However, virtual switching is confronted with great performance challenges regarding packet classification especially in Open Flow-based software defined networks. This paper first takes an insight into packet classification in virtual Open Flow switching, and points out that its performance bottleneck is dominated by flow table traversals of multiple failed mask probing for each arrived packet. Then we are motivated to propose an efficient packet classification algorithm based on counting bloom filters. In particular, counting bloom filters are applied to predict the failures of flow table lookups with great possibilities, and bypass flow table traversals for failed mask probing. Finally, our proposed packet classification algorithm is evaluated with real network traffic traces by experiments. The experimental results indicate that our proposed algorithm outperforms the classical one in Open v Switch in terms of average search length, and contributes to promote virtual Open Flow switching performance.展开更多

By using these strategies the inverter can realize secondary frequency regulation and voltage regulation. If the phase is near 0 or 2π a little disturbance may made the PLL output a big error, so a new PLL is proposed by this paper. A sine module is added in the PLL to avoid this error. In order to verify the strategy proposed by this paper a simulation model is built in Matlab/Simulink. The simulation results show that the control strategy can realize seamless switching.展开更多

The demand for security in data networks has been increasing owing to the high cyber attacks and potential risks associated with networks spread over distant geographical locations. The MPLS networks ride on the public network backbone that is porous and highly susceptible to attacks and so the need for reliable security mechanisms to be part of the deployment plan. The evaluation criteria concentrated on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and Video conferencing with keen interest in jitter, end to end delivery and general data flow. This study used both structured questionnaire and observation methods. The structured questionnaire was administered to a group of 70 VPN users in a company. This provided the study with precise responses. The observation method was used in data simulations using OPNET Version 14.5 Simulation software. The results show that the IPSec features increase the size of data packets by approximately 9.98% translating into approximately 90.02% effectiveness. The tests showed that the performance metrics are all well within the recommended standards. The IPSec Based MPLS Virtual private network is more stable and secure than one without IPSec.展开更多

This method can avoid maintaining the connectivities between backbone hosts. Considering that the hosts in mobile networks have different characteristics, this paper proposes a method of calculating minimal dominating set with weight. The nodes can be chosen to form a minimal dominating set when the network topology changes. For the host switch on/off operation, the updating algorithm was provided. The change in the status of a hostaffects only the status of hosts in the restricted vicinity. Simulation results show that the proposed method can ensure fewer dominators but with higher weight to form the minimal dominating set and the nodes can be adaptive to the changes of network topology.展开更多
