Publication Open Access Ingress traffic classification versus aggregation in video over OBS networks(2010) Izal Azcárate, Mikel; Espina Antolín, Félix; Morató Osés, Daniel; Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta KonputazioaOptical Burst Switched (OBS) networks may become a backbone technology for video-on-demand providers. This work addresses the problem of dimensioning the access link of an ingress node to the optical core network in a video over OBS scenario. A video-ondemand provider using an OBS transport network will have to deliver traffic to a set of egress destinations. A large part of this traffic would be composed of video streaming traffic. However, in a real network there would be also a fraction of non video traffic related to non video services. This work studies the decision whether it is better to gather all traffic to the same destination in a joint burst assembler or separate video and general data traffic on different burs assemblers. The later may increase burst blocking probability but also allow for better tuning of OBS parameters that help improve video reception quality. Result show that this tuning of parameters is not enough to compensate the drop probability increase and thus it is better to aggregate video and general data traffic.Publication Open Access A proposal of burst cloning for video quality improvement in optical burst switching networks(2013) Espina Antolín, Félix; Morató Osés, Daniel; Izal Azcárate, Mikel; Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta KonputazioaPublication Open Access TNS research in progress(Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena, Servicio de Documentación, 2012) Izal Azcárate, Mikel; Prieto Suárez, Iria; Espina Antolín, Félix; Morató Osés, Daniel; Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThis paper summarizes latest works of Telematic, Networks and Services research group (TNS) of Public University of Navarra in the topics of FIERRO thematic network. Last two papers sent to major conferences are addressed First work shows how self-similar traffic can be generated using Perlin Noise, an algorithm commonly used to generate 2D/3D noise for natural looking graphics. 1-dimension Perlin Noise can be interpreted as network traffic and used to generate long range dependent traffic for network simulation. The algorithm is compared to more classical approach Random Midpoint Displacement showing at traffic generated is similar but can be generated continuously with no fixed block size. Second work presents two novel cloning schemes for video delivery in OBS networks that dramatically improve user perceived content quality. These schemes take into account the special characteristics of compressed video traffic. Analytical and simulation results show up to 40% QoE improvement without a substantial increase in the overall network traffic and without increasing the number of bursts in the network. The results show the strong dependency of this novel cloning scheme on the video traffic structure due to the coding mechanisms.Publication Open Access Evaluation of preemption probabilities in OBS networks with burst segmentation(IEEE, 2005) Magaña Lizarrondo, Eduardo; Morató Osés, Daniel; Izal Azcárate, Mikel; Aracil Rico, Javier; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta KonputazioaPreemption techniques have been recently proposed for service differentiation in Optical Burst Switching (OBS) networks. According to [1], an incoming burst with the same priority that the burst in service will preempt the wavelength if the residual length of the burst in service is smaller than the incoming burst transmission time. For a network scenario with no wavelength conversion, the preemption probability is evaluated assuming Exponential, Gaussian and Pareto-distributed burst sizes. Knowledge of the preemption dynamics at an OBS switch is a fundamental issue in performance evaluation, since the downstream switches will surely be affected. An analytical upper bound is provided, that shows that the preemption probability depends on the burst size distribution, which in turn depends on the burst assembly technique used at the network edges. On the other hand, not only truncated bursts result from preemption, as reported in other studies, but also the burst size distribution for preempting bursts is shifted to larger values.
