The virtual network (VN) embedding/mapping problem is recognized as an essential question of network virtualization. The VN embedding problem is a major challenge in this field. Its target is to efficiently map the virtual nodes and virtual links onto the substrate network resources. Previous research focused on designing heuristic-based algorithms or attempting two-stage solutions by solving node mapping in the first stage and link mapping in the second stage. In this study, we propose a new VN embedding algorithm based on integer programming. We build a model of an augmented substrate graph, and formulate the VN embedding problem as an integer program with an objective function and some constraints. A factor of topology-awareness is added to the objective function. The VN embedding problem is solved in one stage. Simulation results show that our algorithm greatly enhances the acceptance ratio, and increases the revenue/cost (R/C) ratio and the revenue while decreasing the cost of the VN embedding problem. 相似文献

Network virtualization provides the ability to run multiple concurrent virtual networks over a shared substrate. However, it is challenging to design such a platform to host multiple heterogenous and often highly customized virtual networks. Not only high degree of flexibility is desired for virtual networks to customize their functions, fast packet forwarding is also required. This paper presents PdP, a flexible network virtualization platform capable of achieving high speed packet forwarding. A PdP node has multiple machines to perform packet processing for virtual networks hosted in the system. To forward packets in high speed, the data plane of a virtual network in PdP can be allocated with multiple forwarding machines to process packets in parallel. Furthermore, a virtual network in PdP can be fully customized. Both the control plane and data plane of a virtual network run in virtual machines so as to be isolated from other virtual networks. We have built a proof-of-concept prototyping PdP platform using off-the-shelf commodity hardware and open source software. The performance evaluation results show that our system can closely match the best-known packet forwarding speed of software router running in commodity hardware. 相似文献

Network virtualization is not only regarded as a promising technology to create an ecosystem for cloud computing applications, but also considered a promising technology for the future Internet. One of the most important issues in network virtualization is the virtual network embedding (VNE) problem, which deals with the embedding of virtual network (VN) requests in an underlying physical (substrate network) infrastructure. When both the node and link constraints are considered, the VN embedding problem is NP-hard, even in an offline situation. Some Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques have been applied to the VNE algorithm design and displayed their abilities. This paper aims to compare the computational effectiveness and efficiency of different AI techniques for handling the cost-aware VNE problem. We first propose two kinds of VNE algorithms, based on Ant Colony Optimization and genetic algorithm. Then we carry out extensive simulations to compare the proposed VNE algorithms with the existing AI-based VNE algorithms in terms of the VN Acceptance Ratio, the long-term revenue of the service provider, and the VN embedding cost. 相似文献

Network virtualization has been proposed as a technology that aims to solve the Internet ossification. Central to the network virtualization is a virtual network composition mechanism providing an efficient mapping of virtual nodes and links onto appropriate physical resources in the network infrastructure.This paper proposes a novel backtracking heuristic algorithm for virtual network composition. Based on this algorithm, two approaches with two different objectives are presented. The first approach (Backtracking-CR) aims to compose a virtual network using the least amount of network resources, while the second (Backtracking-LB) applies load balancing for virtual network composition. Furthermore, a linear programming approach that optimizes the virtual network composition with an objective of using the least amount of network resources is presented and used to bench mark the heuristic algorithm. Simulation results show that using less network resources by applying linear programming or Backtracking-CR does not produce higher number of successfully mapped virtual networks when is compared to load balancing approach. Results also show that the proposed heuristic algorithm is scalable to large physical and virtual networks with respect to the computation time. 相似文献

Performance improvement for applying network virtualization in fiber-wireless (FiWi) access networks
Qing-long DAI Guo-chu SHOU Yi-hong HU Zhi-gang GUO 《浙江大学学报:C卷英文版》2014,15(11):1058-1070
Fiber-wireless (FiWi) access networks, which are a combination of fiber networks and wireless networks, have the advantages of both networks, such as high bandwidth, high security, low cost, and flexible access. However, with the increasing need for bandwidth and types of service from users~ FiWi networks are still relatively incapable and ossified. To alleviate bandwidth tension and facilitate new service deployment, we attempt to apply network virtualization in FiWi networks, in which the network's control plane and data plane are separated from each other. Based on a previously proposed hierarchical model and service model for FiWi network virtualization, the process of service implementation is described. The performances of the FiWi access networks applying network virtualization are analyzed in detail, including bandwidth for links, throughput for nodes, and multipath flow transmission. Simulation results show that the FiWi network with virtualization is superior to that without. 相似文献

在软件定义网络(SDN)虚拟网络映射中,现有研究者主要考虑请求接受率方面,而忽视了SDN中底层资源失效的问题。为此,针对SDN中可靠性虚拟网络映射(SVNE)问题,提出了一种联合先验式保护和后验式恢复的虚拟网络映射保障机制。首先,在虚拟请求接受之前,对SDN物理网络区域性资源进行感知;然后,采用先验式保护机制为映射域内相对剩余资源变小的虚拟网络元素预留备份物理资源,并将此扩展虚拟网络通过D-ViNE算法映射至物理网络中;最后,在未备份虚拟网络元素发生故障时,采用后验式恢复算法完成故障的恢复,对节点和链路分别采用重映射和重路由的方法完成恢复。实验结果表明,与基于SDN的生存性虚拟网络映射算法(SDN-SVNE)相比,在虚拟请求接受率方面提高了21.9%。另外,该保护机制在虚拟级别故障恢复率、物理级别故障恢复率等方面也具有优势。 相似文献

The paper addresses the problem of locating sensors with a circular field of view so that a given line segment is under full surveillance, which is termed as the disc covering problem on a line. The cost of each sensor includes a fixed component f, and a variable component that is a convex function of the diameter of the field-of-view area. When only one type of sensor or, in general, one type of disc, is available, then a simple polynomial algorithm solves the problem. When there are different types of sensors, the problem becomes hard. A branch-and-bound algorithm as well as an efficient heuristic are developed for the special case in which the variable cost component of each sensor is proportional to the square of the measure of the field-of-view area. The heuristic very often obtains the optimal solution as shown in extensive computational testing. 相似文献

This paper studies the virtual network function placement (VNF-P) problem in the context of network function virtualization (NFV), where the end-to-end delay of a requested service function chain (SFC) is minimized and the compute, storage, I/O and bandwidth resources are considered. To address this problem, an integer encoding grey wolf optimizer (IEGWO) is proposed. IEGWO has two significant features, namely an integer encoding scheme and a new wolf position update mechanism. The integer encoding scheme is problem-specific and offers a natural way to represent VNF-P solutions. The proposed wolf position update mechanism divides the wolf pack into two groups in each iteration, where one group performs exploitation while the other focuses on global exploration. It provides the search with a balanced local exploitation and global exploration during evolution. Performance evaluation has been conducted based on 20 test instances and IEGWO is compared with five state-of-the-art meta-heuristics, including the black hole algorithm (BH), the genetic algorithm (GA), the group counseling optimization (GCO), the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the teaching–learning-based optimization (TLBO). Simulation results demonstrate that compared with BH, GA, GCO, PSO and TLBO, IEGWO achieves significantly better solution quality regarding the mean (standard deviation), boxplot and t-test results of the best fitness values obtained. 相似文献

We consider a problem that marries network flows and scheduling, motivated by the need to schedule maintenance activities in infrastructure networks, such as rail or general logistics networks. Network elements must undergo regular preventive maintenance, shutting down the arc for the duration of the activity. Careful coordination of these arc maintenance jobs can dramatically reduce the impact of such shutdown jobs on the flow carried by the network. Scheduling such jobs between given release dates and deadlines so as to maximize the total flow over time presents an intriguing case to study the role of time discretization. Here we prove that if the problem data is integer, and no flow can be stored at nodes, we can restrict attention to integer job start times. However if flow can be stored, fractional start times may be needed. This makes traditional strong integer programming scheduling models difficult to apply. Here we formulate an exact integer programming model for the continuous time problem, as well as integer programming models based on time discretization that can provide dual bounds, and that can – with minor modifications – also yield primal bounds. The resulting bounds are demonstrated to have small gaps on test instances, and offer a good trade-off for bound quality against computing time. 相似文献
