Intelligence is at the edge of the network. 48 Trends in Network Evolution It’s all about services Building networks involves huge expenditures Services that generate revenues drive the network architecture Current trends Packet switching vs. circuit switching Multimedia applications More versatile signaling End of trust Many service providers and overlay networks Networking is a business 49 Packet vs. Circuit Switching Architectures appear and disappear over time Telegraph (message switching) Telephone (circuit switching) Internet (packet switching) Trend towards packet switching at the edge IP enables rapid introduction of new applications New cellular voice networks packet-based Soon IP will support real-time voice and telephone network will gradually be replaced However, large packet flows easier to manage by circuit-like methods 50 Optical Circuit Switching Optical signal transmission over fiber can carry huge volumes of information (Tbps) Optical signal processing very limited Optical logic circuits bulky and costly Optical packet switching will not happen soon Optical-to-Electronic conversion is expensive Maximum electronic speeds << Tbps Parallel electronic processing & high expense Thus trend towards optical circuit switching in the core 51 Standards New technologies very costly and risky Standards allow players to share risk and benefits of a new market Reduced cost of entry Interoperability and network effect Compete on innovation Completing the value chain Chips, systems, equipment vendors, service providers Example 802.11 wireless LAN products 52 Standards Bodies Internet Engineering Task Force International Telecommunications Union International telecom standards IEEE 802 Committee Internet standards development Request for Comments (RFCs): www.ietf.org Local area and metropolitan area network standards Industry Organizations MPLS Forum, WiFi Alliance, World Wide Web Consortium 53 Exercise 1 The introduction of a new services usually impacts other services through substitution. Describe how substitution takes place in the following cases. a) b) c) d) E-mail, facsimile and postal mail E-mail, local and long distance phone service Cell phone, local and long distance phone service Peer-to-peer file exchange and commercial CD recording 54 Solution Ex 1.1 a) E-mail, facsimile and postal mail E-mail is used for most of the correspondence previously handled by postal mail. Documents sent by facsimile are also transferred using E-mail as attachments. Hardcopies can be scanned for electronic transmission b) E-mail, local and long distance phone service E-mail is an inexpensice and convenient alternative for most of the communication in which real time interaction is not essential. Instant-messaging is faster than e-mail and more closely approaches the real-time experience of the telephone c) Cell phone, local and long distance service cell phone is used for local and long distance calls mostly because users can be reached even if they are not in a specific location such as home or office. The steep drop in the cost of long distance relative to the cost of cellular airtime has enable ‘call anywhere’ cellular service offering 55 Exercise 1.2 Describe step-by-step procedure that is involved from the time you deposit a letter in a mailbox to the time the letter is delivered to its destination. What role do names, addresses and mail codes play? How might the letter be routed to its destination? To what extent can be the process be automated? 56 Solution Ex 1.2 The steps involved in mailing a letter are 1. The letter is deposited in mailbox 2. The letter is picked up by postal employee and placed in a sack 3. The letter is taken to a sorting station, where it is sorted according to destination, as determined by the mail code and grouped with other letters with the same destination mail code. ( or by largest geographical unit / country/ city) 4. The letter is shipped to the post office that handles the mail for the specific mail code 5. The letter is then sorted by street address 6. The letter is picked up at the post office by the postal worker responsible for delivering to the specified address 7. The letter is delivered according to the number and street 57 Exercise 1.3 Suppose that a letter is sent by fax. Is this mode of communications connectionless or connection-oriented? Realtime or non-real time? SOLUTION: In order to send a letter by fax, a telephone connection must first be established. Therefore, the mode of communication is connection oriented. The transfer of information across the network accurs in real time. 58 Exercise 1.4 Two musician is located in different cities wish to have a jam session over a communications network. Find the maximum possible distance between the musicians if the are to interact in real time, in the sense of experiencing the same delay in hearing each other as if they were 10 meters apart. The speed of sound is approximately 330 m/s. Assume that the network transmits the sound at the speed of light in cable, 2.3 x 108 m/s. SOLUTION: Find the delay for the sound when the musician 10 m apart: t10 = 10/ (330 m/s) = 30.30 milliseconds The maximum distance is the time required for a real time ‘experience’ times the cable speed d = (2.3 x 108 m/s) x (30.30 x 10-3 s) = 6 969 km 59
