Concurrent Multipath Transfer distributes incoming traffic simultaneously between several paths to maximize network resource utilization and to improve quality of service. Voices over IP real time application is more sensitive to delay and requires bandwidth guarantee. In this paper, Efficient Bandwidth Estimation Management for VoIP Concurrent Multipath Transfer is proposed. The proposed technique estimates the bandwidth of each path from a group and selects multiple paths from SCTP multihoming association to transmit VoIP traffic with assured bandwidth guarantees. Simulation results are reported using Ns2 network simulator to show the efficiency of the proposed system.

With traffic increase in a wireless network beyond its capacity and as the number of connected devices continue to grow, the quality of service (QoS) degrades. In this paper we study the impact of mobility on throughput in the case of an infrastructure wireless network using IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi standard. Since we found in the literature that the mobility of stations can have an impact on the quality of service, we try to remedy to this by implementing a new access category reserved for mobile stations. First we compare the throughput between static and mobile nodes, both connected to a QoS station. Then we propose our new model that consists of adding a new access category used by mobile nodes regardless of their traffic category. The study was made by simulating different scenarios using Network Simulator-3 (NS-3). We found that the throughput may vary depending on the simulation scenario. The simulation results show that with the proposed solution the mobile nodes can have a better throughput.

Quality of Service is considered as one of the important specifications in Software Defined Networking and we are focusing on Traffic Engineering which is capable of managing traffic characteristics like bandwidth for improving network performance. In this paper, performance evaluation of Quality of Service parameters such as Packet Delivery Ratio, Packet Delay and Packet Loss are performed with Network simulator 2 for all types of Software Defined Networking topologies. To do such evaluation on these parameters we use Traffic Engineering, which helps on improving the network performance, design mechanisms for routing to manage the traffic in network by improving the network resource usages and other major Quality of Service requisites. So in this proposed methodology, we use point-to-point topology related to traffic calculation which includes network parameters like general calculation of a framework, analyzing the traffic and future indication. Also the work process relevant to traffic management includes bandwidth of the traffic, scheduling of Quality of Service-assurance, saving power and management of traffic in Software Defined Networking. Existing technologies used for the above parameters are discussed below and our insights for future development on traffic engineering between the nodes in Software Defined Networking are offered.

AbstractOptical fibres have been developed as a transmission medium to carry traffic in order to provide various services in telecommunications platform. Failure of this fibre caused loss of data which can interrupt communication services. This paper has been focused only on survivable schemes in order to guarantee both protection and restoration in WDM optical networks. In this paper, a dynamic resilience approach has been proposed whose objective is to route the flows in a way which minimizes the total amount of bandwidth used for working and protection paths. In the proposed approach, path-based protection is utilized because it yields lower overhead and is also suitable for global optimization where, in case of a single link failure, all the flows utilizing the failed link are re-routed to a pre-computed set of paths. The simulation results demonstrate that proposed approach is much more efficient as it provides better quality of services (QoS) in terms of network resource utilization, blocking probability etc. as compared to conventional protection and restoration schemes. The proposed approach seems to offer an attractive combination of features, with both ring like speed and mesh-like efficiency.

Stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) is a transport layer protocol, which is efficient, reliable, and connection-oriented as compared to transmission control protocol (TCP) and user datagram protocol (UDP). Additionally, SCTP has more innovative features like multihoming, multistreaming and unordered delivery. With multihoming, SCTP establishes multiple paths between a sender and receiver. However, it only uses the primary path for data transmission and the secondary path (or paths) for fault tolerance. Concurrent multipath transfer extension of SCTP (CMT-SCTP) allows a sender to transmit data in parallel over multiple paths, which increases the overall transmission throughput. Parallel data transmission is beneficial for higher data rates. Parallel transmission or connection is also good in services such as video streaming where if one connection is occupied with errors the transmission continues on alternate links. With parallel transmission, the unordered data packets arrival is very common at receiver. The receiver has to wait until the missing data packets arrive, causing performance degradation while using CMT-SCTP. In order to reduce the transmission delay at the receiver, CMT-SCTP uses intelligent retransmission polices to immediately retransmit the missing packets. The retransmission policies used by CMT-SCTP are RTX-SSTHRESH, RTX-LOSSRATE and RTX-CWND. The main objective of this paper is the performance analysis of the retransmission policies. This paper evaluates RTX-SSTHRESH, RTX-LOSSRATE and RTX-CWND. Simulations are performed on the Network Simulator 2. In the simulations with various scenarios and parameters, it is observed that the RTX-LOSSRATE is a suitable policy.

Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) is a hybrid solution that combines the advantages of easy forwarding with the ability of guaranteeing quality-of-service (QoS). To deliver reliable service, MPLS requires traffic protection and recovery. Rerouting is one such recovery mechanism. In this paper, we propose a novel rerouting model called DDRAAS that is inspired by the spider and its web in nature. We try to establish an artificial logical spider web in the MPLS network to reorganise it into a structure that is more regular and simple. Based on this, we give the definition of the reroute area. Artificial spiders are then used to explore recovery paths dynamically in the reroute area. DDRAAS can be used to calculate the recovery paths in advance in order to protect the work path, while the improved DDRAAS can be a fast rerouting algorithm to calculate and establish recovery paths when faults occur. We have simulated our mechanism using the MPLS network simulator (MNS) and the performance metrics were compared to those of other proposals. The simulation results show that our mechanism is better in reducing packet loss, disorder and has faster rerouting speed. These improvements help to minimise the effects of link failure and/or congestion.
