Overlay routing has emerged as a promising approach to improve reliability and efficiency of the Internet. The key to overlay routing is the placement and maintenance of the overlay infrastructure, especially, the selection and placement of key relay nodes. Spurred by the observation that a few relay nodes with high betweenness centrality can provide more optimal routes for a large number of node pairs, we propose a resilient routing overlay network construction method by introducing Super-Relay nodes. In detail, we present the K-Minimum Spanning Tree with Super-Relay nodes algorithm (SR-KMST), in which we focus on the selection and connection of Super-Relay nodes to optimize the routing quality in a resilient and scalable manner. For the simultaneous path failures between the default physical path and the overlay backup path, we also address the selection of recovery path. The objective is to select a proper one-hop recovery path with minimum cost in path probing and measurement. Simulations based on a real ISP network and a synthetic Internet topology show that our approach can provide high-quality overlay routing service, while achieving good robustness.

Along with the development of network, more and more functions and services are required by users, while traditional network fails to support all of them. Although overlay is a good solution to some demands, using them in an efficient, scalable way is still a problem. This paper puts forward a framework on how to construct an efficient, scalable overlay mesh in real network. Main differences between other overlays and ours are that our overlay mesh processes some nice features including class-of-service(CoS) and traffic engineering(TE). It embeds the end-to-end optimal traffic control law which can distribute traffic in an optimal way. Then, an example is given for better understanding the framework. Particularly, besides good scalability, and failure recovery, it possesses other characteristics such as routing simplicity, self-organization, etc. In such an overlay mesh, an applicable source routing scheme called hierarchical source routing is used to transmit data packet based on UDP protocol. Finally, a guideline derived from a number of simulations is proposed on how to set various parameters in this overlay mesh, which makes the overlay more efficient.

Overlay routing has emerged as a promising approach to improve reliability and efficiency of the Internet. For one-hop overlay source routing, when a given primary path suffers from the link failure or performance degradation, the source can reroute the traffic to the destination via a strategically placed relay node. However, the over-heavy traffic passing through the same relay node may cause frequent package loss and delay jitter, which can degrade the throughput and utilization of the network. To overcome this problem, we propose a Load-Balanced One-hop Overlay Multipath Routing algorithm (LB-OOMR), in which the traffic is first split at the source edge nodes and then transmitted along multiple one-hop overlay paths. In order to determine an optimal split ratio for the traffic, we formulate the problem as a linear programming (LP) formulation, whose goal is to minimize the worse-case network congestion ratio. Since it is difficult to solve this LP problem in practical time, a heuristic algorithm is introduced to select the relay nodes for constructing the disjoint one-hop overlay paths, which greatly reduces the computational complexity of the LP algorithm. Simulations based on a real ISP network and a synthetic Internet topology show that our proposed algorithm can reduce the network congestion ratio dramatically, and achieve high-quality overlay routing service.

Many distributed applications build overlays on top of the Internet. Several unsolved issues at the network layer can explain this trend to implement network services such as multicast, mobility, and security at the application layer. On one hand, overlays creating basic topologies are usually limited in flexibility and scalability. On the other hand, overlays creating complex topologies require some form of application level addressing, routing, and naming mechanisms. Our aim is to design an efficient and robust addressing, routing, and naming infrastructure for these complex overlays. Our only assumption is that they are deployed over the Internet topology. Applications that use our middleware will be relieved from managing their own overlay topologies. Our infrastructure is based on the separation of the naming and the addressing planes and provides a convergence plane for the current heterogeneous Internet environment. To implement this property, we have designed a scalable distributed k-resilient name to address binding system. This paper describes the design of our overlay infrastructure and presents performance results concerning its routing scalability, its path inflation efficiency and its resilience to network dynamics.

A multitude of overlay network designs for resilient routing, multicasting, quality of service, content distribution, storage, and object location have been proposed. Overlay networks offer several attractive features, including ease of deployment, flexibility, adaptivity, and an infrastructure for collaboration among hosts. In this paper, we explore cooperation among co-existing, possibly heterogeneous, overlay networks. We discuss a spectrum of cooperative forwarding and information sharing services, and investigate the associated scalability, heterogeneity, and security problems. Motivated by these services, we design Synergy, a utility-based overlay internetworking architecture that fosters overlay cooperation. Our architecture promotes fair peering relationships to achieve synergism. Results from Internet experiments with cooperative forwarding overlays indicate that our Synergy prototype improves delay, throughput, and loss performance, while maintaining the autonomy and heterogeneity of individual overlay networks.

To prevent structured peer to peer (P2P) overlay networksfrom being attacked by malicious nodes, a symmetric lookup-based routing algorithm referred to as Symmetric-Chord is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm determines the precision of routing lookup by constructing multiple paths to the destination. The selective routing algorithm is used to acquire information on the neighbors of the root. Authenticity of the root is validated via consistency shown between the information ascertained from the neighbors and information from the yet-to-be-verified root, resulting in greater efficiency of resource lookup. Simulation results demonstrate that Symmetric-Chordhas the capability of detecting malicious nodes both accurately and efficiently, so as to identify which root holds the correct key, and provides an effective approach to the routing security for the P2P overlay network.

최근 산업 및 연구 단체에서 이동 애드혹 망에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 지금까지의 연구들은 하위 계층에 초점을 맞추고 있었던 것에 반해, 본 논문에서는 이틀 연구의 결과로 형성된 이동 애드혹망을 실제로 이용하기 위한 응용의 하나로 효율적인 서비스 검색 방법을 제시한다. 통신 오버헤드 측면에서 서비스 검색을 효율적으로 하기 위하여 피어 투 피어(P2P) 오버레이 네트위크에서 사용되는 분산 해쉬 테이블 시스템을 이용한다. 그러나 오버레이 네트워크는 물리적 네트워크 토폴로지와 독립적이기 때문에 기존의 유선망에서 사용되던 토폴로지 기반 메커니즘들은 노드들의 이동이 잦아 물리적 토폴로지가 수시로 바뀌는 이동 애드혹 망에 부적합하다. 본 논문에서는 오버레이 네트워크에서 라우팅의 비효율성을 극복하기 위한 근접성 기반 오버레이 네트워크 라우팅 기법을 제안한다. 근접성 기반 오버레이 네트워크 라우팅 기법에서, 각 노드는 1홉 브로드캐스팅을 통해 물리적으로 가까운 노드의 정보를 모으고, 이론 이용하여 논리적으로 목적지에 가까운 노드론 선택하여 메시지를 전송한다. 이러한 방식으로 메시지를 전송할 경우, 분산 해쉬 테이블 시스템과 같이 낮은 오버헤드를 유지하면서 플러딩 기반 기법과 비슷한 정도로 물리적인 홉 수를 줄일 수 있고, 노드들의 이동성이 있는 환경에서도 좋은 성능을 나타낸다는 것을 ns-2 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인할 수 있다.

This paper presents an efficient overlay multicast routing protocol (ROMP) and its architecture. ROMP using GPS and region map stands on the basis of scalable 2-tiered multicast architecture and maintains a global overlay multicast tree through reactive fashion. With this approach, the coarse-grain location-awareness for an efficient overlay multicasting and the determination of hot-spot area for efficient data delivery are feasible. The simulation results show that the localized control packets of ROMP prevent the overlay control packets from squandering the physical network resources.

최근 CAN, Chord, Pastry와 Tapestry 등과 같이 안전한 분산 시스템기반의 P2P (Peer to Peer) 오버레이 네트워크가 일반화되고 있다. 이러한 시스템은 효율적이고 결함에 허용적인 라우팅과 개체의 위치추정 및 스스로 초기화시킬 수 있는 오버레이 네트워크가 갖는 로드 밸런싱을 제공한다. CDN (Contents Delivery Network)온 네트워크 하부구조의 중간 단계로서 궁극적으로 CP(Contents Provider)가 고객에게 전달하고자하는 멀터미디어 데이터를 포함한 컨텐츠의 효율적인 전송을 돕는다. 본 논문에서는 CDN에 적합한 토폴로지-인식 P2P 오버레이 네트워크를 새롭게 제안하였다. 제안된 기법인 Rosary에서 CDN 서버는 구조화된 오버레이 네트워크상에서 두 단계의 Inter-pastry와 Intra-pastry 라우팅을 수행한다. Rosary는 기존의 Pastry 기법을 CDN 환경에 맞도록 적응적으로 수정, 보완 및 추가하였으며 언급한 Intra-pastry 방식과 동적인 랜드마크 토폴로지 기법에 기반을 둔 세미-해싱방법을 제공하고 토폴로지-인식 오버레이 네트워크의 구성과 운용에 이용되었다. NS-2를 이용한 시뮬레이션에서 Rosary 기법은 네트워크 구성 후 안정화 된 컨텐츠 전송에서 보다 전송실패가 적고 효율적이며 견고한 것으로 증명되었다.

In traditional unstructured P2P file sharing network, each peer establishes connections with a certain number of randomly chosen other peers. This would lead to redundant traffic and P2P network partition in mobile ad hoc network (MANET). We propose an approach to construct an efficient unstructured P2P overlay over MANET using underlying cluster-based routing (CBRP). One of the peers in the P2P network is used as a root-peer to connect all peers. Each peer maintains connection with physically closer peers such that it can reach the root-peer. The peer constructs a minimum-spanning tree consisting of itself, its directly connected neighbor peers and 2-hop away neighbor peers to remove far away redundant links and to build an overlay closer to the physical network. Due to on-demand nature of inter-cluster routing of CBRP, the positioning algorithm for MANET is used to retrieve the file by a peer from the source peer via shorter path in the physical network. We can show by simulation that our approach performs better in comparison with the existing approach.
