While there is limited in-network support for traffic prioritization, existing endto-end, “low priority transport protocols” exhibit sub-optimal performance in cellular networks. We propose Sneaker, which yields to time-sensitive foreground traffic during periods of congestion and enables time-insensitive background traffic to efficiently utilize any spare capacity. Sneaker achieves the desired goal by randomly dropping packets coming into the base station, based on traffic type and network conditions. Our key contribution is the derivation of the optimal dropping rate and a practical dropping rate, which performs close to optimal. Further, Sneaker co-exists and performs well with existing cellular schedulers and transport protocols.","PeriodicalId":214356,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114929531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They provide real-time support in disaster/incident response or crowd protest management scenarios by e.g., counting human/vehicles, or recognizing faces/objects. However, deployment of such applications for real-time video analytics at geo-distributed areas presents new challenges in processing intensive media-rich data to meet users’ Quality of Experience (QoE) expectations, due to limited computing power on the devices. In this paper, we present a novel policy-based decision computation offloading scheme that not only facilitates trade-offs in performance vs. cost, but also aids in offloading decision to either an Edge, Cloud or Function-Centric Computing resource architecture for real-time video analytics. To evaluate our offloading scheme, we decompose an existing computer vision pipeline for object/motion detection and object classification into a chain of container-based micro-service functions that communicate via a RESTful API. We evaluate the performance of our scheme on a realistic geo-distributed edge/core cloud testbed using different policies and computing architectures. Results show how our scheme utilizes state-of-the-art computation offloading techniques to Pareto-optimally trade-off performance (i.e., frames-per-second) vs. cost factors (using Amazon Web Services Lambda pricing) during real-time drone video analytics, and thus fosters effective environmental situational awareness.","PeriodicalId":214356,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)","volume":"242 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124663901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, a new smart queue management system called Common Applications Kept Enhanced (CAKE) has been introduced in Linux 4.19 to tackle the problem of bufferbloat in home Internet gateways. One of the integral parts of CAKE system is COBALT (CoDel and BLUE Alternate), a queue discipline which is a combination of Controlled Delay (CoDel) and BLUE algorithms. Although CAKE is a part of the Linux kernel, a detailed discussion on the design of COBALT is missing. In this paper, we discuss the design of COBALT and compare its performance with CoDel. Additionally, we propose a simulation model for COBALT in ns-3 and test its correctness by comparing the results obtained from it to those obtained from the Linux model. Our evaluation shows that COBALT offers substantial benefits in terms of curtailing queue delays when unresponsive flows exist.","PeriodicalId":214356,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)","volume":"244 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129494764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We previously developed a lightweight compressed 8K UHDTV transceiver, which can transmit and receive 8K video with high image quality and low processing-latency in real time. In remote production, low-delay live video transmission over a network is required, so when designing such a network, it is necessary to determine whether the network can satisfy the required transmission-delay time in advance. We conducted a remote production experiment via a commercial network and clarified the relation between the required transmission-delay time for remote production and factors that constitute transmission-delay time. It was found that the transmission-delay time of 1-video frame or less can be achieved if the number of routers is 4 and the path length is about 600 km.","PeriodicalId":214356,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132430275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most challenging problems in this environment is deploying and organizing in a large-scale and multi-domain infrastructure, which contains geographically distributed but interconnected data-centers. The proposed solution focuses on the extra networking operations required in a NFV infrastructure, managed by Open Source MANO, OpenStack and OpenDaylight.

By enabling just-in-time startup of container-based services, these platforms can achieve good multiplexing and automatically respond to traffic growth, making them particularly desirable for edge cloud data centers where resources are scarce. Edge cloud data centers are also gaining attention because of their promise to provide responsive, low-latency shared computing and storage resources. Bringing serverless capabilities to edge cloud data centers must continue to achieve the goals of low latency and reliability. The reliability guarantees provided by serverless computing however are weak, with node failures causing requests to be dropped or executed multiple times. Thus serverless computing only provides a best effort infrastructure, leaving application developers responsible for implementing stronger reliability guarantees at a higher level. Current approaches for providing stronger semantics such as “exactly once” guarantees could be integrated into serverless platforms, but they come at high cost in terms of both latency and resource consumption. As edge cloud services move towards applications such as autonomous vehicle control that require strong guarantees for both reliability and performance, these approaches may no longer be sufficient. In this paper we evaluate the latency, throughput, and resource costs of providing different reliability guarantees, with a focus on these emerging edge cloud platforms and applications.","PeriodicalId":214356,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115227388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
