  1. Distributed-Dynamic Capacity Contracting: A congestion pricing framework for Diff-Serv Murat Yuksel and Shivkumar Kalyanaraman Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY.

  2. Overview • Motivation/Context • Framework: Dynamic Capacity Contracting (DCC) • Scheme: Edge-to-Edge Pricing (EEP) • Distributed-DCC • Simulation Experiments • Summary IEEE MMNS 2002

  3. Motivation/Context • Multimedia (MM) applications introduce extensive traffic loads. • Hence, better ways of managing network resources are needed for provision of sufficient QoS for MM applications. • For this purpose, congestion pricing is one of the methods among many others. • Two major implemetation problems: • Timely feedback about price • Congestion information about the network IEEE MMNS 2002

  4. DCC Framework IEEE MMNS 2002

  5. DCC Framework (cont’d) • Solves implementation issues by: • Short-term contracts, i.e. middle-ground between Smart Market and Expected Capacity • Edge-to-edge coordination for price calculation • Users negotiate with the provider at ingress points • The provider estimates user’s incentives by observing user’s traffic at different prices • A simple way of representing user’s incentive is his/her budget • Budget estimation: IEEE MMNS 2002

  6. DCC Framework (cont’d) • The provider offers short-term contracts: • is price per unit volume • Vmax is maximum volume user can contract for • T is contract length • Pv is formulated by “pricing scheme” at the ingress, e.g. EEP, Price Discovery • Vmax is a parameter to be set by soft admission control IEEE MMNS 2002

  7. DCC Framework (cont’d) IEEE MMNS 2002

  8. DCC Framework (cont’d) • Key benefits: • Does not require per-packet accounting • Requires updates to edges only • enables congestion pricing by edge-to-edge congestion detection techniques • deployable on diff-serv architecture of the Internet IEEE MMNS 2002

  9. Edge-to-Edge Pricing (EEP) • At Ingress i, given and : • Balancing supply (edge-to-edge capacity) and demand (budget for route ij) • If is congestion-based (i.e. decreases when congestion, increases when no congestion), then becomes a congestion-sensitive price. • formulation above is optimal for maximization of total user utility. IEEE MMNS 2002

  10. Distributed-DCC • DCC + distributed contracting, i.e. flexibility of advertising local prices • Defines: ways of maintaining stability and fairness of the overall system • Operates on a per-edge-to-edge flow basis • Major components: • Ingresses • Egresses • Logical Pricing Server (LPS) IEEE MMNS 2002

  14. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) • Congestion-Based Capacity Estimator: • Estimates available capacity for each flow fij exiting at Egress j • To calculate it uses: • Congestion indications from Congestion Detector • Actual output rates of flows • Increase when fij generates congestion indications, decrease when it does not, e.g.: IEEE MMNS 2002

  15. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) • Fairness Tuner: • Punish the flows causing more cost! • Punishment function: • A particular version by using from Flow Cost Analyzer: • Max-min fairness, when • Proportional fairness, when IEEE MMNS 2002

  16. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) IEEE MMNS 2002

  17. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) • Capacity Allocator • Receives congestion indications, and • Calculates allowed capacities for each flow • Hard to do w/o knowledge of interior topology • In general, • Flows should share capacity of the same bottleneck in proportion to their budgets • Flows traversing multiple bottlenecks should be punished accordingly IEEE MMNS 2002

  18. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) • An example Capacity Allocator: • Edge-to-edge Topology-Independent Capacity Allocation (ETICA). • Define for flow : • Define as congested, if . IEEE MMNS 2002

  19. Distributed-DCC (cont’d) • An example Capacity Allocator: (cont’d) • Allowed capacity for flow : • Intuition: If a group of flows are congested, then it is more probable that they are traversing the same bottleneck. • Assumes no knowledge about interior topology. IEEE MMNS 2002

  20. Simulation Experiments • We want to illustrate: • Steady-state properties of Distributed-DCC: queues, rate allocation • Distributed-DCC’s fairness properties • Performance of the capacity allocation in terms of adaptiveness. IEEE MMNS 2002

  21. Simulation Experiments (cont’d) IEEE MMNS 2002

  22. Simulation Experiments (cont’d) • Propagation delay is 5ms on each link • Packet size 1000B • Users generate UDP traffic • Interior nodes mark when their local queue exceeds 30 packets. • User with a budget b maximizes its surplus by sending at a rate b/p. • For each contracting period, users’ budgets are randomized with truncated-Normal. • Contracting 4s, observation 0.8s, LPS 0.16s. • k is 25, i.e. a flow stays in congested states for 25 LPS intervals, or one contract period. IEEE MMNS 2002

  23. Simulation Experiments (cont’d) • Single-bottleneck experiment: • 3 user flows • Flow budgets 30, 20, 10 respectively for flows 0, 1, 2. • Simulation time 15,000s. • Flows get active at every 5,000s. IEEE MMNS 2002
