摘要
En 中文
In this paper, we propose software-defined protocol (SDP) technique to facilitate flexible service-oriented protocol stack deployment for providing high-throughput, low-latency and elastic mobile services based on platform virtualization and functionality modularization. We first elaborate the principle of SDP and then address one of the most important issues in SDP, namely SDP request mapping (SDPM), where an SDP request is fulfilled by mapping a set of required SDP function blocks and virtual links onto underlying SDP servers. We formulate the SDPM problem as a mixed integer programming (MIP). To address the NP-hardness and scalability of SDPM problem, we propose a decomposition algorithm which breaks down the SDPM problem into inter-block link and block mapping problems to accomplish the upper bound (UB) and lower bound (LB) of the MIP solution, respectively. The optimality can be achieved when the UB and the LB converges by using iterations. We employ LTE Layer-2 data-plane processing as a benchmark for validating the effectiveness of the SDP technique and evaluate the performance of SDPM algorithm. Numerical results show that SDP is effective to provide elastic low-latency mobile services and the proposed SDPM algorithm significantly outperforms the benchmark in stack processing delay, mapping cost, and resource utilization.
