“…IPv6 multihoming can be performed at any layer ranging from the network to the application layer, by assigning multiple provider-dependent aggregatable IPv6 prefixes to each site [15]. In general, striping at lower layers leads to a high striping point utilization, and striping at higher layers leads to less head-of-line blocking [7], i.e., a situation where a multihomed connection throughput is limited by that of its slowest path. To justify the case for session layer striping, we describe the advantages and drawbacks of striping at different layers.…”

Abstract-Striping is a resource aggregation technique that can improve application performance for a multihomed host by utilizing multiple interfaces. In this position paper, we argue in favor of decoupling striping primitives from all of the traditional layers of the networking protocol stack, and instead resurrecting the session layer for striping. Session layer striping indeed allows applications to take advantage of multihoming, while avoiding most of the deployability issues traditionally linked with modifiying application layer code. We illustrate our argument with a strawman architecture for a session layer striping protocol, and sketch how such a protocol could be implemented.

“…Striping data across multiple, parallel communication channels is a conventional communications technique used to improve system perfonnance or reliability in varied but relatively static settings [3,16]. But due to end-device heterogeneity, mobility, and time-varying link transrnission characteristics, an aggregated wireless channel is highly dynarnic, and the challenge is to assemble, adrninister, and monitor its operation in a decentralized fashion.…”

Abstract. Aggregating low-speed WAN links into a higher-speed logical link promises to improve data-transfer rates to collaborating communities of wireless mobile multi-homed devices. Such bandwidth aggregation systems must adapt to link dynamics as the number oflinks and the channel conditions vary with time due to mobility, power dissipation, and channel interference. A monitoring architecture that accurately measures the link dynamics and promptly feeds this information to the system is vital to realize significant bandwidth aggregation performance gains. We present various architectural design alternatives for such a monitaring system, and evaluate them using simulation. We show that a properly-designed monitoring system can accurately measure and quickly respond to changes in communication link performance while minimizing the control overhead.

“…For example, researchers [26,27,38] presented mechanisms to bundle multiple, highly predictable, wired ATM links to construct a high bandwidth link. In contrast, in Multifacet, the WiFi links have significant variability and unpredictable changes in channel conditions and our solution is stylized to the various properties of two hop wireless networks.…”

The work in this paper is a systematic research and engineering effort in exploring the design space of multi-interface wireless repeater systems. We present the design, implementation and evaluation of a wireless repeater system, Multifacet, which opportunistically utilizes multiple interfaces to enhance capacity. The system is designed to be transparent to application endpoints and does not need any end application modifications for adoption. Multifacet incorporates several techniques to achieve efficient bandwidth utilization across multiple interfaces -(a) coordinated channel sharing, (b) a simplified backpressure based striping technique, (c) a single link abstraction, and (d) the ability to seamlessly migrate a client to the optimal channel. Multifacet is implemented on offthe-shelf dual band wireless repeater and demonstrates high speeds (337 Mbps) operation. On average, Multifacet performs 50% better than traditional AP/repeater setups, and in the best case, more than 2⇥ better.
