  1. QoS agreements in Ambient Networks and Daidalos Carlos Pinho and Filipe Sousa INESC Porto 3rd RTCM Seminar February 17, 2006 Lisbon

  2. Overview • Goals of Ambient Networks and Daidalos (Daidalos) • Daidalos QoS architecture • CMS and A4C interaction • Explicit session request • Mobility of Users (WWI Ambient Networks) • The Ambient Control Space • INQA • QoS advertisement and dynamic negotiation • Mobility of ANs • Conclusion

  3. Projects goals The Ambient Network strategic project goals are to: • Define an easy to use, affordable and scalable mobile communications network, creating new business opportunities for mobile network service provisioning • Facilitate "ambient networking", allowing increased competition and cooperation, enabling efficient use of resources in an environment populated by a multitude of devices, technologies and business actors The overall Daidalos objectives are to: • Design, prototype and validate the necessary infrastructure and components for efficient distribution of services over diverse network technologies beyond 3G • Integrate complementary network technologies to provide pervasive and user-centered access to these services • Develop an optimized signaling system for communication and management support in these networks • Demonstrate the results of the work through strong focus on user-centered and scenario-based development of technology

  4. Ambient Control Space AN • The ACS is the heart of Ambient Networks • Contains a set of modular control functions making up an Ambient Network • It is designed to work independently of any underlying connectivity technologies • Applications interact with the control functions through the Ambient Service Interface (ASI) • Control functions of one AN interact with peer control functions through the Ambient Network Interface (ANI) • ACS functions of one AN interact with functions at the network level through the Ambient Resource Interface (ARI)

  5. INQA • QoS – GSLP: processing of QoS signaling messages • Advertisement Module: takes care of SLS advertisements • Admission Control: evaluation of available resources to accept SLSs • Monitoring: Intra and Inter AN monitoring • Negotiation Module: SLS negotiation/ renegotiation • Aggregation: monitors established SLS to aggregate them

  6. QoS advertisement and dynamic negotiation SLS-Sub 1 SLS-Sub a SLS-T1 SLS-Ta SLS-A1 SLS-Aa

  7. Mobility of ANs

  8. Daidalos QoS Architecture • MT may incorporate a QoS client able to request QoS resources (and/or QoS services) to the network in an implicit or explicit way • AR contains a set of advanced functions • Service Provision Platform (SPP) in the core network supportsadvanced services • QoS Broker performs admission control and manages network resources • MultiMedia Service Proxy (MMSP) controls the multimedia sessions. • Policy Based Network Management System (PBNMS) provides the QoS definitions • Real time network monitoring system: (1) Network Monitoring Entities (NME) (2) Central Monitoring System (CMS)

  9. Aggregates • Calculates metrics CMS and A4C interaction • PBNMS Configures a measurement task in CMS for SLA conformance checking • CMS adds the task in the NME’s, configuring also an export interval of 1 second • NME exports every second a report of the collected measurements • CMS collects the reports and calculates metrics required for SLA conformance checking (delay, jitter, packet loss) • CMS aggregates the measurements by user and class of service • CMS exports the information to the A4C (inside, the SLA violation detection component collects the information) • SLA violation detection checks for each user for a QoS violation using the SLS template stored in the SLA Manager

  10. Explicit QoS session request Explicit real-time QoS session set-up • Terminal issues QoS requests • Multimedia Service Platform Proxy issues QoS requests • Application server issues QoS requests • Terminal issues QoS requests through ARM

  12. Conclusions Daidalos solution: Ambient Networks solution: • SLSs are technology independent - can be mapped to several different QoS models • Daidalos follows a DiffServ/IntServ model and SLA intrinsically connect to these concepts • The adoption of active periods in SLSs avoids the need for e2e signaling • SLS is statically defined in the SLA Manager for each class of service (in Daidalos 4 different classes have been defined) • Enables the multiplexing of reservations over the same link • Daidalos only supports SLA conformance checking per user not per access network or even domain • Enables the dynamic and automatic creation, negotiation, establishment and removal of SLSs • The resources of an Access Network can be dynamically renegotiated depending on each user NVUP (Network Profile) • QoS advertising facilitates the establishment of SLSs - customer ANs know immediately the information about QoS resources available towards a set of destinations • The SLA conformance checking supports mobility by the adoption of Virtual identifier (Vid)
