Cost-Effective Resource Allocation of Overlay Routing Relay Nodes

Cost-Effective Resource Allocation of Overlay Routing Relay Nodes
ABSTRACT:
Overlay routing is a very attractive scheme that allows improving certain properties of the routing (such as delay or TCP throughput) without the need to change the standards of the current underlying routing. However, deploying overlay routing requires the placement and maintenance of overlay infrastructure. This gives rise to the following optimization problem: Find a minimal set of overlay nodes such that the required routing properties are satisfied. In this paper, we rigorously study this optimization problem. We show that it is NP-hard and derive a nontrivial approximation algorithm for it, where the approximation ratio depends on specific properties of the problem at hand. We examine the practical aspects of the scheme by evaluating the gain one can get over several real scenarios. The first one is BGP routing, and we show, using up-to-date data reflecting the current BGP routing policy in the Internet, that a relative small number of less than 100 relay servers is sufficient to enable routing over shortest paths from a single source to all autonomous systems (ASs), reducing the average path length of inflated paths by 40%. We also demonstrate that the scheme is very useful for TCP performance improvement (results in an almost optimal placement of overlay nodes) and for Voice-over-IP (VoIP) applications where a small number of overlay nodes can significantly reduce the maximal peer-to-peer delay.

EXISTING SYSTEM:
Using overlay routing to improve routing and network performance has been studied before in several works. The authors studied the routing inefficiency in the Internet and used an overlay routing in order to evaluate and study experimental techniques improving the network over the real environment. While the concept of using overlay routing to improve routing scheme was presented in this work, it did not deal with the deployment aspects and the optimization aspect of such infrastructure. A resilient overlay network (RON), which is architecture for application-layer overlay routing to be used on top of the existing Internet routing infrastructure, has been presented. Similar to our work, the main goal of this architecture is to replace the existing routing scheme, if necessary, using the overlay infrastructure. This work mainly focuses on the overlay infrastructure (monitoring and detecting routing problems, and maintaining the overlay system), and it does not consider the cost associated with the deployment of such system.

DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM:
§     In order to deploy overlay routing over the actual physical infrastructure, one needs to deploy and manage overlay nodes that will have the new extra functionality. This comes with a non negligible cost both in terms of capital and operating costs.
§     Our proposed algorithmic framework that can be used in order to deal with efficient resource allocation in overlay routing.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this paper, we concentrate on this point and study the minimum number of infrastructure nodes that need to be added in order to maintain a specific property in the overlay routing. In the shortest-path routing over the Internet BGP-based routing example, this question is mapped to: What is the minimum number of relay nodes that are needed in order to make the routing between a groups of autonomous systems (ASs) use the underlying shortest path between them? In the TCP performance example, this may translate to: What is the minimal number of relay nodes needed in order to make sure that for each TCP connection, there is a path between the connection endpoints for which every predefined round-trip time(RTT), there is an overlay node capable of TCP Piping? Regardless of the specific implication in mind, we define a general optimization problem called the Overlay Routing Resource Allocation (ORRA) problem and study its complexity. It turns out that the problem is NP-hard, and we present a nontrivial approximation algorithm for it.
ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:
Ø We are only interested in improving routing properties between a single source node and a single destination, then the problem is not complicated, and finding the optimal number of nodes becomes trivial since the potential candidate for overlay placement is small, and in general any assignment would be good.
Ø However, when we consider one-to-many or many-to-many scenarios, then a single overlay node may affect the path property of many paths, and thus choosing the best locations becomes much less trivial.


MODULES:
1.     AS-level BGP routing
2.     TPC improvement level
3.     Voice-over-IP

MODULES DESCRIPTION:
AS-level BGP routing:
We consider is AS-level BGP routing, where the goal is to find a minimal number of relay node locations that can allow shortest-path routing between the source–destination pairs. Recall that routing in BGP is policy-based and depends on the business relationship between peering ASs, and as a result, a considerable fraction of the paths in the Internet do not go along a shortest path. This phenomenon, called path inflation, is the motivation for this scenario. We consider a one-to-many setting where we want to improve routing between a single source and many destinations. This is the case where the algorithm power is most significant since, in the many-to-many setting, there is very little overlap between shortest paths, and thus not much improvement can be made over a basic greedy approach. We demonstrate, using real up-to-date Internet data, that the algorithm can suggest a relatively small set of relay nodes that can significantly reduce latency in current BGP routing.
TPC level improvement:
We consider is the TPC level improvement in the wireless networks as explained in the above module. In this case, we test our proposed algorithm on a synthetic random graph, and we show that the general framework can be applied also to this case, resulting in very close-to-optimal results.
Voice-over-IP:
Voice-Over-IP type of applications are becoming more and more popular offering IP telephone services for free, but they need a bounded end-to-end delay (or latency) between any pair of users to maintain a reasonable service quality. We show that our scheme can be very useful also in this case, allowing applications to choose a smaller number of hubs, yet improving performance for many users.
