As such, decentralized solutions that are flexible and adaptive to traffic and network dynamics are of paramount importance. To this end, we have been developing an in-network management approach in which an intelligent substrate allows the dynamic reconfiguration of resources according to network conditions. The set of nodes forming this logical structure are able to communicate with each other to coordinate their decisions. While in previous work we investigated the use of full-mesh and ring structures to connect the substrate nodes, we consider here a hybrid approach that combines the benefits of the other two. We describe algorithms that can be practically used to compute this hybrid structure and that take into account important criteria such as minimizing the latency and the communication overhead among the substrate nodes. We evaluate the impact of key parameters associated with the construction process. date: 2014-06-19 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: http://dx.doi.org/ 10.1109/NOMS.2014.6838387 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1053429 doi: 10.1109/NOMS.2014.6838387 isbn_13: 9781479909131 lyricists_name: Charalambides, Marinos lyricists_name: Pavlou, George lyricists_name: Tuncer, Daphne lyricists_id: MCHAR90 lyricists_id: GPAVL62 lyricists_id: DSTUN60 full_text_status: public series: IEEE IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium publication: 2014 IEEE NETWORK OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT SYMPOSIUM (NOMS) volume: 14 pages: 7 event_title: 2014 IEEE Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS), 5 - 9 May 2014, Krakow, Poland event_location: Krakow, POLAND event_dates: 05 May 2014 - 09 May 2014 book_title: 2014 IEEE Network Operations and Management Symposium (NOMS): Proceedings citation: Tuncer, D; Charalambides, M; El-Ezhabi, H; Pavlou, G; (2014) A Hybrid Management Substrate Structure for Adaptive Network Resource Management.
