It compensates for lost and corrupted packets by sending redundant coding packets. Despite the considerable attention RLNC received from the research community, the impact of the number of redundant coded packets on the network performance is poorly understood. An excessive number of redundancies would pollute the network with useless packets that give no additional information, and an insufficient number of redundancies would not provide enough packet loss resilience. We introduce a novel formal model for predicting the number of losses a system will have when RLNC is applied, by optimizing simulation results with the Newton-Raphson method. The model allows the sender to set the minimum amount of RLNC redundancies needed to keep the packet loss under a certain threshold. We validate our model against simulations by calculating the MSE between simulation results and our model.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

While virtual network functions (VNFs) allow greater flexibility compared to hardware based solutions, the VNF abstraction also introduces additional packet processing delays. In this paper, we investigate the practical feasibility of NFV with respect to the tactile Internet latency requirements. We develop, implement, and evaluate Chain bAsed Low latency VNF ImplemeNtation (CALVIN), a low-latency management framework for distributed Service Function Chains (SFCs). CALVIN classifies VNFs into elementary, basic, and advanced VNFs. CALVIN implements elementary and basic VNFs in the kernel space, while advanced VNFs are implemented in the user space. Throughout, CALVIN employs a distributed mapping with one VNF per Virtual Machine (VM) in a MEC system. Moreover, CALVIN avoids the metadata structure processing and batch processing of packets in the conventional Linux networking stack so as to achieve short per-packet latencies. Our rigorous measurements on off-the-shelf conventional networking and computing hardware demonstrate that CALVIN achieves round-trip times from a MEC ingress point via an elementary forwarding VNF and a MEC server to a MEC egress point on the order of 0.32~ms. Our measurements also indicate that MEC network coding and encryption are feasible for small 256 byte packets with an MEC latency budget of .35~ms; whereas, large 1400 byte packets can complete the network coding, but not the encryption within the 0.35~ms.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {article} }

This allows intermediate and end devices, depending their computation power, to select either field to recode and decode coded packets. To ensure a high decoding probability, Fulcrum codes introduce (r) expansion packets at the outer coding stage, to increase the chance of producing linearly independent packets. However, the fixed number (r) hinder the chance of obtaining both high decoding probability and efficient transmission at a reduced computation complexity. We propose tunable expansion packet (TEP) protocols, which adjust the extra coefficients in the outer coding stage based on feedback from receivers. Comprehensive evaluations show that TEP protocols significantly increase goodput and reduce computation complexity while maintaining a low overhead.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

With Network Function Virtualization the elements of the chain can be provisioned in virtual environments on any COTS hardware. This introduces the question of where to position the individual network functions within the virtualization environment. This problem of network function placement has been studied in theory as an optimization problem on a graph. However it is challenging to apply theoretical work on practical deployments. In this paper, we perform a measurement campaign to study the delay introduced by Service Function Chaining. We propose placement heuristics and evaluate the performance on OpenStack. With the proposed heuristics, the service delay can be reduced by more than 20%. We measured the overhead introduced by a network function implemented in user space. The processing delay in user space can be twice as much as the same function in kernel space. More interestingly, we identified a service interruption of more than 1 second after activation of the chain.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

To overcome those disruptive changes, future communication systems are substituting specialized hardware with generic hardware boxes and the softwarization paradigm. Furthermore, this approach allows for quick deployment of new services, which was known to cloud service already. In this paper, we will introduce the most prominent candidates for softwarization such as software defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV) and explain the importance of those technologies for the upcoming 5G communication system and tactile internet applications realizing novel mobile edge computing, storage, and networking solutions. Specifically, we will discuss use cases of SDN/NFV such as network coding as a service, and ultra-reliable distributed edge caching. Finally, we will describe our holistic testbed at 5G Lab Germany as a fundamental step towards creating an experiment infrastructure that anticipates the 5G communication systems and tactile internet applications.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {article} }

The existing LTE-A implementation for content broadcast presents several issues such as indoor coverage, along with low energy and spectral efficiency. Therefore, novel systems that provide efficient massive content delivery and reduced energy consumption are needed. In this paper we present a massive content distribution protocol that combines the benefits of cooperative mobile clouds (CMCs) with Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) through multicast WiFi links. Our main goal is to offload data traffic from the LTE-A link and to reduce the energy consumption at the cooperating UEs. We solve the problem of excessive signaling that oftentimes arises in cooperative approaches by eliminating feedback messages within the CMCs. Instead, we provide a simple but accurate analytic model to correctly configure the number of coded transmissions to be performed within the CMCs. Results show that energy savings of more than 37 percent can be achieved with our protocol when compared to direct content download from the cellular base station. Furthermore, bandwidth utilization at the LTE-A link is sharply reduced.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

However, the current state-of-the-art cellular solution is simply individually unicast the video stream to each node, which is extremely resource-inefficient. In this demo, we show how we perform reliable massive video multicasting over standard LTE links by combining the principle of cooperative networking and Random Linear Network Coding. We offload the majority of the traffic from LTE onto Wifi multicasts, thus increasing the efficiency of the LTE channel usage by multiple orders of magnitude.
