ProgME: Programmable Measurement Architecture
This project envisages and advocates a versatile measurement architecture as an integral part of any future network substrate, with not only built-in hardware and software primitives incorporated into network elements, but also network-wide architectural support for network measurement.
In particular, we explore a Programmable MEasurement (ProgME) architecture based on a novel concept of flowset – arbitrary set of flows defined according to application requirements and/or traffic conditions. Through a simple flowset composition language, ProgME can incorporate application requirements, adapt itself to circumvent the challenges on scalability posed by the large number of flows, and achieve a better application-perceived accuracy. ProgME can analyze and adapt to traffic statistics in real-time. Using sequential hypothesis test, ProgME can achieve fast and scalable heavy hitter identification.
