We address the problem of content replication in large distributed content delivery networks, composed of a data center assisted by many small servers with limited capabilities and located at the edge of the network. The objective is to optimize the placement of contents on the servers to offload as much as possible the data center. We model the system constituted by the small servers as a loss network, each loss corresponding to a request to the data center. Based on large system / storage behavior, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the optimal replication of contents and propose adaptive schemes related to those encountered in cache networks but reacting here to loss events, and faster algorithms generating virtual events at higher rate while keeping the same target replication. We show through simulations that our adaptive schemes outperform significantly standard replication strategies both in terms of loss rates and adaptation speed.

Blockchain is a merging technology for decentralized management and data security, which was first introduced as the core technology of cryptocurrency, e.g., Bitcoin. Since the first success in financial sector, blockchain has shown great potentials in various domains, e.g., internet of things and mobile networks. In this paper, we propose a novel blockchain-based architecture for content delivery networks (B-CDN), which exploits the advances of the blockchain technology to provide a decentralized and secure platform to connect content providers (CPs) with users. On one hand, the proposed B-CDN will leverage the registration and subscription of the users to different CPs, while guaranteeing the user privacy thanks to virtual identity provided by the blockchain network. On the other hand, the B-CDN creates a public immutable database of the requested contents (from all CPs), based on which each CP can better evaluate the user preference on its contents. The benefits of B-CDN are demonstrated via an edge-caching application, in which a feature-based caching algorithm is proposed for all CPs. The proposed caching algorithm is verified with the realistic Movielens dataset. A win-win relation between the CPs and users is observed, where the B-CDN improves user quality of experience and reduces cost of delivering content for the CPs.
Online Social Networks (OSN) are among the most popular applications in todays Internet. Decentralized online social networks (DOSNs), a special class of OSNs, promise better privacy and autonomy than traditional centralized OSNs. However, ensuring a vailability of content when the content owner is not online remains a major challenge. In this paper, we rely on the structure of the social graphs underlying DOSN for replication. In particular, we propose that friends, who are anyhow interested in the content, are used to replicate the users content. We study the availability of such natural replication schemes via both theoretical analysis as well as simulations based on data from OSN users. We find that the availability of the content increases drastically when compared to the online time of the user, e. g., by a factor of more than 2 for 90% of the users. Thus, with these simple schemes we provide a baseline for any more complicated content replication scheme.
Geo-distributed private chain and database have created higher performance requirements for consistency models. However, with millisecond network latency between nodes, the widely used leader-based SMR models cause frequent retransmission of logs sin ce they cannot know the logs replication status in time, which resulting in the leader costing high network and computing resource. To address the problem, we proposed a Leader Confirmation based Replication (LCR) model. First, we demonstrate the efficacy of the approach by designing the Future-Log Replication model, which the followers are responsible for non-transactional log replication. It reduces the leaders network load using the signal log. Secondly, we designed a Generation Re-replication strategy, which can ensure the security and consistency of future-logs when the number of nodes changes. Finally, we implemented LCR-Raft and designed experiments. The results show that in the single-ms network latency environments, LCR-Raft can provide 1.5X higher TPS, reduces transactional data response time 40%-60%, and network traffic by 20%-30% with acceptable network traffic and CPU cost on followers. Besides, LCR can provide high portability since it does not change the number of leader and election process.
With the increasing interest in connected vehicles, it is useful to evaluate the capability of delivering large content over a WiFi infrastructure to vehicles. The throughput achieved over WiFi channels can be highly variable and also rapidly degrade s as the distance from the access point increases. While this behavior is well understood at the data link layer, the interactions across the various protocol layers (data link and up through the transport layer) and the effect of mobility may reduce the amount of content transferred to the vehicle, as it travels along the roadway. This paper examines the throughput achieved at the TCP layer over a carefully designed outdoor WiFi environment and the interactions across the layers that impact the performance achieved, as a function of the receiver mobility. The experimental studies conducted reveal that impairments over the WiFi link (frame loss, ARQ and increased delay) and the residual loss seen by TCP causes a cascade of duplicate ACKs to be generated. This triggers large congestion window reductions at the sender, leading to a drastic degradation of throughput to the vehicular client. To ensure outdoor WiFi infrastructures have the potential to sustain reasonable downlink throughput for drive-by vehicles, we speculate that there is a need to adapt how WiFi and TCP (as well as mobility protocols) function for such vehicular applications.
The proliferation of Content Delivery Networks (CDN) reveals that existing content networks are owned and operated by individual companies. As a consequence, closed delivery networks are evolved which do not cooperate with other CDNs and in practice, islands of CDNs are formed. Moreover, the logical separation between contents and services in this context results in two content networking domains. But present trends in content networks and content networking capabilities give rise to the interest in interconnecting content networks. Finding ways for distinct content networks to coordinate and cooperate with other content networks is necessary for better overall service. In addition to that, meeting the QoS requirements of users according to the negotiated Service Level Agreements between the user and the content network is a burning issue in this perspective. In this article, we present an open, scalable and Service-Oriented Architecture based system to assist the creation of open Content and Service Delivery Networks (CSDN) that scale and support sharing of resources with other CSDNs.
