Grand Challenge Network Problems
1. Network management and control in the presence of fast network dynamics
2. Reliable delivery with deadlines
Vincent W. S. ChanJoan and Irwin Jacobs Professor, EECS, MITSES DoD

Current network dynamics (slow)
• Applications:
• Network does not respond to per session dynamics
• Little time deadline services
• Network:
• Slow provisioning in backbone
• Static wireless infrastructure
Future network dynamics (fast)
• Applications:
• Resource allocation for per flow large transactions
• High granularity wireless transactions with deadline
• Network:
• Highly fluid wireless topologies
• Long reach lightpath transients in physical layer
Future network management and control challenges

Before: Quasi-static provisioning, localized sensing and restoration (e.g. SONET, G709)
Future: Fast transients, fluid topologies, per session resource allocations, …
Problems:
• Dynamics too fast and too many for full sensing
• Even with full network states, how to do resource allocation computations?
• How to collapse amount of network state sensed ∆, but retain reasonable efficiencies?
• Network management designs must be done with considerations of amount of state information sensed and optimized with performance metrics
• Reliability costs efficiency except at 1.
