Title:A Study of TCP over SCTP Parallel Networking and Parallel Route Selection Approach for Mass Data Transfer Applications
Abstruct:Parallel transmission is one of the popular technique for realizing huge bandwidth.
However, in parallel transmission, many frame order inversions will be occured when the delay difference among the routes is large, and TCP throughput will be decrease drastically.
In this paper, a TCP over SCTP (Stream Contral Transmission Protocol) parallel trannsmission system is proposed.
To achieve the end-to-end communication, TCP is used. To defeat the frame inversion, SCTP is used.
Each TCP packet is encapsulated into SCTP packet at Gateways which are located between parallel transmission section implemented on the software switch to evaluate parallel transmission by using the grid application.
A parallel route selection algorithm is also proposed and evaluated delay difference characteristics.

title:Newly Structured Router Network Architecture using Cloud Control Plane and
Forwarding Plane
authors:Sho Shimizu Shan Gao Daisuke Ishii Naoaki Yamanaka
abstract:This paper proposes a novel network architecture called cloud control
plane (Cloud C-plane) to reduce the power consumption of networks. In
Cloud C-plane, the forwarding functions and control functions are
decoupled, and the control functions are placed in the cloud. In
addition, physical network topology is modified to improve the energy
efficiency when the load of traffic changes. The routing engine on a
dynamically reconfigurable processor (DRP) is a key component of Cloud
C-plane. We implement the prototype of the routing engine on an actual
DRP, and the experimental results show the execution time of the
prototype is 19 times faster in the shortest path calculation.
