settings increase or decrease DoS vulnerabilities of WiMAX networks. The behavior of the WiMAX MAC level protocol is sensitive to the settings of core system parameters. Unlike traditional network-based DoS attacks, attacks resulting from parameter misconfiguration are difficult for network operators to detect. We focus on bandwidth contention resolution aspects of the WiMAX MAC protocol. Simulations are performed using the ns-2 simulator. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) techniques on the resulting simulation data identify which bandwidth contention resolution parameter combinations are crucial for configuring WiMAX to be less vulnerable to DoS attacks. |

| | 868 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditionally, testbeds for networking and systems research have been stand-alone facilities: each is owned and operated by a single administrative entity, and is intended to be used independently of other testbeds. However, this isolated facility model is at odds with researchers' ever-increasing needs for experiments at larger scale and with a broader diversity of network technologies. The research community will be much better served by a federated model. In this model, each federated testbed maintains its own autonomy and unique strengths, but all federates work together to make their resources available under a common framework. Our challenge, then, is to design a federated testbed framework that balances competing needs: We must establish trust, but at the same time maintain the autonomy of each federated facility. While providing a unified interface to a broad set of resources, we need to expose the diversity that makes them valuable. Finally, our federation should work smoothly in a coordinated fashion, but avoid central points of failure and inter-facility dependencies. We argue that treating testbed design as a federated distributed systems problem is an effective approach to achieving this balance. The technique is illustrated through the example of ProtoGENI, a system we have designed, built, and operated according to the federated model. |

| | 881 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we describe our experience in implementing a non-IP routing protocol - Virtual Id Routing (VIRO) - using the OVS-SDN platform in GENI. As a novel, p̈lug-&amp;-play,̈ routing paradigm for future dynamic networks, VIRO decouples routing/forwarding from addressing by introducing a topology-aware, structured virtual id layer to encode the locations of switches and devices in the physical topology for scalable and resilient routing. Despite its general m̈atch-action ̈forwarding function, the existing OVS-SDN platform is closely tied to the conventional Ethernet/IP/TCP header formats, and cannot be directly used to implement the new VIRO routing/forwarding paradigm. As a result, we repurpose the Ethernet MAC address to represent VIRO virtual id, modify and extend the OVS (both within the user space and the kernel space) to implement the VIRO forwarding functions. We also utilize a set of local POX controllers (one per VIRO switch) to emulate the VIRO distributed control plane and one global POX controller to realize the VIRO (centralized) management plane. We evaluate our prototype implementation through the Mininet emulation and GENI deployment test and discuss some lessons learned using the test-bed. |

| | 894 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>There are many compelling reasons to use a shared, public testbed such as GENI, Emulab, or PlanetLab to conduct experiments in computer science and networking. These testbeds support creating experiments with a large and diverse set of resources. Moreover these testbeds are constructed to inherently support the repeatability of experiments as required for scientifically sound research. Finally, the artifacts needed for a researcher to repeat their own experiment can be shared so that others can readily repeat the experiment in the same environment. However using a shared, public testbed is different from conducting experiments on resources either owned by the experimenter or someone the experimenter knows. Experiments on shared, public testbeds are more likely to use large topologies, use scarce resources, and need to be tolerant to outages and maintenances in the testbed. In addition, experimenters may not have access to low-level debugging information. This paper describes a methodology for new experimenters to write and deploy repeatable and sharable experiments which deal with these challenges by: having a clear plan; automating the execution and analysis of an experiment by following best practices from software engineering and system administration; and building scalable experiments. In addition, the paper describes a case study run on the GENI testbed which illustrates the methodology described. |

| | 907 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interplanetary Internet or Interplanetary Networking (IPN) is envisaged as a space network which interconnects spacecrafts, satellites, rovers and orbiters of different planets and comets for efficient exchange of scientific data such as telemetry and images. IPNs are classified among challenged networks because of the unpredictable changes in the network and the large varying delays in communication. These net- works are hard to model using static graphs and do not behave optimally when operated using the static networks' standards and techniques. Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), in its different implementations, is one of the suggested solutions to overcome these networks' challenges. DTN has different routing techniques, among which Contact Graph Routing (CGR) is the more widely used in IPNs. In this thesis, we identify the shortcoming of CGR that results from overlooking the future contacts, and we propose the Earliest Arrival Optimal Delivery Ratio (EAODR) Routing that examines all the paths both with the desired earliest departure time and in the future in order to choose the earliest arrival path from a given node. EAODR finds the route that delivers the exchanged message (a. k. a. bundle) at most at the same time as CGR's route. In order to do that, we propose a Modified Temporal Graph (MTG) model that provides a near-real-time representation of the deterministic dynamic networks. We base EAODR routing algorithm on the MTG model. Our results show that we can reduce the delay by 12.9% compared to CGR when we apply our algorithm to over 50 combinations of bundle sizes and transmission times. |

| | 920 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interplanetary Internet or Interplanetary Networking is envisaged as a space network which interconnects spacecrafts, satellites, rovers and orbiters of different planets and comets for efficient exchange of scientific data such as telemetry and images. In this paper, we implement a layout of the Interplanetary Internet (IPN) with the Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) software module that uses Contact Graph Routing (CGR). The experiments are then implemented on the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed. Along with realistic contact plans (CP) of the nodes, this network implementation was used to run experiments testing the performance of Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) with and without cross links between Mars orbiters. The experiments showed that in an Earth-Mars communication network using two Mars orbiters, allowing cross links between the orbiters results in increasing the amount of data transferred by roughly 9.2%. Data sent from Mars Rover to the Earth stations also increases by 35.7% when a third satellite (Mars Express) was added to the network without cross links. Finally, when cross links are allowed across all satellites orbiting Mars and serving as relay nodes between the Earth stations and Mars rover, the communication was enhanced by almost 46%. We conclude that by adding cross links, the performance of the network is enhanced for a better transmission of data from Mars to the Earth, which is very pertinent for the scalability of the network. |

| | 946 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Designing a new network and upgrading existing network infrastructure are complex and arduous tasks. These projects are further complicated in campus, regional, and international research networks given the large bandwidth and unique segmentation requirements coupled with the unknown implications of testing new network protocols. The software-defined networking (SDN) revolution promises to alleviate these challenges by separating the network control plane from the data plane [208]. This allows for a more flexible and programmable network. While SDN has delivered large dividends to early adopters, it is still a monumental undertaking to re-architect an existing network to use new technology. To ease the transition burden, many research networks have chosen either a hybrid SDN solution or a clean-slate approach. Unfortunately, neither of these approaches can avoid the limitations of existing SDN implementations. For example, software-defined networking can introduce an increase in packet delay in a previously low-latency network. Therefore, it is vital for administrators to have an indepth understanding of these new challenges during the SDN transition. OpenFlow (OF) [209], the protocol many SDN controllers use to communicate with network devices, also has several drawbacks that network architects need to discern before designing the network. Therefore, care must be taken when designing and implementing a software-defined network. This thesis takes an in-depth look at Stanford University, GENI, and OFELIA as case study examples of campus, national, and international research networks that utilize SDN concepts. Additionally, we detail the planning of the future MCNC SDN that will connect several North Carolina research institutions using a high-speed software-defined network. After dissecting the design and implementation of these software-defined research networks, we present common challenges and lessons learned. Our analysis uncovered some common issues in existing software-defined networks. For example, there are problems with the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), switch/OpenFlow compatibility, hybrid OpenFlow/legacy switch implementations, and the FlowVisor network slicing tool. These potential issues are discussed in detail. Trends include implementation of OpenFlow version 1.3, use of commercial-quality controllers, and a transition to inexpensive network hardware through the use of software switches and NetFPGAs. We hope the findings presented in this thesis will allow network architects to avoid some of the difficulties that arise in design, implementation, and policy decisions when campus and other research networks are transitioning to a software-defined approach. |

| | 972 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A testbed capable of representing detailed operations of complex applications under diverse network conditions is invaluable for understanding the design and performance of new protocols and applications before their real deployment. We introduce a novel method that combines high-performance large-scale network simulation and high-fidelity network emulation, and thus enables real instances of network applications and protocols to run in real operating environments and be tested under simulated network settings. Using our approach, network simulation and emulation can form a symbiotic relationship, through which they are synchronized for an accurate representation of the network-scale traffic behavior. We introduce a model downscaling method along with an efficient queuing model and a traffic reproduction technique, which can significantly reduce the synchronization overhead and improve accuracy. We validate our approach with extensive experiments via simulation and with a real-system implementation. We also present a case study using our approach to evaluate a multipath data transport protocol. |

| | 985 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We demonstrate the dynamic layer instantiation feature of RINA by creating on the fly a new, higher level Virtual Private Cloud DIF. The demonstration includes two IPC processes, VPC1 and VPC2, that initially use two separate private DIFs — an Enterprise DIF and a Cloud Provider DIF — to communicate with their respective local processes. Later on, an enterprise application process App1 asks for a flow service, so as to communicate with App2, a remote application process on the Cloud Provider DIF. Such request, handled by the underlying communication process VPC1, cannot occur unless there is a common underlying Virtual Private Cloud DIF to which both VPC1 and VPC2 subscribe. We demonstrate this dynamic instantiation of the DIF layer over the GENI testbed. |

| | 998 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Today's Internet Service Providers (ISPs) serve two roles: managing their network infrastructure and providing (arguably limited) services to end users. We argue that coupling these roles impedes the deployment of new protocols and architectures, and that the future Internet should support two separate entities: infrastructure providers (who manage the physical infrastructure) and service providers (who deploy network protocols and offer end-to-end services). We present a high-level design for Cabo, an architecture that enables this separation; we also describe challenges associated with realizing this architecture |

We describe how the current coupling of high-level policy with low-level configuration makes these problems challenging today. We describe the specific policy problems faced by campus and enterprise network operators; illustrate our approach, which leverages recent trends in separating the network's ” control plane” from the data plane; and show how this approach can be applied to simplify these two enterprise network management tasks. We also describe our ongoing deployment efforts to build a campus network testbed where trial designs can be deployed and evaluated. We close with a summary of current and future research challenges for solving challenges within enterprise networks within the context of this new paradigm. |

| | 1024 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a virtual laboratory which provides the infrastructure and resources for setting up network experiments. At present, GENI experimenters need to draw the topology in detail with a tool such as Flack, describing every node and every link in the experiment. This is not a problem for small-scale experiments. However, if an experiment needs a large-scale network topology, it is difficult for experimenters to accomplish the task. To deal with the problem, this paper develops a web application that can create large-scale network topologies in the GENI environment automatically. It makes use of existing network topology generators, such as GT-ITMand INET, and adapts them to be used in the GENI environment. The system can interface with GENI seamlessly. With the tool, the task of setting up large-scale experiments by GENI experimenters is made as easy as simply specifying high-level parameters of the topology. |

| | 1037 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) provides a virtual laboratory for exploring future internets at scale. It consists of many geographically distributed aggregates for providing computing and networking resources for setting up network experiments. A key design question for GENI experimenters is where they should reserve the resources, and in particular whether they should reserve the resources from a single aggregate or from multiple aggregates. This not only depends on the nature of the experiment, but needs a better understanding of underlying GENI networks as well. This paper studies the performance of GENI networks, with a focus on the tradeoff between single aggregate and multiple aggregates in the design of GENI experiments from the performance perspective. The analysis of data collected will shed light on the decision process for designing GENI experiments. |

After a description of the major issues characterizing the management of the expected Future Internet, the main autonomic management paradigms, and some recently introduced autonomic service platforms, we show and demonstrate the effectiveness of the NetServ architecture. Born as a means to deploy and execute networked services at runtime over programmable routers, NetServ has proved to be a suitable environment for hosting an autonomic management architecture. |

| | 1063 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A major difficulty in the design, study, and implementation of wireless protocols and applications is the multitude of nondeterministic factors (e.g. interference, weather conditions, competing traffic) that can affect their performance. For this reason, testbeds that enable researchers to quantify these influences have become increasingly essential in the wireless research community. The growing sophistication of wireless testbeds and the wide array of services they can provide to researchers have advanced the field tremendously. Toward this end, we present an early implementation of an instrumentation and measurement framework that we have deployed on an open-access 802.16e wireless research testbed at the Polytechnic Institute of NYU. We have created a set of tools to allow experimenters to routinely collect measurements of environmental conditions during experiment runtime. These tools integrate high volumes of multidimensional measurement data from a diverse array of sources, including measurements from software defined radio peripherals, sensors, and network device drivers. With this, we aim to give researchers the ability to conduct rigorous and repeatable over-the-air experiments. We also foresee potential applications for this framework beyond its use in experiments, such as in long-term testbed monitoring. |

| | 1076 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In the last few years, there has been an increasing awareness of the need to evaluate new mobile applications and protocols in realistic wireless settings, and platforms such as the GENI WiMAX testbeds have been developed to fulfill this need. However, wireless testbed users have experienced frustration when straightforward usage scenarios do not consistently agree with the high data rates that are advertised by the wireless technology. This work seeks to clarify the performance characteristics of two GENI WiMAX testbeds under various wireless signal conditions and network traffic patterns. By measuring the performance of several popular wireless Internet applications in two very different wireless environments, we gain a deeper understanding of how a researcher may expect the GENI WiMAX platform to behave. Our findings include some counterintuitive results, e.g. that increasing signal quality can reduce application throughput, and that applications using a single TCP flow may achieve as much as 72% less throughput than an application in an identical setting that uses multiple TCP flows. With this work, we hope to help other researchers design realistic experiments on wireless Internet systems, understand the perceived shortcomings of the GENI WiMAX platform, and interpret their experimental results in the context of the wireless setting in which the experiment was conducted. |

We propose programming exercises for graduate students to introduce GENI and enable students to conduct high fidelity networking experiments. In this paper, we focus on an exercise to study congestion control and reliability using the ProtoGENI aggregate. A planned second exercise aims to leverage GENI OpenFlow aggregates to study firewalls and QoS mechanisms. We believe that these lab exercises will expose students to key networking concepts and recent research directions, e.g., in the data center context. |

| | 1102 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Shared measurement services offer key advantages over conventional ad-hoc techniques for network monitoring. A measurement service may receive measurement requests concurrently from different applications and network administrators. These measurement requests are often served by injecting active network measurement traffic between two hosts. Two active measurements are said to interfere when the probe packets of one measurement tool are viewed as network traffic by the other. This may lead to faulty measurement readings. In this paper, we model the measurement interference problem, and show how to schedule measurement tasks to reduce interference and hence increase measurement accuracy. We propose twelve computationally tractable algorithms that decrease the total completion time (makespan) of measurement tasks, while avoiding interference. Our evaluation shows that the algorithm we refer to as Largest Area First, Busiest Node First - Earliest Interval Schedule (LAFBNF-EIS) has a mean makespan of about 5% more than the theoretical lower bound over our set of measurement workloads. |

| | 1128 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Offloading has emerged as a promising idea to allow handheld devices to access intensive applications without performance or energy costs. This could be particularly useful for enterprises seeking to run line-of-business applications on handhelds. However, we must address two practical roadblocks in order to make offloading amenable for enterprises: (i) ensuring data privacy and the use of trusted offloading resources, and (ii) accommodating offload at scale with diverse handheld objectives and compute resource capabilities. We present the design and implementation of an Enterprise-Centric Offloading System (ECOS) which augments prior offloading proposals to address these issues. ECOS uses a logically central controller to opportunistically leverage diverse compute resources, while tightly controlling where specific applications offload depending on privacy, performance, and energy constraints of users and applications. A wide range of experiments using a real prototype establish the effectiveness of our approach. |

| | 1141 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Today, commercial load balancers are often in use, including in the production network at Arizona State University (ASU). One of the main issues such load balancers face is that they use a static scheme for load distribution. However, at particular times of the academic year, such as during course registration, the network exhibits significant variations in both temporal and spatial traffic characteristics. At these times, students experience much greater latency and become frustrated with the network service. To address this problem, our aim is to develop an SDN-based approach to load balancing to better cope with the traffic variation. |

| | 1154 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>eXpressive Internet Architecture (XIA) [1] is an architecture that natively supports multiple communication types and allows networks to evolve their abstractions and functionality to accommodate new styles of communication over time. XIA embeds an elegant mechanism for handling unforeseen communication types for legacy routers. In this demonstration, we show that XIA overcomes three key barriers in network evolution (outlined below) by (1) allowing end-hosts and applications to start using new communication types (e.g., service and content) before the network supports them, (2) ensuring that upgrading a subset of routers to support new functionalities immediately benefits applications, and (3) using the same mechanisms we employ for 1 and 2 to incrementally deploy XIA in IP networks. |

| | 1167 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Although GENI has been readily embraced by the research community as a testbed for exploring new network architectures and services, its use as an educational tool has not seen the same level of acceptance and usage. There are multiple reasons for this, not the least of which is a lack of good examples showing how to use GENI in an educational setting. This paper attempts to remedy this by describing our experiences using GENI in our networking classes at the University of Kentucky. Using GENI as the experimental basis for the projects in our classes allowed us to leverage several of its rich set of features including its global span of resources, programmability, virtualization, and instrumentation and measurement tools. In particular, we describe two projects that we have used in our networking classes, and we share some of the experience we gained in the process. As a result, these experiences motivated us to develop and integrate new functions into the GENI desktop in order to make it easier to access and control GENI's various resources and tools. |

| | 1178 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Much of the GENI effort in developing network testbeds has been focused on building the control frameworks needed to allocate and initialize the network resources that make up an experiment. We argue that building the instrumentation and measurement system to monitor and capture the behavior of the network is just as important and challenging as setting up the network itself, especially in a virtualized and federated environment where getting information from experimental nodes is too complicated and too much to handle for a typical user. In this paper, we describe the design of an instrumentation and measurement infrastructure that allows users to monitor their experiments. The challenge that virtualization and federation of GENI testbeds bring to instrumentation and monitoring is how to hide the details of instrumentation setup from users so that users do not need to be experts in system administration or network management of virtualized and federated systems, but are still able to ” see” what is going on with their experiments. Our instrumentation tool sets up experiment-specific monitoring infrastructure that is tailored to capture, record, and display only information associated with that experiment. Our tools are currently available in GENI, and we present a simple example of how to use them to instrument an experiment. |

| | 1191 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation with new network architectures and protocols is one of the primary motivations for building future Internet testbeds such as the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed. A key part of experimentation is the ability to observe, measure, evaluate, and compare these new architectures and protocols. Observing an experiment's network performance requires setting up the measurement infrastructure needed to monitor and record the behavior of the network. It also requires a full set of tools and user interfaces that enable access to the measurement data both while the experiment is running and later during post-analysis. To simplify the task of measuring experiments in future Internet testbeds like GENI, we developed an instrumentation and measurement system called INSTOOLS. It automates the process of setting up the measurement infrastructure, tailoring the measurement infrastructure and the data capture to the experimental network's topology and configuration. In addition, INSTOOLS provides a suite of tools via its ” portal” service that make it easy for users to observe, measure, format, and archive data from their experiments. This paper describes the INSTOOLS system and the set of interfaces/tools it offers to users. INSTOOLS has been in use for several years, and we provide performance results that illustrate its scalability. We also present our second-generation portal, the GENI One Stop Portal, that offers a comprehensive interface to a wide range of tools. |

| | 1204 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Over the last few years the National Science Foundation (NSF) has been investing in and developing a new network called GENI, a wide-area testbed network for at-scale experimentation with future internet designs. The GENI network has recently become available for use and is beginning to attract users. In this paper, we take a closer look at GENI with a particular focus on how GENI can be used to enhance education in the areas of computer science and computer engineering. We describe what GENI is, the resources available in GENI, and how instructors might use GENI in their classes. Being early adopters, we describe our experience using GENI in our classes, and we point out various features and challenges of using GENI. Finally, we provide tips and pointers to instructors who are interested in incorporating GENI into their own classes. |

| | 1230 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Network (SDN) structure has been proposed for its flexibility in deployment and management. As an implementation of SDN structure, OpenFlow protocol decouples data plane and control plane so that flexible and programmable installation and management of forwarding rules are allowed. However, on the other hand, the decoupled structure raises additional computational and network resources consumption that even may lead to fatal disasters. In this study, we examine the issues of reliability and scalability of SDN under disaster scenarios on a GENI test-bed. Observations from our experiments show that more attention should be paid to improve the reliability and scalability of SDN and its frameworks. |

| | 1243 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>BGP severely constrains how networks can deliver traffic over the Internet. Today's networks can only forward traffic based on the destination IP prefix, by selecting among routes offered by their immediate neighbors. We believe Software Defined Networking (SDN) could revolutionize wide-area traffic delivery, by offering direct control over packet-processing rules that match on multiple header fields and perform a variety of actions. Internet exchange points (IXPs) are a compelling place to start, given their central role in interconnecting many networks and their growing importance in bringing popular content closer to end users. To realize a Software Defined IXP (an S̈DX)̈, we must create compelling applications, such as äpplication-specific peering-̈--where two networks peer only for (say) streaming video traffic. We also need new programming abstractions that allow participating networks to create and run these applications and a runtime that both behaves correctly when interacting with BGP and ensures that applications do not interfere with each other. Finally, we must ensure that the system scales, both in rule-table size and computational overhead. In this paper, we tackle these challenges and demonstrate the flexibility and scalability of our solutions through controlled and in-the-wild experiments. Our experiments demonstrate that our SDX implementation can implement representative policies for hundreds of participants who advertise full routing tables while achieving sub-second convergence in response to configuration changes and routing updates. |

| | 1269 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditionally data management software running on top of the Internet has very limited primitives to interact with the networking layer. This limitation has become a major road-block to develop next generation data management applications requiring high-bandwidth and dynamic network configuration. In this work, we present a policy-driven software framework that acts as an adaptation layer between the data management software and SDN networks. This framework allows a tight coupling between the data grid and the network and therefore makes complex workflow-like cross-layer computation possible. We have prototyped this adaptation layer integrated with iRODS, a popular policy-driven data grid software and Floodlight, a popular OpenFlow controller, and demonstrate how network policies become part of the overall data grid policies to improve the application performance. |

| | 1282 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Although the underlying network resources needed to support virtualized networks are rapidly becoming available, the tools and abstractions needed to effectively make use of these virtual networks is severely lacking. Although networks like GENI are now available to experimenters, creating an experimental network can still be a daunting and error-prone task. While virtual networks enable experimenters to build tailored networks from the g̈round up,̈ starting from scratch is rarely what an experimenter wants to do. Moreover, the challenges of incorporating real-world users into GENI experiments make it difficult to benefit real users or obtain realistic traffic. In this paper we describe a new service designed to simplify the process of setting up and running GENI experiments while at the same time adding support for real-world users to join GENI experiments. Our approach is based on a network hypervisor service used to deploy ḦyperNets:̈ pre-defined experimental environments that can be quickly and easily created by experimenters. To illustrate the utility and simplicity of our approach, we describe two example HyperNets, and show how our network hypervisor service is able to automatically deploy them on GENI. We then present some initial performance results from our implentation on GENI. Because our network hypervisor is itself a client of GENI (i.e., it calls the GENI AM APIs to create HyperNets), we briefly discuss our experience using GENI and the challenges we encountered mapping HyperNets onto the GENI framework. |

| | 1295 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has been widely recognized as a promising way to deploy new services and protocols in future networks. The programmability and control offered by SDN networks enables users and applications to define virtually every aspect of the network architecture. Unfortunately, this flexibility comes at a cost - a cost that has the potential to significantly limit its adoption. First, in order to offer complete flexibility, today's SDN networks provide low-level API's on which almost any type of service can be written. In the process, it can actually become more difficult to implement the higher level complex services needed by future networks. Second, emerging SDN networks exhibit a heterogeneity reminiscent of the early Internet, with limited ability to piece together the various SDN platforms being deployed. In this paper we propose a new way to construct SDN networks consisting of multiple SDN providers offering virtualizable networking resources across the Internet. At the heart of our approach is a Network Hypervisor service that is capable of internetworking various SDN providers together. Moreover, our Network Hypervisor builds on the low-level APIs provided by SDNs to create a unified set of high-level abstractions and APIs that greatly simplify the task of building and deploying complex network services over SDN. |

| | 1308 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization is becoming a fundamental building block of future Internet architectures. Although the underlying network infrastructure needed to dynamically create and deploy custom virtual networks is rapidly taking shape ( e.g., GENI), constructing and using a virtual network is still a challenging and labor intensive task, one best left to experts. In this paper, we present the concept of a Packaged Virtual Network (PVN), that enables normal users to easily download, deploy and use application-specific virtual networks. At the heart of our approach is a PVN Hypervisor that ” runs” a PVN by allocating the virtual network resources needed by the PVN and then connecting the PVN's participants into the network on demand. To demonstrate our PVN approach, we implemented a multicast PVN that runs on the PVN hypervisor prototype using ProtoGENI as the underlying virtual network, allowing average users to create their own private multicast network. |

| | 1321 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interdomain path changes occur frequently. Because routing protocols expose insufficient information to reason about all changes, the general problem of identifying the root cause remains unsolved. In this work, we design and evaluate PoiRoot, a real-time system that allows a provider to accurately isolate the root cause (the network responsible) of path changes affecting its prefixes. First, we develop a new model describing path changes and use it to provably identify the set of all potentially responsible networks. Next, we develop a recursive algorithm that accurately isolates the root cause of any path change. We observe that the algorithm requires monitoring paths that are generally not visible using standard measurement tools. To address this limitation, we combine existing measurement tools in new ways to acquire path information required for isolating the root cause of a path change. We evaluate PoiRoot on path changes obtained through controlled Internet experiments, simulations, and ïn-the-wild ̈measurements. We demonstrate that PoiRoot is highly accurate, works well even with partial information, and generally narrows down the root cause to a single network or two neighboring ones. On controlled experiments PoiRoot is 100% accurate, as opposed to prior work which is accurate only 61.7% of the time. |

| | 1334 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The rapid adoption of mobile devices comes with the growing prevalence of mobile malware. Mobile malware poses serious threats to personal information and creates challenges in securing network. Traditional network services provide connectivity but do not have any direct mechanism for security protection. The emergence of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) provides a unique opportunity to achieve network security in a more efficient and flexible manner. In this paper, we analyze the behaviors of mobile malware, propose several mobile malware detection algorithms, and design and implement a malware detection system using SDN. Our system detects mobile malware by identifying suspicious network activities through real-time traffic analysis, which only requires connection establishment packets. Specifically, our detection algorithms are implemented as modules inside the OpenFlow controller, and the security rules can be imposed in real time. We have tested our system prototype using both a local testbed and GENI infrastructure. Test results confirm the feasibility of our approach. In addition, the stress testing results show that even unoptimized implementations of our algorithms do not affect the performance of the OpenFlow controller significantly. |

| | 1347 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network performance in terms of throughput, latency, packet loss or jitter significantly influences user's quality of experience of cloud applications. Network services impact on cloud applications performance and this impact is even more significant when the cloud infrastructure spreads over different administrative domains, such as in a federated cloud or hybrid-cloud scenarios. Given this strong coupling between cloud application performance and network performance there is great value to be gained by supporting advanced controlled networking functionalities between distributed cloud infrastructures. These functionalities would be useful to the Future Internet (FI) experimentation community as well as future production clouds. This paper describes an architecture and a set of procedures to interconnect a multi-cloud environment with advanced facilities for controlled networking. This integration allows the provisioning of customized network functions and services in support of experiments running in a multi-cloud test-bed. The possibility to control the network connectivity is a key feature to provide better performance for the experimenters' cloud applications. We focus on the details of federating three advanced networking facilities with the BonFIRE multi-cloud environment. These three networking facilities are: FEDERICA, which supports controlled routing; GÉANT's Bandwidth-on-Demand service and OFELIA that uses OpenFlow to provide Software Defined Network functionalities. The interconnections with FEDERICA and GÉANT are already active, while OFELIA is envisaged as future work for a third facility to interconnect. |

| | 1360 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>While more and more services become virtualised and always accessible in our society, laboratories supporting Computer Science (CS) lectures have mainly remained offline and class-based. This apparent abnormality is due to several limiting factors, discussed in the literature, such as the high cost of deploying and maintaining computer network testbeds and the lack of standardisation for the presentation of eLearning platforms. In this paper, we present the FORGE toolkit, which leverages experimentation facilities currently deployed in international initiatives for the development of e-learning materials. Thus, we solve the institutional challenge mentioned in the ACM/IEEE 2013 CS curricula concerning the access and maintenance of specialised and heterogeneous hardware thanks to a seamless integration with the networking testbed community. Moreover, this project builds an ecosystem where teaching and educational materials, tools and experiments are available under open scheme and policies. We demonstrate how it already meets most of the requirements from the Network and Communication component of CS 2013 and some of the labs of the Cisco academy. Finally, we present experience reports illustrating the potential benefits of this framework based on first deployments in four post-graduate courses in prestigious institutions around the world. |

| | 1373 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As a first step towards predictable, repeatable WSN experimentation, we propose the resource specification language LENS (a.k.a. Language for Embedded Networked Sensing) for WSN experimentation infrastructures. Using the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and the Web Ontology Language (OWL), LENS defines a semantic ontology for WSN resources; LENS enables explicit control and measurement of uncertainty factors, and it enables reasoning about the relationships between WSN resources. Focusing on basic concepts of WSNs, LENS supports resource specification in a wide range of WSN experimentation infrastructures, and it is extensible to support potentially unforeseen technologies. LENS is also compatible with specification languages for other network resources such as optical networks. As a part of the NSF GENI initiative, we have implemented LENS in the KanseiGenie control framework, and LENS has been actively used to support experimentation in the federated WSN infrastructure involving Kansei and NetEye. Enabling reasoning about uncertainty factors in experimentation, LENS is expected to serve as a basis for developing methodologies and tools for predictable, repeatable WSN experimentation. |

| | 1386 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>HTTP based online video streaming services have been consistently dominating the online traffic for the past few years. Measuring and improving the performance of these services is an important challenge. Traditional Quality-of-Service (QoS) metrics such as packet loss, jitter and delay which were used for networked services are not easily understood by the users. Instead, Quality-of-Experience (QoE) metrics which capture the overall satisfaction are more suitable for measuring the quality as perceived by the users. However, these QoE metrics have not yet been standardized and their measurement and improvement poses unique challenges. In this work we first present a comprehensive survey of the different set of QoE metrics and the measurement methodologies suitable for HTTP based online video streaming services. We then present our active QoE measurement tool Pytomo that measures the QoE of YouTube videos. A case study on the measurement of QoE of YouTube videos when accessed by residential users from three different Internet Service Providers (ISP) in a metropolitan area is discussed. This is the first work that has collected QoE data from actual residential users using active measurements for YouTube videos. Based on these measurements we were able to study and compare the QoE of YouTube videos across multiple ISPs. We also were able to correlate the QoE observed with the server clusters used for the different users. Based on this correlation we were able to identify the server clusters that were experiencing diminished QoE. DynamicAdaptive Streaming overHTTP (DASH) is an HTTP based video streaming that enables the video players to adapt the video quality based on the network conditions. We next present a rate adaptation algorithm that improves the QoE of DASH video streaming services that selects the most optimum video quality. With DASH the video server hosts multiple representation of the same video and each representation is divided into small segments of constant playback duration. The DASH player downloads the appropriate representation based on the network conditions, thus, adapting the video quality to match the conditions. Currently deployed Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) algorithms use throughput and buffer occupancy to predict segment fetch times. These algorithms assume that the segments are of equal size. However, due to the encoding schemes employed this assumption does not hold. In order to overcome these limitations, we propose a novel Segment Aware Rate Adaptation algorithm (SARA) that leverages the knowledge of the segment size variations to improve the prediction of segment fetch times. Using an emulated player in a geographically distributed virtual network setup, we compare the performance of SARA with existing ABR algorithms. We demonstrate that SARA helps to improve the QoE of the DASH video streaming with improved convergence time, better bitrate switching performance and better video quality. We also show that unlike the existing adaptation schemes, SARA provides a consistent QoE irrespective of the segment size distributions. |

| | 1399 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Dynamic adaptive HTTP (DASH) based streaming is steadily becoming the most popular online video streaming technique. DASH streaming provides seamless playback by adapting the video quality to the network conditions during the video playback. A DASH server supports adaptive streaming by hosting multiple representations of the video and each representation is divided into small segments of equal playback duration. At the client end, the video player uses an adaptive bitrate selection (ABR) algorithm to decide the bitrate to be selected for each segment depending on the current network conditions. Currently, proposed ABR algorithms ignore the fact that the segment sizes significantly vary for a given video bitrate. Due to this, even though an ABR algorithm is able to measure the network bandwidth, it may fail to predict the time to download the next segment In this paper, we propose a segment-aware rate adaptation (SARA) algorithm that considers the segment size variation in addition to the estimated path bandwidth and the current buffer occupancy to accurately predict the time required to download the next segment We also developed an open source Python based emulated DASH video player, that was used to compare the performance of SARA and a basic ABR. Our results show that SARA provides a significant gain over the basic algorithm in the video quality delivered, without noticeably impacting the video switching rates. |

| | 1412 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Our previous work enabled ” federation-less federation”, which means a federation of multiple network-virtualization platforms that do not support federation functions, and applied this method to a homogeneous federation of platforms called the ” VNode” infrastructures. In this study, this method was applied to a heterogeneous federation of the ProtoGENI and the ” VNode”. We intended to federate these platforms through a single management interface. However, the federation architecture of GENI, which is called the slice-based federation architecture (SFA), cannot be used for single-interface federation but we could not modify the ProtoGENI platform to enable it. Therefore, a method for applying federation-less-federation to ProtoGENI was developed. It enabled federation of these platforms by adding several nodes but without modifying preexisting platforms. This method was applied to federation of the ProtoGENI platform at the University of Utah and two VNode infrastructures in Japan, the slice creation and deletion time was measured and evaluated to be acceptable. Although this federation-less-federation implementation still has several minor problems, it was proved to be useful for experiments and demonstrations. |

| | 1425 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) has become an increasingly popular type of service for both private and public clouds. The virtual infrastructures that enable IaaS support multitenancy by multiplexing the computational resources of data centers and result in substantial reductions in operational costs. Since hardware and software failures occur on a routine basis in large-scale systems, it is imperative for cloud providers to offer various failure recovery options for distributed services hosted on such infrastructures. In this article we present GENI-VIOLIN, a new cloud capability that can checkpoint a stateful distributed service while incurring very low overhead. The unique aspect of GENI-VIOLIN compared to previous work is that GENI-VIOLIN exploits programmable OpenFlow switches to provide checkpointing services in the network, thereby requiring minimal changes to the end host virtualization framework. We have developed a prototype of GENI-VIOLIN using the GENI infrastructure, and have demonstrated GENI-VIOLIN's checkpoint and restore capability across multiple GENI sites. |

| | 1438 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We propose a new approach to mitigate disruptions of Internet connectivity. The Internet was designed to always find a route if there is a policy-compliant path; however, in many cases, connectivity is disrupted despite the existence of an underlying valid path. The research community has done considerable work on this problem, much of it focused on short-term outages that occur during route convergence. There has been less progress on addressing avoidable long-lasting outages. Our measurements show that long-lasting events contribute significantly to overall unavailability. To address these long-term problems, we develop a system, Machiavellian routing, for automatic failure remediation, centered around the use of BGP poisoning. With poisoning, an edge network can cause other networks to send traffic to it via paths that avoid a problem in a particular transit ISP. We describe the key challenges to using poisoning to improve Internet connectivity, and we develop a set of techniques to use it predictably, accurately, and effectively. |

| | 1451 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Internet was designed to always find a route if there is a policy-compliant path. However, in many cases, connectivity is disrupted despite the existence of an underlying valid path. The research community has focused on short-term outages that occur during route convergence. There has been less progress on addressing avoidable long-lasting outages. Our measurements show that long-lasting events contribute significantly to overall unavailability. To address these problems, we develop LIFEGUARD, a system for automatic failure localization and remediation. LIFEGUARD uses active measurements and a historical path atlas to locate faults, even in the presence of asymmetric paths and failures. Given the ability to locate faults, we argue that the Internet protocols should allow edge ISPs to steer traffic to them around failures, without requiring the involvement of the network causing the failure. Although the Internet does not explicitly support this functionality today, we show how to approximate it using carefully crafted BGP messages. LIFEGUARD employs a set of techniques to reroute around failures with low impact on working routes. Deploying LIFEGUARD on the Internet, we find that it can effectively route traffic around an AS without causing widespread disruption. |

| | 1464 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Networks are complex and prone to bugs. Existing tools that check configuration files and data-plane state operate offline at timescales of seconds to hours, and cannot detect or prevent bugs as they arise. Is it possible to check network-wide invariants in real time, as the network state evolves? The key challenge here is to achieve extremely low latency during the checks so that network performance is not affected. In this paper, we present a preliminary design, VeriFlow, which suggests that this goal is achievable. VeriFlow is a layer between a software-defined networking controller and network devices that checks for network-wide invariant violations dynamically as each forwarding rule is inserted. Based on an implementation using a Mininet OpenFlow network and Route Views trace data, we find that VeriFlow can perform rigorous checking within hundreds of microseconds per rule insertion. |

| | 1490 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The classical Internet has confronted many drawbacks in terms of network security, scalability, and performance, although it has strongly influenced the development and evolution of diverse network technologies, applications, and services. Therefore, new innovative research on the Future Internet has been performed to resolve the inherent weaknesses of the traditional Internet, which, in turn, requires new at-scale network testbeds and research infrastructure for large-scale experiments. In this context, K-GENI has been developed as an international programmable Future Internet testbed in the GENI spiral-2 program, and it has been operational between the USA (GENI) and Korea (KREONET) since 2010. The K-GENI testbed and the related collaborative efforts will be introduced with two major topics in this paper: (1) the design and deployment of the K-GENI testbed and (2) the federated meta operations between the K-GENI and GENI testbeds. Regarding the second topic in particular, we will describe how meta operations are federated across K-GENI between GMOC (GENI Meta Operations Center) and DvNOC (Distributed virtual Network Operations Center on KREONET/K-GENI), which is the first trial of an international experiment on the federated network operations over GENI. |

| | 1503 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>FiRST (Future Internet Research for Sustainable Test-bed) is the future internet platform development project being performed in Korea. The goal of the project is to create the virtualized and dynamic service creation environments over future internet networks; it is an experimental project to realize future innovative service ideas over real network environments. Among this, cloud computing is the key enabler to control and allocate virtualized network resources (such as CPU, storage, and virtualized network configuration) for the requested services. However, researches on interworking between future internet and cloud computing is in initial phase. In this paper, we propose the FiRST Cloud Aggregate Manager (AM) based on GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovation) AM Application Programming Interface (API) for the federation between future internet test-bed and open source OpenStack cloud computing platform. After that, we propose the zero-client service for mobile cloud management. In order to control the zero-client service, we develop Cloud Mobility Client/Server. And, we validate and verified our FiRST Cloud AM and zero-client service by developing experimental test-bed. Through this test-bed, we confirm that the proposed FiRST Cloud AM and zero-client service efficiently interworks with future internet control plane framework by using GENI Control Framework (GCF) tools. |

| | 1516 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>An analysis of requesting resources from large-scale networks reveals a fundamental challenge. As the network grows, more and more resources become available, and so finding resources that fit experimental test criteria becomes difficult and time consuming. For example, the National Science Foundation sponsors GENI--an experimental network with a goal to gain enough resources to model the Internet at scale. Currently, GENI contains relatively few contributed resources donated from businesses and academia, and so matching resources to tests is rather simple. However, experimenters plan to conduct network experiments that are very complex and difficult to accurately model by using the vast numbers of resources expected in GENI. When GENI reaches its final state, finding the right resources that fit experimental test criteria out of many thousands of donated resources may be as difficult as conducting the experiment itself. This dilemma underscores the importance of establishing an attribute description service that promotes a standardized language for all interactions between the end users and the large-scale network. |

| | 1529 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined Networking (SDN) has emerged as a new paradigm of networking that enables network operators, owners, vendors, and even third parties to innovate and create new capabilities at a faster pace. The SDN paradigm shows potential for all domains of use, including data centers, cellular providers, service providers, enterprises, and homes. Over a three-year period, we deployed SDN technology at our campus and at several other campuses nation-wide with the help of partners. These deployments included the first-ever SDN prototype in a lab for a (small) global deployment. The four-phased deployments and demonstration of new networking capabilities enabled by SDN played an important role in maturing SDN and its ecosystem. We share our experiences and lessons learned that have to do with demonstration of SDN's potential; its influence on successive versions of OpenFlow specification; evolution of SDN architecture; performance of SDN and various components; and growing the ecosystem. |

Cloud platforms IaaS model seems well suited for applications which are executed on an irregular basis and for short duration. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of research testbed cloud platforms such as GENICloud and ORCA cloud clusters for our real-time scientific application of short-term weather forecasting called Nowcasting. In this paper, we evaluate the network capabilities of these research cloud testbeds for our real-time application of weather forecasting. In addition, we evaluate the computation time of executing Nowcasting on each cloud platform for weather data collected from real weather events. We also evaluate the total time taken to generate and transmit short-term forecast images to end users with live data from our own radar on campus. We also compare the performance of each of these clusters for Nowcasting with commercial cloud services such as Amazon's EC2. The results obtained from our measurement show that cloud testbeds are suitable for real-time application experiments to be carried out on a cloud platform. |

| | 1566 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Dedicating high-end servers for executing scientific applications that run intermittently, such as severe weather detection or generalized weather forecasting, wastes resources. While the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model used by today's cloud platforms is well-suited for the bursty computational demands of these applications, it is unclear if the network capabilities of today's cloud platforms are sufficient. In this paper, we analyze the networking capabilities of multiple commercial (Amazon's EC2 and Rackspace) and research (GENICloud and ExoGENI cloud) platforms in the context of a Nowcasting application, a forecasting algorithm for highly accurate, near-term, e.g., 5-20 minutes, weather predictions. The application has both computational and network requirements. While it executes rarely, whenever severe weather approaches, it benefits from an IaaS model; However, since its results are time-critical, enough bandwidth must be available to transmit radar data to cloud platforms before it becomes stale. We conduct network capacity measurements between radar sites and cloud platforms throughout the country. Our results indicate that ExoGENI cloud performs the best for both serial and parallel data transfer with an average throughput of 110.22 Mbps and 17.2 Mbps, respectively. We also found that the cloud services perform better in the distributed data transfer case, where a subset of nodes transmit data in parallel to a cloud instance. Ultimately, we conclude that commercial and research clouds are capable of providing sufficient bandwidth for our real-time Nowcasting application. |

| | 1579 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are expected to provide assistance to various applications, such as accident notification and emergency announcement. Named Data Networking (NDN) has been recognized as a more suitable architecture than TCP/IP for application in VANETs due to its ability to handle high mobility and intermittent connectivity. The Vehicular NDN (V-NDN) has further made special architectural modifications for VANETs. However, V-NDN can be challenged in its extensive use of broadcast in dense network situations. For example, broadcasting of interest packets could lead to more collisions. In this study, we explore the broadcast performance of V-NDN using the ORBIT testbed. Our experimental results show that VNDN suffers an increased loss ratio in dense network scenarios because of Wifi broadcast collision, and it is important to find a suitable range of values to be distributed by the collision avoidance timer before transmission. |

| | 1592 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined Networking (SDN) promises to redefine the future of networking. Indeed, SDN-based networks have unique capabilities such as centralized control, flow abstraction, dynamic updating of forwarding rules and software-based traffic analysis. SDN-based networks decouple the data plane from the control plane, migrating the latter to a software controller. By adding a software layer between network devices and applications, features such as network virtualization and automated management are simpler to achieve. In this dissertation, we show how SDN-based deployments simplify network management at multiple scales such as campus and transport networks, as well as future Internet architectures. First, we propose OpenSec, an SDN-based security framework that allows network operators to implement security policies in campus networks. Second, we propose the eXtensible Traffic Engineering Framework (XTEF) to enable application-driven traffic engineering and provision transport network resources using on-demand Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) tunnels. Third, we demonstrate how SDN can be used to dynamically create intra-domain cut-through switching tunnels to bypass the routing layer in MobilityFirst. Finally, we propose how to extend the cut-through capabilities to inter-domain routing in MobilityFirst. In our work, we run experiments on the GENI testbed (Global Environment for Network Innovations), the ORBIT (Open-Access Research Testbed for Next-Generation Wireless Networks) and Mininet. The results show that SDN can be used to simplify policy-based network management, virtualize an entire WAN as a single switch, create Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) tunnels on demand and create inter-domain tunnels using techniques that scale better than traditional distributed methods. |

| | 1605 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Mobile devices are expected to become the Internet's predominant technology. Current protocols such as TCP/IP were not originally designed with mobility as a key consideration, and therefore underperform under challenging mobile and wireless conditions. MobilityFirst, a clean slate architecture proposal, embraces several key concepts centered around secure identifiers that inherently support mobility and trustworthiness as key requirements of the network architecture. This includes a hop-by-hop segmented data transport based on a globally unique identifier. This allows late and dynamic rebinding of end-point addresses to support mobility. While this provides critical gains in wireless segments, some overheads are incurred even in stable segments such as in the core. Bypassing routing-layer decisions in these cases, with lower layer cut-through forwarding, can improve said gains. In this work, we introduce a general bypass capability within the MobilityFirst architecture that provides better performance and enables both individual and aggregate flow-level traffic control. Furthermore, we present an OpenFlow-based proof-of-concept implementation of the bypass function using layer 2 VLAN tagging. We run experiments on the ORBIT and Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbeds to evaluate the performance and scalability of the solution. By implementing the bypass functionality, we are able to significantly reduce the number of messages processed by the controller as well as the number of flow rules that need to be pushed into the switches. |

| | 1618 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As software defined networks (SDN) grow in size and in number, the problem of coordinating the actions of multiple SDN controllers will grow in importance. In this paper, we propose a way of organizing SDN control based on coordinated subgraph shadowing. Graphs are a natural way to think about and describe SDN activity. Subgraphs provide a means to share a subset of a network's resources. Shadowing provides a means to dynamically update shared subgraphs. Leveraging advances in graph databases and our shadowing messaging technique, we discuss our implementation of a multi-domain virtual private network (VPN) using multi-protocol label switching (MPLS). |

| | 1631 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The architectural simplicity of the core Internet is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, its agnostic nature paved the way for endless innovations of end-to-end applications. On the other hand, the inherent limitation of this simplicity makes it difficult to add new functions to the network core itself. This is exacerbated by the conservative tendency of commercial entities to l̈eave well-enough alone,̈ leading to the current situation often referred to as the ossification of the Internet. For decades, there has been practically no new functionality that has been added to the core Internet on a large scale. This thesis explores the possibility of enabling in-network services towards the goal of overcoming the ossification of the Internet. Our ultimate goal is to provide a common run-time environment supported by all Internet nodes and a wide-area deployment mechanism, so that network services can be freely installed, removed, and migrated among Internet nodes of all kinds–from a backbone router to a set-top box at home. In that vision of a future Internet, there is little difference between servers and routers for the purpose of running network services. Services can run anywhere on the Internet. Application service providers will have the freedom to choose the best place to run their code. This thesis presents NetServ, our first step to realize the vision of network services running anywhere on the Internet. NetServ is a node architecture for dynamically deploying in-network services on edge routers. Network functions and applications are implemented as software modules which can be deployed at any NetServ-enabled node on the Internet, subject to policy restrictions. The NetServ framework provides a common execution environment for service modules and the ability to dynamically install and remove the services without restarting the nodes. There are many challenges in designing such a system. The main contribution of this thesis lies in meeting those challenges. First, we recognize that the primary impetus for adopting new technologies is economics. To address the challenge of providing economic incentives for enabling in-network services, we demonstrate how NetServ can facilitate an economic alliance between content providers and ISPs. Using NetServ, content providers and the ISPs operating at the network edge (aka eyeball ISPs) can enter into a mutually beneficial economic relationship. ISPs make their NetServ-enabled edge routers available for hosting content providers' applications and contents. Content providers can operate closer to end users by deploying code modules on NetServ-enabled edge routers. We make our case by presenting NetServ applications which represent four concrete use cases. Second, our node architecture must support both traditional server applications and in-network packet processing applications since content providers' applications running on ISPs' routers will combine the traits of both. To address this challenge, NetServ framework can host a packet processing module that sits in the data path, a server module that uses the TCP/IP stack in the traditional way, or a combined module that does both. NetServ provides a unified runtime environment between routers and servers, taking us a step closer to the vision of the unified runtime available on all Internet nodes. Third, we must provide a fast and streamlined deployment mechanism. Content providers should be able to deploy their applications at any NetServ-enabled edge router on the Inter- net, given that they have proper authorizations. Moreover, in some application scenarios, content providers may not know the exact locations of the target routers. Content providers need a way to send a message to install or remove an application module towards a network destination, and have the NetServ-enabled routers located in the path catch and act on the message. To address this challenge, we adopted on-path signaling as the deployment mechanism for NetServ. A NetServ signaling message is sent in an IP packet towards a destination. The packet gets forwarded by IP routers as usual, but when it transits a NetServ-enabled router, the message gets intercepted and passed to the NetServ control layer. Fourth, a NetServ-enabled router must support the concurrent executions of multiple without restarting the nodes. There are many challenges in designing such a system. The main contribution of this thesis lies in meeting those challenges. First, we recognize that the primary impetus for adopting new technologies is economics. To address the challenge of providing economic incentives for enabling in-network services, we demonstrate how NetServ can facilitate an economic alliance between content providers and ISPs.

The packet gets forwarded by IP routers as usual, but when it transits a NetServ-enabled router, the message gets intercepted and passed to the NetServ control layer. Fourth, a NetServ-enabled router must support the concurrent executions of multiple content providers' applications. Each content provider's execution environment must be isolated from one another, and the resource usage of each must be controlled. To address the challenge of providing a robust multi-user execution environment, we chose to run NetServ modules in user space. This is in stark contrast to most programmable routers, which run service modules in kernel space for fast packet processing. Furthermore, NetServ modules are written in Java and run in Java Virtual Machines (JVMs). Our choice of user space execution and JVM allows us to leverage the decades of technology advances in operating systems, virtualization, and Java. Lastly, in order to host the services of a large number of content providers, NetServ must be able to scale beyond the single-box architecture. We address this challenge with the multi-box lateral expansion of NetServ using the OpenFlow forwarding engine. In this extended architecture, multiple NetServ nodes are attached to an OpenFlow switch, which provides a physically separate forwarding plane. The scalability of user services is no longer limited to a single NetServ box. Additionally, this thesis presents our prior work on improving service discovery in local and global networks. The service discovery work makes indirect contribution because the limitations of local and overlay networks encountered during those studies eventually led us to investigate in-network services, which resulted in NetServ. Specifically, we investigate the issues involved in bootstrapping large-scale structured overlay networks, present a tool to merge service announcements from multiple local networks, and propose an enhancement to structured overlay networks using link-local multicast. |

| | 1644 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We present NetServ, a node architecture for deploying in-network services in the next generation Internet. NetServ-enabled network nodes provide a common execution environment, where network services implemented as modules can be dynamically installed and removed. We demonstrate three such modules. MicroCDN is a dynamic content distribution network (CDN) service which implements a content caching strategy specific to a content provider. The NAT Keep-alive module offloads the processing of keep-alive messages from SIP servers. The Media Relay module allows any NetServ node to act as a media relay, eliminating the need to manage standalone relay servers. NetServ aims to revive the Active Networking vision. It was too far ahead of its time a decade ago, but we believe its time has finally arrived. |

| | 1657 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The physical and data link layers of the network stack contain valuable information. Unfortunately, a systems programmer would never know. These two layers are often inaccessible in software and much of their potential goes untapped. In this paper we introduce SoNIC, Software-defined Network Interface Card, which provides access to the physical and data link layers in software by implementing them in software. In other words, by implementing the creation of the physical layer bitstream in software and the transmission of this bitstream in hardware, SoNIC provides complete control over the entire network stack in realtime. SoNIC utilizes commodity off-the-shelf multi-core processors to implement parts of the physical layer in software, and employs an FPGA board to transmit optical signal over the wire. Our evaluations demonstrate that SoNIC can communicate with other network components while providing realtime access to the entire network stack in software. As an example of SoNIC's fine-granularity control, it can perform precise network measurements, accurately characterizing network components such as routers, switches, and network interface cards. Further, SoNIC enables timing channels with nanosecond modulations that are undetectable in software. |

| | 1670 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a unique virtual laboratory for at-scale networking experimentation exploring future Internets. The successful development of GENI has to consider security problems from the design and prototyping stages. However, in many cases, system vulnerability cannot be found unless through real experimentation bearing purposeful and meaningful designs. In this paper, we introduce some of our efforts in exploring the security vulnerabilities in ProtoGENI, a prototype implementation and deployment of GENI. Our results show potential breach on security of GENI in terms of availability. We make suggestions on potential defense strategies in order to improve the ProtoGENI security and its development. |

| | 1683 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper we analyze the security architecture of ProtoGENI. ProtoGENI is a prototype control framework implementation of GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovations). We perform a variety of experiments in an effort to identify potential vulnerabilities presented in the current implementation. We classify our attacks into three types: data plane to data plane, data plane to control plane, and data plane to Internet. Our results indicate the potential for a breach of confidentiality and availability internally within ProtoGENI, as well as risks to external Internet. We make suggestions outlining possible defense strategies to improve ProtoGENI security and aid in future development |

| | 1696 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditional discrete-event simulation of large-scale networks at the packet level is computationally expensive. This article presents a fast rate-based transmission control protocol (RTCP) traffic model designed to reduce the time and space complexity for simulating network traffic whilst maintaining good accuracy. A distinct feature of the proposed model is that the transmission control protocol (TCP) congestion control behavior is represented using analytical models that describe the send rate at the traffic source as a function of the round-trip time and the packet loss rate at different phases of a TCP connection. Rather than modeling at the granularity of individual packets visiting the intermediate routers, the model approximates traffic flows as a series of rate windows, each consisting of a number of packets considered to possess the same arrival rate. The model calculates the queuing delays and the packet losses as these rate windows traverse the individual network queues along the flow path. The proposed RTCP model is able to achieve a performance advantage over other TCP models, by integrating analytical solutions and aggregating traffic using rate windows. Empirical results show that the RTCP model can correctly capture the overall TCP behavior and achieve a speedup of more than two orders of magnitude over the corresponding detailed packet-oriented simulation. |

| | 1709 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We propose an in-network caching architecture using Open-Flow to coordinate caching decisions in the network. Our scheme, called CacheFlow, extends the cache-and-forward concept by moving contents closer to the clients hop-by-hop using TCP for sending requests and retrieving contents. As such, CacheFlow can be incrementally implemented and deployed in the real network. In this paper, we present a simulation study of several caching policies, including a random cache policy, a statically optimal cache placement policy and a new disk placement strategy that places popular contents at the c̈enter ̈of the network. Experimental results show that simple in-network caching policies can be realized using today's technology to improve network performance. |

| | 1722 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>PrimoGENI provides a GENI aggregate interface through which experimenters can launch large-scale network experiments on GENI resources consisting of both simulated network and real instances of network applications directly running on either virtual or physical machines. Real network traffic generated by the network applications can be introduced into the simulated network in real time and be subjected to proper delays and losses according to the simulated network conditions. To leverage the previous PrimoGENI prototype activities, PrimoGENI Constellation is a newly launched project, which will focus specifically on facilitating distributed at-scale hybrid experiments for real-world high-impact applications. In this paper, we provide an overview of the major achievements of PrimoGENI, and more importantly, discuss the ongoing efforts in PrimoGENI Constellation aiming to achieve the full potential of the hybrid network experiment approach. The main thrusts of PrimoGENI Constellation include: 1) supporting at-scale network experiments potentially distributed on different types of GENI resources in accordance with the GENI experiment workflow, 2) focusing on target applications supporting prominent and high-impact future Internet research, and 3) building the user community through extensive education and research training, and online archives of experiment results and user experiences. |

| | 1748 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Elastic optical networking (EON), with its flexible use of the optical spectrum, is a promising solution for future metro/core optical networking. For the deployment of EON in a real-operational scenario, the dynamic lightpath restoration, driven by an intelligent control plane, is a necessary network function. Dynamic restoration can restore network services automatically and, thus, greatly reduce the operational cost, compared with traditional manual or semistatic lightpath restoration strategies enabled by network operators via a network management system. To this end, in this paper, we present an OpenFlow-enabled dynamic lightpath restoration in elastic optical networks, detailing the restoration framework and algorithm, the failure isolation mechanism, and the proposed OpenFlow protocol extensions. We quantitatively present the restoration performance via control plane experimental tests on the Global Environment for Network Innovations testbed. |

| | 1774 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization technologies allow service providers to request partitioned, QoS guaranteed and fault-tolerant virtual networks provisioned by the substrate network provider (i.e., physical infrastructure provider). A virtualized networking environment (VNE) has common features such as partition, flexibility, etc., but fault-tolerance requires additional efforts to provide survivability against failures on either virtual networks or the substrate network. Two common survivability paradigms are protection (proactive) and restoration (reactive). In the protection scheme, the substrate network provider (SNP) allocates redundant resources (e.g., nodes, paths, bandwidths, etc) to protect against potential failures in the VNE. In the restoration scheme, the SNP dynamically allocates resources to restore the networks, and it usually occurs after the failure is detected. In this dissertation, we design a restoration scheme that can be dynamically implemented in a centralized manner by an SNP to achieve survivability against node failures in the VNE. The proposed restoration scheme is designed to be integrated with a protection scheme, where the SNP allocates spare virtual routers (VRs) as standbys for the virtual networks (VN) and they are ready to serve in the restoration scheme after a node failure has been identified. These standby virtual routers (S-VR) are reserved as a sharedbackup for any single node failure, and during the restoration procedure, one of the S-VR will be selected to replace the failed VR. In this work, we present an optimal S-VR selection approach to simultaneously restore multiple VNs affected by failed VRs, where these VRs may be affected by failures within themselves or at their substrate host (i.e., power outage, hardware failures, maintenance, etc.). Furthermore, the restoration scheme is embedded into a dynamic reconfiguration scheme (DRS), so that the affected VNs can be dynamically restored by a centralized virtual network manager (VNM). We first introduce a dynamic reconfiguration scheme (DRS) against node failures in a VNE, and then present an experimental study by implementing this DRS over a realistic VNE using GpENI testbed. For this experimental study, we ran the DRS to restore one VN with a single-VR failure, and the results showed that with a proper S-VR selection, the performance of the affected VN could be well restored. Next, we proposed an Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model with dual–goals to optimally select S-VRs to restore all VNs affected by VR failures while load balancing. We also present a heuristic algorithm based on the model. By considering a number of factors, we present numerical studies to show how the optimal selection is affected. The results show that the proposed heuristic's performance is close to the optimization model when there were sufficient standby virtual routers for each virtual network and the substrate nodes have the capability to support multiple standby virtual routers to be in service simultaneously. Finally, we present the design of a software-defined resilient VNE with the optimal S-VR selection model, and discuss a prototype implementation on the GENI testbed. |

| | 1787 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization enables programmability to the substrate network provider who provisions and manages virtual networks (VNs) for service providers. A mix of software-defined and autonomic technology improves the flexibility of network management, including dynamic reconfiguration in the virtualized networking environment (VNE). Virtual router (VR)s run at a logical level where software failures may be more frequent. Thus, a VR failure is more frequent than a physical router failure on the substrate network. In this paper, we present a software-defined resilient virtualized networking environment where a VN topology can be restored by using a preserved standby virtual router (S-VR) after a VR failure. We illustrate a preliminary autonomic setup of a VNE on the GENI testbed. |

| | 1800 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In recent times, the cloud computing based delivery model has been proven to reduce enterprise IT costs and complexities. In contrast to traditional enterprise IT solutions, the cloud computing model moves the application software and data to remote servers in large datacenters, which raises many security challenges. One of the critical challenges is the inability to characterize the impact of the vulnerabilities of routers on the cloud security and performance guarantees. In this paper, we analyze the degree of security provided by routers to data sharing applications deployed in cloud environments that span administrative and network domains. Our analysis is based on examining the security level of network applications on routers which lie between nodes on Planetlab infrastructure. We assume that some of the PlanetLab nodes will share the same wide area network path as the cloud servers. Our preliminary results confirm that the majority of the routers are plagued by insecure network protocols, leading to vulnerable routers. These results confirm our hypothesis that the security of the network infrastructure needs to be upgraded to assure the protection of information exchanged on the wide area network path. |

| | 1813 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Autonomic management capabilities of the Future Internet can be provided through a recently proposed service architecture called NetServ. It consists of the interconnection of programmable nodes which enable dynamic deployment and execution of network and application services. This paper shows how this architecture can be further improved by introducing the OpenFlow architecture and implementing the OpenFlow controller as a NetServ service, thus improving both the NetServ management performance and its flexibility. These achievements are demonstrated experimentally on the GENI environment, showing the platform self-protecting capabilities in case of a SIP DoS attack. |

| | 1826 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The decreasing cost of wireless hardware and ever increasing number of wireless testbeds has led to a shift in the protocol evaluation paradigm from simulations towards emulation. In addition, with a large number of users demanding experimental resources and lack of space and time for deploying more hardware, fair resource sharing among independent co-existing experiments is important. We study the proposed approaches to wireless virtualization with a focus on schemes conserving wireless channels rather than nodes. Our detailed comparison reveals that while experiments sharing a channel by space separation achieve better efficiency than those relying on time separation of a channel, the isolation between experiments in both cases is comparable. We propose and implement a policy manager to alleviate the isolation problem and suggest scenarios in which either of the schemes would provide a suitable virtualization solution. |

| | 1839 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As networking research expands into new frontiers, the research community has felt a need for a heterogeneous networking research infrastructure to experiment with the interaction and integration of different types of networks, and to test the performance of various networking protocols in realistic environments. This requirement has led to the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) initiative to create a global infrastructure for conducting networking experiments across diverse substrates such as wired (local and wide-area), wireless, sensor and cellular networks. In this paper, we discuss and present two models for building such an experimental infrastructure. The first model enables a wired testbed to link with wireless edge nodes during an experiment, whereas the second model enables a wireless testbed to link to wired testbeds. Proof-of-concept experiments are also presented reinforcing the usefulness of the models in terms of facilitating experiments over the integrated heterogeneous infrastructure. |

| | 1852 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The new software defined networking (SDN) paradigm advocates separating the data plane and the control plane, making network switches simple packet forwarding devices and leaving a logically-centralized software to control the behavior of the network. SDN introduces new possibilities for a centralized network management and configuration. The main benefit is having the programmability of the forwarding tables according to the needs of the applications. Therefore, efficient and effective management of network resources becomes even more crucial in providing effective control plane functionality to the applications. OpenFlow standardization efforts at the Open Networking Foundation resulted in an OpenFlow Configuration (OFConfig) specification to address the management of resources in networks with OpenFlow-enabled switches. We report the implementation of an intuitively easy to use interface for the OpenFlow-capable logical devices as managed resources in a SDN. |

| | 1865 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-Defined-Networking (SDN) is quickly transforming the networking landscape. Programmable networking based on many types of virtualization techniques, including SDN, enable high levels of abstraction for network services, control and management functions, and underlying technology resources. These approaches enable network designers to create a much wider range of services and capability, including through Software Defined Networking Exchanges (SDXs) than can be provided with traditional networks and exchange facilities, enabling a) many more dynamic provisioning options, including in real time b) faster implementation of new and enhanced services c) enabling applications, edge processes and even individuals to directly control core resources; e) substantially improved options for creating customizable networks and e) enhanced operational efficiency and effectiveness. In addition, these capabilities are now being extended to other types of Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI), including clouds, compute grids, storage devices, instruments, and many other types of edge devices. |

| | 1878 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networks (SDNs), primarily based on OpenFlow, are being deployed in single domain networks around the world. The popularity of SDNs has given rise to multiple considerations about designing, implementing, and operating Software-Defined Network Exchanges (SDXs), to enable SDNs to interconnect SDN islands and to extend SDNs across multiple domains. These goals can be accomplished only by developing new techniques that extend the single domain orientation of current SDN/OpenFlow approaches to include capabilities for multidomain control, including those for resource discovery, signaling, and dynamic provisioning. Several networking research communities have begun to investigate these concepts. Early architectural models of SDXs have been designed and implemented as prototypes. These SDXs are being used to conduct experiments and to demonstrate the potentials of SDXs. |

However, while such testbeds are valuable resources for the research process, these facilities alone cannot provide an appropriate approximation of the real world conditions required to explore ideas at scale. Very large scale global, experimental network research capabilities are required to deeply investigate innovative concepts. For many years, network testbeds were created to address fairly specific, well defined, limited research goals, and they were implemented for fairly short periods. Recently, taking advantage of a number of macro information technology trends, such as virtualization and programmable resources, several network research communities have been developing innovative types of network research environments. Instead of designing traditional network testbeds, research communities are designing large scale, highly flexible distributed platforms that can be used to create many different types of testbeds. Also, rather than creating short term testbeds for limited research objectives, these new environments are being designed as long term persistent resources to support many types of experimental research. This paper describes the motivations for this trend, provides several examples of large scale distributed network research environments based on the Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF) and the StarLight Exchange Facility, including the Global Environment for Network Innovation (GENI), and indicates emerging future trends for these types of environments. |

| | 1902 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we present our ongoing work on a novel use of networked cloud infrastructures like GENI for running adaptive domain science applications. We specifically report our recent experience at the SC'13 conference with showcasing a dynamically adaptable cloud infrastructure driven by the demand of a data-driven scientific workflow. Our work used resources from ExoGENI - a Networked Infrastructure-as-a-Service (NIaaS) testbed funded through NSF's Global Environment for Network Innovation (GENI) project. We used on-ramps to compute and data resources in the RENCI SC'13 booth to a large dynamically provisioned 'slice' spanning multiple ExoGENI cloud sites that were interconnected using dynamically provisioned connections from Internet2, NLR and ESnet. The slice was used to execute a scientific workflow driven from a computer in the RENCI SC'13 booth connected to the slice via SCinet. A closed-loop control mechanism leveraging a monitoring infrastructure based on persistent queries adapted the slice to the demands of the workflow as it executed. |

| | 1928 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a performance evaluation of scientific workflows on networked cloud systems with particular emphasis on evaluating the effect of provisioned network bandwidth on application I/O performance. The experiments were run on ExoGENI, a widely distributed networked infrastructure as a service (NIaaS) testbed. ExoGENI orchestrates a federation of independent cloud sites located around the world along with backbone circuit providers. The evaluation used a representative data-intensive scientific workflow application called Montage. The application was deployed on a virtualized HTCondor environment provisioned dynamically from the ExoGENI networked cloud testbed, and managed by the Pegasus workflow manager. The results of our experiments show the effect of modifying provisioned network bandwidth on disk I/O throughput and workflow execution time. The marginal benefit as perceived by the workflow reduces as the network bandwidth allocation increases to a point where disk I/O saturates. There is little or no benefit from increasing network bandwidth beyond this inflection point. The results also underline the importance of network and I/O performance isolation for predictable application performance, and are applicable for general data-intensive workloads. Insights from this work will also be useful for real-time monitoring, application steering and infrastructure planning for data-intensive workloads on networked cloud platforms. |

| | 1941 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Single System Image (SSI) clustering technology hides the distributed nature of the participating resources, and makes them appear as a single homogeneous computing resource to the user. An SSI cluster can utilize all the available processing power and memory from its participating resources. However, using the current implementations, an SSI can only be formed using nodes which are within one-hop distance of each other. This implies that nodes have to be within the same broadcast domain / Local Area Network (LAN) in order to participate in an SSI cluster. This limits the full potential of SSIs. In this research, we propose enhancements to the existing SSI technology to overcome the one-hop limitation, thus enabling nodes over a WAN to form SSI clusters. GENI provides a perfect platform for such experimentation. In this paper, we report our initial success in enabling Transparent Interprocess Communication Protocol (TIPC) over wide area nodes in GENI and progress in backporting the TIPC 2.0 protocol, with support for communication over WANs, to Kerrighed, an open-source software for creating SSIs. |

| | 1954 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud computing enables users to get access to huge amounts of computing resources as desired. There are many popular commercial cloud service providers which provide resources to users at a price. These providers can not be trusted as far as privacy of data is concerned. On the other hand, people do trust their close friends, relatives and other social contacts, albeit, to varying degrees. This paper reports the work-in-progress on S3I(Socially Aware Single System Images) which allows users to form computing clusters using resources owned by their social contacts. It tries to utilize the trust found between people in real life and translate it to provide trustworthy resource sharing between them. |

| | 1967 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Wireless networking has recently gained tremendous attention in research and education. Since the concepts taught in wireless courses are difficult to acquire only through lectures, hands-on lab experience is indispensable. While Wi-Fi based networking labs have been introduced before, to the best of our knowledge, labs that use a cellular technology have not been designed yet. Therefore, we present a WiMAX hands-on lab designed for a graduate course in wireless and mobile networking. The lab is based on the mobile WiMAX hardware and software developed and deployed within the GENI WiMAX project. We provide a brief overview of the course and of the main concepts taught in the WiMAX lecture. Then, we describe in detail our WiMAX network and the structure of the lab experiment. The effectiveness in achieving the learning objectives is evaluated via the lab reports submitted by the students. Finally, we review some of the lessons we learned during design and implementation of this lab. These can provide important insights to designers of similar labs. |

| | 1980 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The IEEE 802.16 standard (WiMAX) is an important next-generation networking technology which promises highspeed network access for both mobile and fixed users. In this paper we present a method to estimate link quality for devices connected to Temple University's WiMAX network as they traverse both the main campus and the city of Philadelphia via foot and motor vehicle. This is accomplished by first measuring receive signal strength indicator (RSSI), carrier to interference plus noise ratio (CINR), and bandwidth. After capturing these values, we then analyze the data to provide an estimation of the actual system rate. We then present an approach to predict future states of link quality both while stationary at Temple and when traversing Philadelphia via bus. |

| | 1993 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Host virtualization allows data centers to live migrate an entire virtual Machine (VM) to support data center maintenance, disaster avoidance and workload balancing. Live VM Migration can consume nearly the entire bandwidth for memory intensive applications which impacts the performance of competing flows in the network. A network-aware VM Migration operation ensures a fair share allocation of network resources, leading to a seamless Virtual Machine mobility while minimizing degradation of network performance. Recently, VMPatrol was proposed as a network aware VM Migration model which uses a single physical machine and QoS policies to simulate and implement a cost of migration model. However, the performance evaluation of VMPatrol was conducted in an emulated environment. In this paper, we empirically evaluate the performance of VMPatrol in an experimental GENI testbed characterized by wide-area network dynamics and realistic traffic scenarios. We deploy OpenFlow end to end QoS policies to reserve minimum bandwidths required for successful VM Migration. Preliminary results demonstrate that enforcing QoS policies in terms of bandwidth reservation relieves the network of possible overloads during migration. The results indicate that time taken to complete VM Migration depends on VM's memory size, VM page dirty rate and the available bandwidth. The results also indicate that length of stop copy phase and minimum required progress amount are critical parameters in estimating the VM migration cost. |

| | 2006 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Location aware applications can benefit from a more accurate yet robust IP geolocation framework. Various approaches to IP geolocation have been well documented. The most recent approach casts IP geolocation as a machine learn- ing classification problem. This approach makes it possible to incorporate both delay and non delay based information. The accuracy of IP geolocation can be improved by incorporating additional types of geolocation information rather relying on network delay alone. To enhance the classification accuracy of the existing classification framework, we expand it to include 6 features (3 of which are novel). We use PlanetLab as a testbed to generate our measurement set. We select 67 PlanetLab nodes within the United States with known geographic location as our landmarks. We test the accuracy of our framework on 23,843 routers given ping measurements from the 67 landmarks. With only three features (average delay, average hops and population density) tested, our new classifier gives a reduced average error distance of 157.81 miles and a median error distance of 0 miles, compared to the present classifier that gives an average error distance of 253.34 miles. This is very promising as we move on to the next phase of incorporating data for the remaining 5 features. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first proposed framework that aims to improve the accuracy of the present classifier based IP geolocation. |

| | 2019 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This whitepaper proposes OpenFlow: a way for researchers to run experimental protocols in the networks they use every day. OpenFlow is based on an Ethernet switch, with an internal flow-table, and a standardized interface to add and remove flow entries. Our goal is to encourage networking vendors to add OpenFlow to their switch products for deployment in college campus backbones and wiring closets. We believe that OpenFlow is a pragmatic compromise: on one hand, it allows researchers to run experiments on heterogeneous switches in a uniform way at line-rate and with high port-density; while on the other hand, vendors do not need to expose the internal workings of their switches. In addition to allowing researchers to evaluate their ideas in real-world traffic settings, OpenFlow could serve as a useful campus component in proposed large-scale testbeds like GENI. Two buildings at Stanford University will soon run OpenFlow networks, using commercial Ethernet switches and routers. We will work to encourage deployment at other schools; and We encourage you to consider deploying OpenFlow in your university network too. |

GENI infrastructure presents a testbed to deploy large scale network experiments, however, non-IP protocols still raises a challenge to deploy since IP is the narrow waist of the Internet. SDN provides an opportunity implement non-IP protocols, however, the OpenFlow standard is still tied to Ethernet/IP/TCP protocol stack. In the paper, we utilize SDN to provide a framework to deploy and test a non-IP protocol, Virtual Id Routing (VIRO), in GENI using an extended Open vSwitch platform. |

| | 2071 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A steady rise in home systems has been seen over the past few years. As more systems are designed and deployed, an appropriate testbed is required to test these systems. Sev- eral systems exist, such as PlanetLab, that currently provide a networking testbed allowing researchers and developers to test and measure various applications. However in the long run such testbeds will be unable to keep up and meet all the demands of many of the large scale modern day peer-to-peer systems. We outline the various challenges and essentials of a networking testbed and we provide an alternate network- ing testbed that is driven by resources that are voluntarily contributed. We talk about the various advantages and dis- advantages of the Seattle system, an open source peer-to- peer computing testbed that has the potential to meet these demands. The testbed is composed of sandboxed resources that are donated by volunteers. Seattle has been deployed for about three years and supports many researchers who are interested in a networking testbed. The testbed consists of over 4100 nodes and is constantly growing. Seattle looks to grow and meet the demands of networking testbeds as they are made. |

The recent transition of the Internet from the fixed host-server model to one in which mobile platforms are the norm motivates a next-generation protocol architecture which provides integrated and efficient support for advanced mobility services. Key wireless access and mobility usage scenarios are identified including host mobility, multihoming, vehicular access and context addressability, and key protocol support requirements are identified in each case. The MobilityFirst (MF) architecture being developed under the National Science Foundation's future Internet Architecture (FIA) program is proposed as a possible realization that meets the identified requirements. MF protocol specifics are given for each wireless/mobile use case, along with sample evaluation results demonstrating achievable performance benefits. |

| | 2110 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined networking and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) have simplified the coordination efforts for ” service chaining.” Consequently, network services such as firewall, load balancing, etc. may be service chained in the forwarding (data) plane for specific applications and/or traffic. A specific case is for the firewall rules that depend on deep packet inspection for application identification. If a particular application is identified and is ” safe,” would it be worthwhile to program the data plane to bypass the FW for the duration of the application session? For such a traffic-steering case, we report measurement challenges on various setups and the related cost analysis based on the network delay. Measurements of the network and processing delay have been performed with virtualized resources, on GENI testbed, and with isolated hardware units. Experiences are also reported on how a commercial firewall virtual appliance has been deployed on the GENI testbed for experimentation. The results illustrate the measurement uncertainties and challenges for DPI-based traffic steering in virtualized environments. In addition, we show that such a service chaining may increase throughput and relieve DPI-based processing overhead on firewall units. |

| | 2136 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Motivated by limitations in today's host-centric IP network, recent studies have proposed clean-slate network architectures centered around alternate first-class principals, such as content, services, or users. However, muchlike the host-centric IP design, elevating one principal type above others hinders communication between other principals and inhibits the network's capability to evolve. This paper presents the eXpressive Internet Architecture (XIA), an architecture with native support for multiple principals and the ability to evolve its functionality to accommodate new, as yet unforeseen, principals over time. We present the results of our ongoing research motivated by and building on the XIA architecture, ranging from topics at the physical level (``how fast can XIA go'') up through to the user level. |

| | 2149 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Clean slate future Internet initiatives have been ongoing for a few years. An important consideration in the eventual deployment of solutions for such Internet architectures is the testing and validation of the design and its scalability in realistic network environments. Large scale emulation and experimentation testbeds sponsored and funded by major research organizations worldwide provide a suitable platform for the purpose. In this article, we present the implementation details of a new network and routing protocol that entirely replaces IP and its routing protocols from the protocol stack to provide efficient routing and forwarding of packets in a clean slate Floating Cloud Tiered (FCT) Internet architecture. The FCT architecture leverages the tier structure existing among ISPs, and has a new addressing and routing schema based on tiers. In this article, the implementation and evaluation details of the network protocol with these two features, namely the tiered addressing and tier-based routing using the Global Environmental for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed are presented. The performance of the protocol is also compared with Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) implemented over the GENI testbed for identical network topologies. |

| | 2162 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Repeatability of network experiments has long been a goal for networking researchers but the lack of a scientific process of experimentation has made this exercise difficult to achieve. In this paper, we demonstrate that, if conducted in a scientific manner, experiments can indeed be repeated in different networks to produce the same results. We ran experiments in our lab, and on two different network configurations in ProtoGENI and demonstrated that we get similar results for network and application performance evaluations. We believe that this is an important step as we take the process of measurement-based networking research from its ad hoc phase into the realm of a scientific process. We also present these experiments using GENI infrastructure as a demonstration for other experimenters to run similar realistic experiments on GENI testbeds. Furthermore, we believe this is the first set of experiments to emulate per-connection Round- Trip-Times in GENI-based experiments. |

| | 2188 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are major security threats to the Internet. The distributed structure of these attacks makes it difficult to distinguish between legitimate and attack traffic, making detection difficult. In addition to this challenge, researchers also have to study and find countermeasures against these attacks without using an operational network for testing, since attacks on operational networks inconvenience users. In this paper, we propose a method to perform DDoS analysis on real hardware using real traffic without jeopardizing the original network. We implement our experiments on the Geni testbed using Openflow. We present results from DDoS detection methods using operational traffic. |

| | 2199 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>To design secure systems, one needs to understand how attackers use system vulnerabilities in their favor. This requires testing vulnerabilities on operational systems. However, working on operational systems is not always possible because of the risk of disturbance. In this study, we introduce an approach to experimenting using operational system data and performing real attacks without disturbing the original system. We applied this approach to a network security experiment and tested the performance of three detection methods. The approach used in this study can be used when developing systems with Designed-in Security to identify and test system vulnerabilities. |

| | 2210 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Computers and Internet have evolved into necessary tools for our professional, personal and social lives. As a result of this growing dependence, there is a concern that these systems remain protected and available. This concern increases exponentially when considering systems such as smart power grids. Therefore, research should be conducted to develop effective ways of detecting system anomalies. To have realistic results, the studies should be tested on real systems. However, it is not possible to test these experiments on the live network. With the recent collaboration of Universities and research labs, a new experiment test bed has been established. As a result, experiments can now be implemented on real networks. In our study, we design an experiment to analyze Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS Attack) on a real network with real Internet traffic. The approach that we use in our study can easily be generalized to apply to smart power grids. |

| | 2223 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>User communities are rapidly transitioning their ” traditional desktops” that have dedicated hardware and software installations into ” virtual desktop clouds” (VDCs) that are accessible via thin-clients. To allocate and manage VDC resources for Internet-scale desktop delivery, existing work focuses mainly on managing server-side resources based on utility functions of CPU and memory loads, and do not consider network health and thin-client user experience. Resource allocations without combined utility-directed information of system loads, network health and thin-client user experience in VDC platforms inevitably results in costly guesswork and overprovisioning of resources. In this thesis, an analytical model i.e., ” Utility-Directed Resource Allocation Model (U-RAM)” is presented to solve the combined utility-directed resource allocation problem within VDCs. The solution uses an iterative algorithm that leverages utility functions of system, network and human components obtained using a novel virtual desktop performance benchmarking toolkit i.e., ” VDBench”. The combined utility functions are used to direct decision schemes based on Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions for creating user desktop pools and determining optimal resource allocation size/location. U-RAM is evaluated in a VDC testbed featuring: (a) popular user applications (Spreadsheet Calculator, Internet Browser, Media Player, Interactive Visualization), and (b) TCP/UDP based thin-client protocols (RDP, RGS, PCoIP) under a variety of user load and network health conditions. Evaluation results demonstrate that U-RAM solution maximizes VDC scalability i.e., 'VDs per core density', and 'user connections quantity', while delivering satisfactory thin-client user experience. |

| | 2249 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A longstanding problem with the Internet is that it is vulnerable to outages, black holes, hijacking and denial of service. Although architectural solutions have been proposed to address many of these issues, they have had difficulty being adopted due to the need for widespread adoption before most users would see any benefit. This is especially relevant as the Internet is increasingly used for applications where correct and continuous operation is essential. In this paper, we study whether a simple, easy to implement model is sufficient for addressing the aforementioned Internet vulnerabilities. Our model, called ARROW (Advertised Reliable Routing Over Waypoints), is designed to allow users to configure reliable and secure end to end paths through participating providers. With ARROW, a highly reliable ISP offers tunneled transit through its network, along with packet transformation at the ingress, as a service to remote paying customers. Those customers can stitch together reliable end to end paths through a combination of participating and non-participating ISPs in order to improve the fault-tolerance, robustness, and security of mission critical transmissions. Unlike efforts to redesign the Internet from scratch, we show that ARROW can address a set of well-known Internet vulnerabilities, for most users, with the adoption of only a single transit ISP. To demonstrate ARROW, we have added it to a small-scale wide-area ISP we control. We evaluate its performance and failure recovery properties in both simulation and live settings. |

| | 2262 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Companies, government organizations or institutions from anywhere in the world publish different types of information e.g. news, health alerts, disaster warnings at any time. Rather than consuming all published data, users only desire access to information of interest to themselves irrespective of where the data is located and who publish them. Existing publish/subscribe systems built based on IP-based network can be inefficient and are not flexible enough to meet emerging requirements e.g. deal with mobile users, dynamic contents, searching over encrypted data. Recently content-centric networks have been proposed to provide flexibility to users to access such information. We have designed secure content centric mobile networks that allow users to publish and retrieve contents securely. As with any new architecture, one important issue is to have useful applications that can utilize features provided in the new architecture. In this paper, we describe an Android application we recently developed that allows visitors to explore Lehigh campus based on their expressed interests. Our application utilizes keyword based interest messages to retrieve matching data items of interests to a user. We are giving a demo of Lehigh Explorer at GEC13. |

| | 2275 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Recently, many schemes have been proposed for detecting and healing coverage holes to achieve full coverage in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, none of these schemes aim to find the shortest node movement paths to heal the coverage holes, which could significantly reduce energy usage for node movement. Also, current hole healing schemes require accurate knowledge of sensor locations; obtaining this knowledge consumes high energy. In this paper, we propose a Delaunay-based coordinate-free mechanism (DECM) for full coverage. Based on rigorous mathematical analysis, DECM can detect coverage holes and find the locally shortest paths for healing holes in a distributed manner without requiring accurate node location information. Also, DECM incorporates a cooperative movement mechanism that can prevent generating new holes during node movements in healing holes. Simulation results and experimental results from the real-world GENI Orbit testbed show that DECM achieves superior performance in terms of the energy-efficiency, effectiveness of hole healing, energy consumption balance and lifetime compared to previous schemes. |

| | 2301 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Popular applications such as email, photo/video galleries, and file storage are increasingly being supported by cloud platforms in residential, academia and industry communities. The next frontier for these user communities will be to transition `traditional desktops' that have dedicated hardware and software configurations into `virtual desktop clouds' that are accessible via thin-clients. In this paper, we describe an Intelligent resource placement framework for thin-client based virtual desktops. The framework leverages principles of software defined networking and features a `unified resource broker' that uses special `marker packets' for: (a) ” route setup” when handling non-IP traffic between thin-client sites and data centers, (b) ” path selection” and ” load balancing” of virtual desktop flows to improve performance of interactive applications and video playback, and to cope with faults such as link-failures or Denial of Service cyber-attacks. The Framework has the ability to provisioning OpenFlow paths with less Service Response times for VD Requests. Our Framework In addition, we detail our framework implementation within a virtual desktop cloud (VDC) setup in a multi-domain Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) Future Internet testbed spanning backbone and access networks with a automation and centralized control using a tool called VDC-Sim. We present empirical results from our experimentation that leverages OpenFlow programmable networking, as well as cross-traffic capabilities for validating our framework in GENI under realistic settings. Our results demonstrate the importance of scheduling regulated measurements that can be used for intelligent resource placement decisions. Our results also show the feasibility and benefits of using OpenFlow controller applications for path selection and load balancing between thin-client sites and data centers in VDCs. The thesis also shows how our OpenFlow Framework can used for other cloud applications using GridFTP application over WAN as a Case Study. |

| | 2314 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The ability to repeat the experiments from a research study and obtain similar results is a corner stone in experiment-based scientific discovery. This essential feature has been often ignored by the distributed computing and networking community. There are many reasons for that, such as the complexity of provisioning, configuring, and orchestrating the resources used by experiments, their multiple external dependencies, and the difficulty to seamlessly record these dependencies. This paper describes a methodology based on well-established principles to plan, prepare and execute experiments. We propose and describe a family of tools, the LabWiki workspace, to support an experimenter's workflow based on that methodology. This proposed workspace provides services and mechanisms for each step of an experiment-based study, while automatically capturing the necessary information to allow others to repeat, inspect, validate and modify prior experiments. Our LabWiki workspace builds on existing contributions, and de-facto protocol and model standards, which emerged from recent experimental facility initiatives. We use a real experiment as a thread to guide and illustrate the discussion throughout this paper. |

| | 2327 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Advances in the field of cloud computing and networking have led to rapid development and market growth in areas such as online retail, gaming and healthcare. In the field of advanced manufacturing however, the impact has been significantly lesser than expected due to limitations in cloud platforms for fostering community engagement. To address this problem, we study a new cloud-based architecture that provides Platform-asa-Service (PaaS) management capabilities to the manufacturing community for delivering Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ” Apps” to their customers. Our architecture aims at supporting an ” App Marketplace” that thrives on agile development, organic collaboration and scalable sales of next generation manufacturing Apps requiring high-performance simulation and modeling. Towards realizing the vision of the above architecture, our paper involves investigation and implementation of an Ontology Service that interoperates with other common web services related to resource brokering and accounting. Our Ontology Service uses principles of mapping and merging to translate a manufacturing App's collaboration requirements to suitable resource specifications on public cloud platforms. Integrated resultant ontology can be queried to provision the required resource parameters such as amount of memory/storage, number of processing units, and network protocol configurations needed for deployment of an App. We validate the effectiveness of our Ontology Service using the Protégé framework in a pilot testbed of a real-world ” WheelSim” App in the NSF GENI Cloud platform. Our ontology integration results show benefits to an App developer in terms of: optimal user experience, lower design time and lower cost/simulation. |

| | 2340 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper we report the results of a qualitative research study of the GENI cyberinfrastructure: a program of four federated cyberinfrastructures. Drawing on theories of stakeholder positioning, we examine how different GENI stakeholders attempt to enlist new participants in the cyberinfrastructures of GENI, and leverage existing relationships to create sustainable infrastructure. This study contributes to our understanding of how cyberinfrastructures emerge over time through processes of stakeholder alignment, enrollment, and through synergies among stakeholder groups. We explore these issues to better understand how cyberinfrastructures can be designed to sustain over time. |

| | 2353 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Information-centric networks (ICNs) replace IP addresses with content names at the thin waist of the Internet hourglass, thereby enabling pervasive router-level caching at the network layer. In this paper, we revisit pervasive content caching and propose an algorithm for cache replacement at ICN routers by incorporating principles from network cod- ing, a technique used to achieve maximum flow rates in multicast. By introducing a low computational cost in the system, network-coded caching better utilizes the available small storage space at the routers to cache more effectively in the network. Results of our experiments on the global enterprise for network innovations (GENI) testbed demon- strating the performance of our algorithm on a real network are included in the paper. We evaluate the algorithm in two different traffic scenarios (i) video-on-demand (VoD) (ii) Zipf-based web traffic. Working with the named data networking implementation of ICN, we also present the addi- tional headers and logical components that are needed to enable network-coded caching. In a nutshell, we show that an integrated coding-and-caching strategy can provide sig- nificant gains in latency and content delivery rate for a small computational overhead. |

| | 2366 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents an overview of the MobilityFirst network architecture, currently under development as part of the US National Science Foundation's Future Internet Architecture (FIA) program. The proposed architecture is intended to directly address the challenges of wireless access and mobility at scale, while also providing new services needed for emerging mobile Internet application scenarios. After briefly outlining the original design goals of the project, we provide a discussion of the main architectural concepts behind the network design, identifying key features such as separation of names from addresses, public-key based globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) for named objects, global name resolution service (GNRS) for dynamic binding of names to addresses, storage-aware routing and late binding, content- and context-aware services, optional in-network compute layer, and so on. This is followed by a brief description of the MobilityFirst protocol stack as a whole, along with an explanation of how the protocol works at end-user devices and inside network routers. Example of specific advanced services supported by the protocol stack, including multi-homing, mobility with disconnection, and content retrieval/caching are given for illustration. Further design details of two key protocol components, the GNRS name resolution service and the GSTAR routing protocol, are also described along with sample results from evaluation. In conclusion, a brief description of an ongoing multi-site experimental proof-of-concept deployment of the MobilityFirst protocol stack on the GENI testbed is provided. |

| | 2379 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>US Ignite is organizing what will eventually become 200 testbeds for next-generation applications in the United States. Twenty-eight testbeds are currently in various stages of operation. Most testbeds have gigabit to the end user capability including homes and small businesses. Both wired (fiber) and wireless cities are represented. The three salient advantages of these testbeds are their (1) applicability for big data (and big video) applications upstream and downstream, (2) ability to provide low-latency access to edge or local cloud (locavore) infrastructure for ultra-responsive and powerful applications, and (3) capacity for enough physical bandwidth to allow for virtualized channels carrying new services under new business models. |

| | 2392 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Researchers and practitioners are flush with ideas for tomorrow's cloud architectures. Their proposals range from small extensions of today's popular cloud-software stacks to all-new architectures that address mobility, energy efficiency, security and privacy, spe- cific workloads, the Internet of Things, and on and on. Many of the ideas that drive modern clouds, such as virtualization, network slicing, and robust distributed storage arose from the research community. However, today's clouds have become unsuitable for moving this research agenda forward: they have specific, unmalleable implementations of the core tech- nologies ” baked in.” To support next-generation cloud research, the community needs infrastructure that is built to support research into a wide variety of cloud architectures. CloudLab is a new, large-scale, diverse, and distributed infrastructure designed to address this need. CloudLab is not itself a cloud. Rather, it is a substrate on which researchers can build their own clouds and experi- ment with them in an environment that provides a high degree of realism. |

| | 2405 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Testbeds play a key role in the advancement of network science and the exploration of new network architectures. Because the scale and scope of any individual testbed is necessarily limited, federation is a useful technique for constructing testbeds that serve a wide range of experimenter needs. In a federated testbed, individual facilities maintain local autonomy while cooperating to provide a unified set of abstractions and interfaces to users. Forming an international federation is particularly challenging, because issues of trust, user access policy, and local laws and regulations are of greater concern that they are for federations within a single country. In this paper, we describe an architecture, based on the US National Science Foundation's GENI project, that is capable of supporting the needs of an international federation. |

| | 2418 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Repeating research in computer science requires more than just code and data: it requires an appropriate environment in which to run experiments. In some cases, this environment appears fairly straightforward: it consists of a particular operating system and set of required libraries. In many cases, however, it is considerably more complex: the execution environment may be an entire network, may involve complex and fragile configuration of the dependencies, or may require large amounts of resources in terms of computation cycles, network bandwidth, or storage. Even the s̈traightforward ̈case turns out to be surprisingly intricate: there may be explicit or hidden dependencies on compilers, kernel quirks, details of the ISA, etc. The result is that when one tries to repeat published results, creating an environment sufficiently similar to one in which the experiment was originally run can be troublesome; this problem only gets worse as time passes. What the computer science community needs, then, are environments that have the explicit goal of enabling repeatable research. This paper outlines the problem of repeatable research environments, presents a set of requirements for such environments, and describes one facility that attempts to address them. |

| | 2431 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation is an invaluable part of learning in all sciences. However, building and maintaining laboratories is expensive, time and space consuming. Moreover, in computer science advances in technology can quickly make the infrastructure obsolete. In this paper we advocate the use of recently deployed public testbeds as remote labs for computer science education. As an example we describe the successful use of the GENI testbed in graduate and undergraduate courses and present a specific case study of GENI being used in an undergraduate class on Network Management and Intelligent Networks. |

| | 2457 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networks make it possible to decouple routing from forwarding, allowing the routing decisions to be made by a (logically)centralized controller which are then communicated to the switches in the network (for example, via the Open Flow protocol). One problem facing end users is the need to map high level abstractions -- like the path a flow should take -- to a set of low level forwarding rules tailored to, and installed at, every switch along the path. Installing such rules manually is tedious and error prone, and writing a controller program to do it is equally, if not more, challenging. In this paper, we propose a new set of tools that allow users (experimenters)to easily map their high level routing policies to low level Open Flow rules, and to help users reverse engineer high level policies from the installed set of low level flow rules. The tools provide users with the abstraction of end-to-end flows that users can install, list, and delete. The tools automatically handle the details of computing and installing all the rules needed to implement end-to-end flows, and are also capable of identifying flows and, if desired, removing flows that already exist. The tools have been implemented as modules in the GENI Desktop providing users with a graphical interface to their flows. In addition, we have implemented a module to monitor the performance of flows that have been installed. We describe our prototype implementation and present performance numbers obtained via the service. |

| | 2470 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GpENI is evolving to provide a promising environment in which to do experimental research in the resilience and survivability of future networks, by allowing programmable control over topology and mechanism, while providing the scale and global reach needed to conduct network experiments far beyond the capabilities of a conventional testbed. Addressing this need at scale introduces a number of challenges both in deployment and in collecting results that can be directly compared to simulation results for cross-verification purposes. In this short paper we present the scope, design goals, challenges, and current status of the GpENI programmable testbed, as well as an overview and examples of the types of experiments we are beginning to run. |

| | 2483 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In today's world, transmitting data across large bandwidth-delay product (BDP) networks requires special configuration on end users' machines in order to be done efficiently. This added level of complexity creates extra cost and is usually overlooked by users unknowledgeable to the issues. This is one example problem which can be ameliorated with the emerging software defined networking (SDN) paradigm. In an SDN, packet forwarding is controlled via software controllers. In an OpenFlow SDN, a controller can control the forwarding, rewriting, and dropping of packets based on their header attributes. The ability to handle packets in customizable ways in software has significant implications for both users and operators of the network. Via SDN, network providers can easily provide services to enhance users' experience of the network. Steroid OpenFlow Service (SOS) is presented as a solution to seamless enhancement of TCP data transfer throughput over large BDP networks without any modification to the software and configurations on users' machines. SOS utilizes OpenFlow to redirect application specific traffic to application specific service agents. SOS uses service agents on both ends of the connection to seamlessly terminate a user's TCP connection, launch a set of parallel TCP connections, and leverage multiple paths when available to maximize throughput. |

In an OpenFlow SDN, a controller can control the forwarding, rewriting, and dropping of packets based on their header attributes. The ability to handle packets in customizable ways in software has significant implications for both network users and operators. Via software, users can convey application specific expectations while operators can deliver application specific services to enhance user experiences. In this paper, we present the Steroid OpenFlow Services (SOS) paradigm for network services delivery. The paradigm enables operators to deliver network services without any setup requirements on user machines. SOS utilizes OpenFlow to redirect application specific traffic to application specific service agents; SOS also rewrites packet headers for a service to remain seamless to users. This paper presents an example SOS service for optimizing large volume TCP download across a large delay-bandwidth-product wide area network. SOS service agents on both ends of the connection seamlessly terminate a user TCP connection, launch a set of parallel TCP connections, and leverage multiple paths when available to maximize throughput. With the NSF GENI future Internet testbed, a prototype implementation achieved up to 320 times throughput enhancement seamless to the end users. |

| | 2509 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Multi-tenant cloud infrastructures are increasingly used for high-performance and high-throughput domain science applications. In recent years, machine virtualization has come a long way toward supporting domain science applications. Various cloud platforms, such as Open Stack, Cloud Stack, and Amazon EC2 are attracting scientists to these platforms with the promise of customized environments with virtually infinite compute resources. At the same time, research efforts, such as NSF GENI are bringing together cloud computing with advanced network infrastructure provisioning. This paper presents work toward evaluating the use of GENI to support domain science applications. The evaluation involved two different domain science applications deployed on ExoGENI and Insta GENI. The first application is ADCIRC, a storm surge model that uses Message Passing Interface (MPI). The second is Motif network, a genomics application using the Pegasus workflow management system to manage a large data-intensive workflow. |

| | 2522 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Multi-tenant cloud infrastructures are increasingly used for high-performance and high-throughput domain science applications. Various cloud platforms, such as OpenStack and Amazon EC2, along with research efforts, such as NSF GENI and FutureGrid have attracted scientists to these platforms with the promise of virtually infinite compute resources. This paper presents work toward providing better resource allocation accounting in multi-tenant cloud environments by understanding the subtle interference between network, compute, and storage resources. The experiments provide insight that help cloud administrators know how to best distribute virtual cores to physical cores considering the effect of advanced virtual network technologies on remote block I/O performance. The results show that SR-IOV network interfaces to an SSD iSCSI device can provide extremely fast block I/O with minimal CPU overhead and minimal performance interference between tenants. In addition, careful mapping of virtual computation to physical computational cores is critical to increasing performance isolation. |

| | 2535 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Internet routing suffers from persistent and transient failures, circuitous routes, oscillations, and prefix hijacks. A major impediment to progress is the lack of ways to conduct impactful interdomain research. Most research is based either on passive observation of existing routes, keeping researchers from assessing how the Internet will respond to route or policy changes; or simulations, which are restricted by limitations in our understanding of topology and policy. We propose a new class of interdomain research: researchers can instantiate an AS of their choice, including its intradomain topology and interdomain interconnectivity, and connect it with the l̈ive ̈Internet to exchange routes and traffic with real interdomain neighbors. Instead of being observers of the Internet ecosystem, researchers become members. Towards this end, we present the Peering testbed. In its nascent stage, the testbed has proven extremely useful, resulting in a series of studies that were nearly impossible for researchers to conduct in the past. In this paper, we present a vision of what the testbed can provide. We sketch how to extend the testbed to enable future innovation, taking advantage of the rise of IXPs to expand our testbed. |

| | 2548 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The German Lab (G-Lab) project aims to investigate architectural concepts and technologies for a new inter-networking architecture as an integrated approach between theoretic and experimental studies. Thus G-Lab consists of two major fields of activities: research studies of future network components and the design and setup of experimental facilities. Both are controlled by the same community to ensure that the experimental facility meets the demands of the researchers. Researchers gain access to virtualized resources or may gain exclusive access to resources if necessary. We present the current setup of the experimental facility, describing the available hardware, management of the platform, the utilization of the PlanetLab software and the user management. Moreover, a new approach to setup and deploy virtual network topologies will be described. |

| | 2561 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>With increasingly ambitious initiatives such as GENI and FIND that seek to design the future Internet, it becomes imperative to define the characteristics of robust topologies, and build future networks optimized for robustness. This paper investigates the characteristics of network topologies that maintain a high level of throughput in spite of multiple attacks. To this end, we select network topologies belonging to the main network models and some real world networks. We consider three types of attacks: removal of random nodes, high degree nodes, and high betweenness nodes. We use elasticity as our robustness measure and, through our analysis, illustrate that different topologies can have different degrees of robustness. In particular, elasticity can fall as low as 0.8% of the upper bound based on the attack employed. This result substantiates the need for optimized network topology design. Furthermore, we implement a tradeoff function that combines elasticity under the three attack strategies and considers the cost of the network. Our extensive simulations show that, for a given network density, regular and semi-regular topologies can have higher degrees of robustness than heterogeneous topologies, and that link redundancy is a sufficient but not necessary condition for robustness. |

| | 2574 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Campuses are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures for supporting data-intensive science applications that require ön-demand ̈resources, which are not always available locally on-site. Policies at the campus edge for handling multiple such applications competing for remote resources can cause bottlenecks across applications. These bottlenecks can be proactively avoided with pertinent profiling, monitoring and control of application flows using the emerging paradigm of software-defined networking (SDN). In this thesis, we leverage SDN principles in the design and implementation of an Äpplication-driven Overlay Network-as-a-Service ̈(ADON) framework that can manage the hybrid cloud requirements of multiple applications in a scalable and extensible manner. ADON's main features include: programmable c̈ustom templates ̈and a v̈irtual tenant handler ̈algorithm. Our solution approach in ADON involves scheduling transit selection and traffic engineering at the campus-edge based on real-time policy control that ensures predictable application performance delivery for multi-tenant traffic profiles. We also present a market-driven (distributed) resource optimization scheme that can address the Internet-scale scalability problems of handling resource requests of multiple data-intensive applications within a desktop-as-a-service cloud environment. We show how our optimization scheme can increase the system performance and user experience levels using metrics such as 'Service Response Time' and 'Net-Utility'. Lastly,we discuss ADON effectiveness validation with an implementation on a wide-area overlay network testbed featuring temporal behavior of multi-tenant traffic burst arrivals. We conclude by presenting hybrid cloud implementation best practices that ease the orchestration of network programmability for campus network providers and data-intensive application users. |

| | 2587 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Campuses are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures for supporting data-intensive science applications that require ” on-demand” resources, which are not always available locally on-site. Policies at the campus edge for handling multiple such applications competing for remote resources can cause bottlenecks across applications. These bottlenecks can be proactively avoided with pertinent profiling, monitoring and control of application flows using software-defined networking principles. In this paper, we present an ” Application-driven Overlay Network-as-a-Service” (ADON) that can manage the hybrid cloud requirements of multiple applications in a scalable and extensible manner using features such as: programmable ” custom templates” and a ” virtual tenant handler”.

| | 2600 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Popular applications such as email, photo/video galleries, and file storage are increasingly being supported by cloud platforms in residential, academic and industry communities. The next frontier for these user communities will be to transition `traditional desktops' that have dedicated hardware and software configurations into `virtual desktop clouds' that are accessible via thin-clients. In our thesis, we show how the underlying measurement services, with some additional capabilities, can be used as intelligent agents to provide network intelligence within thin-client based virtual desktops applications. The framework leverages principles of software defined networking and features an `unified resource broker' that uses special `marker packets' for: (a) ” route setup” when handling non-IP traffic between thin-client sites and data centers, (b) ” path selection” and ” load balancing” of virtual desktop flows to improve the performance of interactive applications and video playback, and to cope with faults such as link-failures or Denial-of-Service cyber-attacks. In addition, we detail our framework implementation within a virtual desktop cloud (VDC) in a multi-domain Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI). We present empirical results from our experimentation that leverages OpenFlow programmable networking, as well as OnTimeMeasure instrumentation-and-measurement capabilities for validating our framework in GENI under realistic settings. Our results demonstrate the importance of scheduling regulated measurements that can be used for intelligent resource placement decisions. Our results also show the feasibility and benefits of using the measurement services for effective path selection and load balancing between thin-client sites and data centers in VDCs and simulation applications. |

| | 2613 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This short paper presents an overview of the MobilityFirst network architecture, which is a clean-slate project being conducted as part of the NSF Future Internet Architecture (FIA) program. The proposed architecture is intended to directly address the challenges of wireless access and mobility at scale, while also providing new multicast, anycast, multi-path and context-aware services needed for emerging mobile Internet application scenarios. Key protocol components of the proposed architecture are: (a) separation of naming from addressing; (b) public key based self-certifying names (called globally unique identifiers or GUIDs) for network-attached objects; (c) global name resolution service (GNRS) for dynamic name-to-address binding; (d) delay-tolerant and storage-aware routing (GSTAR) capable of dealing with wireless link quality fluctuations and disconnections; (e) hop-by-hop transport of large protocol data units; and (f) location or context-aware services. The basic operations of a MobilityFirst router are outlined. This is followed by a discussion of ongoing proof-of-concept prototyping and experimental evaluation efforts for the MobilityFirst protocol stack. In conclusion, a brief description of an ongoing multi-site experimental deployment of the MobilityFirst protocol stack on the GENI testbed is provided. |

| | 2626 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>To sustain perpetual operation, systems that harvest environmental energy must carefully regulate their usage to satisfy their demand. Regulating energy usage is challenging if a system's demands are not elastic and its hardware components are not energy-proportional, since it cannot precisely scale its usage to match its supply. Instead, the system must choose when to satisfy its energy demands based on its current energy reserves and predictions of its future energy supply. In this paper, we explore the use of weather forecasts to improve a system's ability to satisfy demand by improving its predictions. We analyze weather forecast, observational, and energy harvesting data to formulate a model that translates a weather forecast to a wind or solar energy harvesting prediction, and quantify its accuracy. We evaluate our model for both energy sources in the context of two different energy harvesting sensor systems with inelastic demands: a sensor testbed that leases sensors to external users and a lexicographically fair sensor network that maintains steady node sensing rates. We show that using weather forecasts in both wind- and solar-powered sensor systems increases each system's ability to satisfy its demands compared with existing prediction strategies. |

| | 2639 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Advancements in technology over the past decade are leading to a promising future for large-scale distributed systems, where globally-scattered distributed resources are collectively pooled and used in a cooperative manner to achieve unprecedented petascale supercomputing capabilities. The issues of resource management (resMgt) and reputation management (repMgt) need to be addressed in order to ensure the successful deployment of large-scale distributed systems. However, these two issues have typically been addressed separately, despite the significant interdependencies between them: resMgt needs repMgt to provide a cooperative environment for resource sharing, and in turn facilitates repMgt to evaluate multi-faceted node reputations for providing different resources. Current repMgt methods provide a single reputation value for each node in providing all types of resources. However, a node willing to provide one resource may not be willing to provide another resource. In addition, current repMgt methods often guide node selection policy to select the highest-reputed nodes, which may overload these nodes. Also, few works exploited node reputation in resource selection in order to fully and fairly utilize resources in the system and to meet users' diverse QoS demands. We propose a system called Harmony that integrates resMgt and repMgt in a harmonious manner. Harmony incorporates two key innovations: integrated multi-faceted resource/reputation management and multi-QoS-oriented resource selection. The trace data we collected from an online trading platform confirms the importance of multi-faceted reputation and potential problems with highest-reputed node selection. Trace-driven experiments performed on PlanetLab show that Harmony outperforms existing resMgt and repMgt in terms of the success rate, service delay, and efficiency. |

| | 2665 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we present a hands-on course project that explores the performance of data transfer protocols using a GENI resource. TCP is one of the key topics in networking courses, and understanding its behavior as well as limitations, from real experiments, offers an invaluable and deep learning experience. A protocol's performance is directly impacted by network parameters such as network bandwidth, delay and loss. However, it is difficult to control and even vary those parameters, if it is not evaluated with simulations. GENI facilities conveniently provide a virtual laboratory that enables us to control the network settings with real network systems. Through this educational project, students had an opportunity to control important network parameters, and measure and compare TCP's performance with a UDP-based data transfer protocol, UDT, using EMULAB. Students were enthusiastic to witness the protocols' performances, and the limitations of TCP under a high bandwidth delay product network in the presence of packet loss, and to recognize the importance of protocol design and system issues for the future Internet. |

| | 2678 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Hybrid cloud architectures are particularly attractive to leverage city-level investments for building customized clouds, and for extending them to leverage public clouds. A successful design of the hybrid cloud architecture should facilitate the provisioning of scalable and secure services suited to a variety of communities such as residential homes and high-tech business incubators. In this paper, we present a novel Ïn-the-know ̈recommendation framework for provisioning of cloud resources in the form of 'on-demand contracts' to address the challenges in delivering the hybrid service variations for different community and individual needs. Our recommendation framework uses knowledge of the city's socio-economic goals/values as well as user preferences in terms of cost, performance and mobility. Using such knowledge, it recommends dynamic decisions by choosing from various provisioning alternatives in order to: (a) ensure optimal user Quality of Experience (QoE) in service delivery, and (b) effective utilization of hybrid cloud resources. We validate our recommendation framework using service composition experiments to satisfy an exemplar collaboration use case in an actual city-supported hybrid cloud test bed involving citizen consumers. |

In addition, while highlighting the challenges faced in construction of DOME, we describe a concrete set of scientific results derived from this experience in a retrospective study. First, we argue that a broad range of mobility experiments could be performed in a testbed which provides the properties of temporal, technological, and spatial diversity. We demonstrate these properties in our testbed through analysis of data collected from DOME over a period of four years. Second, we crystallize a set of design principles that others should use when constructing testbeds of their own, including those related to deploying and managing a diverse testbed, distributing experiments remotely, and fostering collaborations among testbed stakeholders. Finally, using traces collected by DOME, we provide insights into several important problems in mobile systems research. |

| | 2717 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) make virtual desktop cloud (VDC) resource provisioning decisions within desktop pools based on user groups and their application profiles. Such provisioning is aimed to satisfy acceptable user quality of experience (QoE) levels and is coupled with subsequent placement of VDs across distributed data centers. The placement decisions are influenced by session latency, load balancing and operation cost constraints. In this paper, we identify the resource fragmentation problem that occurs when placement is done opportunistically to minimize provisioning time and deliver satisfactory user QoE. To solve this problem, which inherently is an NP-Hard problem, we propose a defragmentation scheme that has fast convergence time and has three levels of complexity: (i) ütility fair provisioning ̈(UFP) to optimize resource provisioning within a data center - to achieve relative fairness between desktop pools, (ii) s̈tatic migration-free utility optimal placement and provisioning ̈(MUPP) to optimize resource provisioning between multiple data centers - to improve performance, and (iii) d̈ynamic global utility optimal placement and provisioning ̈(GUPP) to optimize resource provisioning using cost-aware and utility-maximal VD re-allocations and migrations - to increase scalability. We evaluate our defragmentation scheme against 'least latency', 'least load', and 'least cost' schemes using a novel V̈DC-Sim ̈simulator that we have developed in this study. Our simulations leverage profiles of user groups and their applications within desktop pools, obtained from a real VDC test bed. Our simulation results demonstrate that defragmentation is an important optimization step that can enable CSPs to achieve fairness, substantially improve user QoE and increase VDC scalability. |

| | 2730 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper deals with challenges in federating wireless sensing fabrics. Federations of this sort are currently being developed in next generation global end-to-end experimentation infrastructures, such as GENI, to support rapid prototyping and hi-fidelity validation of protocols and applications. On one hand, federation should support access to diverse (and potentially provider-specific) wireless sensor resources and, on the other, it should enable users to uniformly task these resources. Instead of more simple basing federation upon a standard description of resources, we propose an architecture where the ontology of resource description can vary across providers, and a mapping of user needs to resources is performed to achieve uniform tasking. We illustrate one realization of this architecture, in terms of our refactoring the Kansei testbed to become the KanseiGenie federated fabric manager, which has full support for programmability, sliceability, and federated experimentation over heterogeneous sensing fabrics. |

| | 2743 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud computing is an emerging paradigm for on-demand access to computing resources over the network. Beyond early Software as a Service (SaaS) offerings, there is an increasing interest in the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model where users request specific storage, networking, and computing resources to meet their application needs. To provision the network in a cloud, IaaS providers, such as the Amazon Web Services, allow users to choose their IP addresses, which can be associated with a dynamic set of virtual hosts (Elastic IP) with VPN, dynamic DNS, and dynamic firewall services. In this paper, we analyze a range of cloud network provisioning needs and the means to realize them in an OpenFlow network. We present an OpenFlow enabled framework for cloud network provisioning, based on the Open- Nebula cloud provisioning engine. Specifically, we demonstrate an Elastic IP service compatible with the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) API. This demonstration is available on the Clemson OneCloud IaaS offering. Ongoing efforts focus on the enablement of additional cloud network services for campus networks and wide area experimental networks like the National Science Foundation's GENI network. |

| | 2756 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a reference implementation of an Elastic IP and Security Group service using the OpenFlow protocol. The implementation is the first to present integration of OpenFlow within a virtual machine provisioning engine and an API for enabling such services. In this paper the OpenNebula system is used. The Elastic IP and Security Groups services are similar to the Amazon EC2 services and present a compatible Query API implemented by OpenNebula. The core of the implementation relies on the integration of an OpenFlow controller (NOX) with the EC2 server. Flow rules can be inserted in the OpenFlow controller using the EC2 API. These rules are then used by Open vSwitch bridges on the underlying hypervisor to manage network traffic. The reference implementation presented opens the door for more advanced cloud networking services that leverage principles from software defined networking including virtual private cloud, virtual data center spanning multiple availability zones, as well as seamless migration over wide are networks. |

| | 2769 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimental platforms (testbeds) play a significant role in the evaluation of new and existing technologies. Their popularity has been raised lately as more and more researchers prefer experimentation over simulation as a way for acquiring more accurate results. This imposes significant challenges in testbed operators since an efficient mechanism is needed to manage the testbed's resources and provision them according to the users' needs. In this paper we describe such a framework which was implemented for the management of networking testbeds. We present the design requirements and the implementation details, along with the challenges we encountered during its operation in the NITOS testbed. Significant results were extracted through the experiences of the every day operation of the testbed's management. |

| | 2808 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The growth of the Internet in terms of number of devices, the number of networks associated to each device and the mobility of devices and users makes the operation and management of the Internet network infrastructure a very complex challenge. In order to address this challenge, innovative solutions and ideas must be tested and evaluated in real network environments and not only based on simulations or laboratory setups. OFELIA is an European FP7 project and its main objective is to address the aforementioned challenge by building and operating a multi-layer, multi-technology and geographically distributed Future Internet testbed facility, where the network itself is precisely controlled and programmed by the experimenter using the emerging OpenFlow technology. This paper reports on the work done during the first half of the project, the lessons learned as well as the key advantages of the OFELIA facility for developing and testing new networking ideas. An overview on the challenges that have been faced on the design and implementation of the testbed facility is described, including the OFELIA Control Framework testbed management software. In addition, early operational experience of the facility since it was opened to the general public, providing five different testbeds or islands, is described. |

| | 2821 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>With the rise of video streaming and cloud services, enterprise and access networks receive much more traffic than they send, and must rely on the Internet to offer good end-to-end performance. These edge networks often connect to multiple ISPs for better performance and reliability, but have only limited ways to influence which of their ISPs carries the traffic for each service. In this paper, we present Sprite, a software-defined solution for flexible inbound traffic engineering (TE). Sprite offers direct, fine-grained control over inbound traffic, by announcing different public IP prefixes to each ISP, and performing source network address translation (SNAT) on outbound request traffic. Our design achieves scalability in both the data plane (by performing SNAT on edge switches close to the clients) and the control plane (by having local agents install the SNAT rules). The controller translates high-level TE objectives, based on client and server names, as well as performance metrics, to a dynamic network policy based on real-time traffic and performance measurements. We evaluate Sprite with live data from ïn the wild ̈experiments on an EC2-based testbed, and demonstrate how Sprite dynamically adapts the network policy to achieve high-level TE objectives, such as balancing YouTube traffic among ISPs to improve video quality. |

| | 2834 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Utility companies are integrating multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) technologies into existing backbone networks, including networks between substations and control centers. MPLS has mechanisms for efficient overlay technologies as well as mechanisms to enhance security: features essential to the functioning of the smart grid. However, with MPLS routing and other switching technologies innovation is restricted to the features enclosed ” in the box.” More specifically, there is no practical way for utility operators or researchers to test new ideas such as alternatives to IP or MPLS on a realistic scale to obtain the experience and confidence necessary for real world deployments. As a result, novel ideas go untested. Conversely, the OpenFlow framework has enabled significant advancements in network research. OpenFlow provides utility operators and researchers the programmability and flexibility necessary to enable innovation in next-generation communication architectures for the smart grid. This level of flexibility allows OpenFlow to provide all features of MPLS and also allows OpenFlow devices to co-exist with existing MPLS devices. The simulation results in this paper demonstrate that OpenFlow performs as well as MPLS, and may therefore be considered an alternative to MPLS for smart grid applications. |

| | 2847 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cyber physical systems emerge when physical systems are integrated with communication networks. In particular, communication networks facilitate dissemination of data among components of physical systems to meet key requirements, such as efficiency and reliability, in achieving an objective. In this dissertation, we consider one of the most important cyber physical systems: the smart grid. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) envisions a smart grid that aggressively explores advance communication network solutions to facilitate real-time monitoring and dynamic control of the bulk electric power system. At the distribution level, the smart grid integrates renewable generation and energy storage mechanisms to improve reliability of the grid. Furthermore, dynamic pricing and demand management provide customers an avenue to interact with the power system to determine electricity usage that satisfies their lifestyle. At the transmission level, efficient communication and a highly automated architecture provide visibility in the power system; hence, faults are mitigated faster than they can propagate. However, higher levels of reliability and efficiency rely on the supporting physical communication infrastructure and the network technologies employed. Conventionally, the topology of the communication network tends to be identical to that of the power network. In this dissertation, however, we employ a Demand Response (DR) application to illustrate that a topology that may be ideal for the power network may not necessarily be ideal for the communication network. To develop this illustration, we realize that communication network issues, such as congestion, are addressed by protocols, middle-ware, and software mechanisms. Additionally, a network whose physical topology is designed to avoid congestion realizes an even higher level of performance. For this reason, characterizing the communication infrastructure of smart grids provides mechanisms to improve performance while minimizing cost. Most recently, algebraic connectivity has been used in the ongoing research effort characterizing the robustness of networks to failures and attacks. Therefore, we first derive analytical methods for increasing algebraic connectivity and validate these methods numerically. Secondly, we investigate impact on the topology and traffic characteristics as algebraic connectivity is increased. Finally, we construct a DR application to demonstrate how concepts from graph theory can dramatically improve the performance of a communication network. With a hybrid simulation of both power and communication network, we illustrate that a topology which may be ideal for the power network may not necessarily be ideal for the communication network. To date, utility companies are embracing network technologies such as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) because of the available support for legacy devices, traffic engineering, and virtual private networks (VPNs) which are essential to the functioning of the smart grid. Furthermore, this particular network technology meets the requirement of non-routability as stipulated by NERC, but these benefits are costly for the infrastructure that supports the full MPLS specification. More importantly, with MPLS routing and other switching technologies, innovation is restricted to the features provided by the equipment. In particular, no practical method exists for utility consultants or researchers to test new ideas, such as alternatives to IP or MPLS, on a realistic scale in order to obtain the experience and confidence necessary for real-world deployments. As a result, novel ideas remain untested. On the contrary, OpenFlow, which has gained support from network providers such as Microsoft and Google and equipment vendors such as NEC and Cisco, provides the programmability and flexibility necessary to enable innovation in next-generation communication architectures for the smart grid. This level of flexibility allows OpenFlow to provide all features of MPLS and allows OpenFlow devices to co-exist with existing MPLS devices. Therefore, in this dissertation we explore a low-cost OpenFlow Software Defined Networking solution and compare its performance to that of MPLS. In summary, we develop methods for designing robust networks and evaluate software defined networking for communication and control in cyber physical systems where the smart grid is the system under consideration. |

| | 2873 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>An architecture called the slice-exchange-point (SEP) has been designed for federating heterogeneous net-work-virtualization platforms by creating and managing slices (virtual networks). SEP enables whole inter-domain resources to be managed by the network manager of any single domain. Slice-operation commands are propagated to other domains through SEP by using a common API. SEP introduces the following four features: infrastructure neutrality, single interface federation, abstract and clean federation, and extensibility of capabilities. SEP's functions to achieve these features are discussed. SEP was partially implemented on two VNode domains and one ProtoGENI domain and was verified to function effectively. |

| | 2886 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We design and implement a network-coding-enabled relia- bility architecture for next generation wireless networks. Our network coding (NC) architecture uses a flexible thread-based design, with each encoder-decoder instance applying systematic intra-session random lin- ear network coding as a packet erasure code at the IP layer. Using GENI WiMAX platforms, a series of point-to-point transmission experiments were conducted to compare the performance of the NC architecture to that of the Automatic Repeated reQuest (ARQ) and Hybrid ARQ (HARQ) mechanisms. In our scenarios, the proposed architecture is able to decrease packet loss from around 11-32% to nearly 0%; compared to HARQ and joint HARQ/ARQ mechanisms, the NC architecture offers up to 5.9 times gain in throughput and 5.5 times reduction in end-to- end file transfer delay. By establishing NC as a potential substitute for HARQ/ARQ, our experiments offer important insights into cross-layer designs of next generation wireless networks. |

| | 2899 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The ability to capture and process packet-level data is of intrinsic importance in network testbeds that offer broad experimental capabilities to researchers. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a passive measurement system for network testbeds called GIMS. The system enables users to specify and centrally manage packet capture on a set of dedicated measurement nodes deployed on links in a distributed testbed. The first component of GIMS is a scalable experiment management system that coordinates multi-tenant access to measurement nodes through a web-based user interface. The second component of GIMS is a node management system that enables (i) local processing on packets (e.g., flow aggregation and sampling), (ii) meta-data to be added to captured packets (e.g., timestamps), (iii) packet anonymization per local security policy, and (iv) flexible data storage including transfer to remote archives. We demonstrate the capabilities of GIMS through a set of micro-benchmarks that specifically highlight the performance of the node management system deployed on a commodity workstation. Our implementations are openly available to the community and our development efforts are on-going. |

| | 2912 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Team-based distributed software development (TBDSD) is one of the single biggest challenges facing software companies. The need to manage development efforts and resources in different locations increase the complexity and cost of modern day software development. Current software development environments do not provide suitable support to delegate task among teams with appropriate directives. TBDSD is also limited to the current internet capabilities. One of the resulting problems is the difficulty to delegate and control tasks assigned among remote teams. This paper proposes (1) a new framework for delegation in TBDSD, and (2) perspectives for deploying Process-centered Software Engineering Environments (PSEE) over the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) infrastructure. GENI, the 'future Internet' that is taking shape in prototypes across the US, will allow, in the context of our study, to securely access and share software artifacts, resources, and tools as never before seen over the current Internet. |

| | 2925 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>FELIX, the EU-Japan jointly-funded project, establishes a software defined networking (SDN) experimental facility which spans two continents and several administrative domains via dynamic transit network connections. The FELIX architectural blueprint provides an excellent example where key topics such as policy-based software-defined infrastructure instantiation is supported by resource orchestrators which manage multi-domain distributed compute and network resources including on-demand provisioning of transit network resources. In this context, FELIX implements a modern approach for authentication and authorization in SDN experimental facilities which enables fine-grained control and avoids single points of failure. This paper details the underlying mechanisms for user and transit network resource authentication and authorization in FELIX. |

| | 2938 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation in system-oriented courses is often challenging, due to the raw and complex nature of the underlying infrastructure. In this work, we present our findings in teaching cloud computing to upper-level and graduate level students with GENI testbeds that are in use by the distributed systems community. The possibility of giving students practical and relevant experience was explored in the context of new course assignment objectives. Furthermore, students were able to explore systems concepts using GENI testbeds, and contribute to a collaborative class wide project with medium scale computation using satellite data. Our proposed set of experiments and course project provide a basis for an evaluation of the tradeoffs of teaching cloud and distributed systems. However, the software engineering challenges in these environments proved to be daunting. The amount of installation, configuration, and maintenance of their experiments was more than what students anticipated. The challenges the students faced drove them towards more traditional local development than attempting to work on the testbeds we presented. We hope that our findings provide insight into some of the possibilities to consider when preparing the next generation of computer scientists to engage with software practices and paradigms that are already fundamental in today's highly distributed systems. |

| | 2951 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Modern distributed applications often have to make a choice about how to maintain data within the system. Distributed storage systems are often self- contained in a single cluster or are a black box as data placement is unknown by an application. Using wide area distributed storage either means using multiple APIs or loss of control of data placement. This work introduces Sage, a distributed filesystem that aggregates multiple backends under a common API. It also gives applications the ability to decide where file data is stored in the aggregation. By leveraging Sage, users can create applications using multiple distributed backends with the same API, and still decide where to physically store any given file. Sage uses a layered design where API calls are translated into the appropriate set of backend calls then sent to the correct physical backend. This way Sage can hold many backends at once making them appear as the same filesystem. The performance overhead of using Sage is shown to be minimal over directly using the backend stores, and Sage is also shown to scale with respect to backends used. A case study shows file placement in action and how applications can take advantage of the feature. |

| | 2977 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a novel mobility architecture called Virtual Mobility Domains that is designed to work with the Floating Cloud Tiered Internetworking model. Virtual Mobility Domains supports both inter Autonomous System (macro) and intra Autonomous System (micro) mobility by leveraging a tiered addressing, a network cloud concept, and a unique packet forwarding scheme introduced by the Floating Cloud Tiered Internetworking model. The proposed mobility architecture is distinct from others by not using IP addressing and classic routing protocols, and deploying user-centric overlapping mobility domains. The comparative simulation study of Virtual Mobility Domains against Mobile IPv6, Hierarchical Mobile IPv6, and Proxy Mobile IPv6 using OPNET shows that Virtual Mobility Domains brings lower latency, lesser signaling overhead, and fewer packets loss during handoffs, specially during inter Autonomous System roaming. The results highlight the potential for a seamless mobility management. |

| 444 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Computer networking researchers often have access to a few dierent network testbeds (Section 1.2) for their experiments. However, those testbeds are limited in resources; contentions for resources are prominent in those testbeds especially when conference deadline is looming. Moreover, services running on those testbeds are subject to seasonal and daily trac spikes from users all round the world. Hence, demand for resources at the testbeds are high. Some researchers can use other testbeds in conjunction with the ones they are using. Even though each of the testbeds may have dierent infrastructures, and characteristics, in the end, what the researchers receive in return is a set of computing resources, either virtual machines or physical machines. Essentially, those testbeds are providing a similar service, but researchers have to manage the credentials for accessing the testbeds manually, and they have to manually request resources from dierent testbeds in order to setup experiments that span across dierent testbeds. This thesis presents GENICloud, a project that enables the federation of testbeds with clouds. Computing and storage resources can be provisioned to researchers and services running on existing testbeds dynamically from an Eucalyptus cloud. As a part of the GENICloud project, the user proxy (Section 3.4) provides a less arduous method for testbeds administrators to federate with other testbeds; the same serviceiv also manages researchers credentials, so they do not have to acquire resources from each testbed individually. The user proxy provides a single interface for researchers to interact with dierent testbeds and clouds and manage their experiments. Furthermore, GENICloud demonstrates that there are, in fact, quite a few architectural similarities between dierent testbeds and even clouds |

| 461 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Support for distributed application management in large-scale networked environments remains in its early stages. Although a number of solutions exist for subtasks of application deployment, monitoring, and maintenance in distributed environments, few tools provide a unified framework for application management. Many of the existing tools address the management needs of a single type of application or service that runs in a specific environment, and these tools are not adaptable enough to be used for other applications or platforms. To this end, we present the design and implementation of Plush, a fully configurable application management infrastructure designed to meet the general requirements of several different classes of distributed applications. Plush allows developers to specifically define the flow of control needed by their computations using application building blocks. Through an extensible resource management interface, Plush supports execution in a variety of environments, including both live deployment platforms and emulated clusters. Plush also uses relaxed synchronization primitives for improving fault tolerance and liveness in failure-prone environments. To gain an understanding of how Plush manages different classes of distributed applications, we take a closer look at specific applications and evaluate how Plush provides support for each. |

| 487 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A scalable approach to building large scale experimentation testbeds involves multiplexing the system resources for better utilization. Virtualization provides a convenient means of sharing testbed resources among experimenters. The degree of programmability and isolation achieved with such a setup is largely dependent on the type of technology used for virtualization. We consider OpenVZ and User Mode Linux (UML) for virtualization of the ORBIT wireless testbed and evaluate their relative merit. Our results show that OpenVZ, an operating system level virtualization mechanism significantly outperforms UML in terms of system overheads and performance isolation. We discuss both qualitative and quantitative performance features which could serve as guidelines for selection of a virtualization scheme for similar testbeds. |

| 500 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Today's Internet which provides communication channels with best-effort end-to-end performance is rapidly evolving into an autonomic global computing platform. Achieving autonomicity in the Future Internet will require a performance architecture that (a) allows users to request and own 'slices' of geographically-distributed host and network resources, (b) measures and monitors end-to-end host and network status, (c) enables analysis of the measurements within expert systems, and (d) provides performance intelligence in a timely manner for application adaptations to improve performance and scalability. We de- scribe the requirements and design of one such F̈uture Internet performance architecture ̈(FIPA), and present our reference implementation of FIPA called 'OnTimeMeasure.' OnTimeMeasure comprises of several measurement-related services that can interact with each other and with existing measurement frameworks to enable performance intelligence. We also explain our OnTimeMea- sure deployment in the global environment for network innovations (GENI) infrastructure collaborative research initiative to build a sliceable Future Internet. Further, we present an application- adaptation case study in GENI that uses OnTimeMeasure-enabled performance intelligence in the context of dynamic resource allocation within thin-client based virtual desktop clouds. We show how a virtual desktop cloud provider in the Future Internet can use the performance intelligence to increase cloud scalability, while simultaneously delivering satisfactory user quality-of-experience. |

| 513 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>File sharing applications in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have attracted more and more attention in recent years. The efficiency of file querying suffers from the distinctive properties of MANETs including node mobility and limited communication range and resource. An intuitive method to alleviate this problem is to create file replicas in the network. However, despite the efforts on file replication, no research has focused on the global optimal replica sharing with minimum average querying delay. Specifically, current file replication protocols in MANETs have two shortcomings. First, they lack a rule to allocate limited resource to different files in order to minimize the average querying delay. Second, they simply consider storage as resource for replicas, but neglect the fact that the file holders' frequency of meeting other nodes also plays an important role in determining file availability. A node having a higher meeting frequency with others provides higher availability to its files. In this paper, we introduce a new concept of resource for file replication, which considers both node storage and meeting frequency. We theoretically study the influence of resource allocation on the average querying delay and derive a resource allocation rule to minimize the average querying delay. We further propose a distributed file replication protocol that follows the rule. The trace-driven experiments on both the real-world GENI testbed and NS-2 show that our protocol can achieve shorter average querying delay at lower cost than current replication protocols, which justifies the correctness of our theoretical analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed protocol. |

| 526 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Current P2P file sharing methods in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) can be classified into three groups: flooding-based, advertisement-based and social contact-based. The first two groups of methods can easily generate high overhead and low scalability, and the third group fails to consider the social interests (content) of mobile nodes, which otherwise can improve file searching efficiency. In this paper, we propose a P2P content-based file sharing system for MANETs. The system uses an interest extraction algorithm to derive a node's interests from its files for complex queries. For efficient file searching, it groups common-interest nodes that frequently meet with each other as communities. Further, it takes advantage of node mobility by designating stable nodes, which has frequent contact with community members, as community coordinators for intra-community searching, and highly-mobile nodes as community ambassadors for inter-community searching. An interest-oriented file searching scheme further enhances the file searching success rate. We first deployed our system on the real-world GENI Orbit testbed with a real trace and then conducted experiment on the ns2 simulator with both real trace and simulated disconnected and connected MANET scenario. The test results show that our system significantly lowers transmission cost and improves file searching success rate compared to current methods. |

After a description of the major issues characterizing the management of the expected Future Internet, the main autonomic management paradigms, and some recently introduced autonomic service platforms, we show and demonstrate the effectiveness of the NetServ architecture.

| 578 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Shared measurement services offer key advantages over conventional ad-hoc techniques for network monitoring. A measurement service may receive measurement requests concurrently from different applications and network administrators. These measurement requests are often served by injecting active network measurement traffic between two hosts. Two active measurements are said to interfere when the probe packets of one measurement tool are viewed as network traffic by the other. This may lead to faulty measurement readings. In this paper, we model the measurement interference problem, and show how to schedule measurement tasks to reduce interference and hence increase measurement accuracy. We propose twelve computationally tractable algorithms that decrease the total completion time (makespan) of measurement tasks, while avoiding interference. Our evaluation shows that the algorithm we refer to as Largest Area First, Busiest Node First - Earliest Interval Schedule (LAFBNF-EIS) has a mean makespan of about 5% more than the theoretical lower bound over our set of measurement workloads. |

| 591 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As a first step towards predictable, repeatable WSN experimentation, we propose the resource specification language LENS (a.k.a. Language for Embedded Networked Sensing) for WSN experimentation infrastructures. Using the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and the Web Ontology Language (OWL), LENS defines a semantic ontology for WSN resources; LENS enables explicit control and measurement of uncertainty factors, and it enables reasoning about the relationships between WSN resources. Focusing on basic concepts of WSNs, LENS supports resource specification in a wide range of WSN experimentation infrastructures, and it is extensible to support potentially unforeseen technologies. LENS is also compatible with specification languages for other network resources such as optical networks. As a part of the NSF GENI initiative, we have implemented LENS in the KanseiGenie control framework, and LENS has been actively used to support experimentation in the federated WSN infrastructure involving Kansei and NetEye. Enabling reasoning about uncertainty factors in experimentation, LENS is expected to serve as a basis for developing methodologies and tools for predictable, repeatable WSN experimentation. |

| 604 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) has become an increasingly popular type of service for both private and public clouds. The virtual infrastructures that enable IaaS support multitenancy by multiplexing the computational resources of data centers and result in substantial reductions in operational costs. Since hardware and software failures occur on a routine basis in large-scale systems, it is imperative for cloud providers to offer various failure recovery options for distributed services hosted on such infrastructures. In this article we present GENI-VIOLIN, a new cloud capability that can checkpoint a stateful distributed service while incurring very low overhead. The unique aspect of GENI-VIOLIN compared to previous work is that GENI-VIOLIN exploits programmable OpenFlow switches to provide checkpointing services in the network, thereby requiring minimal changes to the end host virtualization framework. We have developed a prototype of GENI-VIOLIN using the GENI infrastructure, and have demonstrated GENI-VIOLIN's checkpoint and restore capability across multiple GENI sites. |

| 617 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We propose a new approach to mitigate disruptions of Internet connectivity. The Internet was designed to always find a route if there is a policy-compliant path; however, in many cases, connectivity is disrupted despite the existence of an underlying valid path. The research community has done considerable work on this problem, much of it focused on short-term outages that occur during route convergence. There has been less progress on addressing avoidable long-lasting outages. Our measurements show that long-lasting events contribute significantly to overall unavailability. To address these long-term problems, we develop a system, Machiavellian routing, for automatic failure remediation, centered around the use of BGP poisoning. With poisoning, an edge network can cause other networks to send traffic to it via paths that avoid a problem in a particular transit ISP. We describe the key challenges to using poisoning to improve Internet connectivity, and we develop a set of techniques to use it predictably, accurately, and effectively. |

| 630 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>An analysis of requesting resources from large-scale networks reveals a fundamental challenge. As the network grows, more and more resources become available, and so finding resources that fit experimental test criteria becomes difficult and time consuming. For example, the National Science Foundation sponsors GENI--an experimental network with a goal to gain enough resources to model the Internet at scale. Currently, GENI contains relatively few contributed resources donated from businesses and academia, and so matching resources to tests is rather simple. However, experimenters plan to conduct network experiments that are very complex and difficult to accurately model by using the vast numbers of resources expected in GENI. When GENI reaches its final state, finding the right resources that fit experimental test criteria out of many thousands of donated resources may be as difficult as conducting the experiment itself. This dilemma underscores the importance of establishing an attribute description service that promotes a standardized language for all interactions between the end users and the large-scale network. |

| 643 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We present NetServ, a node architecture for deploying in-network services in the next generation Internet. NetServ-enabled network nodes provide a common execution environment, where network services implemented as modules can be dynamically installed and removed. We demonstrate three such modules. MicroCDN is a dynamic content distribution network (CDN) service which implements a content caching strategy specific to a content provider. The NAT Keep-alive module offloads the processing of keep-alive messages from SIP servers. The Media Relay module allows any NetServ node to act as a media relay, eliminating the need to manage standalone relay servers. NetServ aims to revive the Active Networking vision. It was too far ahead of its time a decade ago, but we believe its time has finally arrived. |

| 656 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a unique virtual laboratory for at-scale networking experimentation exploring future Internets. The successful development of GENI has to consider security problems from the design and prototyping stages. However, in many cases, system vulnerability cannot be found unless through real experimentation bearing purposeful and meaningful designs. In this paper, we introduce some of our efforts in exploring the security vulnerabilities in ProtoGENI, a prototype implementation and deployment of GENI. Our results show potential breach on security of GENI in terms of availability. We make suggestions on potential defense strategies in order to improve the ProtoGENI security and its development. |

ProtoGENI is a prototype control framework implementation of GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovations). We perform a variety of experiments in an effort to identify potential vulnerabilities presented in the current implementation. We classify our attacks into three types: data plane to data plane, data plane to control plane, and data plane to Internet. Our results indicate the potential for a breach of confidentiality and availability internally within ProtoGENI, as well as risks to external Internet. We make suggestions outlining possible defense strategies to improve ProtoGENI security and aid in future development |

| 695 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Computers and Internet have evolved into necessary tools for our professional, personal and social lives. As a result of this growing dependence, there is a concern that these systems remain protected and available. This concern increases exponentially when considering systems such as smart power grids. Therefore, research should be conducted to develop effective ways of detecting system anomalies. To have realistic results, the studies should be tested on real systems. However, it is not possible to test these experiments on the live network. With the recent collaboration of Universities and research labs, a new experiment test bed has been established. As a result, experiments can now be implemented on real networks. In our study, we design an experiment to analyze Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS Attack) on a real network with real Internet traffic. The approach that we use in our study can easily be generalized to apply to smart power grids. |

| 708 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>User communities are rapidly transitioning their ” traditional desktops” that have dedicated hardware and software installations into ” virtual desktop clouds” (VDCs) that are accessible via thin-clients. To allocate and manage VDC resources for Internet-scale desktop delivery, existing work focuses mainly on managing server-side resources based on utility functions of CPU and memory loads, and do not consider network health and thin-client user experience. Resource allocations without combined utility-directed information of system loads, network health and thin-client user experience in VDC platforms inevitably results in costly guesswork and overprovisioning of resources. In this thesis, an analytical model i.e., ” Utility-Directed Resource Allocation Model (U-RAM)” is presented to solve the combined utility-directed resource allocation problem within VDCs. The solution uses an iterative algorithm that leverages utility functions of system, network and human components obtained using a novel virtual desktop performance benchmarking toolkit i.e., ” VDBench”. The combined utility functions are used to direct decision schemes based on Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions for creating user desktop pools and determining optimal resource allocation size/location. U-RAM is evaluated in a VDC testbed featuring: (a) popular user applications (Spreadsheet Calculator, Internet Browser, Media Player, Interactive Visualization), and (b) TCP/UDP based thin-client protocols (RDP, RGS, PCoIP) under a variety of user load and network health conditions. Evaluation results demonstrate that U-RAM solution maximizes VDC scalability i.e., 'VDs per core density', and 'user connections quantity', while delivering satisfactory thin-client user experience. |

| 747 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GpENI is evolving to provide a promising environment in which to do experimental research in the resilience and survivability of future networks, by allowing programmable control over topology and mechanism, while providing the scale and global reach needed to conduct network experiments far beyond the capabilities of a conventional testbed. Addressing this need at scale introduces a number of challenges both in deployment and in collecting results that can be directly compared to simulation results for cross-verification purposes. In this short paper we present the scope, design goals, challenges, and current status of the GpENI programmable testbed, as well as an overview and examples of the types of experiments we are beginning to run. |

| 760 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This short paper presents an overview of the MobilityFirst network architecture, which is a clean-slate project being conducted as part of the NSF Future Internet Architecture (FIA) program. The proposed architecture is intended to directly address the challenges of wireless access and mobility at scale, while also providing new multicast, anycast, multi-path and context-aware services needed for emerging mobile Internet application scenarios. Key protocol components of the proposed architecture are: (a) separation of naming from addressing; (b) public key based self-certifying names (called globally unique identifiers or GUIDs) for network-attached objects; (c) global name resolution service (GNRS) for dynamic name-to-address binding; (d) delay-tolerant and storage-aware routing (GSTAR) capable of dealing with wireless link quality fluctuations and disconnections; (e) hop-by-hop transport of large protocol data units; and (f) location or context-aware services. The basic operations of a MobilityFirst router are outlined. This is followed by a discussion of ongoing proof-of-concept prototyping and experimental evaluation efforts for the MobilityFirst protocol stack. In conclusion, a brief description of an ongoing multi-site experimental deployment of the MobilityFirst protocol stack on the GENI testbed is provided. |

| 773 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Advancements in technology over the past decade are leading to a promising future for large-scale distributed systems, where globally-scattered distributed resources are collectively pooled and used in a cooperative manner to achieve unprecedented petascale supercomputing capabilities. The issues of resource management (resMgt) and reputation management (repMgt) need to be addressed in order to ensure the successful deployment of large-scale distributed systems. However, these two issues have typically been addressed separately, despite the significant interdependencies between them: resMgt needs repMgt to provide a cooperative environment for resource sharing, and in turn facilitates repMgt to evaluate multi-faceted node reputations for providing different resources. Current repMgt methods provide a single reputation value for each node in providing all types of resources. However, a node willing to provide one resource may not be willing to provide another resource. In addition, current repMgt methods often guide node selection policy to select the highest-reputed nodes, which may overload these nodes. Also, few works exploited node reputation in resource selection in order to fully and fairly utilize resources in the system and to meet users' diverse QoS demands. We propose a system called Harmony that integrates resMgt and repMgt in a harmonious manner. Harmony incorporates two key innovations: integrated multi-faceted resource/reputation management and multi-QoS-oriented resource selection. The trace data we collected from an online trading platform confirms the importance of multi-faceted reputation and potential problems with highest-reputed node selection. Trace-driven experiments performed on PlanetLab show that Harmony outperforms existing resMgt and repMgt in terms of the success rate, service delay, and efficiency. |

| 786 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) make virtual desktop cloud (VDC) resource provisioning decisions within desktop pools based on user groups and their application profiles. Such provisioning is aimed to satisfy acceptable user quality of experience (QoE) levels and is coupled with subsequent placement of VDs across distributed data centers. The placement decisions are influenced by session latency, load balancing and operation cost constraints. In this paper, we identify the resource fragmentation problem that occurs when placement is done opportunistically to minimize provisioning time and deliver satisfactory user QoE. To solve this problem, which inherently is an NP-Hard problem, we propose a defragmentation scheme that has fast convergence time and has three levels of complexity: (i) ütility fair provisioning ̈(UFP) to optimize resource provisioning within a data center - to achieve relative fairness between desktop pools, (ii) s̈tatic migration-free utility optimal placement and provisioning ̈(MUPP) to optimize resource provisioning between multiple data centers - to improve performance, and (iii) d̈ynamic global utility optimal placement and provisioning ̈(GUPP) to optimize resource provisioning using cost-aware and utility-maximal VD re-allocations and migrations - to increase scalability. We evaluate our defragmentation scheme against 'least latency', 'least load', and 'least cost' schemes using a novel V̈DC-Sim ̈simulator that we have developed in this study. Our simulations leverage profiles of user groups and their applications within desktop pools, obtained from a real VDC test bed. Our simulation results demonstrate that defragmentation is an important optimization step that can enable CSPs to achieve fairness, substantially improve user QoE and increase VDC scalability. |

| 799 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As the Internet becomes increasingly important to all aspects of society, the consequences of disruption become increasingly severe. Thus it is critical to increase the resilience and survivability of the future network. We define resilience as the ability of the network to provide desired service even when challenged by attacks, large-scale disasters, and other failures. This paper describes a comprehensive methodology to evaluate network resilience using a combination of analytical and simulation techniques with the goal of improving the resilience and survivability of the Future Internet. |

| 812 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Team-based distributed software development (TBDSD) is one of the single biggest challenges facing software companies. The need to manage development efforts and resources in different locations increase the complexity and cost of modern day software development. Current software development environments do not provide suitable support to delegate task among teams with appropriate directives. TBDSD is also limited to the current internet capabilities. One of the resulting problems is the difficulty to delegate and control tasks assigned among remote teams. This paper proposes (1) a new framework for delegation in TBDSD, and (2) perspectives for deploying Process-centered Software Engineering Environments (PSEE) over the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) infrastructure. GENI, the 'future Internet' that is taking shape in prototypes across the US, will allow, in the context of our study, to securely access and share software artifacts, resources, and tools as never before seen over the current Internet. |

| | 3055 | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Online service providers aim to provide good performance for an increasingly diverse set of applications and services. One of the most effective ways to improve service performance is to replicate the service closer to the end users. Replication alone, however, has its limits: while operators can replicate static content, wide-scale replication of dynamic content is not always feasible or cost effective. To improve the latency of such services many operators turn to Internet traffic engineering. In this paper, we study the benefits of performing replica-to-end-user mappings in conjunction with active Internet traffic engineering. We present the design of PECAN, a system that controls both the selection of replicas (c̈ontent routing)̈ and the routes between the clients and their associated replicas (n̈etwork routing)̈. We emulate a replicated service that can perform both content and network routing by deploying PECAN on a distributed testbed. In our testbed, we see that jointly performing content and network routing can reduce round-trip latency by 4.3% on average over performing content routing alone (potentially reducing service response times by tens of milliseconds or more) and that most of these gains can be realized with no more than five alternate routes at each replica. |

| 881 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Empirical evaluations to study network performance, whether in a laboratory setting or on GENI testbeds, rely heavily on measurement-based modeling of round trip times (RTTs) to emulate realistic end-to-end delays of local and metropolitan area networks. For generating realistic traffic, we studied several models to emulate RTTs. In this paper, we performed experiments on real testbeds using synthetic TCP traffic generated from measurement data from a large university campus. As a result of our study, we present the Discrete- Approximation model for RTT (DA-RTT) emulation. Using three different metrics for performance evaluation, which include queue length at routers, connection response times, and connection durations, we demonstrate that the simple DA-RTT model closely represents the per-connection RTTs in the original traffic. While these experiments were performed in our laboratory, and not using GENI infrastructure, we present this as a possible model for adoption on GENI testbeds to emulate Round Trip Time Distributions for GENI experiments. |

| 894 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>NSF's GENI program seeks to enable experiments that run within virtual network topologies built-to-order from testbed infrastructure offered by multiple providers (domains). GENI is often viewed as a network testbed integration effort, but behind it is an ambitious vision for multi-domain infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). This paper presents ExoGENI, a new GENI testbed that links GENI to two advances in virtual infrastructure services outside of GENI: open cloud computing (OpenStack) and dynamic circuit fabrics. ExoGENI orchestrates a federation of independent cloud sites and circuit providers through their native IaaS interfaces, and links them to other GENI tools and resources. The ExoGENI deployment consists of cloud site ``racks'' on host campuses within the US, linked with national research networks and other circuit networks through programmable exchange points. The ExoGENI sites and control software are enabled for software-defined networking using OpenFlow. ExoGENI offers a powerful unified hosting platform for deeply networked, multi-domain, multi-site cloud applications. We intend that ExoGENI will seed a larger, evolving platform linking other third-party cloud sites, transport networks, and other infrastructure services, and that it will enable real-world deployment of innovative distributed services and new visions of a Future Internet. |

| 907 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we argue that federation of cloud systems requires a standard API for users to create, manage, and destroy virtual objects, and a standard naming scheme for virtual objects.

We introduce a simple naming scheme for virtual objects, and discuss its implementation. |

| 920 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Systems virtualization offers convenient means for sharing networking infrastructure while improving its utilization. This study addresses the challenges of virtualizing a commercial off-the-shelf 4G mobileWiMAX basestation. We highlight additions and modifications needed in theWiMAX network architecture for supporting multiple simultaneous virtual basestations on a single physical basestation. The most prominent features provided by the proposed virtual basestation framework include the capability to perform all frame switching at layer-2, and control mechanisms to provide isolation across slices needed to ensure experiment repeatability. By prototyping on a commercial WiMAX radio, this paper shows the usage of the virtual basestation system for housing mobile virtual network operators and testbeds alike. A use case is shown where the virtual basestation design is used to evaluate mobile handoff schemes. Another usage case is shown for optimizing a video delivery on the edge. The video delivery use case is used to show performance improvements of up to 5dB in the PSNR. Evaluation of prototype shows a significant improvement in the slice isolation, with aggregate throughput improvements of up to 192% achievable through fair resource allocation. |

| 946 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Popular applications such as email, photo/video galleries, and file storage are increasingly being supported by cloud platforms in residential, academia and industry communities. The next frontier for these user communities will be to transition 'traditional desktops' that have dedicated hardware and software configurations into 'virtual desktop clouds' that are accessible via thin-clients. In this paper, we describe experiences from our research and development of virtual desktop cloud experiments in GENI. Our experimentation goal is to investigate and develop optimal resource allocation frameworks and performance bench- marking tools that can enable provisioning (i.e., resource sizing) and placement (i.e., resource mapping) of thin-client based virtual desktops at Internet-scale. We first motivate why virtual desktop cloud experiments cannot be done only at a table-top level, and why infrastructures such as GENI are essential. Next, we detail the methodology of our completed ” provisioning” experiments, and our work-in-progress ” placement” experiments in GENI that leverage multiple kinds of GENI resources such as aggregates, measurement services and experimenter workflow tools, as well as commercial software. Lastly, we present our vision on how our experiment slice setup and application development experiences, as well as outcomes can be leveraged in classroom labs, and 'living labs' that use GENI resources to foster training and wide- adoption of Future Internet applications. |

| 972 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper proposes a systematic procedure for experimentation of Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) on the ORBIT testbed. MANETs have attracted significant re- search interests in recent years. Most of routing or file sharing algorithms in MANETs were only evaluated by theoretical analysis or simulations because of the requirement of large scale networks. However, due to the distinctive properties of MANETs, such as mobility and decentralized structure, it has been non-trivial to deploy a real testbed for the verification. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) project sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) provides an exploratory environment for academic real-world experiments, such as the ORBIT testbed. A stable and repeatable procedure for experimentation on real testbeds is necessary and important to assure the validity of results. In this paper, a MANET routing algorithm, namely LORD, was tested on the ORBIT testbed, using the proposed procedure. Specifically, we first configure the wireless interface on each node to enable the communication between each pair of nodes. Then a set of methods are adopted to construct the MANETs scenario for test. The network status is monitored throughout the entire duration of experiments. Finally, the experiment results of LORD on the GENI ORBIT testbed are demonstrated. |

| 985 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The research community has established that WiMAX networks suffer from Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerabilities. In this paper, we analyze how WiMAX system parameter settings increase or decrease DoS vulnerabilities of WiMAX networks. The behavior of the WiMAX MAC level protocol is sensitive to the settings of core system parameters. Unlike traditional network-based DoS attacks, attacks resulting from parameter misconfiguration are difficult for network operators to detect. We focus on bandwidth contention resolution aspects of the WiMAX MAC protocol. Simulations are performed using the ns-2 simulator. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) techniques on the resulting simulation data identify which bandwidth contention resolution parameter combinations are crucial for configuring WiMAX to be less vulnerable to DoS attacks. |

| 1011 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditionally, testbeds for networking and systems research have been stand-alone facilities: each is owned and operated by a single administrative entity, and is intended to be used independently of other testbeds. However, this isolated facility model is at odds with researchers' ever-increasing needs for experiments at larger scale and with a broader diversity of network technologies. The research community will be much better served by a federated model. In this model, each federated testbed maintains its own autonomy and unique strengths, but all federates work together to make their resources available under a common framework. Our challenge, then, is to design a federated testbed framework that balances competing needs: We must establish trust, but at the same time maintain the autonomy of each federated facility. While providing a unified interface to a broad set of resources, we need to expose the diversity that makes them valuable. Finally, our federation should work smoothly in a coordinated fashion, but avoid central points of failure and inter-facility dependencies. We argue that treating testbed design as a federated distributed systems problem is an effective approach to achieving this balance. The technique is illustrated through the example of ProtoGENI, a system we have designed, built, and operated according to the federated model. |

| 1024 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A major difficulty in the design, study, and implementation of wireless protocols and applications is the multitude of nondeterministic factors (e.g. interference, weather conditions, competing traffic) that can affect their performance. For this reason, testbeds that enable researchers to quantify these influences have become increasingly essential in the wireless research community. The growing sophistication of wireless testbeds and the wide array of services they can provide to researchers have advanced the field tremendously. Toward this end, we present an early implementation of an instrumentation and measurement framework that we have deployed on an open-access 802.16e wireless research testbed at the Polytechnic Institute of NYU. We have created a set of tools to allow experimenters to routinely collect measurements of environmental conditions during experiment runtime. These tools integrate high volumes of multidimensional measurement data from a diverse array of sources, including measurements from software defined radio peripherals, sensors, and network device drivers. With this, we aim to give researchers the ability to conduct rigorous and repeatable over-the-air experiments. We also foresee potential applications for this framework beyond its use in experiments, such as in long-term testbed monitoring. |

| 1063 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Offloading has emerged as a promising idea to allow handheld devices to access intensive applications without performance or energy costs. This could be particularly useful for enterprises seeking to run line-of-business applications on handhelds. However, we must address two practical roadblocks in order to make offloading amenable for enterprises: (i) ensuring data privacy and the use of trusted offloading resources, and (ii) accommodating offload at scale with diverse handheld objectives and compute resource capabilities. We present the design and implementation of an Enterprise-Centric Offloading System (ECOS) which augments prior offloading proposals to address these issues. ECOS uses a logically central controller to opportunistically leverage diverse compute resources, while tightly controlling where specific applications offload depending on privacy, performance, and energy constraints of users and applications.

| 1076 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>eXpressive Internet Architecture (XIA) [1] is an architecture that natively supports multiple communication types and allows networks to evolve their abstractions and functionality to accommodate new styles of communication over time. XIA embeds an elegant mechanism for handling unforeseen communication types for legacy routers. In this demonstration, we show that XIA overcomes three key barriers in network evolution (outlined below) by (1) allowing end-hosts and applications to start using new communication types (e.g., service and content) before the network supports them, (2) ensuring that upgrading a subset of routers to support new functionalities immediately benefits applications, and (3) using the same mechanisms we employ for 1 and 2 to incrementally deploy XIA in IP networks. |

| 1089 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Much of the GENI effort in developing network testbeds has been focused on building the control frameworks needed to allocate and initialize the network resources that make up an experiment. We argue that building the instrumentation and measurement system to monitor and capture the behavior of the network is just as important and challenging as setting up the network itself, especially in a virtualized and federated environment where getting information from experimental nodes is too complicated and too much to handle for a typical user. In this paper, we describe the design of an instrumentation and measurement infrastructure that allows users to monitor their experiments. The challenge that virtualization and federation of GENI testbeds bring to instrumentation and monitoring is how to hide the details of instrumentation setup from users so that users do not need to be experts in system administration or network management of virtualized and federated systems, but are still able to ” see” what is going on with their experiments. Our instrumentation tool sets up experiment-specific monitoring infrastructure that is tailored to capture, record, and display only information associated with that experiment. Our tools are currently available in GENI, and we present a simple example of how to use them to instrument an experiment. |

| 1102 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Over the last few years the National Science Foundation (NSF) has been investing in and developing a new network called GENI, a wide-area testbed network for at-scale experimentation with future internet designs. The GENI network has recently become available for use and is beginning to attract users. In this paper, we take a closer look at GENI with a particular focus on how GENI can be used to enhance education in the areas of computer science and computer engineering. We describe what GENI is, the resources available in GENI, and how instructors might use GENI in their classes. Being early adopters, we describe our experience using GENI in our classes, and we point out various features and challenges of using GENI. Finally, we provide tips and pointers to instructors who are interested in incorporating GENI into their own classes. |

| 1115 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization is becoming a fundamental building block of future Internet architectures. Although the underlying network infrastructure needed to dynamically create and deploy custom virtual networks is rapidly taking shape ( e.g., GENI), constructing and using a virtual network is still a challenging and labor intensive task, one best left to experts. In this paper, we present the concept of a Packaged Virtual Network (PVN), that enables normal users to easily download, deploy and use application-specific virtual networks. At the heart of our approach is a PVN Hypervisor that ” runs” a PVN by allocating the virtual network resources needed by the PVN and then connecting the PVN's participants into the network on demand. To demonstrate our PVN approach, we implemented a multicast PVN that runs on the PVN hypervisor prototype using ProtoGENI as the underlying virtual network, allowing average users to create their own private multicast network. |

| 1128 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Internet was designed to always find a route if there is a policy-compliant path. However, in many cases, connectivity is disrupted despite the existence of an underlying valid path. The research community has focused on short-term outages that occur during route convergence. There has been less progress on addressing avoidable long-lasting outages. Our measurements show that long-lasting events contribute significantly to overall unavailability. To address these problems, we develop LIFEGUARD, a system for automatic failure localization and remediation. LIFEGUARD uses active measurements and a historical path atlas to locate faults, even in the presence of asymmetric paths and failures. Given the ability to locate faults, we argue that the Internet protocols should allow edge ISPs to steer traffic to them around failures, without requiring the involvement of the network causing the failure. Although the Internet does not explicitly support this functionality today, we show how to approximate it using carefully crafted BGP messages. LIFEGUARD employs a set of techniques to reroute around failures with low impact on working routes. Deploying LIFEGUARD on the Internet, we find that it can effectively route traffic around an AS without causing widespread disruption. |

| 1141 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Networks are complex and prone to bugs. Existing tools that check configuration files and data-plane state operate offline at timescales of seconds to hours, and cannot detect or prevent bugs as they arise. Is it possible to check network-wide invariants in real time, as the network state evolves? The key challenge here is to achieve extremely low latency during the checks so that network performance is not affected. In this paper, we present a preliminary design, VeriFlow, which suggests that this goal is achievable. VeriFlow is a layer between a software-defined networking controller and network devices that checks for network-wide invariant violations dynamically as each forwarding rule is inserted. Based on an implementation using a Mininet OpenFlow network and Route Views trace data, we find that VeriFlow can perform rigorous checking within hundreds of microseconds per rule insertion. |

| 1154 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>FiRST (Future Internet Research for Sustainable Test-bed) is the future internet platform development project being performed in Korea. The goal of the project is to create the virtualized and dynamic service creation environments over future internet networks; it is an experimental project to realize future innovative service ideas over real network environments. Among this, cloud computing is the key enabler to control and allocate virtualized network resources (such as CPU, storage, and virtualized network configuration) for the requested services. However, researches on interworking between future internet and cloud computing is in initial phase. In this paper, we propose the FiRST Cloud Aggregate Manager (AM) based on GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovation) AM Application Programming Interface (API) for the federation between future internet test-bed and open source OpenStack cloud computing platform. After that, we propose the zero-client service for mobile cloud management. In order to control the zero-client service, we develop Cloud Mobility Client/Server. And, we validate and verified our FiRST Cloud AM and zero-client service by developing experimental test-bed. Through this test-bed, we confirm that the proposed FiRST Cloud AM and zero-client service efficiently interworks with future internet control plane framework by using GENI Control Framework (GCF) tools. |

| 1167 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Dedicating high-end servers for executing scientific applications that run intermittently, such as severe weather detection or generalized weather forecasting, wastes resources. While the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model used by today's cloud platforms is well-suited for the bursty computational demands of these applications, it is unclear if the network capabilities of today's cloud platforms are sufficient. In this paper, we analyze the networking capabilities of multiple commercial (Amazon's EC2 and Rackspace) and research (GENICloud and ExoGENI cloud) platforms in the context of a Nowcasting application, a forecasting algorithm for highly accurate, near-term, e.g., 5-20 minutes, weather predictions. The application has both computational and network requirements. While it executes rarely, whenever severe weather approaches, it benefits from an IaaS model; However, since its results are time-critical, enough bandwidth must be available to transmit radar data to cloud platforms before it becomes stale. We conduct network capacity measurements between radar sites and cloud platforms throughout the country. Our results indicate that ExoGENI cloud performs the best for both serial and parallel data transfer with an average throughput of 110.22 Mbps and 17.2 Mbps, respectively. We also found that the cloud services perform better in the distributed data transfer case, where a subset of nodes transmit data in parallel to a cloud instance. Ultimately, we conclude that commercial and research clouds are capable of providing sufficient bandwidth for our real-time Nowcasting application. |

| 1178 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Dedicating high end servers for short-term execution of scientific applications such as weather forecasting wastes resources. Cloud platforms IaaS model seems well suited for applications which are executed on an irregular basis and for short duration. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of research testbed cloud platforms such as GENICloud and ORCA cloud clusters for our real-time scientific application of short-term weather forecasting called Nowcasting. In this paper, we evaluate the network capabilities of these research cloud testbeds for our real-time application of weather forecasting. In addition, we evaluate the computation time of executing Nowcasting on each cloud platform for weather data collected from real weather events. We also evaluate the total time taken to generate and transmit short-term forecast images to end users with live data from our own radar on campus. We also compare the performance of each of these clusters for Nowcasting with commercial cloud services such as Amazon's EC2. The results obtained from our measurement show that cloud testbeds are suitable for real-time application experiments to be carried out on a cloud platform. |

| 1191 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The architectural simplicity of the core Internet is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, its agnostic nature paved the way for endless innovations of end-to-end applications. On the other hand, the inherent limitation of this simplicity makes it difficult to add new functions to the network core itself. This is exacerbated by the conservative tendency of commercial entities to l̈eave well-enough alone,̈ leading to the current situation often referred to as the ossification of the Internet. For decades, there has been practically no new functionality that has been added to the core Internet on a large scale. This thesis explores the possibility of enabling in-network services towards the goal of overcoming the ossification of the Internet. Our ultimate goal is to provide a common run-time environment supported by all Internet nodes and a wide-area deployment mechanism, so that network services can be freely installed, removed, and migrated among Internet nodes of all kinds–from a backbone router to a set-top box at home. In that vision of a future Internet, there is little difference between servers and routers for the purpose of running network services. Services can run anywhere on the Internet. Application service providers will have the freedom to choose the best place to run their code. This thesis presents NetServ, our first step to realize the vision of network services running anywhere on the Internet. NetServ is a node architecture for dynamically deploying in-network services on edge routers. Network functions and applications are implemented as software modules which can be deployed at any NetServ-enabled node on the Internet, subject to policy restrictions. The NetServ framework provides a common execution environment for service modules and the ability to dynamically install and remove the services without restarting the nodes. There are many challenges in designing such a system. The main contribution of this thesis lies in meeting those challenges. First, we recognize that the primary impetus for adopting new technologies is economics. To address the challenge of providing economic incentives for enabling in-network services, we demonstrate how NetServ can facilitate an economic alliance between content providers and ISPs. Using NetServ, content providers and the ISPs operating at the network edge (aka eyeball ISPs) can enter into a mutually beneficial economic relationship. ISPs make their NetServ-enabled edge routers available for hosting content providers' applications and contents. Content providers can operate closer to end users by deploying code modules on NetServ-enabled edge routers. We make our case by presenting NetServ applications which represent four concrete use cases. Second, our node architecture must support both traditional server applications and in-network packet processing applications since content providers' applications running on ISPs' routers will combine the traits of both. To address this challenge, NetServ framework can host a packet processing module that sits in the data path, a server module that uses the TCP/IP stack in the traditional way, or a combined module that does both. NetServ provides a unified runtime environment between routers and servers, taking us a step closer to the vision of the unified runtime available on all Internet nodes. Third, we must provide a fast and streamlined deployment mechanism. Content providers should be able to deploy their applications at any NetServ-enabled edge router on the Inter- net, given that they have proper authorizations. Moreover, in some application scenarios, content providers may not know the exact locations of the target routers. Content providers need a way to send a message to install or remove an application module towards a network destination, and have the NetServ-enabled routers located in the path catch and act on the message. To address this challenge, we adopted on-path signaling as the deployment mechanism for NetServ. A NetServ signaling message is sent in an IP packet towards a destination. The packet gets forwarded by IP routers as usual, but when it transits a NetServ-enabled router, the message gets intercepted and passed to the NetServ control layer. Fourth, a NetServ-enabled router must support the concurrent executions of multiple without restarting the nodes. There are many challenges in designing such a system. The main contribution of this thesis lies in meeting those challenges. First, we recognize that the primary impetus for adopting new technologies is economics. To address the challenge of providing economic incentives for enabling in-network services, we demonstrate how NetServ can facilitate an economic alliance between content providers and ISPs.

The packet gets forwarded by IP routers as usual, but when it transits a NetServ-enabled router, the message gets intercepted and passed to the NetServ control layer. Fourth, a NetServ-enabled router must support the concurrent executions of multiple content providers' applications. Each content provider's execution environment must be isolated from one another, and the resource usage of each must be controlled. To address the challenge of providing a robust multi-user execution environment, we chose to run NetServ modules in user space. This is in stark contrast to most programmable routers, which run service modules in kernel space for fast packet processing. Furthermore, NetServ modules are written in Java and run in Java Virtual Machines (JVMs). Our choice of user space execution and JVM allows us to leverage the decades of technology advances in operating systems, virtualization, and Java. Lastly, in order to host the services of a large number of content providers, NetServ must be able to scale beyond the single-box architecture. We address this challenge with the multi-box lateral expansion of NetServ using the OpenFlow forwarding engine. In this extended architecture, multiple NetServ nodes are attached to an OpenFlow switch, which provides a physically separate forwarding plane. The scalability of user services is no longer limited to a single NetServ box. Additionally, this thesis presents our prior work on improving service discovery in local and global networks. The service discovery work makes indirect contribution because the limitations of local and overlay networks encountered during those studies eventually led us to investigate in-network services, which resulted in NetServ. Specifically, we investigate the issues involved in bootstrapping large-scale structured overlay networks, present a tool to merge service announcements from multiple local networks, and propose an enhancement to structured overlay networks using link-local multicast. |

| 1204 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We propose an in-network caching architecture using Open-Flow to coordinate caching decisions in the network. Our scheme, called CacheFlow, extends the cache-and-forward concept by moving contents closer to the clients hop-by-hop using TCP for sending requests and retrieving contents. As such, CacheFlow can be incrementally implemented and deployed in the real network. In this paper, we present a simulation study of several caching policies, including a random cache policy, a statically optimal cache placement policy and a new disk placement strategy that places popular contents at the c̈enter ̈of the network. Experimental results show that simple in-network caching policies can be realized using today's technology to improve network performance. |

| 1230 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In recent times, the cloud computing based delivery model has been proven to reduce enterprise IT costs and complexities. In contrast to traditional enterprise IT solutions, the cloud computing model moves the application software and data to remote servers in large datacenters, which raises many security challenges. One of the critical challenges is the inability to characterize the impact of the vulnerabilities of routers on the cloud security and performance guarantees. In this paper, we analyze the degree of security provided by routers to data sharing applications deployed in cloud environments that span administrative and network domains. Our analysis is based on examining the security level of network applications on routers which lie between nodes on Planetlab infrastructure. We assume that some of the PlanetLab nodes will share the same wide area network path as the cloud servers. Our preliminary results confirm that the majority of the routers are plagued by insecure network protocols, leading to vulnerable routers. These results confirm our hypothesis that the security of the network infrastructure needs to be upgraded to assure the protection of information exchanged on the wide area network path. |

| 1243 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Autonomic management capabilities of the Future Internet can be provided through a recently proposed service architecture called NetServ. It consists of the interconnection of programmable nodes which enable dynamic deployment and execution of network and application services. This paper shows how this architecture can be further improved by introducing the OpenFlow architecture and implementing the OpenFlow controller as a NetServ service, thus improving both the NetServ management performance and its flexibility. These achievements are demonstrated experimentally on the GENI environment, showing the platform self-protecting capabilities in case of a SIP DoS attack. |

| 1256 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud computing enables users to get access to huge amounts of computing resources as desired. There are many popular commercial cloud service providers which provide resources to users at a price. These providers can not be trusted as far as privacy of data is concerned. On the other hand, people do trust their close friends, relatives and other social contacts, albeit, to varying degrees. This paper reports the work-in-progress on S3I(Socially Aware Single System Images) which allows users to form computing clusters using resources owned by their social contacts. It tries to utilize the trust found between people in real life and translate it to provide trustworthy resource sharing between them. |

| 1269 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Location aware applications can benefit from a more accurate yet robust IP geolocation framework. Various approaches to IP geolocation have been well documented. The most recent approach casts IP geolocation as a machine learn- ing classification problem. This approach makes it possible to incorporate both delay and non delay based information. The accuracy of IP geolocation can be improved by incorporating additional types of geolocation information rather relying on network delay alone. To enhance the classification accuracy of the existing classification framework, we expand it to include 6 features (3 of which are novel). We use PlanetLab as a testbed to generate our measurement set. We select 67 PlanetLab nodes within the United States with known geographic location as our landmarks. We test the accuracy of our framework on 23,843 routers given ping measurements from the 67 landmarks. With only three features (average delay, average hops and population density) tested, our new classifier gives a reduced average error distance of 157.81 miles and a median error distance of 0 miles, compared to the present classifier that gives an average error distance of 253.34 miles. This is very promising as we move on to the next phase of incorporating data for the remaining 5 features. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first proposed framework that aims to improve the accuracy of the present classifier based IP geolocation. |

| 1295 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A steady rise in home systems has been seen over the past few years. As more systems are designed and deployed, an appropriate testbed is required to test these systems. Sev- eral systems exist, such as PlanetLab, that currently provide a networking testbed allowing researchers and developers to test and measure various applications. However in the long run such testbeds will be unable to keep up and meet all the demands of many of the large scale modern day peer-to-peer systems. We outline the various challenges and essentials of a networking testbed and we provide an alternate network- ing testbed that is driven by resources that are voluntarily contributed. We talk about the various advantages and dis- advantages of the Seattle system, an open source peer-to- peer computing testbed that has the potential to meet these demands. The testbed is composed of sandboxed resources that are donated by volunteers. Seattle has been deployed for about three years and supports many researchers who are interested in a networking testbed. The testbed consists of over 4100 nodes and is constantly growing. Seattle looks to grow and meet the demands of networking testbeds as they are made. |

| 1308 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are major security threats to the Internet. The distributed structure of these attacks makes it difficult to distinguish between legitimate and attack traffic, making detection difficult. In addition to this challenge, researchers also have to study and find countermeasures against these attacks without using an operational network for testing, since attacks on operational networks inconvenience users. In this paper, we propose a method to perform DDoS analysis on real hardware using real traffic without jeopardizing the original network. We implement our experiments on the Geni testbed using Openflow. We present results from DDoS detection methods using operational traffic. |

| 1321 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Companies, government organizations or institutions from anywhere in the world publish different types of information e.g. news, health alerts, disaster warnings at any time. Rather than consuming all published data, users only desire access to information of interest to themselves irrespective of where the data is located and who publish them. Existing publish/subscribe systems built based on IP-based network can be inefficient and are not flexible enough to meet emerging requirements e.g. deal with mobile users, dynamic contents, searching over encrypted data. Recently content-centric networks have been proposed to provide flexibility to users to access such information. We have designed secure content centric mobile networks that allow users to publish and retrieve contents securely. As with any new architecture, one important issue is to have useful applications that can utilize features provided in the new architecture. In this paper, we describe an Android application we recently developed that allows visitors to explore Lehigh campus based on their expressed interests. Our application utilizes keyword based interest messages to retrieve matching data items of interests to a user. We are giving a demo of Lehigh Explorer at GEC13. |

| 1334 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents an overview of the MobilityFirst network architecture, currently under development as part of the US National Science Foundation's Future Internet Architecture (FIA) program. The proposed architecture is intended to directly address the challenges of wireless access and mobility at scale, while also providing new services needed for emerging mobile Internet application scenarios. After briefly outlining the original design goals of the project, we provide a discussion of the main architectural concepts behind the network design, identifying key features such as separation of names from addresses, public-key based globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) for named objects, global name resolution service (GNRS) for dynamic binding of names to addresses, storage-aware routing and late binding, content- and context-aware services, optional in-network compute layer, and so on. This is followed by a brief description of the MobilityFirst protocol stack as a whole, along with an explanation of how the protocol works at end-user devices and inside network routers. Example of specific advanced services supported by the protocol stack, including multi-homing, mobility with disconnection, and content retrieval/caching are given for illustration. Further design details of two key protocol components, the GNRS name resolution service and the GSTAR routing protocol, are also described along with sample results from evaluation. In conclusion, a brief description of an ongoing multi-site experimental proof-of-concept deployment of the MobilityFirst protocol stack on the GENI testbed is provided. |

| 1347 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In today's world, transmitting data across large bandwidth-delay product (BDP) networks requires special configuration on end users' machines in order to be done efficiently. This added level of complexity creates extra cost and is usually overlooked by users unknowledgeable to the issues. This is one example problem which can be ameliorated with the emerging software defined networking (SDN) paradigm. In an SDN, packet forwarding is controlled via software controllers. In an OpenFlow SDN, a controller can control the forwarding, rewriting, and dropping of packets based on their header attributes. The ability to handle packets in customizable ways in software has significant implications for both users and operators of the network. Via SDN, network providers can easily provide services to enhance users' experience of the network. Steroid OpenFlow Service (SOS) is presented as a solution to seamless enhancement of TCP data transfer throughput over large BDP networks without any modification to the software and configurations on users' machines. SOS utilizes OpenFlow to redirect application specific traffic to application specific service agents. SOS uses service agents on both ends of the connection to seamlessly terminate a user's TCP connection, launch a set of parallel TCP connections, and leverage multiple paths when available to maximize throughput. |

| 1360 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In a software defined network (SDN), packet forwarding is controlled by software controllers. In an OpenFlow SDN, a controller can control the forwarding, rewriting, and dropping of packets based on their header attributes. The ability to handle packets in customizable ways in software has significant implications for both network users and operators. Via software, users can convey application specific expectations while operators can deliver application specific services to enhance user experiences. In this paper, we present the Steroid OpenFlow Services (SOS) paradigm for network services delivery. The paradigm enables operators to deliver network services without any setup requirements on user machines. SOS utilizes OpenFlow to redirect application specific traffic to application specific service agents; SOS also rewrites packet headers for a service to remain seamless to users. This paper presents an example SOS service for optimizing large volume TCP download across a large delay-bandwidth-product wide area network. SOS service agents on both ends of the connection seamlessly terminate a user TCP connection, launch a set of parallel TCP connections, and leverage multiple paths when available to maximize throughput. With the NSF GENI future Internet testbed, a prototype implementation achieved up to 320 times throughput enhancement seamless to the end users. |

| 1373 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we present a hands-on course project that explores the performance of data transfer protocols using a GENI resource. TCP is one of the key topics in networking courses, and understanding its behavior as well as limitations, from real experiments, offers an invaluable and deep learning experience. A protocol's performance is directly impacted by network parameters such as network bandwidth, delay and loss. However, it is difficult to control and even vary those parameters, if it is not evaluated with simulations. GENI facilities conveniently provide a virtual laboratory that enables us to control the network settings with real network systems. Through this educational project, students had an opportunity to control important network parameters, and measure and compare TCP's performance with a UDP-based data transfer protocol, UDT, using EMULAB. Students were enthusiastic to witness the protocols' performances, and the limitations of TCP under a high bandwidth delay product network in the presence of packet loss, and to recognize the importance of protocol design and system issues for the future Internet. |

In addition, while highlighting the challenges faced in construction of DOME, we describe a concrete set of scientific results derived from this experience in a retrospective study. First, we argue that a broad range of mobility experiments could be performed in a testbed which provides the properties of temporal, technological, and spatial diversity. We demonstrate these properties in our testbed through analysis of data collected from DOME over a period of four years. Second, we crystallize a set of design principles that others should use when constructing testbeds of their own, including those related to deploying and managing a diverse testbed, distributing experiments remotely, and fostering collaborations among testbed stakeholders. Finally, using traces collected by DOME, we provide insights into several important problems in mobile systems research. |

| 1412 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud computing is an emerging paradigm for on-demand access to computing resources over the network. Beyond early Software as a Service (SaaS) offerings, there is an increasing interest in the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model where users request specific storage, networking, and computing resources to meet their application needs. To provision the network in a cloud, IaaS providers, such as the Amazon Web Services, allow users to choose their IP addresses, which can be associated with a dynamic set of virtual hosts (Elastic IP) with VPN, dynamic DNS, and dynamic firewall services. In this paper, we analyze a range of cloud network provisioning needs and the means to realize them in an OpenFlow network. We present an OpenFlow enabled framework for cloud network provisioning, based on the Open- Nebula cloud provisioning engine. Specifically, we demonstrate an Elastic IP service compatible with the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) API. This demonstration is available on the Clemson OneCloud IaaS offering. Ongoing efforts focus on the enablement of additional cloud network services for campus networks and wide area experimental networks like the National Science Foundation's GENI network. |

| 1425 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a reference implementation of an Elastic IP and Security Group service using the OpenFlow protocol. The implementation is the first to present integration of OpenFlow within a virtual machine provisioning engine and an API for enabling such services. In this paper the OpenNebula system is used. The Elastic IP and Security Groups services are similar to the Amazon EC2 services and present a compatible Query API implemented by OpenNebula. The core of the implementation relies on the integration of an OpenFlow controller (NOX) with the EC2 server. Flow rules can be inserted in the OpenFlow controller using the EC2 API. These rules are then used by Open vSwitch bridges on the underlying hypervisor to manage network traffic. The reference implementation presented opens the door for more advanced cloud networking services that leverage principles from software defined networking including virtual private cloud, virtual data center spanning multiple availability zones, as well as seamless migration over wide are networks. |

| 1438 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We design and implement a network-coding-enabled relia- bility architecture for next generation wireless networks. Our network coding (NC) architecture uses a flexible thread-based design, with each encoder-decoder instance applying systematic intra-session random lin- ear network coding as a packet erasure code at the IP layer. Using GENI WiMAX platforms, a series of point-to-point transmission experiments were conducted to compare the performance of the NC architecture to that of the Automatic Repeated reQuest (ARQ) and Hybrid ARQ (HARQ) mechanisms. In our scenarios, the proposed architecture is able to decrease packet loss from around 11-32% to nearly 0%; compared to HARQ and joint HARQ/ARQ mechanisms, the NC architecture offers up to 5.9 times gain in throughput and 5.5 times reduction in end-to- end file transfer delay. By establishing NC as a potential substitute for HARQ/ARQ, our experiments offer important insights into cross-layer designs of next generation wireless networks. |

| 1451 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The ability to capture and process packet-level data is of intrinsic importance in network testbeds that offer broad experimental capabilities to researchers. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a passive measurement system for network testbeds called GIMS. The system enables users to specify and centrally manage packet capture on a set of dedicated measurement nodes deployed on links in a distributed testbed. The first component of GIMS is a scalable experiment management system that coordinates multi-tenant access to measurement nodes through a web-based user interface. The second component of GIMS is a node management system that enables (i) local processing on packets (e.g., flow aggregation and sampling), (ii) meta-data to be added to captured packets (e.g., timestamps), (iii) packet anonymization per local security policy, and (iv) flexible data storage including transfer to remote archives. We demonstrate the capabilities of GIMS through a set of micro-benchmarks that specifically highlight the performance of the node management system deployed on a commodity workstation. Our implementations are openly available to the community and our development efforts are on-going. |

| 1464 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a novel mobility architecture called Virtual Mobility Domains that is designed to work with the Floating Cloud Tiered Internetworking model. Virtual Mobility Domains supports both inter Autonomous System (macro) and intra Autonomous System (micro) mobility by leveraging a tiered addressing, a network cloud concept, and a unique packet forwarding scheme introduced by the Floating Cloud Tiered Internetworking model. The proposed mobility architecture is distinct from others by not using IP addressing and classic routing protocols, and deploying user-centric overlapping mobility domains. The comparative simulation study of Virtual Mobility Domains against Mobile IPv6, Hierarchical Mobile IPv6, and Proxy Mobile IPv6 using OPNET shows that Virtual Mobility Domains brings lower latency, lesser signaling overhead, and fewer packets loss during handoffs, specially during inter Autonomous System roaming. The results highlight the potential for a seamless mobility management. |

| 1477 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a community-driven research and development effort to build a collaborative and exploratory network experimentation platform—a 'virtual laboratory' for the design, implementation, and evaluation of future networks. The PrimoGENI project enables real-time network simulation by extending an existing network simulator to become part of the GENI federation to support large-scale experiments involving physical, simulated, and emulated network entities. In this paper, we describe a novel design of PrimoGENI, which aims at supporting realistic, scalable, and flexible network experiments with real-time simulation and emulation capabilities. We present a flexible emulation infrastructure that allows both remote client machines, local cluster nodes running virtual machines, and external networks to seamlessly interoperate with the simulated network running within a designated 'slice' of resources. We present the results of our preliminary validation and performance studies to demonstrate the capabilities as well as limitations of our approach. |

| 1490 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents the model splitting method for large-scale interactive network simulation, which addresses the separation of concerns between network researchers, who focus on developing complex network models and conducting large-scale network experiments, and simulator developers, who are concerned with developing efficient simulation engines to achieve the best performance on parallel platforms. Modeling splitting divides the system into an interactive model to support user interaction, and an execution model to facilitate parallel processing. We describe techniques to maintain consistency and real-time synchronization between the two models. We also provide solutions to reduce the memory complexity of large network models and to ensure data persistency and access efficiency for out-of-core processing. |

| 1503 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) make virtual desktop cloud (VDC) resource provisioning decisions within desktop pools based on user groups and their application pro- files. Such provisioning is aimed to not only satisfy acceptable user quality of experience (QoE) levels and provide high scalability, but also provide ” knobs” to CSPs to operate according their economic policies. The next challenge is to place user VD requests in an optimal and fast manner across distributed data centers. The placement decisions are influenced by session latency, load balancing and operation cost constraints. In this work, we identify the resource fragmentation problem that occurs when placement is done opportunistically to minimize provisioning time and deliver satisfactory user QoE. To solve this problem, which inherently is an NP-Hard problem, we propose a defragmentation scheme that has fast convergence time and has three levels of complexity: (i) ” Economics-directed resource allocation model” (E-RAM) that considers economic policies while optimizing resource provisioning within a data center (ii) ” Cost-aware Utility-maximal Local Placement” to optimize resource provisioning between multiple data centers, and (iii) ” Costaware Utility-maximal Global Placement with Migration” to optimize resource provisioning using cost-aware and utility-maximal VD re-allocations and migrations - to increase scalability and performance. We evaluate our E-RAM, Cost-aware Utility-maximal Local and Global Placement schemes using a novel ” VDC-Sim” simulator that we have developed in this study. Our simulations leverage profiles of user groups and their applications within desktop pools, obtained from a real VDC testbed. We also implemented our schemes in a real cloud infrastructure. Our results demonstrate that defragmentation is an important optimization step and defragmentation together with E-RAM and our Cost-aware Utilitymaximal placement schemes can enable CSPs to achieve optimal user QoE, higher VDC scalability, improved system performance and resilience. |

| 1516 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Low latency is critical for interactive networked applications. But while we know how to scale systems to increase capacity, reducing latency --- especially the tail of the latency distribution --- can be much more difficult. We argue that the use of redundancy in the context of the wide-area Internet is an effective way to convert a small amount of extra capacity into reduced latency. By initiating redundant operations across diverse resources and using the first result which completes, redundancy improves a system's latency even under exceptional conditions. We demonstrate that redundancy can significantly reduce latency for small but critical tasks, and argue that it is an effective general-purpose strategy even on devices like cell phones where bandwidth is relatively constrained. |

| 1529 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditionally, test beds for networking and systems research have been designed as monolithic facilities: they contain a single root of trust. The resources in the facility are assumed to be administered by a single entity or a set of mutually-trusting entities. All user management, including vouching for users' identities and taking responsibility for their actions, is done using a flat trust structure or a simple hierarchy with the facility itself as the root. This design is not a good match for test beds that are composed of multiple autonomous facilities, or in which different parts of the test bed operate under different trust models. In this paper, we argue that partitioned trust is increasingly important in large scale and security-sensitive test beds. We present a design that accomplishes this partitioning by using multiple trust roots. The trust domains created by these roots may decide, independently, how much trust to place in each other, and can apply policies based on the domain or principal that originates a request. The domains could represent separately administered facilities (as in a federated test bed), or they could represent sections within a single facility that run with different trust models (for example, with differing levels of security.) We have implemented this design in ProtoGENI, a control framework for federated test beds, we include details of this implementation and share experiences from using it in an active deployment with hundreds of users. |

| 1546 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Providing remote access and collaboration technologies to advanced manufacturing communities are exciting prospects due to the growth of the global marketplace and the pervasiveness of high-speed networks. There is a need to develop reliable protocols that extend beyond the current capabilities of typical TCP/IP connections that do not provide sufficient redundancy for controlling remote processes in manufacturing facilities. In addition, there is a need to suitably configure remote access protocol configurations that deliver satisfactory user experience amongst distributed collaborators synchronously working on manufacturing design workflows using cloud-hosted simulation software. In this paper, we present two case studies and early results that leverage the GENI Future Internet infrastructure for experimentation and development of new services that address such advanced manufacturing needs. Both case studies pivot around the idea of removing the need for users to have physical access to manufacturing resources and thus enable remote access to cloud-hosted services that use Future Internet capabilities for cost/time savings and improved convenience. |

| 1559 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Popular applications such as email, photo/video galleries, and file storage are increasingly being supported by cloud platforms in residential, academia and industry communities. The next frontier for these user communities will be to transition `traditional desktops' that have dedicated hardware and software configurations into `virtual desktop clouds' that are accessible via thin-clients. In this paper, we describe an intelligent resource placement framework for thin-client based virtual desktops. The framework leverages principles of softwaredefined networking and features a `unified resource broker' that uses special `marker packets' for: (a) ” route setup” when handling non-IP traffic between thin-client sites and data centers, (b) ” path selection” and ” load balancing” of virtual desktop flows to improve performance of interactive applications and video playback, and to cope with faults such as link-failures or Denialof-Service cyber-attacks. In addition, we detail our framework implementation within a virtual desktop cloud (VDC) setup in a multi-domain Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) Future Internet testbed spanning backbone and access networks. We present empirical results from our experimentation that leverages OpenFlow programmable networking, as well as perfSONAR instrumentation-and-measurement capabilities for validating our framework in GENI under realistic settings. Our results demonstrate the importance of scheduling regulated measurements that can be used for intelligent resource placement decisions. Our results also show the feasibility and benefits of using OpenFlow controller applications for path selection and load balancing between thin-client sites and data centers in VDCs. |

This facility integrates a real-time power system emulation lab with the GENI network and its associated cloud testbeds. The dynamic responses from the power system emulator are captured via real hardware Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) that are synchronized with the time-scale of the simulations via a common GPS reference. These responses are then sent to the computing and storage resource in GENI using the IEEE C37.118 protocol, running the smart grid control and management application simulations via QoS-guaranteed communications channels, all provisioned in a dynamic fashion. |

| 1585 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we focus on distributed file search over a delay tolerant network (DTN) formed by mobile devices that exhibit the characteristics of social networks. Current file search methods in MANETs/DTNs are either content-based or contact-based. The former builds routing tables for node contents but is not resilient to high node mobility, while the latter exploits node contact patterns in the social networks but may lead to high latency. Recent research also reveal the importance of interests in realizing efficient file dissemination in DTNs. In this paper, we first analyze node interest and mobility from real traces, which confirms the shortcomings of a contact based method and show the importance of considering both content/interest and contact in file search. We then propose Cont2, a social-aware file search method which leverages both node social interests (content) and contact patterns to enhance search efficiency. First, considering people with common interests tend to share files and gather together, Cont2 virtually groups common-interest nodes into a community to direct file search. Second, considering human mobility follows a certain pattern, Cont2 exploits nodes that have high contact frequency with the queried content. Third, Cont2 also exploits active nodes that have more connections to others as a complementary approach to expedite file search. Trace-driven experimental on the real-world GENI test bed and NS-2 simulator show that Cont2 can significantly improve the search efficiency compared to current methods. |

| 1598 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We demonstrate the dynamic layer instantiation feature of RINA by creating on the fly a new, higher level Virtual Private Cloud DIF. The demonstration includes two IPC processes, VPC1 and VPC2, that initially use two separate private DIFs — an Enterprise DIF and a Cloud Provider DIF — to communicate with their respective local processes. Later on, an enterprise application process App1 asks for a flow service, so as to communicate with App2, a remote application process on the Cloud Provider DIF. Such request, handled by the underlying communication process VPC1, cannot occur unless there is a common underlying Virtual Private Cloud DIF to which both VPC1 and VPC2 subscribe. We demonstrate this dynamic instantiation of the DIF layer over the GENI testbed. |

| 1611 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In the last few years, there has been an increasing awareness of the need to evaluate new mobile applications and protocols in realistic wireless settings, and platforms such as the GENI WiMAX testbeds have been developed to fulfill this need. However, wireless testbed users have experienced frustration when straightforward usage scenarios do not consistently agree with the high data rates that are advertised by the wireless technology. This work seeks to clarify the performance characteristics of two GENI WiMAX testbeds under various wireless signal conditions and network traffic patterns. By measuring the performance of several popular wireless Internet applications in two very different wireless environments, we gain a deeper understanding of how a researcher may expect the GENI WiMAX platform to behave. Our findings include some counterintuitive results, e.g. that increasing signal quality can reduce application throughput, and that applications using a single TCP flow may achieve as much as 72% less throughput than an application in an identical setting that uses multiple TCP flows. With this work, we hope to help other researchers design realistic experiments on wireless Internet systems, understand the perceived shortcomings of the GENI WiMAX platform, and interpret their experimental results in the context of the wireless setting in which the experiment was conducted. |

| 1624 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Although GENI has been readily embraced by the research community as a testbed for exploring new network architectures and services, its use as an educational tool has not seen the same level of acceptance and usage. There are multiple reasons for this, not the least of which is a lack of good examples showing how to use GENI in an educational setting. This paper attempts to remedy this by describing our experiences using GENI in our networking classes at the University of Kentucky. Using GENI as the experimental basis for the projects in our classes allowed us to leverage several of its rich set of features including its global span of resources, programmability, virtualization, and instrumentation and measurement tools. In particular, we describe two projects that we have used in our networking classes, and we share some of the experience we gained in the process. As a result, these experiences motivated us to develop and integrate new functions into the GENI desktop in order to make it easier to access and control GENI's various resources and tools. |

| 1637 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Network (SDN) structure has been proposed for its flexibility in deployment and management. As an implementation of SDN structure, OpenFlow protocol decouples data plane and control plane so that flexible and programmable installation and management of forwarding rules are allowed. However, on the other hand, the decoupled structure raises additional computational and network resources consumption that even may lead to fatal disasters. In this study, we examine the issues of reliability and scalability of SDN under disaster scenarios on a GENI test-bed. Observations from our experiments show that more attention should be paid to improve the reliability and scalability of SDN and its frameworks. |

| 1650 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Although the underlying network resources needed to support virtualized networks are rapidly becoming available, the tools and abstractions needed to effectively make use of these virtual networks is severely lacking. Although networks like GENI are now available to experimenters, creating an experimental network can still be a daunting and error-prone task. While virtual networks enable experimenters to build tailored networks from the g̈round up,̈ starting from scratch is rarely what an experimenter wants to do. Moreover, the challenges of incorporating real-world users into GENI experiments make it difficult to benefit real users or obtain realistic traffic. In this paper we describe a new service designed to simplify the process of setting up and running GENI experiments while at the same time adding support for real-world users to join GENI experiments. Our approach is based on a network hypervisor service used to deploy ḦyperNets:̈ pre-defined experimental environments that can be quickly and easily created by experimenters. To illustrate the utility and simplicity of our approach, we describe two example HyperNets, and show how our network hypervisor service is able to automatically deploy them on GENI. We then present some initial performance results from our implentation on GENI. Because our network hypervisor is itself a client of GENI (i.e., it calls the GENI AM APIs to create HyperNets), we briefly discuss our experience using GENI and the challenges we encountered mapping HyperNets onto the GENI framework. |

| 1663 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has been widely recognized as a promising way to deploy new services and protocols in future networks. The programmability and control offered by SDN networks enables users and applications to define virtually every aspect of the network architecture. Unfortunately, this flexibility comes at a cost - a cost that has the potential to significantly limit its adoption. First, in order to offer complete flexibility, today's SDN networks provide low-level API's on which almost any type of service can be written. In the process, it can actually become more difficult to implement the higher level complex services needed by future networks. Second, emerging SDN networks exhibit a heterogeneity reminiscent of the early Internet, with limited ability to piece together the various SDN platforms being deployed. In this paper we propose a new way to construct SDN networks consisting of multiple SDN providers offering virtualizable networking resources across the Internet. At the heart of our approach is a Network Hypervisor service that is capable of internetworking various SDN providers together. Moreover, our Network Hypervisor builds on the low-level APIs provided by SDNs to create a unified set of high-level abstractions and APIs that greatly simplify the task of building and deploying complex network services over SDN. |

| 1676 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interdomain path changes occur frequently. Because routing protocols expose insufficient information to reason about all changes, the general problem of identifying the root cause remains unsolved. In this work, we design and evaluate PoiRoot, a real-time system that allows a provider to accurately isolate the root cause (the network responsible) of path changes affecting its prefixes. First, we develop a new model describing path changes and use it to provably identify the set of all potentially responsible networks. Next, we develop a recursive algorithm that accurately isolates the root cause of any path change. We observe that the algorithm requires monitoring paths that are generally not visible using standard measurement tools. To address this limitation, we combine existing measurement tools in new ways to acquire path information required for isolating the root cause of a path change. We evaluate PoiRoot on path changes obtained through controlled Internet experiments, simulations, and ïn-the-wild ̈measurements. We demonstrate that PoiRoot is highly accurate, works well even with partial information, and generally narrows down the root cause to a single network or two neighboring ones. On controlled experiments PoiRoot is 100% accurate, as opposed to prior work which is accurate only 61.7% of the time. |

| 1689 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The rapid adoption of mobile devices comes with the growing prevalence of mobile malware. Mobile malware poses serious threats to personal information and creates challenges in securing network. Traditional network services provide connectivity but do not have any direct mechanism for security protection. The emergence of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) provides a unique opportunity to achieve network security in a more efficient and flexible manner. In this paper, we analyze the behaviors of mobile malware, propose several mobile malware detection algorithms, and design and implement a malware detection system using SDN. Our system detects mobile malware by identifying suspicious network activities through real-time traffic analysis, which only requires connection establishment packets. Specifically, our detection algorithms are implemented as modules inside the OpenFlow controller, and the security rules can be imposed in real time. We have tested our system prototype using both a local testbed and GENI infrastructure. Test results confirm the feasibility of our approach. In addition, the stress testing results show that even unoptimized implementations of our algorithms do not affect the performance of the OpenFlow controller significantly. |

| 1715 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As software defined networks (SDN) grow in size and in number, the problem of coordinating the actions of multiple SDN controllers will grow in importance. In this paper, we propose a way of organizing SDN control based on coordinated subgraph shadowing. Graphs are a natural way to think about and describe SDN activity. Subgraphs provide a means to share a subset of a network's resources. Shadowing provides a means to dynamically update shared subgraphs. Leveraging advances in graph databases and our shadowing messaging technique, we discuss our implementation of a multi-domain virtual private network (VPN) using multi-protocol label switching (MPLS). |

| 1728 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The physical and data link layers of the network stack contain valuable information. Unfortunately, a systems programmer would never know. These two layers are often inaccessible in software and much of their potential goes untapped. In this paper we introduce SoNIC, Software-defined Network Interface Card, which provides access to the physical and data link layers in software by implementing them in software. In other words, by implementing the creation of the physical layer bitstream in software and the transmission of this bitstream in hardware, SoNIC provides complete control over the entire network stack in realtime. SoNIC utilizes commodity off-the-shelf multi-core processors to implement parts of the physical layer in software, and employs an FPGA board to transmit optical signal over the wire. Our evaluations demonstrate that SoNIC can communicate with other network components while providing realtime access to the entire network stack in software. As an example of SoNIC's fine-granularity control, it can perform precise network measurements, accurately characterizing network components such as routers, switches, and network interface cards. Further, SoNIC enables timing channels with nanosecond modulations that are undetectable in software. |

| 1741 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditional discrete-event simulation of large-scale networks at the packet level is computationally expensive. This article presents a fast rate-based transmission control protocol (RTCP) traffic model designed to reduce the time and space complexity for simulating network traffic whilst maintaining good accuracy. A distinct feature of the proposed model is that the transmission control protocol (TCP) congestion control behavior is represented using analytical models that describe the send rate at the traffic source as a function of the round-trip time and the packet loss rate at different phases of a TCP connection. Rather than modeling at the granularity of individual packets visiting the intermediate routers, the model approximates traffic flows as a series of rate windows, each consisting of a number of packets considered to possess the same arrival rate. The model calculates the queuing delays and the packet losses as these rate windows traverse the individual network queues along the flow path. The proposed RTCP model is able to achieve a performance advantage over other TCP models, by integrating analytical solutions and aggregating traffic using rate windows. Empirical results show that the RTCP model can correctly capture the overall TCP behavior and achieve a speedup of more than two orders of magnitude over the corresponding detailed packet-oriented simulation. |

| 1754 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper presents a performance evaluation of scientific workflows on networked cloud systems with particular emphasis on evaluating the effect of provisioned network bandwidth on application I/O performance. The experiments were run on ExoGENI, a widely distributed networked infrastructure as a service (NIaaS) testbed. ExoGENI orchestrates a federation of independent cloud sites located around the world along with backbone circuit providers. The evaluation used a representative data-intensive scientific workflow application called Montage. The application was deployed on a virtualized HTCondor environment provisioned dynamically from the ExoGENI networked cloud testbed, and managed by the Pegasus workflow manager. The results of our experiments show the effect of modifying provisioned network bandwidth on disk I/O throughput and workflow execution time. The marginal benefit as perceived by the workflow reduces as the network bandwidth allocation increases to a point where disk I/O saturates. There is little or no benefit from increasing network bandwidth beyond this inflection point. The results also underline the importance of network and I/O performance isolation for predictable application performance, and are applicable for general data-intensive workloads. Insights from this work will also be useful for real-time monitoring, application steering and infrastructure planning for data-intensive workloads on networked cloud platforms. |

| 1767 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Single System Image (SSI) clustering technology hides the distributed nature of the participating resources, and makes them appear as a single homogeneous computing resource to the user. An SSI cluster can utilize all the available processing power and memory from its participating resources. However, using the current implementations, an SSI can only be formed using nodes which are within one-hop distance of each other. This implies that nodes have to be within the same broadcast domain / Local Area Network (LAN) in order to participate in an SSI cluster. This limits the full potential of SSIs. In this research, we propose enhancements to the existing SSI technology to overcome the one-hop limitation, thus enabling nodes over a WAN to form SSI clusters. GENI provides a perfect platform for such experimentation. In this paper, we report our initial success in enabling Transparent Interprocess Communication Protocol (TIPC) over wide area nodes in GENI and progress in backporting the TIPC 2.0 protocol, with support for communication over WANs, to Kerrighed, an open-source software for creating SSIs. |

| 1780 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Wireless networking has recently gained tremendous attention in research and education. Since the concepts taught in wireless courses are difficult to acquire only through lectures, hands-on lab experience is indispensable. While Wi-Fi based networking labs have been introduced before, to the best of our knowledge, labs that use a cellular technology have not been designed yet. Therefore, we present a WiMAX hands-on lab designed for a graduate course in wireless and mobile networking. The lab is based on the mobile WiMAX hardware and software developed and deployed within the GENI WiMAX project. We provide a brief overview of the course and of the main concepts taught in the WiMAX lecture. Then, we describe in detail our WiMAX network and the structure of the lab experiment. The effectiveness in achieving the learning objectives is evaluated via the lab reports submitted by the students. Finally, we review some of the lessons we learned during design and implementation of this lab. These can provide important insights to designers of similar labs. |

| 1806 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Repeatability of network experiments has long been a goal for networking researchers but the lack of a scientific process of experimentation has made this exercise difficult to achieve. In this paper, we demonstrate that, if conducted in a scientific manner, experiments can indeed be repeated in different networks to produce the same results. We ran experiments in our lab, and on two different network configurations in ProtoGENI and demonstrated that we get similar results for network and application performance evaluations. We believe that this is an important step as we take the process of measurement-based networking research from its ad hoc phase into the realm of a scientific process. We also present these experiments using GENI infrastructure as a demonstration for other experimenters to run similar realistic experiments on GENI testbeds. Furthermore, we believe this is the first set of experiments to emulate per-connection Round- Trip-Times in GENI-based experiments. |

| 1832 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>To design secure systems, one needs to understand how attackers use system vulnerabilities in their favor. This requires testing vulnerabilities on operational systems. However, working on operational systems is not always possible because of the risk of disturbance. In this study, we introduce an approach to experimenting using operational system data and performing real attacks without disturbing the original system. We applied this approach to a network security experiment and tested the performance of three detection methods. The approach used in this study can be used when developing systems with Designed-in Security to identify and test system vulnerabilities. |

We present empirical results from our experimentation that leverages OpenFlow programmable networking, as well as cross-traffic capabilities for validating our framework in GENI under realistic settings.

| 1858 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Testbeds play a key role in the advancement of network science and the exploration of new network architectures. Because the scale and scope of any individual testbed is necessarily limited, federation is a useful technique for constructing testbeds that serve a wide range of experimenter needs. In a federated testbed, individual facilities maintain local autonomy while cooperating to provide a unified set of abstractions and interfaces to users. Forming an international federation is particularly challenging, because issues of trust, user access policy, and local laws and regulations are of greater concern that they are for federations within a single country. In this paper, we describe an architecture, based on the US National Science Foundation's GENI project, that is capable of supporting the needs of an international federation. |

| 1884 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>As the Internet becomes increasingly important to all aspects of society, the consequences of disruption become increasingly severe. Thus it is critical to increase the resilience and survivability of future networks. We define resilience as the ability of the network to provide desired service even when challenged by attacks, large-scale disasters, and other failures. This paper describes a comprehensive methodology to evaluate network resilience using a combination of topology generation, analytical, simulation, and experimental emulation techniques with the goal of improving the resilience and survivability of the Future Internet. |

| 1897 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Utility companies are integrating multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) technologies into existing backbone networks, including networks between substations and control centers. MPLS has mechanisms for efficient overlay technologies as well as mechanisms to enhance security: features essential to the functioning of the smart grid. However, with MPLS routing and other switching technologies innovation is restricted to the features enclosed ” in the box.” More specifically, there is no practical way for utility operators or researchers to test new ideas such as alternatives to IP or MPLS on a realistic scale to obtain the experience and confidence necessary for real world deployments. As a result, novel ideas go untested. Conversely, the OpenFlow framework has enabled significant advancements in network research. OpenFlow provides utility operators and researchers the programmability and flexibility necessary to enable innovation in next-generation communication architectures for the smart grid. This level of flexibility allows OpenFlow to provide all features of MPLS and also allows OpenFlow devices to co-exist with existing MPLS devices. The simulation results in this paper demonstrate that OpenFlow performs as well as MPLS, and may therefore be considered an alternative to MPLS for smart grid applications. |

| 1910 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cyber physical systems emerge when physical systems are integrated with communication networks. In particular, communication networks facilitate dissemination of data among components of physical systems to meet key requirements, such as efficiency and reliability, in achieving an objective. In this dissertation, we consider one of the most important cyber physical systems: the smart grid. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) envisions a smart grid that aggressively explores advance communication network solutions to facilitate real-time monitoring and dynamic control of the bulk electric power system. At the distribution level, the smart grid integrates renewable generation and energy storage mechanisms to improve reliability of the grid. Furthermore, dynamic pricing and demand management provide customers an avenue to interact with the power system to determine electricity usage that satisfies their lifestyle. At the transmission level, efficient communication and a highly automated architecture provide visibility in the power system; hence, faults are mitigated faster than they can propagate. However, higher levels of reliability and efficiency rely on the supporting physical communication infrastructure and the network technologies employed. Conventionally, the topology of the communication network tends to be identical to that of the power network. In this dissertation, however, we employ a Demand Response (DR) application to illustrate that a topology that may be ideal for the power network may not necessarily be ideal for the communication network. To develop this illustration, we realize that communication network issues, such as congestion, are addressed by protocols, middle-ware, and software mechanisms. Additionally, a network whose physical topology is designed to avoid congestion realizes an even higher level of performance. For this reason, characterizing the communication infrastructure of smart grids provides mechanisms to improve performance while minimizing cost. Most recently, algebraic connectivity has been used in the ongoing research effort characterizing the robustness of networks to failures and attacks. Therefore, we first derive analytical methods for increasing algebraic connectivity and validate these methods numerically. Secondly, we investigate impact on the topology and traffic characteristics as algebraic connectivity is increased. Finally, we construct a DR application to demonstrate how concepts from graph theory can dramatically improve the performance of a communication network. With a hybrid simulation of both power and communication network, we illustrate that a topology which may be ideal for the power network may not necessarily be ideal for the communication network. To date, utility companies are embracing network technologies such as Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) because of the available support for legacy devices, traffic engineering, and virtual private networks (VPNs) which are essential to the functioning of the smart grid. Furthermore, this particular network technology meets the requirement of non-routability as stipulated by NERC, but these benefits are costly for the infrastructure that supports the full MPLS specification. More importantly, with MPLS routing and other switching technologies, innovation is restricted to the features provided by the equipment. In particular, no practical method exists for utility consultants or researchers to test new ideas, such as alternatives to IP or MPLS, on a realistic scale in order to obtain the experience and confidence necessary for real-world deployments. As a result, novel ideas remain untested. On the contrary, OpenFlow, which has gained support from network providers such as Microsoft and Google and equipment vendors such as NEC and Cisco, provides the programmability and flexibility necessary to enable innovation in next-generation communication architectures for the smart grid. This level of flexibility allows OpenFlow to provide all features of MPLS and allows OpenFlow devices to co-exist with existing MPLS devices. Therefore, in this dissertation we explore a low-cost OpenFlow Software Defined Networking solution and compare its performance to that of MPLS. In summary, we develop methods for designing robust networks and evaluate software defined networking for communication and control in cyber physical systems where the smart grid is the system under consideration. |

| 1923 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation in system-oriented courses is often challenging, due to the raw and complex nature of the underlying infrastructure. In this work, we present our findings in teaching cloud computing to upper-level and graduate level students with GENI testbeds that are in use by the distributed systems community. The possibility of giving students practical and relevant experience was explored in the context of new course assignment objectives. Furthermore, students were able to explore systems concepts using GENI testbeds, and contribute to a collaborative class wide project with medium scale computation using satellite data. Our proposed set of experiments and course project provide a basis for an evaluation of the tradeoffs of teaching cloud and distributed systems. However, the software engineering challenges in these environments proved to be daunting. The amount of installation, configuration, and maintenance of their experiments was more than what students anticipated. The challenges the students faced drove them towards more traditional local development than attempting to work on the testbeds we presented. We hope that our findings provide insight into some of the possibilities to consider when preparing the next generation of computer scientists to engage with software practices and paradigms that are already fundamental in today's highly distributed systems. |

| 1949 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Online service providers aim to provide good performance for an increasingly diverse set of applications and services. One of the most effective ways to improve service performance is to replicate the service closer to the end users. Replication alone, however, has its limits: while operators can replicate static content, wide-scale replication of dynamic content is not always feasible or cost effective. To improve the latency of such services many operators turn to Internet traffic engineering. In this paper, we study the benefits of performing replica-to-end-user mappings in conjunction with active Internet traffic engineering. We present the design of PECAN, a system that controls both the selection of replicas (c̈ontent routing)̈ and the routes between the clients and their associated replicas (n̈etwork routing)̈. We emulate a replicated service that can perform both content and network routing by deploying PECAN on a distributed testbed. In our testbed, we see that jointly performing content and network routing can reduce round-trip latency by 4.3% on average over performing content routing alone (potentially reducing service response times by tens of milliseconds or more) and that most of these gains can be realized with no more than five alternate routes at each replica. |

| 1962 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The inability of the current Internet architecture to accommodate modern requirements has spurred novel designs for future Internet architectures. The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a wide-area virtual network testbed which allows experimentation of such architectures for possible deployment. We have contributed to the efforts of redesigning the Internet with a Recursive InterNetwork Architecture (RINA), and in this paper we demonstrate its practicability by running a prototype on the GENI testbed. We focus on testing two fundamental features of our architecture: security and manageability, discussing in detail how the experimentation was carried, and pointing out some lessons learned using the testbed. |

First, we will deliver an extensive survey of the existing authentication and access control techniques in general. We will then study how authentication and access control policies of GENI projects are implemented and how these mechanisms are integrated into the project control frameworks. Finally, we will summarise the advantages and disadvantages of the authentication and access control methods employed in GENI. We believe that the given review is valuable to those who are interested in the internal design of the current GENI security mechanisms. |

| 2083 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Modern science presents a number of challenges to the cyber-infrastructure supporting it: heterogeneity of the required computational resources, problems associated with storing, preserving and moving large quantities of information, a collaborative nature of scientific activities requiring shared access to resources, continuously growing requirements for computational power and network bandwidth, and, last, but not least, ease of use. In this position paper we explore a new approach to creating and growing such infrastructure based on the principles of federation, enabled by deep programmability of individual infrastructure elements: Software-Defined Infrastructure (SDI). We describe the evolution of the science infrastructure, open research problems and the concrete steps we are taking towards its realization by building a unique, widely distributed science facility in Russia based on SDI and GENI technologies. |

| 2096 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>IPv4 protocol, the famous 32-bit address, has been used in networks for many decades [1] and would not have sustained its usability without NAT. IPv6 protocol with its 128-bit address, provides slight routing information [2]. In this paper, we present ESPM, Embedding Switch ID, Port number and MAC Address within IPv6 protocol and SDN technology, imposing a device connectivity hierarchy upon the address space. We amend the IPv6 global addressing scheme for hosts to include their MAC address as well as the switch ID and Switch port number that they are connected to. This scheme encodes information that would ordinarily require a lookup or query packets(ARP) and decrease CAM table entries on the switch by forwarding the packets using the ESPM algorithm. After processing ESPM algorithm to check for OF controller ID, OF switch ID, and the port ID, the amount of total packets transferred on the network to fulfill an ICMP request-reply process decreased by 28.1% in 1-switch-2 hosts. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of such an addressing scheme, we use POF controller and POF switch [3] to emulate ESPM implementation and then measure the impact on the number of network management packets transferred between hosts during connectivity tests. |

| 2109 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A global federation of experimental facilities in computer networking is being built on the basis of a thin waist, the Slice-based Federation Architecture (SFA), for managing testbed resources in a secure and efficient way. Its success will depend on the existence of tools that allow testbeds to expose their local resources and users to browse and select the resources most appropriate for their experiments. This paper presents two such tools. First, SFAWrap, which makes it relatively easy for a testbed owner to provide an SFA interface for their testbed. Second, MySlice, a tool that allows experimenters to browse and reserve testbed resources via SFA, and that is extensible through a system of plug-ins. Together, these tools should lower the barriers to entry for testbed owners who wish to join the global federation. |

| 2135 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Internet has grown from its inception as a special-purpose internetwork into a general multi-purpose world-wide facility enabling education, commerce, governance, and societal communication, all in the space of a few decades. Over this time, and accelerating in the last decade or so, increasing demands and a growing variety of use cases are posing new challenges on the architecture prompting re-thinking and re-architecting of the network. One thread of research in such architectural considerations involves the issue of choice. The lack of alternative network services brings little economic incentive for the network service providers to make investments to deploy new technologies and improve the quality of their network services. In addition, most user flows goes through several providers, thus there is no effective mechanism in the current Internet to provide feedback to users about which provider is the cause of the performance problems they experience. One solution to these problems is to create a more competitive open market where providers can advertise their network services, and users can choose their desired set of network services to satisfy their needs. In this solution, the users have the option to choose another service if they are not satisfied. However, even in this solution, the root cause of the performance problems still can not be found and it brings us to the lack of a robust feedback capability. In this work, we investigate a solution to this fundamental missing piece of the In- ternet, the measurement and verification capability of the network services offered in the Internet, that indirectly pushes more responsibility to the network providers to fulfill their requirements for high quality services. Our work, while rooted in standard expectations of economic theory, is not in economics itself. Rather, it is in defining, designing, and realizing architectural entities and interactions in technical terms that can realize verification services essential to enabling such economic interactions. Our work is threefold; after giving a literature overview of the research on future Internet and Internet measurement, we first propose an architecture that defines the roles, interactions and design choices to enable a Choice-Based Verification Service. We then describe the results and analysis of a series of tests, which start with our work on measurement frameworks in wired and wireless environments and continue with the simulation, the mechanism introduced and the actual prototype of this work deployed into a real system, the GENI meso-scale testbed. Finally, we investigate and validate whether such informed choices with verification service actually lead to better overall results. We use energy-efficiency as a practical and useful domain for a case study and show the simulation results, which greatly increase the appeal of this work as applicable real-world network services. |

The GEE is intended to provide rapid and convenient access to a distributed infrastructure for simple, easy-to-configure experiments and applications. Specifically, the design goal of the GEE is to permit experimenters and application writers to: (a) allocate a GEE slicelet; (b) deploy a simple experiment or application; (c) run the experiment; (d) collect the results; and (e) tear down the experiment, starting from scratch, within five minutes. The GEE consists of four cooperating services over the GENI infrastructure, which together with pre-allocated slicelets and a pre-allocated network offers a complete, ready to use, sliceable platform over the GENI Infrastructure. |

| 2174 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>IEEE 802.11-based wireless local area networks, referred to as WiFi, have been globally deployed and the vast majority of the mobile devices are currently WiFi-enabled. While WiFi has been proposed for multimedia content distribution, its lack of adequate support for multicast services hinders its ability to provide multimedia content distribution to a large number of devices. In earlier work, we proposed a dynamic scheme called AMuSe that selects a subset of the multicast receivers as feedback nodes. The feedback nodes periodically send information about channel quality to the multicast sender and the sender in turn can optimize multicast service quality, e.g., by dynamically adjusting transmission bit-rate. In this paper, we discuss several experimental results for the performance evaluation of AMuSe. Our experiments use more than 250 nodes placed in a grid topology in the ORBIT testbed. We consider different experimental scenarios: with and without the presence of external noise. Our focus is on studying the performance of WiFi nodes in WiFi multicast and establishing the conditions that make AMuSe an attractive scheme for feedback in WiFi multicast. |

| 2187 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Future Internet and distributed cloud (FIDC) testbeds are rapidly becoming important research and educational resoures worldwide. While FIDC testbeds may be built on diverse technologies, they share the primary capabilities of slicing (virtualized end-to-end configurations of computing, networking, and storage resources) and deep programmability (experimenter programmability of all resources from low level hardware to virtualized components). FIDC testbeds often achieve their deep programmability through software defined networking (SDN) capabilities, which researchers employ both to construct per-application and per-experiment virtual networks, and to intelligently steer traffic throughout the virtual network/cloud environment. |

| 2200 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GENI, the Global Environment for Networking Innovation, is a distributed virtual laboratory for transformative, at-scale experiments in network science, services, and security. Designed in response to concerns over Internet ossification, GENI is enabling a wide variety of experiments in a range of areas, including clean-slate networking, protocol design and evaluation, distributed service offerings, social network integration, content management, and in-network service deployment. Recently, GENI has been leading an effort to explore the potential of its underlying technologies, SDN and GENI racks, in support of university campus network management and applications. With the concurrent deployment of these technologies on regional and national R&E backbones, this will result in a revolutionary new national-scale distributed architecture, bringing to the entire network the shared, deeply programmable environment that the cloud has brought to the datacenter. This deeply programmable environment will support the GENI research mission and as well as enabling research in a wide variety of application areas. |

| 2213 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>GENI, the Global Environment for Networking Innovation, is a distributed virtual laboratory for research in networking and distributed systems, with applications in domain science. The main components of GENI include OpenFlow-enabled software defined networking (SDN) resources deployed on over 40 university campuses across the U.S. These resources include both switches and GENI Racks (SDN capable compute clusters with OpenFlow switches for internal and external communications). GENI Racks are currently installed on dozens of university campuses and within R&E network backbones. Also available is a diverse group of programmable computing and wireless networking resources. Researchers access this collection of resources via the key GENI techniques of deep programmability and slicing.

| 2226 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Content Delivery over the Internet continues to be a challenge as there is no centralized control system [1]. Software Defined Networking has paved the way to provide this control of network traffic. OpenFlow is now being standardized as part of the Open Networking Foundation, and Software Defined Exchange provides a framework to use OpenFlow for multidomain routing. Prototype deployments of Software Defined Exchanges have recently come into existence as a platform for Future Internet architecture to eliminate the need for core routing technology used in today's Internet. In this paper, we look at how application delivery, in particular, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) and Nowcasting take advantage of Software Defined Exchange. We compare unsophisticated controllers to more sophisticated ones which we call a ” load balancer” and find that implementing a good reactive controller for inter-domain routing can result in better network utilization and better application performance. |

| 2239 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traffic from mobile wireless networks has been growing at a fast pace in recent years and is expected to surpass wired traffic very soon. Service providers face significant challenges at such scales including providing seamless mobility, efficient data delivery, security, and provisioning capacity at the wireless edge. In the Mobility First project, we have been exploring clean slate enhancements to the network protocols that can inherently provide support for at-scale mobility and trustworthiness in the Internet. An extensible data plane using pluggable compute-layer services is a key component of this architecture. We believe these extensions can be used to implement in-network services to enhance mobile end-user experience by either off-loading work and/or traffic from mobile devices, or by enabling en-route service-adaptation through context-awareness (e.g., Knowing contemporary access bandwidth). In this work we present details of the architectural support for in-network services within Mobility First, and propose protocol and service-API extensions to flexibly address these pluggable services from end-points. As a demonstrative example, we implement an in network service that does rate adaptation when delivering video streams to mobile devices that experience variable connection quality. We present details of our deployment and evaluation of the non-IP protocols along with compute-layer extensions on the GENI test bed, where we used a set of programmable nodes across 7 distributed sites to configure a Mobility First network with hosts, routers, and in-network compute services. |

| 2252 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Test beds such as GENI provide an ideal environment for experimenting with future internet architectures such as Choice Net. Unlike the narrow waist of the current Internet (IP), Choice Net encourages alternatives and competition at the network layer via an economic plane that allows users to choose and purchase precisely the services they need. In this paper we describe our experiences implementing the Choice Net architecture on GENI. Some features of GENI, such as the ability to program the network layer, to leverage existing protocols and software, to run real applications generating realistic traffic, and the ability to perform long-running experiments made GENI an ideal platform for Choice Net experimentation. However, we found that GENI currently lacks the tools needed to make it easy to use these features. To address this issue, we designed and implemented a GENI Experimenter Tool specifically designed and tailored to perform tasks commonly needed by experimenters such as dynamically configuring nodes, loading and compiling node-specific code, executing Click modules, running commands on sets of nodes, accessing the local file system on nodes, and dynamically logging into nodes. |

| 2265 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>When playing online games, the user experience is often dictated by the performance of the network. To deliver the best possible gaming experience, game developers often find themselves developing work-arounds that try to mask the lack of control they have over of the existing TCP/IP Internet. ChoiceNet, an emerging future Internet architecture, attempts to give applications enhanced control (choice) over the service they receive from the network. In particular, ChoiceNet supports an economic plane in which applications can purchase services from any provider. Because providers are compensated, they are motivated to offer a variety of innovative, excellent services, enabling applications to select the service best suited for its needs. Instead of coding work-arounds, game developers can obtain precisely the network service that is needed to optimize the game experience. In this paper, we describe the emerging ChoiceNet archi- tecture and show how computer games can benefit from the alternatives enabled by ChoiceNet. To demonstrate the benefits of the ChoiceNet architecture, we implemented a first person shooter game that uses ChoiceNet to ” purchase” and then send data over the purchased path resulting in substantially lower latency than the default path. We describe the ChoiceNet services used to implement the game, and we present performance results that show a significant reduction in latency. We also show how ChoiceNet can be used to purchase reliable (non-lossy) communication paths that improve the user's experience. |

It can enable students to architect scalable infrastructures and develop web-service based applications utilizing distributed systems. In this paper, we describe our efforts, experiences and findings in the development of laboratory exercises that utilize GENI infrastructure in a cloud computing course offered at University of Missouri in Fall 2013. Three sets of laboratory exercises were developed and administered for 30 undergraduate/graduate students to help them gain skills in computer and network virtualization, and also to prepare them for distributed system programming projects. We found that the GENI infrastructure provides unique capabilities for student training, and combining it with lab exercises that use public clouds such as Amazon Web Services can provide an overall rich set of hands-on learning opportunities. |

| 2291 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>One of the significant challenges for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) hosting ” virtual desktop cloud” (VDC) infrastructures is to deliver a satisfactory quality of experience (QoE) to the user. In order to maximize the user QoE without expensive resource overprovisioning, there is a need to design and verify resource allocation schemes for a comprehensive set of VDC configurations. In this paper, we present ” VDC-Analyst”, a novel tool that can capture critical quality metrics such as Net Utility and Service Response Time, which can be used to quantify VDC platform readiness. This tool allows CSPs, researchers and educators to design and verify various resource allocation schemes using both simulation and emulation in two modes: ” Run Simulation” and ” Run Experiment”, respectively. The Run Simulation mode allows users to test and visualize resource provisioning and placement schemes on a simulation framework. Run Experiment mode allows testing on a real software-defined network testbed using emulated virtual desktop application traffic to create a realistic environment. Results from using our tool demonstrate that a significant increase in perceived user QoE can be achieved by using a combination of the following techniques incorporated in the tool: (i) optimizing Net Utility through a ” Cost-Aware Utility-Maximal Resource Allocation Algorithm”, (ii) estimating values for Service Response Time using a ” Multi-stage Queuing Model”, and (iii) appropriate load balancing through software-defined networking adaptations in the VDC testbed. |

| 2304 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper describes an Open Flow-based prototype of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall. The prototype of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall includes an Open Flow-enabled switch and a firewall controller. The security rules are specified in the flow table in both the Open Flow-enabled switch and the firewall controller. The firewall controller is in charge of making control decisions on regulating the unidentified traffic flows. A communication channel is needed between a firewall controller and an Open Flow enabled switch. Through this channel, a switch sends to the controller with the information of unidentified flows, and the controller sends to the switch with the control decisions. Constraining this communication overhead is important to the applicability of the prototype because a high communication overhead could disturb the performance evaluation on the operation of a SDN-oriented stateful hardware firewall. |

In addition, the paper outlines the research directions in network science and engineering that such a switch may enable together with a new perspective on education in network programming. An SDP switch can be used to perform some specialized processing on flows with special hardware accelerators in addition to hosting any application (running on a Linux OS) that a user may insert on the path of a flow. The SDP switch is composed of a Dell switch (PowerConnect 7024) with an internal physical connection to a sub-unit, Network Processor Unit (NPU), by Cavium Networks. Hosting an OpenvSwitch on the NPU with open hosting of Linux applications enables software-defined networking experiments. The integration challenges/process associated with this unit is presented as a future reference to other such foreign box integrations. |

| 2330 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we describe our experience in implementing a non-IP routing protocol - Virtual Id Routing (VIRO) - using the OVS-SDN platform in GENI. As a novel, p̈lug-&amp;-play,̈ routing paradigm for future dynamic networks, VIRO decouples routing/forwarding from addressing by introducing a topology-aware, structured virtual id layer to encode the locations of switches and devices in the physical topology for scalable and resilient routing. Despite its general m̈atch-action ̈forwarding function, the existing OVS-SDN platform is closely tied to the conventional Ethernet/IP/TCP header formats, and cannot be directly used to implement the new VIRO routing/forwarding paradigm. As a result, we repurpose the Ethernet MAC address to represent VIRO virtual id, modify and extend the OVS (both within the user space and the kernel space) to implement the VIRO forwarding functions. We also utilize a set of local POX controllers (one per VIRO switch) to emulate the VIRO distributed control plane and one global POX controller to realize the VIRO (centralized) management plane. We evaluate our prototype implementation through the Mininet emulation and GENI deployment test and discuss some lessons learned using the test-bed. |

| 2343 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) is a virtual laboratory which provides the infrastructure and resources for setting up network experiments. At present, GENI experimenters need to draw the topology in detail with a tool such as Flack, describing every node and every link in the experiment. This is not a problem for small-scale experiments. However, if an experiment needs a large-scale network topology, it is difficult for experimenters to accomplish the task. To deal with the problem, this paper develops a web application that can create large-scale network topologies in the GENI environment automatically. It makes use of existing network topology generators, such as GT-ITMand INET, and adapts them to be used in the GENI environment. The system can interface with GENI seamlessly. With the tool, the task of setting up large-scale experiments by GENI experimenters is made as easy as simply specifying high-level parameters of the topology. |

| 2356 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) provides a virtual laboratory for exploring future internets at scale. It consists of many geographically distributed aggregates for providing computing and networking resources for setting up network experiments. A key design question for GENI experimenters is where they should reserve the resources, and in particular whether they should reserve the resources from a single aggregate or from multiple aggregates. This not only depends on the nature of the experiment, but needs a better understanding of underlying GENI networks as well. This paper studies the performance of GENI networks, with a focus on the tradeoff between single aggregate and multiple aggregates in the design of GENI experiments from the performance perspective. The analysis of data collected will shed light on the decision process for designing GENI experiments. |

| 2369 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Today, commercial load balancers are often in use, including in the production network at Arizona State University (ASU). One of the main issues such load balancers face is that they use a static scheme for load distribution. However, at particular times of the academic year, such as during course registration, the network exhibits significant variations in both temporal and spatial traffic characteristics. At these times, students experience much greater latency and become frustrated with the network service. To address this problem, our aim is to develop an SDN-based approach to load balancing to better cope with the traffic variation. |

| 2382 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation with new network architectures and protocols is one of the primary motivations for building future Internet testbeds such as the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed. A key part of experimentation is the ability to observe, measure, evaluate, and compare these new architectures and protocols. Observing an experiment's network performance requires setting up the measurement infrastructure needed to monitor and record the behavior of the network. It also requires a full set of tools and user interfaces that enable access to the measurement data both while the experiment is running and later during post-analysis. To simplify the task of measuring experiments in future Internet testbeds like GENI, we developed an instrumentation and measurement system called INSTOOLS. It automates the process of setting up the measurement infrastructure, tailoring the measurement infrastructure and the data capture to the experimental network's topology and configuration. In addition, INSTOOLS provides a suite of tools via its ” portal” service that make it easy for users to observe, measure, format, and archive data from their experiments. This paper describes the INSTOOLS system and the set of interfaces/tools it offers to users. INSTOOLS has been in use for several years, and we provide performance results that illustrate its scalability. We also present our second-generation portal, the GENI One Stop Portal, that offers a comprehensive interface to a wide range of tools. |

| 2395 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>BGP severely constrains how networks can deliver traffic over the Internet. Today's networks can only forward traffic based on the destination IP prefix, by selecting among routes offered by their immediate neighbors. We believe Software Defined Networking (SDN) could revolutionize wide-area traffic delivery, by offering direct control over packet-processing rules that match on multiple header fields and perform a variety of actions. Internet exchange points (IXPs) are a compelling place to start, given their central role in interconnecting many networks and their growing importance in bringing popular content closer to end users. To realize a Software Defined IXP (an S̈DX)̈, we must create compelling applications, such as äpplication-specific peering-̈--where two networks peer only for (say) streaming video traffic. We also need new programming abstractions that allow participating networks to create and run these applications and a runtime that both behaves correctly when interacting with BGP and ensures that applications do not interfere with each other. Finally, we must ensure that the system scales, both in rule-table size and computational overhead. In this paper, we tackle these challenges and demonstrate the flexibility and scalability of our solutions through controlled and in-the-wild experiments. Our experiments demonstrate that our SDX implementation can implement representative policies for hundreds of participants who advertise full routing tables while achieving sub-second convergence in response to configuration changes and routing updates. |

| 2408 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Traditionally data management software running on top of the Internet has very limited primitives to interact with the networking layer. This limitation has become a major road-block to develop next generation data management applications requiring high-bandwidth and dynamic network configuration. In this work, we present a policy-driven software framework that acts as an adaptation layer between the data management software and SDN networks. This framework allows a tight coupling between the data grid and the network and therefore makes complex workflow-like cross-layer computation possible. We have prototyped this adaptation layer integrated with iRODS, a popular policy-driven data grid software and Floodlight, a popular OpenFlow controller, and demonstrate how network policies become part of the overall data grid policies to improve the application performance. |

| 2421 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network performance in terms of throughput, latency, packet loss or jitter significantly influences user's quality of experience of cloud applications. Network services impact on cloud applications performance and this impact is even more significant when the cloud infrastructure spreads over different administrative domains, such as in a federated cloud or hybrid-cloud scenarios. Given this strong coupling between cloud application performance and network performance there is great value to be gained by supporting advanced controlled networking functionalities between distributed cloud infrastructures. These functionalities would be useful to the Future Internet (FI) experimentation community as well as future production clouds. This paper describes an architecture and a set of procedures to interconnect a multi-cloud environment with advanced facilities for controlled networking. This integration allows the provisioning of customized network functions and services in support of experiments running in a multi-cloud test-bed. The possibility to control the network connectivity is a key feature to provide better performance for the experimenters' cloud applications. We focus on the details of federating three advanced networking facilities with the BonFIRE multi-cloud environment. These three networking facilities are: FEDERICA, which supports controlled routing; GÉANT's Bandwidth-on-Demand service and OFELIA that uses OpenFlow to provide Software Defined Network functionalities. The interconnections with FEDERICA and GÉANT are already active, while OFELIA is envisaged as future work for a third facility to interconnect. |

| 2434 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The classical Internet has confronted many drawbacks in terms of network security, scalability, and performance, although it has strongly influenced the development and evolution of diverse network technologies, applications, and services. Therefore, new innovative research on the Future Internet has been performed to resolve the inherent weaknesses of the traditional Internet, which, in turn, requires new at-scale network testbeds and research infrastructure for large-scale experiments. In this context, K-GENI has been developed as an international programmable Future Internet testbed in the GENI spiral-2 program, and it has been operational between the USA (GENI) and Korea (KREONET) since 2010. The K-GENI testbed and the related collaborative efforts will be introduced with two major topics in this paper: (1) the design and deployment of the K-GENI testbed and (2) the federated meta operations between the K-GENI and GENI testbeds. Regarding the second topic in particular, we will describe how meta operations are federated across K-GENI between GMOC (GENI Meta Operations Center) and DvNOC (Distributed virtual Network Operations Center on KREONET/K-GENI), which is the first trial of an international experiment on the federated network operations over GENI. |

| 2447 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined Networking (SDN) has emerged as a new paradigm of networking that enables network operators, owners, vendors, and even third parties to innovate and create new capabilities at a faster pace. The SDN paradigm shows potential for all domains of use, including data centers, cellular providers, service providers, enterprises, and homes. Over a three-year period, we deployed SDN technology at our campus and at several other campuses nation-wide with the help of partners. These deployments included the first-ever SDN prototype in a lab for a (small) global deployment. The four-phased deployments and demonstration of new networking capabilities enabled by SDN played an important role in maturing SDN and its ecosystem. We share our experiences and lessons learned that have to do with demonstration of SDN's potential; its influence on successive versions of OpenFlow specification; evolution of SDN architecture; performance of SDN and various components; and growing the ecosystem. |

| 2460 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are expected to provide assistance to various applications, such as accident notification and emergency announcement. Named Data Networking (NDN) has been recognized as a more suitable architecture than TCP/IP for application in VANETs due to its ability to handle high mobility and intermittent connectivity. The Vehicular NDN (V-NDN) has further made special architectural modifications for VANETs. However, V-NDN can be challenged in its extensive use of broadcast in dense network situations. For example, broadcasting of interest packets could lead to more collisions. In this study, we explore the broadcast performance of V-NDN using the ORBIT testbed. Our experimental results show that VNDN suffers an increased loss ratio in dense network scenarios because of Wifi broadcast collision, and it is important to find a suitable range of values to be distributed by the collision avoidance timer before transmission. |

| 2473 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Mobile devices are expected to become the Internet's predominant technology. Current protocols such as TCP/IP were not originally designed with mobility as a key consideration, and therefore underperform under challenging mobile and wireless conditions. MobilityFirst, a clean slate architecture proposal, embraces several key concepts centered around secure identifiers that inherently support mobility and trustworthiness as key requirements of the network architecture. This includes a hop-by-hop segmented data transport based on a globally unique identifier. This allows late and dynamic rebinding of end-point addresses to support mobility. While this provides critical gains in wireless segments, some overheads are incurred even in stable segments such as in the core. Bypassing routing-layer decisions in these cases, with lower layer cut-through forwarding, can improve said gains. In this work, we introduce a general bypass capability within the MobilityFirst architecture that provides better performance and enables both individual and aggregate flow-level traffic control. Furthermore, we present an OpenFlow-based proof-of-concept implementation of the bypass function using layer 2 VLAN tagging. We run experiments on the ORBIT and Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbeds to evaluate the performance and scalability of the solution. By implementing the bypass functionality, we are able to significantly reduce the number of messages processed by the controller as well as the number of flow rules that need to be pushed into the switches. |

| 2486 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>PrimoGENI provides a GENI aggregate interface through which experimenters can launch large-scale network experiments on GENI resources consisting of both simulated network and real instances of network applications directly running on either virtual or physical machines. Real network traffic generated by the network applications can be introduced into the simulated network in real time and be subjected to proper delays and losses according to the simulated network conditions. To leverage the previous PrimoGENI prototype activities, PrimoGENI Constellation is a newly launched project, which will focus specifically on facilitating distributed at-scale hybrid experiments for real-world high-impact applications. In this paper, we provide an overview of the major achievements of PrimoGENI, and more importantly, discuss the ongoing efforts in PrimoGENI Constellation aiming to achieve the full potential of the hybrid network experiment approach. The main thrusts of PrimoGENI Constellation include: 1) supporting at-scale network experiments potentially distributed on different types of GENI resources in accordance with the GENI experiment workflow, 2) focusing on target applications supporting prominent and high-impact future Internet research, and 3) building the user community through extensive education and research training, and online archives of experiment results and user experiences. |

| 2499 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The new software defined networking (SDN) paradigm advocates separating the data plane and the control plane, making network switches simple packet forwarding devices and leaving a logically-centralized software to control the behavior of the network. SDN introduces new possibilities for a centralized network management and configuration. The main benefit is having the programmability of the forwarding tables according to the needs of the applications. Therefore, efficient and effective management of network resources becomes even more crucial in providing effective control plane functionality to the applications. OpenFlow standardization efforts at the Open Networking Foundation resulted in an OpenFlow Configuration (OFConfig) specification to address the management of resources in networks with OpenFlow-enabled switches. We report the implementation of an intuitively easy to use interface for the OpenFlow-capable logical devices as managed resources in a SDN. |

| 2512 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-Defined-Networking (SDN) is quickly transforming the networking landscape. Programmable networking based on many types of virtualization techniques, including SDN, enable high levels of abstraction for network services, control and management functions, and underlying technology resources. These approaches enable network designers to create a much wider range of services and capability, including through Software Defined Networking Exchanges (SDXs) than can be provided with traditional networks and exchange facilities, enabling a) many more dynamic provisioning options, including in real time b) faster implementation of new and enhanced services c) enabling applications, edge processes and even individuals to directly control core resources; e) substantially improved options for creating customizable networks and e) enhanced operational efficiency and effectiveness. In addition, these capabilities are now being extended to other types of Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI), including clouds, compute grids, storage devices, instruments, and many other types of edge devices. |

| 2525 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networks (SDNs), primarily based on OpenFlow, are being deployed in single domain networks around the world. The popularity of SDNs has given rise to multiple considerations about designing, implementing, and operating Software-Defined Network Exchanges (SDXs), to enable SDNs to interconnect SDN islands and to extend SDNs across multiple domains. These goals can be accomplished only by developing new techniques that extend the single domain orientation of current SDN/OpenFlow approaches to include capabilities for multidomain control, including those for resource discovery, signaling, and dynamic provisioning. Several networking research communities have begun to investigate these concepts. Early architectural models of SDXs have been designed and implemented as prototypes. These SDXs are being used to conduct experiments and to demonstrate the potentials of SDXs. |

| 2536 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Large scale national and international experimental research environments are required to advance communication services and supporting network architecture, technology, and infrastructure. Theories and concepts are often explored using simulation and modeling techniques within labs or on small scale testbeds. However, while such testbeds are valuable resources for the research process, these facilities alone cannot provide an appropriate approximation of the real world conditions required to explore ideas at scale. Very large scale global, experimental network research capabilities are required to deeply investigate innovative concepts. For many years, network testbeds were created to address fairly specific, well defined, limited research goals, and they were implemented for fairly short periods. Recently, taking advantage of a number of macro information technology trends, such as virtualization and programmable resources, several network research communities have been developing innovative types of network research environments. Instead of designing traditional network testbeds, research communities are designing large scale, highly flexible distributed platforms that can be used to create many different types of testbeds. Also, rather than creating short term testbeds for limited research objectives, these new environments are being designed as long term persistent resources to support many types of experimental research. This paper describes the motivations for this trend, provides several examples of large scale distributed network research environments based on the Global Lambda Integrated Facility (GLIF) and the StarLight Exchange Facility, including the Global Environment for Network Innovation (GENI), and indicates emerging future trends for these types of environments. |

We specifically report our recent experience at the SC'13 conference with showcasing a dynamically adaptable cloud infrastructure driven by the demand of a data-driven scientific workflow. Our work used resources from ExoGENI - a Networked Infrastructure-as-a-Service (NIaaS) testbed funded through NSF's Global Environment for Network Innovation (GENI) project. We used on-ramps to compute and data resources in the RENCI SC'13 booth to a large dynamically provisioned 'slice' spanning multiple ExoGENI cloud sites that were interconnected using dynamically provisioned connections from Internet2, NLR and ESnet. The slice was used to execute a scientific workflow driven from a computer in the RENCI SC'13 booth connected to the slice via SCinet. A closed-loop control mechanism leveraging a monitoring infrastructure based on persistent queries adapted the slice to the demands of the workflow as it executed. |

| 2562 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The IEEE 802.16 standard (WiMAX) is an important next-generation networking technology which promises highspeed network access for both mobile and fixed users. In this paper we present a method to estimate link quality for devices connected to Temple University's WiMAX network as they traverse both the main campus and the city of Philadelphia via foot and motor vehicle. This is accomplished by first measuring receive signal strength indicator (RSSI), carrier to interference plus noise ratio (CINR), and bandwidth. After capturing these values, we then analyze the data to provide an estimation of the actual system rate. We then present an approach to predict future states of link quality both while stationary at Temple and when traversing Philadelphia via bus. |

| 2575 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Host virtualization allows data centers to live migrate an entire virtual Machine (VM) to support data center maintenance, disaster avoidance and workload balancing. Live VM Migration can consume nearly the entire bandwidth for memory intensive applications which impacts the performance of competing flows in the network. A network-aware VM Migration operation ensures a fair share allocation of network resources, leading to a seamless Virtual Machine mobility while minimizing degradation of network performance. Recently, VMPatrol was proposed as a network aware VM Migration model which uses a single physical machine and QoS policies to simulate and implement a cost of migration model. However, the performance evaluation of VMPatrol was conducted in an emulated environment. In this paper, we empirically evaluate the performance of VMPatrol in an experimental GENI testbed characterized by wide-area network dynamics and realistic traffic scenarios. We deploy OpenFlow end to end QoS policies to reserve minimum bandwidths required for successful VM Migration. Preliminary results demonstrate that enforcing QoS policies in terms of bandwidth reservation relieves the network of possible overloads during migration. The results indicate that time taken to complete VM Migration depends on VM's memory size, VM page dirty rate and the available bandwidth. The results also indicate that length of stop copy phase and minimum required progress amount are critical parameters in estimating the VM migration cost. |

| 2601 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Non-IP protocols always presented a challenge for network researchers to deploy and test at large scale. GENI infrastructure presents a testbed to deploy large scale network experiments, however, non-IP protocols still raises a challenge to deploy since IP is the narrow waist of the Internet. SDN provides an opportunity implement non-IP protocols, however, the OpenFlow standard is still tied to Ethernet/IP/TCP protocol stack. In the paper, we utilize SDN to provide a framework to deploy and test a non-IP protocol, Virtual Id Routing (VIRO), in GENI using an extended Open vSwitch platform. |

| 2614 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined networking and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) have simplified the coordination efforts for ” service chaining.” Consequently, network services such as firewall, load balancing, etc. may be service chained in the forwarding (data) plane for specific applications and/or traffic. A specific case is for the firewall rules that depend on deep packet inspection for application identification. If a particular application is identified and is ” safe,” would it be worthwhile to program the data plane to bypass the FW for the duration of the application session? For such a traffic-steering case, we report measurement challenges on various setups and the related cost analysis based on the network delay. Measurements of the network and processing delay have been performed with virtualized resources, on GENI testbed, and with isolated hardware units. Experiences are also reported on how a commercial firewall virtual appliance has been deployed on the GENI testbed for experimentation. The results illustrate the measurement uncertainties and challenges for DPI-based traffic steering in virtualized environments. In addition, we show that such a service chaining may increase throughput and relieve DPI-based processing overhead on firewall units. |

| 2640 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Motivated by limitations in today's host-centric IP network, recent studies have proposed clean-slate network architectures centered around alternate first-class principals, such as content, services, or users. However, muchlike the host-centric IP design, elevating one principal type above others hinders communication between other principals and inhibits the network's capability to evolve. This paper presents the eXpressive Internet Architecture (XIA), an architecture with native support for multiple principals and the ability to evolve its functionality to accommodate new, as yet unforeseen, principals over time. We present the results of our ongoing research motivated by and building on the XIA architecture, ranging from topics at the physical level (``how fast can XIA go'') up through to the user level. |

| 2653 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Clean slate future Internet initiatives have been ongoing for a few years. An important consideration in the eventual deployment of solutions for such Internet architectures is the testing and validation of the design and its scalability in realistic network environments. Large scale emulation and experimentation testbeds sponsored and funded by major research organizations worldwide provide a suitable platform for the purpose. In this article, we present the implementation details of a new network and routing protocol that entirely replaces IP and its routing protocols from the protocol stack to provide efficient routing and forwarding of packets in a clean slate Floating Cloud Tiered (FCT) Internet architecture. The FCT architecture leverages the tier structure existing among ISPs, and has a new addressing and routing schema based on tiers. In this article, the implementation and evaluation details of the network protocol with these two features, namely the tiered addressing and tier-based routing using the Global Environmental for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed are presented. The performance of the protocol is also compared with Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) implemented over the GENI testbed for identical network topologies. |

| 2666 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A longstanding problem with the Internet is that it is vulnerable to outages, black holes, hijacking and denial of service. Although architectural solutions have been proposed to address many of these issues, they have had difficulty being adopted due to the need for widespread adoption before most users would see any benefit. This is especially relevant as the Internet is increasingly used for applications where correct and continuous operation is essential. In this paper, we study whether a simple, easy to implement model is sufficient for addressing the aforementioned Internet vulnerabilities. Our model, called ARROW (Advertised Reliable Routing Over Waypoints), is designed to allow users to configure reliable and secure end to end paths through participating providers. With ARROW, a highly reliable ISP offers tunneled transit through its network, along with packet transformation at the ingress, as a service to remote paying customers. Those customers can stitch together reliable end to end paths through a combination of participating and non-participating ISPs in order to improve the fault-tolerance, robustness, and security of mission critical transmissions. Unlike efforts to redesign the Internet from scratch, we show that ARROW can address a set of well-known Internet vulnerabilities, for most users, with the adoption of only a single transit ISP. To demonstrate ARROW, we have added it to a small-scale wide-area ISP we control. We evaluate its performance and failure recovery properties in both simulation and live settings. |

| 2679 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Recently, many schemes have been proposed for detecting and healing coverage holes to achieve full coverage in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, none of these schemes aim to find the shortest node movement paths to heal the coverage holes, which could significantly reduce energy usage for node movement. Also, current hole healing schemes require accurate knowledge of sensor locations; obtaining this knowledge consumes high energy. In this paper, we propose a Delaunay-based coordinate-free mechanism (DECM) for full coverage. Based on rigorous mathematical analysis, DECM can detect coverage holes and find the locally shortest paths for healing holes in a distributed manner without requiring accurate node location information. Also, DECM incorporates a cooperative movement mechanism that can prevent generating new holes during node movements in healing holes. Simulation results and experimental results from the real-world GENI Orbit testbed show that DECM achieves superior performance in terms of the energy-efficiency, effectiveness of hole healing, energy consumption balance and lifetime compared to previous schemes. |

| 2692 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The ability to repeat the experiments from a research study and obtain similar results is a corner stone in experiment-based scientific discovery. This essential feature has been often ignored by the distributed computing and networking community. There are many reasons for that, such as the complexity of provisioning, configuring, and orchestrating the resources used by experiments, their multiple external dependencies, and the difficulty to seamlessly record these dependencies. This paper describes a methodology based on well-established principles to plan, prepare and execute experiments. We propose and describe a family of tools, the LabWiki workspace, to support an experimenter's workflow based on that methodology. This proposed workspace provides services and mechanisms for each step of an experiment-based study, while automatically capturing the necessary information to allow others to repeat, inspect, validate and modify prior experiments. Our LabWiki workspace builds on existing contributions, and de-facto protocol and model standards, which emerged from recent experimental facility initiatives. We use a real experiment as a thread to guide and illustrate the discussion throughout this paper. |

Twenty-eight testbeds are currently in various stages of operation. Most testbeds have gigabit to the end user capability including homes and small businesses. Both wired (fiber) and wireless cities are represented. The three salient advantages of these testbeds are their (1) applicability for big data (and big video) applications upstream and downstream, (2) ability to provide low-latency access to edge or local cloud (locavore) infrastructure for ultra-responsive and powerful applications, and (3) capacity for enough physical bandwidth to allow for virtualized channels carrying new services under new business models. |

| 2718 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Researchers and practitioners are flush with ideas for tomorrow's cloud architectures. Their proposals range from small extensions of today's popular cloud-software stacks to all-new architectures that address mobility, energy efficiency, security and privacy, spe- cific workloads, the Internet of Things, and on and on. Many of the ideas that drive modern clouds, such as virtualization, network slicing, and robust distributed storage arose from the research community. However, today's clouds have become unsuitable for moving this research agenda forward: they have specific, unmalleable implementations of the core tech- nologies ” baked in.” To support next-generation cloud research, the community needs infrastructure that is built to support research into a wide variety of cloud architectures. CloudLab is a new, large-scale, diverse, and distributed infrastructure designed to address this need. CloudLab is not itself a cloud. Rather, it is a substrate on which researchers can build their own clouds and experi- ment with them in an environment that provides a high degree of realism. |

| 2744 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Multi-tenant cloud infrastructures are increasingly used for high-performance and high-throughput domain science applications. In recent years, machine virtualization has come a long way toward supporting domain science applications. Various cloud platforms, such as Open Stack, Cloud Stack, and Amazon EC2 are attracting scientists to these platforms with the promise of customized environments with virtually infinite compute resources. At the same time, research efforts, such as NSF GENI are bringing together cloud computing with advanced network infrastructure provisioning. This paper presents work toward evaluating the use of GENI to support domain science applications. The evaluation involved two different domain science applications deployed on ExoGENI and Insta GENI. The first application is ADCIRC, a storm surge model that uses Message Passing Interface (MPI). The second is Motif network, a genomics application using the Pegasus workflow management system to manage a large data-intensive workflow. |

| 2757 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Internet routing suffers from persistent and transient failures, circuitous routes, oscillations, and prefix hijacks. A major impediment to progress is the lack of ways to conduct impactful interdomain research. Most research is based either on passive observation of existing routes, keeping researchers from assessing how the Internet will respond to route or policy changes; or simulations, which are restricted by limitations in our understanding of topology and policy. We propose a new class of interdomain research: researchers can instantiate an AS of their choice, including its intradomain topology and interdomain interconnectivity, and connect it with the l̈ive ̈Internet to exchange routes and traffic with real interdomain neighbors. Instead of being observers of the Internet ecosystem, researchers become members. Towards this end, we present the Peering testbed. In its nascent stage, the testbed has proven extremely useful, resulting in a series of studies that were nearly impossible for researchers to conduct in the past. In this paper, we present a vision of what the testbed can provide. We sketch how to extend the testbed to enable future innovation, taking advantage of the rise of IXPs to expand our testbed. |

| 2770 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The German Lab (G-Lab) project aims to investigate architectural concepts and technologies for a new inter-networking architecture as an integrated approach between theoretic and experimental studies. Thus G-Lab consists of two major fields of activities: research studies of future network components and the design and setup of experimental facilities. Both are controlled by the same community to ensure that the experimental facility meets the demands of the researchers. Researchers gain access to virtualized resources or may gain exclusive access to resources if necessary. We present the current setup of the experimental facility, describing the available hardware, management of the platform, the utilization of the PlanetLab software and the user management. Moreover, a new approach to setup and deploy virtual network topologies will be described. |

| 2783 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Campuses are increasingly adopting hybrid cloud architectures for supporting data-intensive science applications that require ön-demand ̈resources, which are not always available locally on-site. Policies at the campus edge for handling multiple such applications competing for remote resources can cause bottlenecks across applications. These bottlenecks can be proactively avoided with pertinent profiling, monitoring and control of application flows using the emerging paradigm of software-defined networking (SDN). In this thesis, we leverage SDN principles in the design and implementation of an Äpplication-driven Overlay Network-as-a-Service ̈(ADON) framework that can manage the hybrid cloud requirements of multiple applications in a scalable and extensible manner. ADON's main features include: programmable c̈ustom templates ̈and a v̈irtual tenant handler ̈algorithm. Our solution approach in ADON involves scheduling transit selection and traffic engineering at the campus-edge based on real-time policy control that ensures predictable application performance delivery for multi-tenant traffic profiles. We also present a market-driven (distributed) resource optimization scheme that can address the Internet-scale scalability problems of handling resource requests of multiple data-intensive applications within a desktop-as-a-service cloud environment. We show how our optimization scheme can increase the system performance and user experience levels using metrics such as 'Service Response Time' and 'Net-Utility'. Lastly,we discuss ADON effectiveness validation with an implementation on a wide-area overlay network testbed featuring temporal behavior of multi-tenant traffic burst arrivals. We conclude by presenting hybrid cloud implementation best practices that ease the orchestration of network programmability for campus network providers and data-intensive application users. |

| 2822 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Hybrid cloud architectures are particularly attractive to leverage city-level investments for building customized clouds, and for extending them to leverage public clouds. A successful design of the hybrid cloud architecture should facilitate the provisioning of scalable and secure services suited to a variety of communities such as residential homes and high-tech business incubators. In this paper, we present a novel Ïn-the-know ̈recommendation framework for provisioning of cloud resources in the form of 'on-demand contracts' to address the challenges in delivering the hybrid service variations for different community and individual needs. Our recommendation framework uses knowledge of the city's socio-economic goals/values as well as user preferences in terms of cost, performance and mobility. Using such knowledge, it recommends dynamic decisions by choosing from various provisioning alternatives in order to: (a) ensure optimal user Quality of Experience (QoE) in service delivery, and (b) effective utilization of hybrid cloud resources. We validate our recommendation framework using service composition experiments to satisfy an exemplar collaboration use case in an actual city-supported hybrid cloud test bed involving citizen consumers. |

| 2835 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The growth of the Internet in terms of number of devices, the number of networks associated to each device and the mobility of devices and users makes the operation and management of the Internet network infrastructure a very complex challenge. In order to address this challenge, innovative solutions and ideas must be tested and evaluated in real network environments and not only based on simulations or laboratory setups. OFELIA is an European FP7 project and its main objective is to address the aforementioned challenge by building and operating a multi-layer, multi-technology and geographically distributed Future Internet testbed facility, where the network itself is precisely controlled and programmed by the experimenter using the emerging OpenFlow technology. This paper reports on the work done during the first half of the project, the lessons learned as well as the key advantages of the OFELIA facility for developing and testing new networking ideas. An overview on the challenges that have been faced on the design and implementation of the testbed facility is described, including the OFELIA Control Framework testbed management software. In addition, early operational experience of the facility since it was opened to the general public, providing five different testbeds or islands, is described. |

| 2848 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) envisions a smart grid that aggressively explores advance communication network solutions to facilitate real-time monitoring and dynamic control of the bulk electric power system. At the distribution level, the smart grid integrates renewable generation and energy storage mechanisms to improve the reliability of the grid. Furthermore, dynamic pricing and demand management provide customers an avenue to interact with the power system to determine the electricity usage that best satisfies their lifestyle. At the transmission level, efficient communication and a highly automated architecture provide visibility in the power system and as a result, faults are mitigated faster than they can propagate. However, such higher levels of reliability and efficiency rest on the supporting communication infrastructure. To date, utility companies are moving towards Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) because it supports traffic engineering and virtual private networks (VPNs). Furthermore, it provides Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees and fail-over mechanisms in addition to meeting the requirement of non-routability as stipulated by NERC. However, these benefits come at a cost for the infrastructure that supports the full MPLS specification. With this realization and given a two week implementation and deployment window in GENI, we explore the modularity and flexibility provided by the low cost OpenFlow Software Defined Networking (SDN) solution. In particular, we use OpenFlow to provide (1) automatic fail-over mechanisms, (2) a load balancing, and (3) Quality of Service guarantees: all essential mechanisms for smart grid networks. |

| 2861 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Modern distributed applications often have to make a choice about how to maintain data within the system. Distributed storage systems are often self- contained in a single cluster or are a black box as data placement is unknown by an application. Using wide area distributed storage either means using multiple APIs or loss of control of data placement. This work introduces Sage, a distributed filesystem that aggregates multiple backends under a common API. It also gives applications the ability to decide where file data is stored in the aggregation. By leveraging Sage, users can create applications using multiple distributed backends with the same API, and still decide where to physically store any given file. Sage uses a layered design where API calls are translated into the appropriate set of backend calls then sent to the correct physical backend. This way Sage can hold many backends at once making them appear as the same filesystem. The performance overhead of using Sage is shown to be minimal over directly using the backend stores, and Sage is also shown to scale with respect to backends used. A case study shows file placement in action and how applications can take advantage of the feature. |

| 2874 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The switches are essential for forwarding the packets in a local area network. If a switch fails, then the packets are not able to reach their destination, in spite of their long journey from the source. The new trend in Software Defined Networking (SDN) has made the use of software switches such as the OpenvSwitch quite popular. These software switches are used in data centers to connect virtual machines on which application servers are deployed. Such switches have the advantages of software: ease of development and flexibility, with less optimal testing and reliability measures than hardware systems. The Software switches are required to be resilient to failure because the applications servers which are running from the VMs which are connected through them should always be connected with its clients. So fault-tolerance becomes an important aspect in the use of software switches. In this paper, we explore one mechanism for fault tolerance of LINC (Link Is Not Closed), an open source OpenFlow switch, which is written in Erlang programming language. Distributed system, concurrency, and fault-tolerance are built-in features of Erlang. We leverage these features of Erlang to realize a fault-tolerant distributed LINC switch system. |

| 2887 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>We are living in the era where each of us is connected with each other virtually across the globe. We are sharing the information electronically over the internet every second of our day. There are many networking devices involved in sending the information over the internet. They are routers, gateways, switches, PCs, laptops, handheld devices, etc. The switches are very crucial elements in delivering packets to the intended recipients. Now the networking field is moving towards Software Defined Networking and the network elements are being slowly replaced by the software applications run by OpenFlow protocols. For example the switching functionality in local area networks could be achieved with software switches like OpenvSwitch (OVS), LINC-Switch, etc. Now a days the organizations depend on the datacenters to run their services. The application servers are being run from virtual machines on the hosts to better utilize the computing resources and make the system more scalable. The application servers need to be continuously available to run the business for which they are deployed for. Software switches are used to connect virtual machines as an alternative to Top of Rack switches. If such software switch fails then the application servers will not be able to connect to its clients. This may severely impact the business serviced by the application servers, deployed on the virtual machines. For reliable data connectivity, the switching elements need to be continuously functional. There is a need for reliable and robust switches to cater the today's networking infrastructure. In this study, the software switch LINC-Switch is implemented as distributed application on multiple nodes to make it resilient to failure. The fault-tolerance is achieved by using the distribution properties of the programming language Erlang. By implementing the switch on three redundant nodes and starting the application as a distributed application, the switch will be serving its purpose very promptly by restarting it on other node in case it fails on the current node by using failover/takeover mechanisms of Erlang. The tolerance to failure of the LINC-Switch is verified with Ping based experiment on the GENI test bed and on the Xen-cluster in our Lab. |

| 2900 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Active end-to-end available bandwidth estimation is intrusive, expensive, inaccurate, and does not work well with bursty cross traffic or on high capacity links. Yet, it is important for designing high performant networked systems, improving network protocols, building distributed systems, and improving application performance. In this paper, we present minProbe which addresses unsolved issues that have plagued available bandwidth estimation. As a middlebox, minProbe measures and estimates available bandwidth with high-fidelity, minimal-cost, and in userspace; thus, enabling cheaper (virtually no overhead) and more accurate available bandwidth estimation. MinProbe performs accurately on high capacity networks up to 10 Gbps and with bursty cross traffic. We evaluated the performance and accuracy of minProbe over a wide-area network, the National Lambda Rail (NLR), and within our own network testbed. Results indicate that minProbe can estimate available bandwidth with error typically no more than 0.4 Gbps in a 10 Gbps network. |

| 2913 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Significant efforts have been devoted to creating large scale compute and network testbeds for studying future Internet challenges. Besides large geographic span, the common emphasis is programmability, allowing researchers to reserve or create, via software, flexible sets of compute and network resources over specified topologies to execute research prototypes of new protocols, processes, and applications. Also emphasized are virtualization, instrumentation, and software defined networking (SDN) capabilities of the infrastructure. SDN in particular stimulated significant interests in academia, industry, and public sectors to re-imagine the future computing and networking infrastructure landscape and roadmap while it becomes increasingly utilized in production environments. Amidst these interests, one can start to capture desirable characteristics to glimpse the potential architecture of the future Internet. In this paper, we discuss the significance of compute-network interaction across complex, highly customized federated architecture in the future Internet. Infrastructure federation has been happening across multiple dimensions. Federation expands the scope of infrastructure, geographically and administratively, for use by members of different organizations. For example, federation initiatives are underway among: 1) US Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), Europe Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE), and future Internet testbeds in Asia, South America, and Canada, 2) university production infrastructure, 3) US cities, 4) US public research institutes, and 5) commercial infrastructure. While requirements and objectives differ, they must all address a common set of issues. Such federation suggests the fundamental needs of applications to interact with compute and network resources across a generic, federated, future Internet environment. |

| 2926 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper introduces GENI Cinema (GC), a system that provides a scalable live video streaming service based on dynamic traffic steering with software defined networking (SDN) and demand driven instantiation of video relay servers in NSF GENI's distributed cloud environments. While the service can be used to relay a multitude of video content, its initial objective is to support live video streaming of educational content such as lectures and seminars among university campuses. Users on any campus would bootstrap video upload or download via a public web portal and, for scalability, have the video delivered seamlessly across the network over one or multiple paths selected and dynamically controlled by GC. The architecture aims to provide a framework for addressing several well-known limitations of video streaming in today's Internet, where little control is available for controlling forwarding paths of on demand live video streams. GC utilizes GENI's distributed cloud servers to host on-demand video servers/relays and its Open Flow SDN to achieve seamless video upload/download and optimization of forwarding paths in the network core. This paper presents the architecture and an early prototype of the basic GC framework, together with some initial performance measurement results. |

The Recursive Inter Network Architecture (RINA) is our solution to enable network programmability. ProtoRINA is a user-space prototype of RINA and provides users with a framework with common mechanisms so a user can program recursive-networking policies without implementing mechanisms from scratch. In this paper, we focus on how routing policies, which is an important aspect of network management, can be programmed using ProtoRINA, and demonstrate how ProtoRINA can be used to achieve better performance for a video streaming application by instantiating different routing policies over the GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovations) test bed, which provides a large-scale experimental facility for networking research. |

By separating mechanisms and policies, RINA supports the programmability of different control and management policies over different communication scopes while using the same mechanisms. GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovations) provides a large-scale virtual network testbed that supports experimentation and possible deployment of future network architectures. In this paper, using ProtoRINA over GENI resources, we demonstrate how RINA's support for the scoping of routing control and management, and instantiation of different routing policies, can be leveraged to yield faster convergence and lower routing overhead in the face of node or link failures. |

| 2965 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Internet is broken and there are several approaches to fix it. In order to validate the different attempts, they need to be evaluated within large-scale environments involving numerous heterogeneous resources. As a result, several testbeds have been established along with a number of competitive mechanisms to federate them. Since most of these protocols try to address similar issues, combining and unifying them is subject of current research. This leads to a complex environment for testbed owners and developers. Furthermore, it is foreseeable that even more federation approaches in different application domains will emerge in the future. Therefore, we propose an extensible architecture that allows to be federation protocol agnostic. The fundamental idea is to allow interoperability on the level of a semantic information model and to separate delivery mechanism specific implementations from a common core. The requirements for such an architecture have been extracted from latest European Future Internet research projects and its practicability is being evaluated by an initial implementation. |

| 2991 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper, we study the problem of provisioning large-scale virtual clusters over federated clouds connected by multi-domain, layer-2 wide area networks. We first present the virtual cluster request abstraction and the abstraction models for substrate resource pools. Based on these two abstraction models, we developed a novel layer-2 exchange mechanism and an implementation of it in a multi-domain networked cloud environment. The design of the mechanism takes into consideration the realistic constraints in current network and cloud systems. We show that efficient cluster splitting, cloud data center selection and resource allocation algorithms can be developed to provision large-scale virtual clusters across cloud sites. A prototype system has been deployed and integrated into the ExoGENI testbed for about a year, and is being heavily used by scientific and data analytic applications. |

| 3002 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Due to the economy of scale of Ethernet networks and available dynamic circuit capability from the major national research and educational networks, VLAN (Virtual LAN) based virtual networking solution has been successfully adopted in some advanced distributed cloud systems. However, there are two major constraints in this adaptation: (1) dynamic circuit service is far from pervasive; (2) there is only limited VLAN tags offered by regional network service providers. In this paper, after examining layer-2 networking in large-scale distributed cloud environments, we present a graph theoretical model to study the network capacity in terms of the number of inter-cloud connections that can co-exist. We further design the algorithms to achieve this capacity for both point-to-point and multi-point inter-cloud connections in both static and dynamic scenarios. We also study a general topology embedding problem based on this model. As tagging is a common mechanism for isolating communication channels in other network layers, the proposed models and algorithms can be extended to optical and IP networks. |

| 3015 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In the new cloud computing paradigm, outsourcing computation is a fundamental principle. Among its various aspects, the correctness of the computation result remains paramount. This motivates the birth of verifiable computation, which aims at efficiently checking the result for general-purpose computation. Although significant progress has been made in verifiable computation towards practice, the verifier's workload still remains too high. Only through batching or amortizing the very expensive investment over a large number of computation instances, can the verifiers cost be less than re-computing the computation task from the scratch. In the work of delegation of verification (PODC'13), Xu et al. proposes that the client can also outsource (again) the verification to a third party. However, whether this idea is feasible in large scale network is not clear. In this paper, we propose to adopt the Global Environment for Network Innovation (GENI) infrastructure, which is known as a mature virtual laboratory for exploring future Internet to investigate the feasibility of outsourcing computation/verification in large scale networks. |

| 3028 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Leveraging multiple wireless technologies and radio access networks, vehicles on the move have the potential to get robust connectivity and continuous service. To support the demands of as many vehicles as possible, an efficient and fast network selection scheme is critically important to achieve high performance and efficiency. So far, prior works have primarily focused on design of optimization algorithms and utility functions for either user or network performance. Most such studies do not address the complexities involved in the acquisition of needed information and the execution of algorithms, making them unsuitable for practical implementations in vehicles. This paper proposes a fast, cloud-based network selection scheme for vehicular networks. By leveraging a compute cloud's abundant computing and data storage resources, vehicles can leverage wider scope network information for decision making. Vehicles select best access networks through a coalition formation game approach. A one-iteration fast convergence algorithm is proposed to achieve the final state of coalition structure in the game. Through extensive simulation, the proposed network selection scheme was shown to balance system throughput and fairness with built-in utility division rule of the framework. The algorithm efficiency showed eight-fold enhancement over a conventional coalition formation algorithm. Such features validate the potential of implementation in practice. |

| 3041 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this dissertation we take a peer-to-peer approach to deal with two specific issues, fair trading and file distribution, arisen from data management for cloud computing. In mobile cloud computing environment cloud providers may collaborate with each other and essentially organize some dedicated resources as a peer to peer sharing system. One well-known problem in such peer to peer systems with exchange of resources is free riding. Providing incentives for peers to contribute to the system is an important issue in peer to peer systems. We design a reputation-based fair trading mechanism that favors peers with higher reputation. Based on the definition of the reputation used in the system, we derive a fair trading policy. We evaluate the performance of reputation-based trading mechanisms and highlight the scenarios in which they can make a difference. Distribution of data to the resources within a cloud or to different collaborating clouds efficiently is another issue in cloud computing. The delivery efficiency is de- pendent on the characteristics of the network links available among these network nodes and the mechanism that takes advantage of them. Our study is based on the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), a testbed for researchers to build a virtual laboratory at scale to explore future Internets. Our study consists of two parts. First, we characterize the links in the GENI network. Even though GENI has been used in many research and education projects, there is no systematic study about what we can expect from the GENI testbeds from a performance perspective. The goal is to characterize the links of the GENI networks and provide guidance for GENI experiments. Second, we propose a peer to peer approach to file distribution for cloud comput- ing. We develop a mechanism that uses multiple delivery trees as the distribution structure, which takes into consideration the measured performance information in the GENI network. Files are divided into chunks to improve parallelism among differ- ent delivery trees. With a strict scheduling mechanism for each chunk, we can reduce the overall time for getting the file to all relevant nodes. We evaluate the proposed mechanism and show that our mechanism can significantly reduce the overall delivery time. |

| 3054 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>After several spirals of development, GENI has evolved into a rich-featured environment with comprehensive support. Researchers have started to use it as a testing environment for their research projects, as evidenced by new GENI projects on shakedown experiments. However, it is not clear what we can expect from the GENI testbeds from a performance perspective. Some fundamental questions we can ask are: What are the bandwidth and latency of a link that connects two VMs from two different GENI aggregates? Do they change a lot over time? What kind of distribution do they follow? Are they aggregate dependent? The goal of this study is to characterize the links of the GENI networks and provide guidance to GENI experimenters. The information collected can be helpful for designing GENI experiments in selecting where resources should be reserved. |

| 3084 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Denial of Service (DoS) attacks disable network services for legitimate users. As a result of growing dependence on the Internet by both the general public and service providers, the availability of Internet services has become a concern. While DoS attacks cause inconvenience for users, and revenue loss for service providers; their effects on critical infrastructures like the smart grid and public utilities could be catastrophic. For example, an attack on a smart grid system can cause cascaded power failures and lead to a major blackout. Researchers have proposed approaches for detecting these attacks in the past decade. Anomaly based DoS detection is the most common. The detector uses network traffic statistics; such as the entropy of incoming packet header fields (e.g. source IP addresses or protocol type). It calculates the observed statistical feature and triggers an alarm if an extreme deviation occurs. Entropy features are common in recent DDoS detection publications. They are also one of the most effective features for detecting these attacks. However, intrusion detection systems (IDS) using entropy based detection approaches can be a victim of spoofing attacks. An attacker can sniff the network and calculate background traffic entropy before a (D)DoS attack starts. They can then spoof attack packets to keep the entropy value in the expected range during the attack. This paper explains the vulnerability of entropy based network monitoring systems. We present a proof of concept entropy spoofing attack and show that by exploiting this vulnerability, the attacker can avoid detection or degrade detection performance to an unacceptable level. |

| 3097 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interplanetary Internet or Interplanetary Networking is envisaged as a space network which interconnects spacecrafts, satellites, rovers and orbiters of different planets and comets for efficient exchange of scientific data such as telemetry and images. In this paper, we implement a layout of the Interplanetary Internet (IPN) with the Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) software module that uses Contact Graph Routing (CGR). The experiments are then implemented on the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI) testbed. Along with realistic contact plans (CP) of the nodes, this network implementation was used to run experiments testing the performance of Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) with and without cross links between Mars orbiters. The experiments showed that in an Earth-Mars communication network using two Mars orbiters, allowing cross links between the orbiters results in increasing the amount of data transferred by roughly 9.2%. Data sent from Mars Rover to the Earth stations also increases by 35.7% when a third satellite (Mars Express) was added to the network without cross links. Finally, when cross links are allowed across all satellites orbiting Mars and serving as relay nodes between the Earth stations and Mars rover, the communication was enhanced by almost 46%. We conclude that by adding cross links, the performance of the network is enhanced for a better transmission of data from Mars to the Earth, which is very pertinent for the scalability of the network. |

| 3110 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A modern virtualized data center is highly multifarious environment shared among hundreds of co-located tenants hosting heterogeneous applications. The tenants' virtual machines generate a subset of elephants or mice flows (different in terms of rate, size, duration, and burstiness) based on the type of application they are running. Virtual traffic generated from the tenant's virtual machines traverses the underlay physical fabric in aggregate because of different encapsulation techniques (VXLAN, NVGRE, and STT for example) employed in data center networks thus obfuscating the virtual traffic characteristics. Existing approaches to monitor and/or identify elephant flows either have limited or no visibility into virtual traffic or are associated with high monitoring overhead making it hard to precisely detect and properly engineer elephant flows on the underlay fabric. In this paper, we present VirtMonE, a lightweight detection mechanism aimed at precisely detecting egress elephant flows at Open vSwitch while providing visibility into virtual traffic with least measurement and monitoring overhead at the edge. We conduct simulations on a small GENI testbed to evaluate the performance of the proposed solution for a software-defined multi-tenant virtual network. Our proposed solution is demonstrated to precisely detect the elephant flows from different tenants at the edge, provide visibility into virtual traffic and mitigate the network overhead associated with detection, thus improving the overall performance of the data centre. |

| 3136 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The Information Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm promises deconstraining the current Internet architecture by allowing clients to directly address the desired content throughout the network. For the Internet this is a further evolutionary step from the idea of a narrow-waist core that only transports requests/replies to an intelligent architecture searching for and providing content. Multi-sourcing, which is one of the core ideas of ICN, constitutes a serious challenge for prevalent Internet applications such as video streaming. In this work we show how prominent adaptive video streaming protocols can benefit from the load balancing capabilities that are native to ICN. We examine the performance of content retrieval in ICN over Ethernet in a real-world testbed showing the impact of multi-sourcing and content size variation on the content transfer times. |

| 3149 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Cloud Computing is the new trend in sharing resources, sharing and managing data and performing computations on a shared resource via the Internet. However, with the constant increase in demand, these resources are insufficient. So users often use another network in conjunction with the current one. All these networks accomplish the goal of providing the user with a virtual or physical machine. However, to achieve the result, virtual machine users have to maintain multitude credentials and follow a different process for each network. In this thesis, we focus on SAGEFed, a product that enables a user to use the same credentials and commands to reserve the resources on two different federated clouds, i.e., SAVI and GENI. As a part of SAGEFed, the user can acquire or reserve resources on the clouds with the same API. The same service also manages the credentials, so they do not have to manage different credentials while acquiring resources. Furthermore, SAGEFed demonstrates that any cloud that has some form of client tool can be easily integrated. |

| 3175 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Researchers and educators in computer science and other domains are increasingly turning to distributed test beds that offer access to a variety of resources, including networking, computation, storage, sensing, and actuation. The provisioning of resources from their owners to interested experimenters requires establishing sufficient mutual trust between these parties. Building such trust directly between researchers and resource owners will not scale as the number of experimenters and resource owners grows. The NSF GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovation) project has focused on establishing scalable mechanisms for maintaining such trust based on common approaches for authentication, authorization and accountability. Such trust reflects the actual trust relationships and agreements among humans or real-world organizations. We describe here GENI's approaches for federated trust based on mutually trusted authorities, and implemented via cryptographically signed credentials and shared policies. |

| 3188 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>With gigabit networking becoming economically feasible and widely installed at homes, there are new opportunities to revisit in-home, personalized telehealth services. In this paper, we describe a novel telehealth eldercare service that we developed viz., ” PhysicalTherapy-as-a-Service” (PTaaS) that connects a remote physical therapist at a clinic to a senior at home. The service leverages a high-speed, low-latency network connection through an interactive interface built on top of Microsoft Kinect motion sensing capabilities. The interface that is built using user-centered design principles for wellness coaching exercises is essentially a 'Synchronous Big Data' application due to its: (i) high data-in-motion velocity (i.e., peak data rate is ≈400 Mbps), (ii) considerable variety (i.e., measurements include 3D sensing, network health, user opinion surveys and video clips of RGB, skeletal and depth data), and (iii) large volume (i.e., several GB of measurement data for a simple exercise activity). The successful PTaaS delivery through this interface is dependent on the veracity analytics needed for correlation of the real-time Big Data streams within a session, in order to assess exercise balance of the senior without any bias due to network quality effects. Our experiments with PTaaS in an actual testbed involving senior homes in Kansas City with Google Fiber connections and our university clinic demonstrate the network configuration and time synchronization related challenges in order to perform online analytics. Our findings provide insights on how to: (a) enable suitable resource calibration and perform network troubleshooting for high user experience for both the therapist and the senior, and (b) realize a Big Data architecture for PTaaS and other similar personalized healthcare services to be remotely delivered at a large-scale in a reliable, secure and cost-effective manner. |

| 3201 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Deployment of innovative new networking services requires support by network providers. Since economic motivation plays an important role for network providers, it is critical that a network architecture intrinsically considers economic relationships. We present the design of a protocol that associates access to network services with economic contracts. We show how this protocol can be realized in fundamentally different ways, using out-of-band signaling and in-band signaling, based on two different prototype implementations. We present results that show the effectiveness of the proposed protocol and thus demonstrate a first step toward realizing an economy plane for the Internet. |

| 3214 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networking (SDN) has the potential to enable novel security applications that support flexible, on-demand deployment of system elements. It can offer targeted forensic evidence collection and investigation of computer network attacks. Such unique capabilities are instrumental to network intrusion detection that is challenged by large volumes of data and complex network topologies. This paper presents an innovative approach that coordinates distributed network traffic Monitors and attack Correlators supported by Open Virtual Switches (OVS). The Monitors conduct anomaly detection and the Correlators perform deep packet inspection for attack signature recognition. These elements take advantage of complementary views and information availability on both the data and control planes. Moreover, they collaboratively look for network flooding attack signature constituents that possess different characteristics in the level of information abstraction. Therefore, this approach is able to not only quickly raise an alert against potential threats, but also follow it up with careful verification to reduce false alarms. We experiment with this SDN-supported collaborative approach to detect TCP SYN flood attacks on the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), a realistic virtual testbed. The response times and detection accuracy, in the context of a small to medium corporate network, have demonstrated its effectiveness and scalability. |

| 3225 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined networking (SDN) and Open Flow have been driving new security applications and services. However, even if some of these studies provide interesting visions of what can be achieved, they stop short of presenting realistic application scenarios and experimental results. In this paper, we discuss a novel attack detection approach that coordinates monitors distributed over a network and controllers centralized on an SDN Open Virtual Switch (OVS), selectively inspecting network packets on demand. With different scale of network views and information availability, these two elements collaboratively detect signature constituents of an attack. Therefore, this approach is able to quickly issue an alert against potential threats followed by careful verification for high accuracy, while balancing the workload on the OVS. We have applied this method for detection and mitigation of TCP SYN flood attacks on Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI). This realistic experimentation has provided us with insightful findings helpful toward a systematic methodology of SDN-supported attack detection and containment. |

| 3251 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>There are many compelling reasons to use a shared, public testbed such as GENI, Emulab, or PlanetLab to conduct experiments in computer science and networking. These testbeds support creating experiments with a large and diverse set of resources. Moreover these testbeds are constructed to inherently support the repeatability of experiments as required for scientifically sound research. Finally, the artifacts needed for a researcher to repeat their own experiment can be shared so that others can readily repeat the experiment in the same environment. However using a shared, public testbed is different from conducting experiments on resources either owned by the experimenter or someone the experimenter knows. Experiments on shared, public testbeds are more likely to use large topologies, use scarce resources, and need to be tolerant to outages and maintenances in the testbed. In addition, experimenters may not have access to low-level debugging information. This paper describes a methodology for new experimenters to write and deploy repeatable and sharable experiments which deal with these challenges by: having a clear plan; automating the execution and analysis of an experiment by following best practices from software engineering and system administration; and building scalable experiments. In addition, the paper describes a case study run on the GENI testbed which illustrates the methodology described. |

| 3264 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Interplanetary Internet or Interplanetary Networking (IPN) is envisaged as a space network which interconnects spacecrafts, satellites, rovers and orbiters of different planets and comets for efficient exchange of scientific data such as telemetry and images. IPNs are classified among challenged networks because of the unpredictable changes in the network and the large varying delays in communication. These net- works are hard to model using static graphs and do not behave optimally when operated using the static networks' standards and techniques. Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), in its different implementations, is one of the suggested solutions to overcome these networks' challenges. DTN has different routing techniques, among which Contact Graph Routing (CGR) is the more widely used in IPNs. In this thesis, we identify the shortcoming of CGR that results from overlooking the future contacts, and we propose the Earliest Arrival Optimal Delivery Ratio (EAODR) Routing that examines all the paths both with the desired earliest departure time and in the future in order to choose the earliest arrival path from a given node. EAODR finds the route that delivers the exchanged message (a. k. a. bundle) at most at the same time as CGR's route. In order to do that, we propose a Modified Temporal Graph (MTG) model that provides a near-real-time representation of the deterministic dynamic networks. We base EAODR routing algorithm on the MTG model. Our results show that we can reduce the delay by 12.9% compared to CGR when we apply our algorithm to over 50 combinations of bundle sizes and transmission times. |

| 3277 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Designing a new network and upgrading existing network infrastructure are complex and arduous tasks. These projects are further complicated in campus, regional, and international research networks given the large bandwidth and unique segmentation requirements coupled with the unknown implications of testing new network protocols. The software-defined networking (SDN) revolution promises to alleviate these challenges by separating the network control plane from the data plane [208]. This allows for a more flexible and programmable network. While SDN has delivered large dividends to early adopters, it is still a monumental undertaking to re-architect an existing network to use new technology. To ease the transition burden, many research networks have chosen either a hybrid SDN solution or a clean-slate approach. Unfortunately, neither of these approaches can avoid the limitations of existing SDN implementations. For example, software-defined networking can introduce an increase in packet delay in a previously low-latency network. Therefore, it is vital for administrators to have an indepth understanding of these new challenges during the SDN transition. OpenFlow (OF) [209], the protocol many SDN controllers use to communicate with network devices, also has several drawbacks that network architects need to discern before designing the network. Therefore, care must be taken when designing and implementing a software-defined network. This thesis takes an in-depth look at Stanford University, GENI, and OFELIA as case study examples of campus, national, and international research networks that utilize SDN concepts. Additionally, we detail the planning of the future MCNC SDN that will connect several North Carolina research institutions using a high-speed software-defined network. After dissecting the design and implementation of these software-defined research networks, we present common challenges and lessons learned. Our analysis uncovered some common issues in existing software-defined networks. For example, there are problems with the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), switch/OpenFlow compatibility, hybrid OpenFlow/legacy switch implementations, and the FlowVisor network slicing tool. These potential issues are discussed in detail. Trends include implementation of OpenFlow version 1.3, use of commercial-quality controllers, and a transition to inexpensive network hardware through the use of software switches and NetFPGAs. We hope the findings presented in this thesis will allow network architects to avoid some of the difficulties that arise in design, implementation, and policy decisions when campus and other research networks are transitioning to a software-defined approach. |

| 3290 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>A testbed capable of representing detailed operations of complex applications under diverse network conditions is invaluable for understanding the design and performance of new protocols and applications before their real deployment. We introduce a novel method that combines high-performance large-scale network simulation and high-fidelity network emulation, and thus enables real instances of network applications and protocols to run in real operating environments and be tested under simulated network settings. Using our approach, network simulation and emulation can form a symbiotic relationship, through which they are synchronized for an accurate representation of the network-scale traffic behavior. We introduce a model downscaling method along with an efficient queuing model and a traffic reproduction technique, which can significantly reduce the synchronization overhead and improve accuracy. We validate our approach with extensive experiments via simulation and with a real-system implementation. We also present a case study using our approach to evaluate a multipath data transport protocol. |

| 3303 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>While more and more services become virtualised and always accessible in our society, laboratories supporting Computer Science (CS) lectures have mainly remained offline and class-based. This apparent abnormality is due to several limiting factors, discussed in the literature, such as the high cost of deploying and maintaining computer network testbeds and the lack of standardisation for the presentation of eLearning platforms. In this paper, we present the FORGE toolkit, which leverages experimentation facilities currently deployed in international initiatives for the development of e-learning materials. Thus, we solve the institutional challenge mentioned in the ACM/IEEE 2013 CS curricula concerning the access and maintenance of specialised and heterogeneous hardware thanks to a seamless integration with the networking testbed community. Moreover, this project builds an ecosystem where teaching and educational materials, tools and experiments are available under open scheme and policies. We demonstrate how it already meets most of the requirements from the Network and Communication component of CS 2013 and some of the labs of the Cisco academy. Finally, we present experience reports illustrating the potential benefits of this framework based on first deployments in four post-graduate courses in prestigious institutions around the world. |

| 3316 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>HTTP based online video streaming services have been consistently dominating the online traffic for the past few years. Measuring and improving the performance of these services is an important challenge. Traditional Quality-of-Service (QoS) metrics such as packet loss, jitter and delay which were used for networked services are not easily understood by the users. Instead, Quality-of-Experience (QoE) metrics which capture the overall satisfaction are more suitable for measuring the quality as perceived by the users. However, these QoE metrics have not yet been standardized and their measurement and improvement poses unique challenges. In this work we first present a comprehensive survey of the different set of QoE metrics and the measurement methodologies suitable for HTTP based online video streaming services. We then present our active QoE measurement tool Pytomo that measures the QoE of YouTube videos. A case study on the measurement of QoE of YouTube videos when accessed by residential users from three different Internet Service Providers (ISP) in a metropolitan area is discussed. This is the first work that has collected QoE data from actual residential users using active measurements for YouTube videos. Based on these measurements we were able to study and compare the QoE of YouTube videos across multiple ISPs. We also were able to correlate the QoE observed with the server clusters used for the different users. Based on this correlation we were able to identify the server clusters that were experiencing diminished QoE. DynamicAdaptive Streaming overHTTP (DASH) is an HTTP based video streaming that enables the video players to adapt the video quality based on the network conditions. We next present a rate adaptation algorithm that improves the QoE of DASH video streaming services that selects the most optimum video quality. With DASH the video server hosts multiple representation of the same video and each representation is divided into small segments of constant playback duration. The DASH player downloads the appropriate representation based on the network conditions, thus, adapting the video quality to match the conditions. Currently deployed Adaptive Bitrate (ABR) algorithms use throughput and buffer occupancy to predict segment fetch times. These algorithms assume that the segments are of equal size. However, due to the encoding schemes employed this assumption does not hold. In order to overcome these limitations, we propose a novel Segment Aware Rate Adaptation algorithm (SARA) that leverages the knowledge of the segment size variations to improve the prediction of segment fetch times. Using an emulated player in a geographically distributed virtual network setup, we compare the performance of SARA with existing ABR algorithms. We demonstrate that SARA helps to improve the QoE of the DASH video streaming with improved convergence time, better bitrate switching performance and better video quality. We also show that unlike the existing adaptation schemes, SARA provides a consistent QoE irrespective of the segment size distributions. |

| 3329 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Dynamic adaptive HTTP (DASH) based streaming is steadily becoming the most popular online video streaming technique. DASH streaming provides seamless playback by adapting the video quality to the network conditions during the video playback. A DASH server supports adaptive streaming by hosting multiple representations of the video and each representation is divided into small segments of equal playback duration. At the client end, the video player uses an adaptive bitrate selection (ABR) algorithm to decide the bitrate to be selected for each segment depending on the current network conditions. Currently, proposed ABR algorithms ignore the fact that the segment sizes significantly vary for a given video bitrate. Due to this, even though an ABR algorithm is able to measure the network bandwidth, it may fail to predict the time to download the next segment In this paper, we propose a segment-aware rate adaptation (SARA) algorithm that considers the segment size variation in addition to the estimated path bandwidth and the current buffer occupancy to accurately predict the time required to download the next segment We also developed an open source Python based emulated DASH video player, that was used to compare the performance of SARA and a basic ABR. Our results show that SARA provides a significant gain over the basic algorithm in the video quality delivered, without noticeably impacting the video switching rates. |

| 3342 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Our previous work enabled ” federation-less federation”, which means a federation of multiple network-virtualization platforms that do not support federation functions, and applied this method to a homogeneous federation of platforms called the ” VNode” infrastructures. In this study, this method was applied to a heterogeneous federation of the ProtoGENI and the ” VNode”. We intended to federate these platforms through a single management interface. However, the federation architecture of GENI, which is called the slice-based federation architecture (SFA), cannot be used for single-interface federation but we could not modify the ProtoGENI platform to enable it. Therefore, a method for applying federation-less-federation to ProtoGENI was developed. It enabled federation of these platforms by adding several nodes but without modifying preexisting platforms. This method was applied to federation of the ProtoGENI platform at the University of Utah and two VNode infrastructures in Japan, the slice creation and deletion time was measured and evaluated to be acceptable. Although this federation-less-federation implementation still has several minor problems, it was proved to be useful for experiments and demonstrations. |

| 3355 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software-defined Networking (SDN) promises to redefine the future of networking. Indeed, SDN-based networks have unique capabilities such as centralized control, flow abstraction, dynamic updating of forwarding rules and software-based traffic analysis. SDN-based networks decouple the data plane from the control plane, migrating the latter to a software controller. By adding a software layer between network devices and applications, features such as network virtualization and automated management are simpler to achieve. In this dissertation, we show how SDN-based deployments simplify network management at multiple scales such as campus and transport networks, as well as future Internet architectures. First, we propose OpenSec, an SDN-based security framework that allows network operators to implement security policies in campus networks. Second, we propose the eXtensible Traffic Engineering Framework (XTEF) to enable application-driven traffic engineering and provision transport network resources using on-demand Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) tunnels. Third, we demonstrate how SDN can be used to dynamically create intra-domain cut-through switching tunnels to bypass the routing layer in MobilityFirst. Finally, we propose how to extend the cut-through capabilities to inter-domain routing in MobilityFirst. In our work, we run experiments on the GENI testbed (Global Environment for Network Innovations), the ORBIT (Open-Access Research Testbed for Next-Generation Wireless Networks) and Mininet. The results show that SDN can be used to simplify policy-based network management, virtualize an entire WAN as a single switch, create Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) tunnels on demand and create inter-domain tunnels using techniques that scale better than traditional distributed methods. |

| 3368 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Elastic optical networking (EON), with its flexible use of the optical spectrum, is a promising solution for future metro/core optical networking. For the deployment of EON in a real-operational scenario, the dynamic lightpath restoration, driven by an intelligent control plane, is a necessary network function. Dynamic restoration can restore network services automatically and, thus, greatly reduce the operational cost, compared with traditional manual or semistatic lightpath restoration strategies enabled by network operators via a network management system. To this end, in this paper, we present an OpenFlow-enabled dynamic lightpath restoration in elastic optical networks, detailing the restoration framework and algorithm, the failure isolation mechanism, and the proposed OpenFlow protocol extensions. We quantitatively present the restoration performance via control plane experimental tests on the Global Environment for Network Innovations testbed. |

| 3394 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization technologies allow service providers to request partitioned, QoS guaranteed and fault-tolerant virtual networks provisioned by the substrate network provider (i.e., physical infrastructure provider). A virtualized networking environment (VNE) has common features such as partition, flexibility, etc., but fault-tolerance requires additional efforts to provide survivability against failures on either virtual networks or the substrate network. Two common survivability paradigms are protection (proactive) and restoration (reactive). In the protection scheme, the substrate network provider (SNP) allocates redundant resources (e.g., nodes, paths, bandwidths, etc) to protect against potential failures in the VNE. In the restoration scheme, the SNP dynamically allocates resources to restore the networks, and it usually occurs after the failure is detected. In this dissertation, we design a restoration scheme that can be dynamically implemented in a centralized manner by an SNP to achieve survivability against node failures in the VNE. The proposed restoration scheme is designed to be integrated with a protection scheme, where the SNP allocates spare virtual routers (VRs) as standbys for the virtual networks (VN) and they are ready to serve in the restoration scheme after a node failure has been identified. These standby virtual routers (S-VR) are reserved as a sharedbackup for any single node failure, and during the restoration procedure, one of the S-VR will be selected to replace the failed VR. In this work, we present an optimal S-VR selection approach to simultaneously restore multiple VNs affected by failed VRs, where these VRs may be affected by failures within themselves or at their substrate host (i.e., power outage, hardware failures, maintenance, etc.). Furthermore, the restoration scheme is embedded into a dynamic reconfiguration scheme (DRS), so that the affected VNs can be dynamically restored by a centralized virtual network manager (VNM). We first introduce a dynamic reconfiguration scheme (DRS) against node failures in a VNE, and then present an experimental study by implementing this DRS over a realistic VNE using GpENI testbed. For this experimental study, we ran the DRS to restore one VN with a single-VR failure, and the results showed that with a proper S-VR selection, the performance of the affected VN could be well restored. Next, we proposed an Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model with dual–goals to optimally select S-VRs to restore all VNs affected by VR failures while load balancing. We also present a heuristic algorithm based on the model. By considering a number of factors, we present numerical studies to show how the optimal selection is affected. The results show that the proposed heuristic's performance is close to the optimization model when there were sufficient standby virtual routers for each virtual network and the substrate nodes have the capability to support multiple standby virtual routers to be in service simultaneously. Finally, we present the design of a software-defined resilient VNE with the optimal S-VR selection model, and discuss a prototype implementation on the GENI testbed. |

| 3407 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network virtualization enables programmability to the substrate network provider who provisions and manages virtual networks (VNs) for service providers. A mix of software-defined and autonomic technology improves the flexibility of network management, including dynamic reconfiguration in the virtualized networking environment (VNE). Virtual router (VR)s run at a logical level where software failures may be more frequent. Thus, a VR failure is more frequent than a physical router failure on the substrate network. In this paper, we present a software-defined resilient virtualized networking environment where a VN topology can be restored by using a preserved standby virtual router (S-VR) after a VR failure. We illustrate a preliminary autonomic setup of a VNE on the GENI testbed. |

| 3420 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>This paper discusses the design challenges associated with supporting advanced mobility services in the future Internet. The recent transition of the Internet from the fixed host-server model to one in which mobile platforms are the norm motivates a next-generation protocol architecture which provides integrated and efficient support for advanced mobility services. Key wireless access and mobility usage scenarios are identified including host mobility, multihoming, vehicular access and context addressability, and key protocol support requirements are identified in each case. The MobilityFirst (MF) architecture being developed under the National Science Foundation's future Internet Architecture (FIA) program is proposed as a possible realization that meets the identified requirements. MF protocol specifics are given for each wireless/mobile use case, along with sample evaluation results demonstrating achievable performance benefits. |

| 3433 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Advances in the field of cloud computing and networking have led to rapid development and market growth in areas such as online retail, gaming and healthcare. In the field of advanced manufacturing however, the impact has been significantly lesser than expected due to limitations in cloud platforms for fostering community engagement. To address this problem, we study a new cloud-based architecture that provides Platform-asa-Service (PaaS) management capabilities to the manufacturing community for delivering Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ” Apps” to their customers. Our architecture aims at supporting an ” App Marketplace” that thrives on agile development, organic collaboration and scalable sales of next generation manufacturing Apps requiring high-performance simulation and modeling. Towards realizing the vision of the above architecture, our paper involves investigation and implementation of an Ontology Service that interoperates with other common web services related to resource brokering and accounting. Our Ontology Service uses principles of mapping and merging to translate a manufacturing App's collaboration requirements to suitable resource specifications on public cloud platforms. Integrated resultant ontology can be queried to provision the required resource parameters such as amount of memory/storage, number of processing units, and network protocol configurations needed for deployment of an App. We validate the effectiveness of our Ontology Service using the Protégé framework in a pilot testbed of a real-world ” WheelSim” App in the NSF GENI Cloud platform. Our ontology integration results show benefits to an App developer in terms of: optimal user experience, lower design time and lower cost/simulation. |

| 3446 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>In this paper we report the results of a qualitative research study of the GENI cyberinfrastructure: a program of four federated cyberinfrastructures. Drawing on theories of stakeholder positioning, we examine how different GENI stakeholders attempt to enlist new participants in the cyberinfrastructures of GENI, and leverage existing relationships to create sustainable infrastructure. This study contributes to our understanding of how cyberinfrastructures emerge over time through processes of stakeholder alignment, enrollment, and through synergies among stakeholder groups. We explore these issues to better understand how cyberinfrastructures can be designed to sustain over time. |

| 3459 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Information-centric networks (ICNs) replace IP addresses with content names at the thin waist of the Internet hourglass, thereby enabling pervasive router-level caching at the network layer. In this paper, we revisit pervasive content caching and propose an algorithm for cache replacement at ICN routers by incorporating principles from network cod- ing, a technique used to achieve maximum flow rates in multicast. By introducing a low computational cost in the system, network-coded caching better utilizes the available small storage space at the routers to cache more effectively in the network. Results of our experiments on the global enterprise for network innovations (GENI) testbed demon- strating the performance of our algorithm on a real network are included in the paper. We evaluate the algorithm in two different traffic scenarios (i) video-on-demand (VoD) (ii) Zipf-based web traffic. Working with the named data networking implementation of ICN, we also present the addi- tional headers and logical components that are needed to enable network-coded caching. In a nutshell, we show that an integrated coding-and-caching strategy can provide sig- nificant gains in latency and content delivery rate for a small computational overhead. |

| 3472 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Repeating research in computer science requires more than just code and data: it requires an appropriate environment in which to run experiments. In some cases, this environment appears fairly straightforward: it consists of a particular operating system and set of required libraries. In many cases, however, it is considerably more complex: the execution environment may be an entire network, may involve complex and fragile configuration of the dependencies, or may require large amounts of resources in terms of computation cycles, network bandwidth, or storage. Even the s̈traightforward ̈case turns out to be surprisingly intricate: there may be explicit or hidden dependencies on compilers, kernel quirks, details of the ISA, etc. The result is that when one tries to repeat published results, creating an environment sufficiently similar to one in which the experiment was originally run can be troublesome; this problem only gets worse as time passes. What the computer science community needs, then, are environments that have the explicit goal of enabling repeatable research. This paper outlines the problem of repeatable research environments, presents a set of requirements for such environments, and describes one facility that attempts to address them. |

| 3485 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimentation is an invaluable part of learning in all sciences. However, building and maintaining laboratories is expensive, time and space consuming. Moreover, in computer science advances in technology can quickly make the infrastructure obsolete. In this paper we advocate the use of recently deployed public testbeds as remote labs for computer science education. As an example we describe the successful use of the GENI testbed in graduate and undergraduate courses and present a specific case study of GENI being used in an undergraduate class on Network Management and Intelligent Networks. |

| 3498 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Software Defined Networks make it possible to decouple routing from forwarding, allowing the routing decisions to be made by a (logically)centralized controller which are then communicated to the switches in the network (for example, via the Open Flow protocol). One problem facing end users is the need to map high level abstractions -- like the path a flow should take -- to a set of low level forwarding rules tailored to, and installed at, every switch along the path. Installing such rules manually is tedious and error prone, and writing a controller program to do it is equally, if not more, challenging. In this paper, we propose a new set of tools that allow users (experimenters)to easily map their high level routing policies to low level Open Flow rules, and to help users reverse engineer high level policies from the installed set of low level flow rules. The tools provide users with the abstraction of end-to-end flows that users can install, list, and delete. The tools automatically handle the details of computing and installing all the rules needed to implement end-to-end flows, and are also capable of identifying flows and, if desired, removing flows that already exist. The tools have been implemented as modules in the GENI Desktop providing users with a graphical interface to their flows. In addition, we have implemented a module to monitor the performance of flows that have been installed. We describe our prototype implementation and present performance numbers obtained via the service. |

| 3511 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Multi-tenant cloud infrastructures are increasingly used for high-performance and high-throughput domain science applications. Various cloud platforms, such as OpenStack and Amazon EC2, along with research efforts, such as NSF GENI and FutureGrid have attracted scientists to these platforms with the promise of virtually infinite compute resources. This paper presents work toward providing better resource allocation accounting in multi-tenant cloud environments by understanding the subtle interference between network, compute, and storage resources. The experiments provide insight that help cloud administrators know how to best distribute virtual cores to physical cores considering the effect of advanced virtual network technologies on remote block I/O performance. The results show that SR-IOV network interfaces to an SSD iSCSI device can provide extremely fast block I/O with minimal CPU overhead and minimal performance interference between tenants. In addition, careful mapping of virtual computation to physical computational cores is critical to increasing performance isolation. |

| 3524 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Experimental platforms (testbeds) play a significant role in the evaluation of new and existing technologies. Their popularity has been raised lately as more and more researchers prefer experimentation over simulation as a way for acquiring more accurate results. This imposes significant challenges in testbed operators since an efficient mechanism is needed to manage the testbed's resources and provision them according to the users' needs. In this paper we describe such a framework which was implemented for the management of networking testbeds. We present the design requirements and the implementation details, along with the challenges we encountered during its operation in the NITOS testbed. Significant results were extracted through the experiences of the every day operation of the testbed's management. |

| 3537 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>With the rise of video streaming and cloud services, enterprise and access networks receive much more traffic than they send, and must rely on the Internet to offer good end-to-end performance. These edge networks often connect to multiple ISPs for better performance and reliability, but have only limited ways to influence which of their ISPs carries the traffic for each service. In this paper, we present Sprite, a software-defined solution for flexible inbound traffic engineering (TE). Sprite offers direct, fine-grained control over inbound traffic, by announcing different public IP prefixes to each ISP, and performing source network address translation (SNAT) on outbound request traffic. Our design achieves scalability in both the data plane (by performing SNAT on edge switches close to the clients) and the control plane (by having local agents install the SNAT rules). The controller translates high-level TE objectives, based on client and server names, as well as performance metrics, to a dynamic network policy based on real-time traffic and performance measurements. We evaluate Sprite with live data from ïn the wild ̈experiments on an EC2-based testbed, and demonstrate how Sprite dynamically adapts the network policy to achieve high-level TE objectives, such as balancing YouTube traffic among ISPs to improve video quality. |

| 3550 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>An architecture called the slice-exchange-point (SEP) has been designed for federating heterogeneous net-work-virtualization platforms by creating and managing slices (virtual networks). SEP enables whole inter-domain resources to be managed by the network manager of any single domain. Slice-operation commands are propagated to other domains through SEP by using a common API. SEP introduces the following four features: infrastructure neutrality, single interface federation, abstract and clean federation, and extensibility of capabilities. SEP's functions to achieve these features are discussed. SEP was partially implemented on two VNode domains and one ProtoGENI domain and was verified to function effectively. |

| 3563 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>The quality of data exchange in cloud computing applications relies on the connection performance between user clients and their cloud storage providers, and is often dependent on the wide area network (WAN) properties among data centers. For certain classes of applications, it can be crucial to provide an end-to-end solution that accelerates large data transfers and improves overall user experience. The development and deployment of WAN optimization technology has been investigated for improving application perfor- mance in heterogeneous, multi-domain environments. WAN opti- mization devices and services implement a number of approaches for performance improvement, and one key insight is that in contrast to traditional end-to-end TCP connections, middleboxes that segment and optimize transport-layer connections can im- prove the performance of wide area data transfers. In the context of dynamic cloud computing environments, there is an obvious target for implementations of WAN optimization as Network Function Virtualization (NFV), where the flexibility of virtualized cloud environments can be exploited. This paper describes recent developments and experimentation of our Phoebus WAN accelerator framework. We introduce a software suite that includes new Phoebus clients that operate with the Phoebus Gateway network. We test and discuss virtualizing Phoebus Gateways to provide acceleration services in cloud data transfers. Use cases and performance evaluations are conducted on FutureGrid and Internet2 testbeds, and we demonstrate the effectiveness of a virtualized Phoebus deployment. |

| 3576 | | <br><br><b>Abstract: </b>Network resource measurement is a key functionality for large scale network management. Intelligent, network-aware applications may benefit from access to detailed representations of network resources, including multi-layer topologies and real-time traffic measurement, and shared resources may obtain better overall utilization by identifying performance bottlenecks. In this study, we describe a network measurement framework, which includes a network topology analysis mechanism as well as agent tools for running active probes and collecting data from end hosts. The system includes a centralized coordinator, which abstracts network elements into annotated network graphs and applies scheduling algorithms to calculate conflict free measurement probes over shared links. Our evaluation integrated perfSONAR services into our framework and included deployment scenarios on research and education networks such as Internet2 and ESnet. The data presented in this study offers compelling evidence that supports a method by which to measure the performance of real world networks. |
