The SDN technology allows network operators to manipulate logical map of the network and create multiple co-existing network slices independent of the underlying transport technology and network protocols. Furthermore, the separation of control plane and data plane makes the SDN a suitable candidate for end-to-end network service delivery. Enabling SDN at the optical layer can potentially facilitate application specific network slicing at optical layer, coordination of higher network layers and application withoptical layer. It can also provide a unified control plane platform for integration of packet and optical switched networks for access, metro and core network segments. This full day workshop explores the state-of-the-art, the potentials and the possible applications of software defined networks and OpenFlow framework empowered by optics. The workshop brings together technical contributions ranging from control plane technologies and networking techniques to techno-economic evaluations and market implications. The workshop includes a lively panel and audience debate to discuss and deepen the opinions of researchers, carriers, operators, device, and equipment vendors.

As an aside, could this type of phenomenon, in where it exists, then be exploited reusing concepts of primal-dual method of combinatorial optimization or the converse. Specific to the interplay of the PGM and Expanders course...could we look at the transform of a Graph as the inverse of its Adjacency matrix, if so is there an PGM transform for a Graphical model and its inverse and if so, is there a probabilistic-deterministic duality between them? Extending this further, i am wondering if there is such a thing as a continnum of EigenValues of the Adjacency matrix that moves a graph from being a graph to a topological space....and could we think of PGMs on a continuum of topological space, where the model is based on nodes (which are say "flat" regions and edges are the more "interesting" regions in the topology) A formalism application i want to hazard a guess is correlations between a large number of variables... wherein there is not a natural map to a discrete structure such as a graph and analysis based on them, we could possibly map it more naturally to a continuous topological space, and as usual leech upon the Mathematicians hard, rigorous arcane work (for me at least) to draw quick benefits.. An application for the above in the field of Networking i see is Information based networking and traffic management of the same. Questions arise such as can we characterize information in various "domain spaces" are there transforms to these spaces and can these be formalized for analysis and control either deterministically or stochastically. There could be applications in pattern recognition analytics and Root Cause Analysis also... Any pointers to existing literature in related areas appreciated.... I will pester the SDNRG and ICNRG list to see if someone gives me further pointers in areas related...

From the last lecture on missing data, and related to what= i posted in the general discussion earlier, the following thought/question oc= curred. Any pointers to related work in the literature and especially its applicati= ons is most appreciated.

A) A question i have is, is it true in nature that = an entity/function/ characterized in one domain is invariably deterministic in= one and probabilistic in the other.=A0=A0 Certainly this is true in position momentum uncertainty.

B) Are transforms viewed more generally the characterizati= on of the entity/function [Discrete or otherwise] in one domain where its tran= sform being the characterization of the same entity/function in its derivative of= the domain?

Can we combine A) and B) together=A0 t= o explore if typically nature prefers duality in deterministicity between a domain and its transform? =A0If so, is the wealth of knowledge with the communication folks reusable in here?

Now this seems to make intuitive sense, at least in= a handwaving way.=A0=A0 One could think of stochastic nature occurring essentially due to the loss of infinitesimality= in the observability of the characterising variable(s) of the function/entity.

From the last lecture on missing data, and related to what= i posted in the general discussion earlier, the following thought/question oc= curred. Any pointers to related work in the literature and especially its applicati= ons is most appreciated.

The missing data, especially the non MAR ones, perh= aps, is reminscent of what the communications folks daily bread. Digital sampling o= f a continuous wave form, once you sample, you essentially end up with Missing = Data in the signal.=A0 In this field, the Fourier Transform revolutionized analysis.

I wish i could cross post this to Expanders = group...I am nervous about earning the wrath of the very rigorous Mathematicians there! = =A0I am=A0 taking the liberty to handwave relatively in this group! Thanks for that.

Iam wondering if in the field of Probability a= nd Stochastic analysis, is there an equivalent to the transform. Looking at transforms, i= n the communications field it is between the time and frequency domain.= =A0=A0

A) A question i have is, is it true in nature that = an entity/function/ characterized in one domain is invariably deterministic in= one and probabilistic in the other.=A0=A0 Certainly this is true in position momentum uncertainty.

B) Are transforms viewed more generally the characterizati= on of the entity/function [Discrete or otherwise] in one domain where its tran= sform being the characterization of the same entity/function in its derivative of= the domain?

Can we combine A) and B) together=A0 t= o explore if typically nature prefers duality in deterministicity between a domain and its transform? =A0If so, is the wealth of knowledge with the communication folks reusable in here?

Now this seems to make intuitive sense, at least in= a handwaving way.=A0=A0 One could think of stochastic nature occurring essentially due to the loss of infinitesimality= in the observability of the characterising variable(s) of the function/entity. For, if you can observe upto the inifinitesimal limit you are certain of wh= at you are observing. Now is it then typically true that if you can observe to= the infinitesimal limit in one domain, it is impossible to do so in its transfo= rm domain which in itself is a derivative (and therefore an infinitesimal in itself) as mentioned above...

This is a kind notification that the paper submission deadline for: IEEE GLOBECOM 2013 Workshop - Software-Defined Networking (SDN) & Optics: a Control Plane for Emerging Optical Networks IS EXTENDED TO: *June 30, 2013 (Firm)* URL: GlobeCom2013/SDNOptics Atlanta, Georgia, USA December, 13, 2013 Software defined networking or SDN is defined as a control framework that supports the programmability of network functions and protocols by decoupling the data plane and the control plane, which are currently integrated vertically in most network equipment. The SDN technology allows network operators to manipulate logical map of the network and create multiple co-existing network slices independent of the underlying transport technology and network protocols. Furthermore, the separation of control plane and data plane makes the SDN a suitable candidate for end-to-end network service delivery. Enabling SDN at the optical layer can potentially facilitate application specific network slicing at optical layer, coordination of higher network layers and application withoptical layer. It can also provide a unified control plane platform for integration of packet and optical switched networks for access, metro and core network segments. This full day workshop explores the state-of-the-art, the potentials and the possible applications of software defined networks and OpenFlow framework empowered by optics. The workshop brings together technical contributions ranging from control plane technologies and networking techniques to techno-economic evaluations and market implications. The workshop includes a lively panel and audience debate to discuss and deepen the opinions of researchers, carriers, operators, device, and equipment vendors. Potential audiences include: university faculty, graduate students-Engineers, managers of vendors and operators, policy makers and market/technology analysts. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: =95 SDN architecture =95 OpenFlow and other enabling protocols =95 SDN for Flexible grid optical networks =95 Virtualized Networks and Clouds =95 SDN-based mobile backhaul architecture =95 SLA and QoS assurance in SDN =95 SDN standardization =95 SDN for carrier and data center networks =95 SDN as a new platform for businesses =95 SDN devices or sub-systems in optical networks =95 Software-defined optical transmission technologies =95 Software-defined multi-layer or multi-domain optical networks =95 Software-defined converged fixed and mobile aggregation/metro networks =95 Protection/restoration strategies in SDN =95 Green technologies in SDN =95 Emerging next-generation optical transport and enabling technology =95 Optical bandwidth virtualization and multilayer integration =95 Techno-economic analysis =95 Market expectations including operators=92 view =95 Experiments and field trials Format: Full-day workshop. We solicit high-quality contributions from both academia and industry that report on advances and open issues on SDN/OpenFlow for optical networks. Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Invited presentations from industry experts may be included to ensure that the scope of the program spans the whole range of topics involved.

Software defined networking or SDN is defined as a control framework t= hat supports the programmability of network functions and protocols by deco= upling the data plane and the control plane, which are currently integrated= vertically in most network equipment. The SDN technology allows network op= erators to manipulate logical map of the network and create multiple co-exi= sting network slices independent of the underlying transport technology and= network protocols. Furthermore, the separation of control plane and data p= lane makes the SDN a suitable candidate for end-to-end network service deli= very. Enabling SDN at the optical layer can potentially facilitate applicat= ion specific network slicing at optical layer, coordination of higher netwo= rk layers and application withoptical layer. It can also provide a unified = control plane platform for integration of packet and optical switched netwo= rks for access, metro and core network segments.

We have much progress on the SDN verification based on the formal method, especially with process algebra called pACSR which is an extended version of packet based Algebra of Communicating Shared Resources (ACSR). We will show a formal verification theory how to verify the safety properties of SDN (e.g., no loop, consistency, etc.) using symbolic algorithms.

The SDN technology allows network operators to manipulate logical map of the network and create multiple co-existing network slices independent of the underlying transport technology and network protocols. Furthermore, the separation of control plane and data plane makes the SDN a suitable candidate for end-to-end network service delivery.

Dear Dave and Nick,

 

If you're interested I'd like a 5-10 minutes slot to= present a draft entitled "ALTO Cost schedule" that proposes an e= xtension of the Application Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) protocol and = includes a use case for extended ALTO information being exploited by SDN controllers.

 

The base ALTO provides applications with information= on the underlying transport network topology and its related routing costs= . The proposed extension allows to provide cost values that are time-depend= ent and distributed over sets of time intervals. Besides, the costs may reflect various metrics such as monetary= cost, hop count or  bandwidth.

 

ALTO cost values in "schedule mode" can be= used as historic or predictive information to appropriately schedule trans= fers of application resources (contents, services...) and achieve applicati= on traffic balancing. Cost Schedules can be defined by the SDN Controller upon link usage patterns collected from the = southbound interface.

 

The presentation was already scheduled at IETF85 and= the slides may be found at the link below. htt= p://tools.ietf.org/agenda/85/slides/slides-85-alto-4.pdf  

The latest version of the draft is here http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-randriamasy-alto-cost-schedule-02 &nbs= p;

One factor with the separation of control plane from the data plane that we would need to confront with is the tradeoff between viewspan and the granularity of information that the controller has. Going further, for optimized reprovisioning and fault analysis, based on the concluding aspects of the below, i am wondering if an applicability that can be explored is to see if Nature prefers, which we can look up to Topologists or Geometers, evolution paths of topologies (characterized by say curvatures and the likes, given a known stimuli) and if we can classify our network situation to belong to one of these known topologies and its evolutionary behavior then we could then exploit natures preference to be able to mask details of fine grain and yet be able to do accurate network operations. This sort of a thing could be more application in Information than just plain bits and bytes. Now that PGM is over, i did what i was always afraid of doing, watch a movie with popcorn in hand (hint of my status and sorry state of affairs :-))) The movie happened to be Russel Crowes "A Bueatiful Mind" John Nash (and Steve Jobs per what he said at the commencement in Stanford) perhaps didnt have the opportunity of courseera else they could have simply attended classes they like from the worlds best profs... Now in the Movie (Thanks to the makers, simplifying what these mathematicians do must be a well, "non trivial" result WLOG :-)) Russel Crowe says 1. "In a competitive behavior someone always looses" Isnt there a sort of duality here, if you make an edge characterizing people who compete, the expansion of the graph is inverse to the expansion characterising the "common good" Relate to the post i was musing about in the post thanking this course.... 2. Crowe also says "Derive and Equilibrium where prevalence is a non singular event, where nobody losses" The term prevalence points to probability. Now looking at this statement, isnt is eerily close to Reiemann Hypothesis, where everybody (every root ) has a real part 0.5 We could consider this is "nobody losses" or simply a Max Fair allocation problem optimization where everybody has a fair share of winning or loosing. There were two posts on LinkedIn recently one about Steve Jobs commencement speech at Stanford and another about how to get the job one really wants. For both i commented that what if a) we wake up everyday and think it is the last day for others. b) We just do the job the organization really needs and as a result if the jobs that we really want come to us then it is an indicator of a healthy economy. It appears that both the above was driven by my musings earlier (summarized in the Thank You note) in the group related to Expander Graphs. Several years ago my colleagues were strongly recommending me to see this movie while working at IIT Madras, i was going thro some issues and last thing i was interested in was looking at a Genius for contrast and never did. Glad i didnt and did after i took the PGM course, especially if we go by Steve Jobs quote about connecting the dots backwards..It is more emotionally and aesthically satisfying now. 3. Relate the above to what Crowe goes on to say...Everybody in the group does what he does for himself and the group. This too relates to the above. Now, we come to an earlier posting of mine on this group regarding duality on the domain and its transform. The situation at Princeton with the single Blonde "could do with some revision" now that we have taken PGM...:-) A more likely scenario is there are many Blondes who are and find mathematicians attractive and the converse. The leaves out the first argument of Crowe (which in any case assumes a strong dependency between the two events). Now for the more likely scenario i was wondering what if each Gentelmen Mathematican indentify (with independence assumption being made) who each is most attracted to, and then, listen to this, also indentifies his best male Mathematician friend (or debatedly, his fircest male mathematician competitor) and then takes the pain to introduce him to her (and then perhaps iterate and let the markov chain mix) Would that be closer to the Riemannian Middle? What is the domain and the transform. Is one (The Adam Smith version that needed alteration) more of instant gratification and the other (what i have said here is an altered version of Russel Crowes) delayed gratification (assuming the adage what goes around comes around hold true :-0) Doing good to oneself is instant gratification and doing good for the others, hoping mother nature is fair when mixing has been achieved, is delayed gratification. In the former it is hard to fit in an mixing scenrio when in the latter it is more natural. In tamil we have a song that has an approx meaning that goes like so "IF you win a lottery it is a good day for one and and for that day" and so on and finally "if you have others good in your mind every day of your life is a good life" is Riemannian hypothesis then a statement of everyone getting the best chance of winning when your interest coincides with others interest (both the domain and the transform together) a probabilistic mixing gives everyone a fair chance of winning? Eveything i have mentioned above seem to be tied together by this hypothesis including the two comments made on the Linked Posts Business and Personal Life! Interestingly also, Russel Mentions Manifold Embedding....googled (gosh i would have never gone all the way to a library to search for books on this, Google and such has so tremendoulsy changes academic endeavor unthinkable during my student dates, pun intended) and it throws up this interesting Rimeannian Manifolds. It is interesting we have a feature that we always need in Probability all probability instances summing to one in a slightly different perspective here.. Isometric embedded families of the manifold. All curvatures are determined solely by distance along the path no matter which instance of embedding you use. [The paper example in wikipedia] I have never known what an isometric embedding was before, so would appreciate a correction if i got the meaning wrong there from what i picked up from wikileaks on Geometry. Probing further there is even this osculating paraboloid concept and the curvature at the centre of a parabola is well very eerily half. There are various ways perhaps we can use (if not already) this fact in probabilistic inference then and perhaps be able to use fundamental properties these Geometers, Algebraic or otherwise., discover for us, to quickly go inference or learning once we assign it to a manifold class. This relates to an earlier posting i made about topolgies and continous eigenvalues. So a question arises is the osculating parabola (or paraboloid) on manifolds viewed probabilistically be considered as a restatement of Riemanian Hypothesis. Russel Crowes scenario about one Blonde could be applied to isolated security threats in a network, while the other scenario could be used for optimum resource allocation or facility location. Knowledge existing in evolution of topology or differntial geometry could help us do trend analysis, and inference, learning at a much corser level and exploting the isometric embedding property infer the changes to stimuli. I pray dearly my Physical Metallurgy Professor is not in the audience, and neither is Robert Reedhill but i only vaguely rememeber Austenite martensite, diffusonless transoformation and Shape memory alloys. Relate the above, markov mixing and any applications to resilient network systems probabilistically.

Now for the more likely sc= enario i was wondering what if each Gentelmen Mathematican indentify (with = independence assumption being made) who each is most attracted to, and then= , listen to this, also indentifies his best male Mathematician friend (or d= ebatedly, his fircest male mathematician competitor) and then takes the pai= n to introduce him to her (and then perhaps iterate and let the markov chai= n mix) Would that be closer to the Riemannian Middle? What is the domain an= d the transform. Is one (The Adam Smith version that needed alteration) mor= e of instant gratification and the other (what i have said here is an alter= ed version of Russel Crowes) delayed gratification (assuming the adage what= goes around comes around hold true :-0)=A0=A0Doing good to oneself is instant gratification and doing good for t= he others, hoping mother nature is fair when mixing has been achieved, is d= elayed gratification. In the former it is hard to fit in an mixing scenrio = when in the latter it is more natural.

In tamil we have a song that has an appro= x meaning that goes like so "IF you win a lottery it is a good day for= one and and for that day"=A0=A0a= nd so on and finally "if you have others good in your mind every day o= f your life is a good life" is Riemannian hypothesis then a statement = of everyone getting the best chance of winning when your interest coincides= with others interest (both the domain and the transform together) a probab= ilistic mixing gives everyone a fair chance of winning?=A0=A0Eveything i have mentioned above seem to be tied tog= ether by this hypothesis including the two comments=A0=A0made on the Linked Posts Business and Personal Life!

Interestingly also, Russel Mentions Manif= old Embedding....googled (gosh i would have never gone all the way to a lib= rary to search for books on this, Google and such has so tremendoulsy chang= es academic endeavor unthinkable during my student dates, pun intended) and= it throws up this interesting Rimeannian Manifolds. It is interesting we h= ave a feature that we always need in Probability all probability instances = summing to one in a slightly different perspective here.. Isometric embedde= d families of the manifold. All curvatures are determined solely by distanc= e along the path no matter which instance of embedding you use. [The paper = example in wikipedia] I have never known what an isometric embedding was be= fore, so would appreciate a correction if i got the meaning wrong there fro= m what i picked up from wikileaks on Geometry. Probing further there is eve= n this osculating paraboloid concept and the curvature at the centre of a p= arabola is well very eerily half.

There are various ways perhaps we can use= (if not already) this fact in probabilistic inference then and perhaps be = able to use fundamental properties these Geometers, Algebraic or otherwise.= , discover for us,=A0=A0to quickly go = inference or learning once we assign it to a manifold class.=A0=A0This relates to an earlier posting i made about= topolgies and continous eigenvalues. So a question arises is the osculatin= g parabola (or paraboloid) on manifolds viewed probabilistically be conside= red as a restatement of Riemanian Hypothesis.

Russel Crowes scenario about one Blonde c= ould be applied to isolated security threats in a network, while the other = scenario could be used for optimum resource allocation or facility location= . Knowledge existing in evolution of topology or differntial geometry could= help us do=A0=A0trend analysis, and i= nference, learning at a much corser level and exploting the isometric embed= ding property infer the changes to stimuli.

=A0I pray dearly my Physical= Metallurgy Professor is not in the audience, and neither is Robert Reedhil= l but i only vaguely rememeber Austenite martensite, diffusonless transofor= mation and Shape memory alloys.=A0=A0R= elate the above, markov mixing and any applications to resilient network sy= stems probabilistically.=A0

The SDN technology allows network operators to manipulate logical map of the network and create multiple co-existing network slices independent of the underlying transport technology and network protocols. Furthermore, the separation of control plane and data plane makes the SDN a suitable candidate for end-to-end network service delivery. Enabling SDN at the optical layer can potentially facilitate application specific network slicing at optical layer, coordination of higher network layers and application withoptical layer. It can also provide a unified control plane platform for integration of packet and optical switched networks for access, metro and core network segments. This full day workshop explores the state-of-the-art, the potentials and the possible applications of software defined networks and OpenFlow framework empowered by optics. The workshop brings together technical contributions ranging from control plane technologies and networking techniques to techno-economic evaluations and market implications. The workshop includes a lively panel and audience debate to discuss and deepen the opinions of researchers, carriers, operators, device, and equipment vendors.
