Celerity: a low-delay multi-party conferencing solution.January 2012 (has links)
In this thesis, we attempt to revisit the problem of multi-party conferencing from a practical perspective, and tore think the design space involved in this problem. We believe that an emphasis on low end-to-end delays between any two parties in the conference is a must, and the source sending rate in a session should adapt to bandwidth availability and congestion. We present Celerity, a multi-party conferencing solution specifically designed to achieve our objectives. It is entirely Peer-to-Peer(P2P), and as such eliminating the cost of maintaining centrally administered servers. It is designed to deliver video with low end-to-end delays, at quality levels commensurate with available network resources over arbitrary network topologies where bottlenecks can be anywhere in the network. This is in contrast to commonly assumed P2P scenarios where bandwidth bottlenecks reside only at the edge of the network. The highlight in our design is a distributed and adaptive rate control protocol, that can discover and adapt to arbitrary topologies and network conditions quickly, converging to efficient link rate allocations allowed by the underlying network. In accordance with adaptive link rate control, source video encoding rates are also dynamically controlled to op-timize video quality in arbitrary and unpredictable network conditions. Celerity runs on the application layer and uses UDP to deliver the data. With the distributed rate control protocol, Celerity can deliver video at quality levels without the acknowledge of the underlying network topology, bandwidth, and the routing. We have implemented Celerity in a prototype system, and demonstrateits su¬perior performance over existing solutions in a local experimental test bed and over the Internet. In addition, using Celerity we have developed a multi-party conferencing system which provides real-time video and audio communication and allows users to dynamically join and leave, it achieves better user experience(low delay and high throughput) than existing products. / Chen, Xiangwen. / Thesis (M.Phil.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2012. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 66-68). / Abstract --- p.i / Acknowledgement --- p.iii / Chapter 1 --- Introduction --- p.1 / Chapter 1.1 --- Motivation --- p.1 / Chapter 1.2 --- Contribution --- p.2 / Chapter 1.3 --- Thesis Organization --- p.4 / Chapter 2 --- Related Work --- p.5 / Chapter 3 --- Problem Formulation and Celerity Overview --- p.7 / Chapter 3.1 --- Settings --- p.7 / Chapter 3.2 --- Problem Formulation --- p.9 / Chapter 3.3 --- Celerity Overview --- p.10 / Chapter 4 --- Packing Delay-bounded Trees --- p.13 / Chapter 5 --- Overlay Link Rate Control --- p.18 / Chapter 5.1 --- Considering Both Delay and Loss --- p.18 / Chapter 5.2 --- A Loss-Delay Based Primal-Subgradient-Dual Algorithm --- p.20 / Chapter 5.3 --- Computing Subgradients of R{U+2098}(c{U+2098}, D) --- p.23 / Chapter 6 --- PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION --- p.26 / Chapter 6.1 --- Peer Functionality --- p.26 / Chapter 6.2 --- Critical Cut Calculation --- p.29 / Chapter 6.3 --- Utility Function --- p.29 / Chapter 6.4 --- Opportunistic Local Loss Recovery --- p.29 / Chapter 6.5 --- Fast Bootstrapping --- p.30 / Chapter 6.6 --- Operation Overhead --- p.30 / Chapter 6.7 --- Peer Computation Overhead --- p.31 / Chapter 6.8 --- System Implementation --- p.32 / Chapter 7 --- Experiments --- p.34 / Chapter 7.1 --- LAN Testbed Experiments --- p.34 / Chapter 7.1.1 --- Absence of Network Dynamics --- p.36 / Chapter 7.1.2 --- Cross Traffic --- p.39 / Chapter 7.1.3 --- Link Failure --- p.40 / Chapter 7.2 --- Peer Dynamics Experiments --- p.41 / Chapter 7.3 --- Internet Experiments --- p.42 / Chapter 8 --- Concluding Remarks --- p.46 / Chapter A --- Packing Delay-bounded Trees in the Presence of Helpers --- p.47 / Chapter B --- Proof of Theorem 1 and Theorem 3 --- p.50 / Chapter C --- Proof of Corollary 1 and Corollary 2 --- p.56 / Chapter D --- Proof of Proposition 1 --- p.58 / Chapter E --- Proof of Theorem 2 --- p.60 / Bibliography --- p.66

Analysis and optimization of peer-to-peer systems under churn. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2007 (has links)
In peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, the phenomenon of churn (i.e., peer dynamics) will destroy the overlay structure, cause the loss of data objects, deteriorate the lookup performance, increase the bandwidth cost, and thus impact the performance of distributed applications greatly. Due to the prevalence of churn in real environments, it is essential to get a better understanding on how peer-to-peer systems evolve under churn and how to optimize the system performance under churn. In this thesis, we focus our research on the analysis and optimization of peer-to-peer systems under churn. Our research work falls into three main aspects: object storage under churn, object lookup under churn, and object (or load) balancing under churn. / Lastly, we study the effectiveness of two representative load balancing strategies in DHT-based P2P systems, (1) Rendezvous Directory Strategy (RDS) and (2) Independent Searching Strategy (ISS), under system churn. It enables us to have a clear understanding about their efficiency, scalability and robustness. Based on the analysis results, we also propose a Group Multicast Strategy (GMS) for load balancing in DHT systems, which attempts to achieve the benefits of both RDS and ISS. In order to have a better understanding of GMS, we also perform analytical studies on GMS in terms of its scalability and efficiency under churn. Finally, the effectiveness of GMS is evaluated by extensive simulation under different workload and churn levels. / Next, we consider the problem of optimizing lookup performance in DHT-based P2P systems under churn. We analytically study three important aspects on the optimization of DHT lookup performance, i.e., lookup strategy, lookup parallelism and lookup key replication. Our objective is to build a theoretical basis for the designers to make better choices in their future design. We first compare the performance of two representative lookup strategies - recursive routing and iterative routing, and explore the existence of better alternatives. Then we study the effectiveness of lookup parallelism in systems with different churn rates and show how to select the optimal degree of parallelism. Due to the importance of key replication on lookup performance, we also analyze the reliability of replicated keys under two different replication policies, and show how to perform proper configuration. Later, our results are also validated by simulation, and Kad is taken as a case to show the meaningfulness of our analysis. / We firstly develop a stochastic model to shed light on the evolution of stored objects in peer-to-peer systems under different types of churn, and analytically study the interplay between object maintenance and churn. To avoid the complexity of Markovian modeling, our model is based on stochastic differential equations, and thus we can provide closed-form terms to capture the system time-evolution, and formally derive asymptotic performance metrics of P2P storage systems under different maintenance strategies and various kinds of churn. Our analytical results provide some important insights in object maintenance under churn, which are useful in the optimization of P2P storage systems, e.g., reducing bandwidth usage, provisioning for bandwidth spike, improving system capacity, etc. Besides analytical study, our analysis is also validated by extensive simulation. / Wu, Di. / "July 2007." / Adviser: Kam-Wing Ng. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 69-01, Section: B, page: 0443. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2007. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 174-188). / Electronic reproduction.

Contributions à la modélisation, évaluation et conception de systèmes de recherche d'information en pair-à-pair / Contributions for modeling, evaluating and designing peer-to-peer information retrieval systemsSicard, Jérôme 23 November 2010 (has links)
Cette thèse se base sur une vision originale des systèmes de Recherche d'Information en pair-à-pair (RI-P2P) ; pour proposer un ensemble d'outils pour mieux les évaluer et mieux les concevoir.Synthétiquement, la problématique d'évaluation consiste à comprendre quel système fonctionne bien dans quelles conditions ; comment les différents composants/aspects d'un système contribuent à ses performances ; comment des modifications du système peuvent faire évoluer ses performances. D'un point de vue conception, on voudrait savoir choisir une approche P2P en fonction du contexte de l'application à implémenter (jeu de données, propriétés du réseau...) ; comprendre comment mixer des systèmes ; mieux maîtriser l'impact d'une modification de l'implémentation sur le comportement et les performances d'un système.Nous pensons que ces deux problématiques d'évaluation et de conception sont fortement liées. Un même fondement est nécessaire pour progresser dans ces deux sens : mieux comprendre l'architecture des systèmes RI-P2P. À la base de notre réflexion, nous considérons qu'un système RI-P2P est l'implémentation en P2P d'un modèle RI, idée qui s'oppose au modèle traditionnel en deux couches. Nous nous appuyons sur cette idée pour donner un ensemble de définitions qui permettent de mieux appréhender les différents composants RI et composants P2P d'un même système et la façon dont ils s'organisent. Nous montrons ensuite comment on peut utiliser cette vision originale du domaine pour spécifier la démarche d'évaluation d'un système P2P et pour aider à la conception de nouveaux systèmes. / This PhD thesis develops an original vision of Peer-to-Peer Information Retrieval Systems. Based on this vision, we ropose a set of tools for a better evaluation and conception of P2P-IR systems.Synthetically, on the one hand, evaluating means understanding which system behaves well in which context ; how different components/aspects of a single system contribute to its performance ; how modifications of the system can make its performance evolve. On the other hand, considering design of P2P-IR systems, we would like to be able to choose a P2P approach based on what is known about the context the application will execute in (data set, network properties...) ; understand how to mix P2P systems ; better control the impact of a modification of the implementation of a system on its behavior an performance.We believe those concerns of evaluation and design are strongly related. There is a common need to improve on both directions : better understand the architecture of P2P-IR systems. On the basis of our reflexion, we consider a P2P-IR system is the implementation in P2P of an IR system, which contrasts with the traditional two-layered vision. We use this idea to give a set of definitions that help better understand the different RI and P2P components of a single system and their relationships. We then show how this vision can be used to help design new systems.
