  3. Multicast Overview • IP multicast (network level, routers) • Efficient • Faces deployment and marketing problems • Application layer multicast (end hosts) • Easy to deploy • Inefficient and difficult to scale to large groups • Multicast Service Overlay Network (MSON)(proxies) • Efficient and scale to large groups • Need careful overlay design • A Comparative Study of Multicast Protocols: Top, Bottom, or In the Middle? (Lao, et al. GI 2005) SPECTS 2005

  5. Our Goal • Investigate MSON provisioning • Where to place proxies • How to connect these proxies (overlay links) • How much bandwidth to be reserved on each overlay link • Examine effects of design algorithms • Performance of TOMA (as example) SPECTS 2005

  7. Roadmap • Motivation • Problem Formulation • Our Approach • Simulation Study • Conclusion SPECTS 2005

  8. Problem Formulation • Input: a network N = (V, E), multicast groups G with membership distribution and bandwidth requirement • Output: a virtual network N’ = (V’, E’) • V’ V, and E’ path(E) • Each e’is assigned bandwidth, e’E’ • Objective: minimize multicast overlay cost and average end-to-end delay SPECTS 2005

  9. Our Approach Divide and Conquer • Overlay proxy placement: determine V’ • Overlay link selection: determine E’ • Bandwidth dimensioning: determine bandwidth for e’E’ SPECTS 2005

  10. 1. Overlay Proxy Placement • Given: the number of members wi for each router i (1  in), and the shortest distance dij between every two routers i and j • Find: no more than K (1 K  n) routers as proxies • Objective: the weighted sum of distances from each router to its nearest proxy is minimized SPECTS 2005

  11. Solution • ILP Formulation • A lot of approaches to solve, but expensive • Greedy • In each step, a router i is selected if this reduces the weighted sum of distances by the largest amount • O(Kn2) SPECTS 2005

  13. Solutions • Complete Graph • Shortest path length • Highest tree cost • Largest number of overlay links: • Adjacent Connection • Shortest path length • Reduced tree cost • Reduced number of overlay links • Minimum Spanning Tree • Long path length • Minimum tree cost • Minimum number of overlay links: SPECTS 2005

  14. 3. Bandwidth Dimensioning • Given: an overlay network N’ = (V’, E’), a set of groups G with member distribution and bandwidth requirements, and a multicast routing algorithm • Compute the amount of bandwidth reserved on each overlay link e’ E’ SPECTS 2005

  15. Solution • Simulation-based approach • Compute the multicast trees • Sum up the traffic volume of these trees for each overlay link • Over-dimensioning SPECTS 2005

  16. Simulation Study • Abstracted AT&T backbone • 54 nodes, 9 proxies • Weight-based membership model • Rocketfuel 1755 • ~300 nodes, 20 proxies • Uniform membership distribution • Metrics • Multicast tree cost, path length, request rejection ratio SPECTS 2005

  22. Conclusions & On-going Work • Formulated the problem and divided it into three sub-problems • Proposed solutions to each sub-problem • Greedy algorithm very effective for overlay proxy placement • MST and Adjacent Connection perform better than Complete Graph • Over-dimensioning is needed for bandwidth dimensioning to reduce join request rejection ratio • On-going work: • Overlay link selection: trade-off of overlay cost and delay • Probe a comprehensive optimal approach SPECTS 2005
