The present invention concerns control of service quality on a data network. It more specifically applies to data networks allowing the supply of various services, such as transmission of voice, data, video etc. This network can for example be a network based on the protocols of the TCP/IP (Transport Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) family, that is the type commonly known as Internet.
Certain services require an expressed reservation of resources within the network. In fact, certain networks, such as Internet, have been provided to transmit data, but neither the voice nor video. Within the Internet, the transmissions of data are carried out in the form of packets, each packet being routed to its destination independently of the other packets. Each packet is traditionally identified by a IP header, a 5-tuple: protocol used, address, address and transmitter port, address and port of the recipient. The Ip header can include other more specific data concerning the packet in question(length).
The term microflow is generally understood to be a set of packets which has the same 5-tuple or at least the same 4-tuple. In effect, the IP header is unable to include identification of the port of the transmitter. In the rest of the description, the term microflow covers these two possibilities. The term flow is understood to be a set of packets or microflows having at least one common parameter of the IP header.
So as to transmit the flow of packets corresponding to the voice or images by means of these networks, it is necessary to reduce the rate of losses of the packets and also the transmission time so as to ensure effective listening or sufficient viewing for the recipient of the transmission. This minimization of the loss rate of packets and the transmission time is normally carried out via the reservation of internal resources within the nodes of the network (or routers).
To sum up, in practice, the terminal wishing to obtain a certain service quality for a specific flow transmits a service quality request for said flow before sending the corresponding packets.
Generally speaking, the service quality request is a resource reservation request, for example conforming to the RSVP (Reservation protocol) as defined by the RFC 2205 of the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force).
According to said RSVP protocol, each router receiving a resources reservation request must initially verify the resources asked for are available and route the request according to conventional routing algorithms. The resources reservation request thus follows a path which shall be normally that of the packets of the flow in question until it reaches the addressee. The latter then sends a reply to the initial transmitter which will ascend the path via an opposite direction. During this second passage, each router shall effectively reserve the requested resources.
With this type of protocol, each router needs to ensure the maintenance of the processing context corresponding to the service quality request which has been asked for. In particular, if a router of the network processes four flows, it needs to manage four corresponding stand-by files, that is one per flow.
The DiffServ (Differentiated Services model) architecture as defined by the RFC 2475 of the IETF offers a different resources reservation mechanism. Said mechanism is based on a priority marking of the packets of the IP flows. According to this architecture, the control of service quality is implemented by the allocation of priorities, called colours in this context, to each packet of a flow. The coloured packets need to be processed according to their priority by the router receiving them. The router no longer has to manage standby files per flow, but only a single standby file. In practice, the priority levels generally correspond to the nature of the flow. A voice traffic must have the highest priority, known as "expedited forwarding" in the DiffServ architecture, whereas a Web traffic ought to have the lowest precedence, known as "Best Effort" in the DiffServ architecture.
In practice, the RSVP or DiffServ solutions are complementary to each another so that the networks architectures of the prior art generally simultaneously implement the two protocols so as to make use of their respective advantages.
An implementation example of the prior art is shown on
The data network N comprises the routers R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6. Some of these routers are Edge routers R1, R2, R3, that is they are equipped with means for communicating with terminals, office-based applications or routers outside this data network N. The other routers R4, R5, R6 are internal routers which only have means for communication with other internal routers of the data network N.
In addition to the edge routers, the network may comprise other types of edge equipment. For example, this equipment may be gateways whose function is to transmit and arrange without having to carry out IP routing (Internet protocol).
According to this prior art, the edge equipment (routers, gateways, etc) are able to use the RSVP protocol, whereas the internal routers mainly use the DiffServ mechanism. But it is also possible to have certain internal routers which use the RSVP protocol, only a core network implementing the DiffServ protocol. It is also possible to have "All" DiffServ networks.
In the network shown on
If appropriate, the edge equipment R1 can transmit a reply to the terminal T1 informing it that the resources reservation has been effectively carried out.
The terminal T1 then sends the packets of the flow to the addressee terminal T3.
In accordance with the DiffServ mechanism, the router R1 marks each of the packets of the flow it receives with the precedence allocated to the flow according to the resources reservation request previously received. This is the "Code Point".
The packets are routed inside the data network N via the" routers R1, R4, R5, R6 and R3.
The router R3 then sends the flow of packets to the terminal T3 and the service quality request according to the RSVP protocol is sent to this terminal T3.
More generally, each of the routers of the network receives the packets which may correspond to various flows initiated in the network N. All these packets are marked with a precedence according to the DiffServ mechanism. Each router processes the packets it receives according to the precedence (such as "Expedited Forwarding", "Best Effort") allocated to it.
This solution of the prior art presents a problem since the verification of the available resources is only carried out by the edge equipment. If two service quality requests are, for example, initiated on two separate edge equipment elements, the following may result for an internal router of the network find it impossible to satisfy the requested service quality. The two service quality requests could be granted when one or even both could not be satisfied. In addition, the number of levels of precedence which may be granted according to the DiffServ mechanism is limited. Thus, all the flows corresponding to the voice traffic shall generally have the same DiffServ precedence and typically the precedence known as "Expedited Forwarding". Thus, each router shall process the "voice quality" type packets with the same precedence. If a congestion problem occurs to a router receiving several flows of this type, this shall result in an arbitrary deterioration of service quality for at least one of these flows.
This type of problem is common to all those solutions based on an admission control carried out by the equipment of the network. This for example is the case with the solutions described by the European patent applications EP 0714 192 from the IBM company and the document EP 0398 037 of the Toshiba company.
So as to illustrate this problem, if one looks again at the network N shown on
This new flow of packets initiated by the terminal T2 follows a path R2, R6, R5 and R3 as far as the terminal T3.
One portion of this path R5, R3 is common with the path borrowed by the flow of packets derived from the terminal T.
If one considers the case of an inexpensive configuration of the network, the links R5-R3 shall have been dimensioned so as to accept certain volume of simultaneous communications, a volume which in practice ought only to be exceeded in certain statistically rare situations.
Thus, if the sum of the flowrates of the two flows of packets initiated by the terminals T1 and T2 is greater than the maximum possible flowrate on the path R5-R3, the router R5 shall not be able to satisfy the service quality requested by at least one of the terminals T1 or T2 As the two flows allocate the DiffServ "Expedited Forwarding" precedence, these two packet flows shall be downgraded.
Because of this mechanism, it is possible to have a significant difference between the service quality asked for by the terminals and accepted by the network and the one effectively supplied due to a congestion of the traffic at the level of an internal node.
One solution is having a server which shall carry out calculations (algorithms) so as to determine congestion inside the network and accept or not accept a new flow request.
In the present invention, a case is considered where these networks exist with a server of this type able to determine if the acceptance of a new microflow could result in congestion on at least one node of the network.
The object of the present invention is then to determine which microflow needs to be stopped or refused inside the network so as to prevent congestion. If a microflow already initiated in the network is stopped, the internal resources are freed which makes it possible to accept a new microflow. Otherwise, the new microflow is refused.
According to the invention, a mechanism for allocating a logic priority to each microflow is implemented by the application requesting service quality. This logic priority enables each network concerned by transporting a microflow to implement a microflow preemption logic in an associated admission controller.
In this way, it is possible to design data networks cheaply based on a statistical analysis of the flows to be processed with optimum service quality management.
More specifically, the object of the invention concerns an admission control inside a network having a certain number of edge equipment elements for receiving the microflows to be transmitted in said network, said system being characterized in that an application requesting service quality for transmitting a microflow in the network includes means for allocating a logic priority to said microflow, said network including an admission controller comprising means to receive a request for service quality associated with said microflow to be transmitted and the logic priority which has been allocated to it and means to accept or prohibit said microflow.
The means to accept said microflow include means for determining an order for the preemption of the microflows in the network according to their logic priority so as to free the internal resources of the network with the aim of assessing the service quality requested by said microflow via the lowest logic priority microflow preemption.
In one embodiment of the invention, the admission controller associated with a network determines according to its preemption rules the microflow(s) to be preempted and informs the application of this.
In another embodiment of the invention, the admission controller is able to collaborate with said application for determining the flows to be preempted by providing it with a list of microflows which could be preempted.
According to the invention, for each network which a microflow will traverse, the admission controller associated with this network is informed by the admission controller associated with the preceding network of the logic priority allocated to the microflow.
Thus, by using an admission controller according to the invention, a new microflow can be admitted into the network only if the service quality requested can effectively be satisfied by interrupting, if appropriate, using a preemption mechanism one or the packet microflows already initiated in the network and allocated with the lowest logic priority.
It is therefore possible to avoid any over-supplying of the resources of the data network and obtain inexpensive architectures based on their statistical use.
The invention and its advantages are shown hereafter more clearly in the following description of embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings on which:
According to the general principle of the invention, the transmitter of the microflow A sends a service request Req(A) to an application AP. According to the invention, the application allocates it with a service quality level and a logic priority level. For example, when this concerns a voice transmission originating from a station identified as the most important (for example from the Director of a company), the application AP shall allocate an extremely high level of logic priority noted *** in the example.
This application then transmits the service quality request QoS (A), *** and the logic priority which it has allocated to the admission controller AC of the first network. If the admission controller includes means for detecting congestion in the network N1 and if it has calculated that there will be congestion, it shall either refuse the microflow A or authorize it but by stopping other microflow(s) already initiated in the network but allocate with a lower logic priority. Thus, the internal resources are freed by the microflow preemption based on the logic priorities associated with the microflows.
Moreover, the admission controller sends the admission controller Ac2 of the next network N2 the service quality request and the logic priority allocated to the microflow.
Generally speaking, via an admission control system according to the invention, the logic priority allocated to the microflow is transmitted to each of the admission controllers associated with the networks through which the microflow shall pass.
Preemption means can then be used, if appropriate, in the admission controller if the latter is able to detect whether the admission of the new microflow could result in a problem in a node or several nodes of the network. In basically dimensioned networks or more generally in which it is certain there are no congestion problems, the admission controller shall simply send the following admission controller the service quality request and the logic priority associated with the microflow.
In the case of a DiffServ type architecture, the microflow is allocated (or is already allocated) with a priority level of the traffic IP called 'precedence'. For example, a voice traffic is normally allocated a maximum precedence, namely "Expedited Forwarding", and a Web traffic, namely a "Best Effort" low precedence.
The logic priority allocated by the admission control system of the invention makes it possible to allocate to microflows of the same precedence a different logic priority permitting the preemption of one flow on another according to the logic criteria defined in the application and not according to the traffic IP.
For example, the logic priority level added to the microflows could depend on the identity of the user of the terminal.
The admission controller of the invention knows the list of flows initiated by each of the edge equipment and the logic priority which has been allocated to them.
Thus, via a knowledge of this information, the admission controller is able to determine as to whether or not the network can satisfy the new service quality initiated by a terminal.
In the case where the admission controller carries out calculations (uses algorithms) to determine whether the current use of the network is able to provide the service quality requested for the new microflow, the admission controller looks, if appropriate, for the list of lowest logic priority microflows initiated in the network.
One embodiment example of the invention inside a network with an "All DiffServ" architecture is shown on
A transmitter of a new microflow A, namely the terminal T1 in the example, sends a service request (1) concerning an application AP which may in practice be a call server, an SIP-proxy, an intermediate application, a gateway, etc. This request is made according to a protocol adapted to the application. This protocol can typically be of the SIP type ("Session Initiation Protocol") or even of the H.323 type of the ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union).
This application AP is able to carry out formatting, hypotheses of the correlation of several service quality requests, etc.
According to the invention, this application allocates a logic priority. In fact, this application has detailed knowledge of the microflow to be transmitted, especially from the transmitter to the recipient, and not only the from the addresses IP. This application then sends the service quality request (2) with the allocation of a logic priority, namely in the example a high priority noted *** for the flow A to the admission controller AC.
In the example shown on
Two cases of the figure are shown: in the first case, the network has sufficient internal resources to accept the new microflow A, namely when it is dimensioned broadly or when the application environment is such that there is no problem of congestion. In the second case, the acceptance of the microflow A would result in problems of congestion, certainly at at least one node of the network, the admission controller having calculation means enabling it to detect this problem.
Two variants of a control system according to the invention can then be used.
In a first variant shown on
The admission controller can then send back a message for accepting the microflow A to the edge router R1 according to the protocol COPS. This message contains the normal opening rules (passband, maximum and minimum flows) linked to the precedence of the microflow, for example "Expedited Forwarding". The router R1 can then transmit the microiflow A.
In a second variant shown on
It is this application AP which then carries out the choice of preemption and duly informs (4) the admission controller. The admission controller AC can inform (5) the application the microflow(s) it has effectively stopped.
If the admission controller AC receives the resources reservation request before receiving the message by the application AP of the corresponding service quality request, it informs the latter of the resources reservation request (3) and waits in return (4) for confirmation of the request and the allocation of the priority.
In all cases, the admission controller of the invention includes means to check that the parameters of the resources reservation request (3) clearly correspond to those contained in the service quality request transmitted (4) by the application AP. In the case where they do not correspond, the admission controller collaborates with the application so as to decide whether to accept or downgrade the service quality requested (3) by the edge equipment, which is expressed in the opening rules to be applied.
Next, if a congestion problem needs to be resolved, this can be sorted out by the two embodiment variants of the control system of the invention with reference to
In the first variant, the admission controller chooses the flow(s) to be preempted according to the logic priority of the microflows already initiated in the network, stops these flows (Stop B), informs the application AP of this and sends a message accepting the microflow A to the corresponding edge equipment R1.
In the second variant shown on
This application AP, which carries out this preemption choice, duly informs (6) the admission controller. In all cases, the admission controller AC informs (7) the application of the microflow(s) it has effectively stopped. The admission controller then sends the message for accepting the microflow A, OK A, with opening rules corresponding to the service quality.
In this mixed RSVP/DiffServ architecture, the admission controller is able to implement the COPS protocol with the edge equipment.
With the admission control system of the invention, the network is able to accept a microflow requiring a certain level of service quality (passband, flows) and satisfy it by allowing the freeing of the internal resources of the network by preempting the microflows according to given criteria. For example, a service quality request for a Voice traffic originating from a transmitter corresponding to an important customer could benefit from a priority higher than a service quality request originating from a third party.
It is this application which implements the rules for allocating logic priorities. These rules are based on the intelligence of the service in the application.
In the case where the admission controller of a network has no means for detecting a congestion problem or that there are no possible congestion problems inside the network, the admission controller has the logic priority transmitted allocated by the application to the microflow which traverses the network.

I don't think I'm ever going back.
Up until this point I have exclusively used a Whisper-light international. I really liked the fact that it was multi fuel. I was never too impressed with it, it just worked. I figured I'd give this a try on a recent trip when I was looking to save some weight. Oh man this little guy blew me away! Boil times of about half of my old whisper. Super small and packable, it fits with a canister in my GSI cook set. The only downside to the canister stoves is that you need to know how much fuel to bring. A small price for how well this works. I don't think I'll ever go back to a liquid fuel stove.

Only a few soldiers were killed in combat. Any security service personnel who died. Could include car accidents, illnesses etc.
If selected for publication, it will appear as soon as possible on Haaretz.com.
Israel fell silent on Sunday night as sirens wailed across the country to mark Memorial Day for fallen soldiers and victims of terror attacks.
At the evening's main ceremony, President Shimon Peres addressed Israel's bereaved families after lighting a memorial flame at the Western Wall plaza, saying that Israel seeks peace, but knows how to defend itself in case of war.
"On this blessed occasion, I want to say in the name of the state of Israel at large: We do not seek war," Peres told the famileies. "We are a nation that yearns for peace, but know how to, and will know how to, defend itself."
Peres also told that families that nothing can compensate for the loss of a loved one.
"I am aware that nothing can compensate for the sound of the steps of a son you expect to hear in the staircase and that has suddenly turned silent, the son whose uniform you hung on a hanger in the closet and that generates a yearning to smell the smell of his body one last time," Peres said.
"Facing your tormented eyes - there is a loss of words," Peres said, going on to compare Israel's destiny to that of an only son in human history.
"Israel's strength springs from the strength of its faith, and its greatness emanates from the heroism of its sons," said Peres. "Today we grieve for their loss and are blessed by their legacy."
Peres went on to say that Israel still faces threats that must not be ignored, and warned those who seek to harm Israel not to "belittle our capabilities."
"There are still those who wish to annihilate us," Peres told the families. "And at their head, the autocratic Iranian regime that seeks to cast its rule over the Middle East, silence it with lethal weapons, and launch an anti-Israel incitement campaign to deflect Arab concerns."
Peres said that Israel is a minority among the nations, but "we had the good fortune to have sons that defended us with great courage. Alone we won seven wars, and emerged from them more strengthened and more determined.
"We are a democratic country, with a great deal of divisiveness and chasms, and internal disagreements and wrangling," said the president, "yet we are also a nation that knows how to stand united and put aside the bickering in times of need, able to defend itself and inflict a resounding defeat on those who wish to destroy us."
Peres ended by thanking all those who have defended Israel and their families.
"We want to express our gratitude from the bottom of our hearts to the youths that are no more, whom you raised and in whom you instilled the values that made them into what they were until their last breath," he concluded.
"It is their courage that gave our people the strength to face the challenges ahead - not to fear the enemy, not to cease building, not to lose faith in the peace to come. And it will come."
Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Gabi Ashkenazi addressed the families after Peres, telling them he understands their pain over having lost loved ones.
Ashkenazi said every Israeli must ask himself if he has done enough for Israel and urged Israelis to nurture their unity and tolerance toward one another.
Meanwhile, dozens of Israeli musicians and artists, including Ninet Tayeb, Yehudith Ravitz and Yehoram Gaon, were set to perform in multiple ceremonies throughout the country.
Alongside the major ceremonies organized by city municipalities, suchas the annual Tel Aviv ceremony "singing in the square" held in RabinSquare, several venues offered alternative ceremonies remembering notonly the Jewish fatalities of war, but also the Arab and Palestinianfatalities of Mideast wars.
A two-minute siren is scheduled to be sounded at 11 A.M. (0800 GMT) Monday, to be followed by services in 43 military cemeteries.
The 24-hour commemoration ends Monday night, when massive celebrations marking Israel's Independence Day begin throughout the country.
Netanyahu: Peace will be achieved if Israel is strong
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier on Sunday said that Israel has learned peace can be achieved only if Israel remains strong and prepared to defend itself as its fallen soldiers have done in the past.
Netanyahu spoke at Ammunition Hill to commemorate Memorial Day in Israel.
As the sirens sounded Sunday night at 8 P.M., marking the beginning of Memorial Day for Israel's fallen soldiers and victims of terror, the number of the fallen soldiers stands at 22,682. Since last year's Memorial Day, 111 soldiers have been killed.
"Over the years, we have learned that the olive branch of peace will be achieved only if we remain strong, only if we will be prepared to defend our blood in the same way our fallen soldiers did at this site," said Netanyahu.
"They attacked from this site and other hills, not out of lust for war, but out of the belief in the righteousness of the goal of defending the Jewish people's one and only country," he added.
Netanyahu also spoke about the importance of Jerusalem, saying, "Twice we have paid the heavy price to release the siege on Jerusalem - the first time during the War of Independence and the second time when the city was bombarded during the Six-Day War. Jerusalem, which was then a withered divided city returned to being a city full of life."
Netanyahu said that since those wars, not a day has passed during which Israel did not extend its hand in peace to surrounding neighbors. "And our hand is still outstretched," he said.
Netanyahu also said that Israel's Memorial Day and Independence Day are inextricably linked. "We know that the first part is not possible without the second part. I wish it were different, but I know this day is different because all of Israel embraces the parents, brothers, wives and children of bereaved Israeli families."
Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, Supreme Court President Dorit Beinisch and chief rabbis Yona Metzger and Shlomo Amar also attended the ceremony, as did IDF soldiers, high school students and bereaved families.
Barak: Two-state solution will ensure Israel's Jewish majority
Earlier Sunday, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said a peace agreement with the Palestinians based on a two-state solution is a necessary condition for maintaining a Jewish majority in Israel.
Speaking at Tel Aviv University to mark Memorial Day, Barak also said that the process toward achieving peace must include help from the United States.
"The challenge of our generation is to turn Israel, in the coming decades, into an exemplary society worthy of the dreams and sacrifices of our fallen ones - and we will be tested on this," said Barak. "Even after 62 years of independence, the state of Israel is required to fight, to defend its security, and to bolster its strength."
Barak added that Israel must defend itself without compromise, but must adhere to the road map for peace as the basis for a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
"Such an agreement is critical to national security, and only it will ensure a solid Jewish majority for generations, with clear borders and an end to the conflict and claims. For this, we need cooperation with local and international parties, and, above all, close cooperation with the United States.
Barak on Sunday also announced that the government plans to build a national memorial hall for the nation's 22,682 fallen soldiers and victims of terror attacks.
The hall will be erected at the Mount Herzl military cemetery in Jerusalem, and will serve to immortalize all of Israel's fallen in one place. The new hall will list the names of every fallen soldier alongside a place for a candle to be lit on the anniversary of each soldier's death.
"As defense minister, I see a deep moral obligation to the bereaved families," said Barak. "Erecting the memorial hall is another step toward immortalizing the fallen's legacy and memory."
Barak added that "on the eve of Memorial Day, we will bow our heads, salute the fallen, and embrace the bereaved families."

Check the weather forecast...
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you are in the Royal Enclosure, you will have plenty of cover if the weather is wet. Otherwise, there is very little.
If the forecast is for rain, think about umbrellas (a big golf umbrella or small expanding ones which you can put in a small backpack). Also think about your feet. Maybe not such a problem for men, but for women in high heels... Put "something sensible" in the backpack just in case.
As an aside, the backpack will be useful for carrying all your winnings.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Many people have picnics in the carpark before the racing starts. I was astonished by the degree of sophistication and preparation. Gazebos, folding chairs...you name it. I was half expecting to see someone with a patio heater or chemical toilet.
Having flown in for the event, and just having a rented car, we felt quite the poor relatives sitting in the car with our Marks & Spencer sushi (roof up, due to uncertain weather.)
Next year we'll be better prepared. Anyone know if you can take a gazebo on the plane as hand luggage?
