  1. Foundation Outline Requirements Network Architecture Implementing Network Software

  2. Problem: Building a Network • How to build a network: • Requirements • Architecture • Key elements in the implementation

  3. Requirements Outline Statistical Multiplexing Inter-Process Communication Performance Metrics

  4. … Building Blocks • Nodes: PC, special-purpose hardware… • hosts • switches • Links: coax cable, optical fiber… • point-to-point • multiple access

  5. Switched Networks • A network can be defined recursively as... • two or more nodes connected by a link, or • two or more networks connected by two or more nodes

  6. Strategies • Circuit switching: carry bit streams • original telephone network • Packet switching: store-and-forward messages • Internet

  7. Addressing and Routing • Address: byte-string that identifies a node • usually unique • Routing: process of forwarding messages to the destination node based on its address • Types of addresses • unicast: node-specific • broadcast: all nodes on the network • multicast: some subset of nodes on the network

  8. L1 R1 L2 R2 Switch 1 Switch 2 L3 R3 Multiplexing • Use multiplexing to efficiently share a network • Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) • Frequency-Division Multiplexing (FDM)

  9. Statistical Multiplexing • On-demand time-division • Schedule link on a per-packet (limited-size block of data) basis • Packets from different sources interleaved on link • Buffer packets that are contending for the link • Buffer (queue) overflow is called congestion • FIFO or round-robin to make flow in a fair maner

  10. Statistical Multiplexing • A network that allow flows not to be delayed for more than certain length of time is said to support qualify of service (QoS). …

  11. Host Host Application Host Channel Application Host Host Inter-Process Communication • Turn host-to-host connectivity into process-to-process communication. • Fill gap between what applications expect and what the underlying technology provides. • Provide a logical channel.

  12. IPC Abstractions • Stream-Based • video: sequence of frames • 1/4 NTSC = 352x240 pixels • (352 x 240 x 24)/8=247.5KB • 30 fps = 7500KBps = 60Mbps • video applications • on-demand video • video conferencing • Request/Reply • distributed file systems • digital libraries (web)

  13. What Goes Wrong in the Network? • Bit-level errors (electrical interference) • Packet-level errors (congestion) • Link and node failures • Messages are delayed • Messages are deliver out-of-order • Third parties eavesdrop

  14. Performance Metrics • Bandwidth (throughput) • data transmitted per time unit • link versus end-to-end • notation • KB = 210 bytes • Mbps = 106 bits per second • Latency (delay) • time to send message from point A to point B • one-way versus round-trip time (RTT) • components Latency = Propagation + Transmit + Queue Propagation = Distance / SpeedOfLight Transmit = Size / Bandwidth

  15. Bandwidth versus Latency • Relative importance • 1-byte: 1ms vs. 100ms dominates 1Mbps vs. 100Mbps • 25MB: 1Mbps vs. 100Mbps dominates 1ms vs. 100ms • Infinite bandwidth • RTT dominates • Throughput = TransferSize / TransferTime • TransferTime = RTT + 1/Bandwidth x TransferSize • 1-MB file to 1-Gbps link as 1-KB packet to 1-Mbps link

  16. Delay x Bandwidth Product • Amount of data “in flight” or “in the pipe” • Example: 100ms x 45Mbps = 560KB

  17. OSI vs. Internet Architecture • Countless debates on the technical advantages of the ISO protocols versus the Internet protocols are no longer relevant. • ISO protocols are largely ignored. • An implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite was bundled with the Unix operating system. • The ISO/ITU culture has always been to specify first and implement later. • In 1988, the NIST approved a mandate that required government agencies to procure equipment that could run the ISO protocols. • In reality, computers were shipped with ISO-compliant code, but people kept using TCP/IP. This mandate was rescinded in September 1994.

  18. Network Architecture • A computer network must provide general, cost-effective, fair, robust, and high-performance connectivity among a large number of computers. • To deal with the complexity, designers developed a network architecture. • OSI and Internet architecture are two widely referenced architectures.

  19. Layering • Use abstractions to hide complexity • Abstraction naturally lead to layering • Alternative abstractions at each layer Application programs Request/reply Message stream channel channel Host-to-host connectivity Hardware

  20. Protocols • Building blocks of a network architecture • Each protocol object has two different interfaces • service interface: operations on this protocol • peer-to-peer interface: messages exchanged with peer • Term “protocol” is overloaded • specification of peer-to-peer interface • module that implements this interface

  21. Interfaces Host1 Host2 Service High-level High-level interface object object Protocol Protocol Peer-to-peer interface

  22. Protocol Machinery • Protocol Graph • most peer-to-peer communication is indirect • peer-to-peer is direct only at hardware level Host 2 Host 1 Digital Digital Video Video File File library library application application application application application application RRP MSP RRP MSP HHP HHP

  23. Machinery (cont) • Multiplexing and Demultiplexing (demux key) • Encapsulation (header/body) Host 1 Host 2 Application Application program program Data Data RRP RRP RRP Data RRP Data HHP HHP HHP RRP Data

  26. OSI vs. Internet Architecture • Countless debates on the technical advantages of the ISO protocols versus the Internet protocols are no longer relevant. • ISO protocols are largely ignored. • An implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite was bundled with the Unix operating system. • The ISO/ITU culture has always been to specify first and implement later. • In 1988, the NIST approved a mandate that required government agencies to procure equipment that could run the ISO protocols. • In reality, computers were shipped with ISO-compliant code, but people kept using TCP/IP. This mandate was rescinded in September 1994.

  27. Open Issue – Ubiquitous Networking • Networking has become a big business. Three major players are: • Computing industry • Telephone carriers • TV industry • A ubiquitous networking is to bring the network into every household.
