In order to meet the requirements of high reliability and low latency in the 5G network environment, and reduce the resource consumption of network bandwidth at the same time, a Service Function Chain (SFC) deployment method based on node comprehensive importance ranking for traffic and reliability optimization was proposed. Firstly, Virtualized Network Function (VNF) was aggregated based on the rate of traffic change, which reduced the deployed physical nodes and improved link reliability. Secondly, node comprehensive importance was defined by the degree, reliability, comprehensive delay and link hop account of the node in order to sort the physical nodes. Then, the VNFs were mapped to the underlying physical nodes in turn. At the same time, by restricting the number of links, the “ping-pong effect” was reduced and the traffic was optimized. Finally, the virtual link was mapped through k-shortest path algorithm to complete the deployment of the entire SFC. Compared with the original aggregation method, the proposed method has the SFC reliability improved by 2%, the end-to-end delay of SFC reduced by 22%, the bandwidth overhead reduced by 29%, and the average long-term revenue-to-cost ratio increased by 16%. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the link reliability, reduce end-to-end delay and bandwidth resource consumption, and play a good optimization effect.
Aiming at the problem that most mapping algorithms based on virtual Software Defined Network (vSDN) do not fully consider the correlation between nodes and links, a vSDN mapping algorithm based on network topology segmentation and clustering analysis was proposed. Firstly, the complexity of physical network was reduced by the topology segmentation method based on the shortest hop count. Then, the request acceptance rate of mapping algorithm was improved by the clustering analysis method based on node topology and resource attributes. Finally, the nodes that do not meet the link requirements were remapped, by dispersing the link constraints to the bandwidth resources of nodes and the degrees of nodes to perform the consideration with constraints, so that the mapping process between nodes and links was optimized. Experimental results show that, the proposed algorithm can effectively improves the request acceptance rate of virtual network mapping algorithm based on Software Defined Network (SDN) architecture in physical networks with low connectivity probability.
In order to meet the requirements of high speed and multi-channel of data acquisition and transmission for γ-ray industrial Computed Tomography (CT), the system based on User Datagram Protocol (UDP) with Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) controlling was designed. This system increased FPGA counting unit, so more channels could be used for data collection. Main control was based on FPGA as the core, which used UDP protocol and was implemented by Verilog programming. Then, data was transmitted to upper computer for image reconstruction by Ethernet interface chip. The upper computer interface and mutual communication with the underlying transmission circuit realized by VC ++ 6.0 programming. The experimental results indicate that, in the 100 Mb/s full-duplex mode, the network utilization rate can reach 93%, and transmission speed is 93 Mb/s (11.625 MB/s), and the upper computer can receive data correctly in a long distance. So, it can satisfy the system requirements of rapid speed and long distance for γ-ray industrial CT.
An image decomposition based on minimizing the variational function with L0-norm regularization using local gradient was proposed, with regard to the problem that difference between gradient of the noise and gradient of the edge cannot be discriminated by the typical gradient computed from the first-order derivative. It consisted of fidelity term and regular term, and the regular term was estimated by the L0-norm of local gradient from the first-order derivative. Finally, the base layer, only including edges and excluding noises, was obtained by minimizing the proposed variational function. Compared with the decomposition algorithm with the typical L0 gradient regulation, the proposed algorithm can preserve sharp edges and avoid the impact of noises.
