Status Report

• Insert cache and K-replica integrated and working.
• Benchmark tool will need modification to support different trace style.

Discussion

• Data traces available from LAWN wifi network in DCS.
  • Aggregate statistics, per-connection info (src, dst, protocol, data size)
• Do we worry about mobility impacts on GUID lookups by intermediate routers
  • How do we model the MF router states?
  • How do we model the lookup sources?
  • Lookups can be of different types
    • Single
    • Recursive
    • Set
    • Failure
  • LAWN data
  • Synthetic users
  • Mix of single/recursive/set lookups
  • WWW/Video/P2P
  • Failure impacts on above

New Tasks

• Work with LCSR's MRTG to classify data based on application protocols.
  • Develop a simple classifier to read the MRTG database and characterize the data traces.
  • Work on ways to simulate different rates/scales of different traffic classes.
• Get an emulation of 50 nodes in ORBIT working and see how the server/client operate at small scale.
  • Use a very simple network topology.
  • Work out the kinks for configuration/deployment of an experiment.
  • Look to automating some tasks in the future.
• Prototype TODO list.
  • Support for update message.
  • Support multiple servers running on the same ORBIT node.
  • Modify client benchmark for evaluation.
  • Downstream caching (cache passing lookup response).
