Abstract: A self organizing data center comprising: a plurality of services, each service configured to select and modify its placement; and a plurality of servers, each server configured to select and modify its resource allocation to each placement. A service or service application executing in the data center can request to modify its resource allocation. The data center, upon receiving a request to modify the resource allocation, runs an auction among the services and determines the proposed new resource allocation and its conditions. The service transmits an answer to the data server and if the answer indicates acceptance of the new resource allocation, the data center implements the new resource allocation.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing a network. A TSDN controller determines a change or an anticipated change in traffic in the network. The controller identifies one or more congested links in the network by solving an optimization problem for maximizing network utility to accommodate the change or anticipated change. Solving the optimization problem includes solving for a set of link constraint dual variables associated with links of the network. The link capacity of one or more links of the network is adjusted to decrease the congestion.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for supporting estimation of inter-satellite link acquisition times in a satellite constellation. The method includes computing or generating an indication of a statistical model based on observations for prior link acquisition times. The method further includes communicating an indication such as a statistical model for link acquisition times or related parameters through a communication network, or a combination thereof. The indication may be communicated using one or more transmission techniques or protocols, such as flooding, a link state protocol or gossip protocol. Based on the disseminated indication, future link acquisition times can be predicted by satellites in the satellite constellation. Embodiments of the invention use a statistical-based computation approach, such as regression modelling or random variable modelling, to estimate link acquisition times or associated estimation parameters. The estimates or associated estimation parameters may then be disseminated through the constellation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for routing packets in a network, such as a satellite mesh network. For each one of multiple destination devices capable of further handling of the packet for routing to a destination (e.g. ground station) a respective cost or utility associated with forwarding the packet to that destination device is determined. For a given value k, an unsorted subset of k of the destination devices for which said costs are lowest or said utilities are highest is determined, without necessarily fully sorting the plurality of destination devices by cost or utility. The data packet is then forwarded to a selected one of this subset of destination devices. Cost may correspond to distance from destination device (e.g. satellite) to the further destination. Sorting networks and selector networks can be used, for example as implemented in hardware, to generate the unsorted subset.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for instantiating network slices using connectivity and computing resources, is provided. Information regarding connectivity and computing resources for supporting network slices is used to identify shared risk groups. Each shared risk group includes those resources expected to be disabled by a common failure event. A first set of functions, such as virtual network functions, belonging to a network slice, is instantiated on a first subset of the resources. The union of all shared risk groups which include at least one of the first subset of resources is disjoint from the union of all shared risk groups which include at least one of a second subset of resources. The second subset of resources is allocated for instantiating a second set of functions which are redundant with the first set of functions. As such, redundant network slices and/or functions thereof can be provided which are robust to failure.
