  3. EU’s FP6 & Ambient and Cognitive Networks • EU’s FP6 (6th Framework Program) • 유럽연합의 6차 연구개발 프로그램 (2002~2006) • Goal & Vision • 유럽단일연구공간(ERA: European Research Area)의 실현 • 7개 중점 연구 분야와 IST, WWI, Ambient Networks의 관계 XXX [IST내의통합 관리 프로젝트] yyy … WWI (Wireless World Initiative, 2004~)

  4. Overview of Ambient Networks • Ambient Networks (AN) • A software-driven dynamic network integration solution over any access technology and any type of network • Phase I (2004-2005) • Fundamental concepts & the overall architecture of ANs • Phase II (2006-2007) • The engineering of the overall solution • Develop real prototypes • Overall Review • Fatna Belqasmi, Roch H. Glitho, and Rachida Dssouli, “Ambient Network Composition,” IEEE Network, Vol. 22, No. 4, pp. 6-12, July/August 2008. [Ambient] : existing or present on all sides : of the surrounding area or environment

  5. Overview of Ambient Networks • Four innovations (design paradigm) of AN Network Composition Enhanced Mobility Network Heterogeneity Support + Context Awareness To provide common control functions to a wide range of different applications and air interface technologies

  6. Technology of Ambient Networks • Ambient Control Space (ACS) • Ambient Network Interface (ANI) • : Standardized single interface to connect the network instead of just connection of nodes • : Offer a simple plug & play connection • Ambient Service Interfaces (ASI) • : Even in a composed Ambient Network, only a single homogeneous control space is visible to external entities • : An application or service will always find the same environment

  7. Technology of Ambient Networks • Network Composition (1/2) • Network Integration • Involved networks merge intoone common network • E.g. a new PAN creation integrating two different PANs • Control Delegation • One AN delegates certain control functions to the other AN • E.g. 3GPP-WLAN interworking:WLAN delegates authentication, authorization and charging to 3GPP network • Network Interworking • Cooperation but no control delegation • E.g. dynamic roaming agreements Increasing control plane interworking

  9. Technology of Ambient Networks • Generic Link layer (GLL) for a Multi-Radio Access • Generic Link Interface (GLI) • : It provides compatible radio link layers for different radio access technologies • : A reconfiguration of the GLL (generic link layer) due to a change of radio access technology will be seamless

  16. Motivation • Three motivating problems for Cognitive Networks • Complex • Large numbers of highly interconnected, interacting elements and instances of self-organization and emergent behavior • Network need to be able to deal with and adapt to complex environment with minimal or zero user interaction A school of fish A termite mound

  17. Motivation • Three motivating problems for Cognitive Networks • Wireless and Its heterogeneity • Large numbers of standards • IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, WiMAX, CDMA2000, UMTS… • Ad-hoc networks are highly dynamic • should be capable of self-organization • In research papers, simulation is usually used because of the difficulty in using forms of analysis • Difficulty in QoS of Layered Architecture • People wants a sort of end-to-end guarantees • It is a very difficult research area because most all networking stacks do not operate on an end-to-end paradigm. • Current approaches are typically reactive.

  18. Definition • Cognitive Network (CN) • A network composed of elements that, through learning and reasoning, dynamically adapt to varying network conditions in order to optimize end-to-end performance • Features • Decisions are made to meet the requirements of the network as a whole (not individual network components) • A Cognitive Process • perceive conditions, plan, decide, and act on those conditions [by Ryan Thomas @ Virginia Tech., 2005] Global Internet Map(www.siencedaily.com)

  19. Cognitive Network vs. Cross-layering • Similarities • Operates in parallel to stack • Increases information available to participating layers • Optimizes on goals that require multiple layers to achieve • Differences • Cognition (as opposed to reactive, localized schemes) • Multiple and End-to-end goals (as opposed to single goal at layer level) [by Ryan Thomas @ Virginia Tech.]

  20. Cognition Process • Basic Decision Model • OODA Loop [John Boyd] • Decision based on observation ofnetwork environments • Implementation • It depends on • Goals, Controllable Network Elements, System Structure, States • Critical Design Issues • Behavior: Selfish vs. Cooperation • Computational: Level of ignorance • Physical: Amount of control 분석 및 계획 [by Ryan Thomas @ Virginia Tech.]

  21. Cognitive Network Framework • Inputfrom Requirements Layer • End-to-End Goals • Cognitive Specification Language • Converts end-to-end goals into cognitive elements goals • Cognitive Elements • Adapt and learns to make decisionsthat meet end-to-end goals • Software Adaptable Network (SAN) • API • Configurable Elements • Points of network control for cognitive process • Network Status Sensors • Reads status of the network [by Ryan Thomas @ Virginia Tech.]
