Abstract

Software defined networking (SDN) is a rapidly growing networking paradigm in both industry and research areas, with network programmability as its powerful feature which enables propagating changes in the network easily. However, the links and switches are designed to accommodate maximum traffic load and their power consumption is not traffic aware. The logically centralized control in SDN enables dynamically minimizing the energy consumption of the links and the switches by diverting paths of packets. Energy efficiency and performance are opposite objectives that have to be addressed simultaneously. As the main contributions in this study, we first propose an energy efficiency metric Energy Profit Threshold (EPT) that is applicable to SDN. Then, we provide Integer Programming (IP) formulation with the objective of maximizing the EPT of a software defined network environment. Experimental results show that maximizing the EPT value exhibits energy saving of more than 35 % as compared to other utility based energy saving algorithms.

软件定义网络中一种新的基于效用的能效度量和路由

软件定义网络(SDN)是在工业和研究领域迅速发展的一种网络模式，其强大的特点是网络可编程性，可以轻松地在网络中传播变化。然而，链路和交换机的设计是为了适应最大的流量负载，它们的功耗不是流量感知的。SDN逻辑上的集中控制，通过分流报文的路径，动态降低链路和交换机的能耗。能源效率和性能是相反的目标，必须同时解决。作为本研究的主要贡献，我们首先提出了一个适用于SDN的能效指标energy Profit Threshold (EPT)。然后，我们提供了以最大化软件定义网络环境的EPT为目标的整数规划(IP)公式。实验结果表明，与其他基于效用的节能算法相比，最大化EPT值的节能效果超过35%。
