Development of Algorithm for Calculating Data Packet Transmission Delay in Software-Defined Networks

Abstract

The relevance of this type of network is associated with the development and improvement of protocols, methods, and tools to verify routing policies and algorithmic models describing various aspects of SDN, which determined the purpose of this study. The main purpose of this work is to develop specialized methods to estimate the maximum end-to-end delay during packet transmission using SDN infrastructure. The methods of network calculus theory are used to build a model for estimating the maximum transmission delay of a data packet. The basis for this theory is obtaining deterministic evaluations by analyzing the best and worst-case scenarios for individual parts of the network and then optimally combining the best ones. It was found that the developed method of theoretical evaluation demonstrates high accuracy. Consequently, it is shown that the developed algorithm can estimate SND performance. It is possible to conclude the configuration optimality of elements in the network by comparing the different possible configurations. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm for calculating the upper estimate for packet transmission delay can reduce network maintenance costs by detecting inconsistencies between network equipment settings and requirements. The scientific novelty of these results is that it became possible to calculate the achievable upper data delay in polynomial time even in the case of arbitrary tree topologies, but not only when the network handlers are located in tandem.

Developing the Concept of Methodological Support for Designing and Assessing the Efficiency of Information Protection Systems of Standard Information Systems Considering Their Vulnerabilities

“…Public and commercial companies must protect data, which is, along with material resources, one of their most valuable resources (Párizs et al, 2022). To protect data, companies use special IPS, a combination of various software, technical, and hardware tools and approaches to ensure the safety of information processed within the IS (Kuklin et al, 2023;Alexandrov et al, 2022). The main problem in IPS development is that all existing IPS have vulnerabilities that make it possible to bypass protections and gain unauthorized access to data.…”

Model Development of Universal Hardware and Software Module for Medical Information System

“…Currently, new approaches are being implemented using Software-Defined Networks, but our work proposes an alternative solution designed to work conservatively with existing equipment using established protocols. New solutions involve the specialized equipment application for receiving, sending, and storing the sensitive data received [12,13]. Integrated MIS is needed to adequately address these challenges [14].…”

Analysis of the Prospects for Developing Storage and Processing Complexes for Multiformat Media Data

“…-Calculate the status of the service provided to subscribers -Inform the operator in real-time about abnormal situations at the monitoring object Such complexes can provide the automation of the business process of monitoring the quality-of-service delivery (Almiani et al, 2022), improving the quality of operation services and signal delivery servicesreducing the time-of-service unavailability and ensuring a proactive response to a potential emergency or quality degradation before the immediate impact on the quality of services and end users (Sahu et al, 2021). Also, they can increase the labor productivity of operating service personnel in service maintenance (Soni and Kumar, 2022), optimize the topology, and reduce the transmission delay in specialized networks (Alexandrov et al, 2022).…”
