Introduction
 Internet and WWW have emerged as global
ubiquitous media for communication and are
changing the way we conduct science, engineering,
and commerce
 They are also changing the way we learn, live, enjoy,
communicate, interact, engage, etc.
 It appears like the modern life activities are getting
completely centered around the Internet

Protocol “Layers”
Networks are complex!
 many “pieces”:
 hosts
 routers
 links of various
media
 applications
 protocols
 hardware, software
Question:
Is there any way of organizing
structure of network?
 Network architectures consist
of layers.
 A protocol is defined
between two entities of the
same layer.
 The ISO Reference Model has
seven layers.
 The Internet (TCP/IP) has
five layers.

7
ISO/OSI reference model
 presentation: allow applications to
interpret meaning of data, e.g.,
encryption, compression, machine-
specific conventions
 session: synchronization,
checkpointing, recovery of data
exchange
 Internet stack “missing” these layers!
 these services, if needed, must be
implemented in application

Internet Protocol Stack
 Application: supporting network
applications and end-user services
 FTP, SMTP, HTTP, DNS
 Transport: end to end data transfer
 TCP, UDP
 Network: routing of datagrams from
source to destination
 IPv4, IPv6, routing protocols
 Data Link: hop by hop frames, channel
access, flow/error control
 PPP, Ethernet, IEEE 802.11b
 Physical: raw transmission of bits

 transmission rate
= bandwidth
 routers: forward
packets (chunks of
data)

11
What’s the Internet?...
 protocols control sending,
receiving of msgs
 e.g., TCP, IP, HTTP, Ethernet
 Internet: “network of
networks”
 public Internet versus private
intranet
 Internet standards
 RFC: Request for comments
 IETF: Internet Engineering

12
What’s the Internet: a service view
 communication infrastructure
enables distributed
applications:
 Web, VoIP, email, games,
e-commerce, file sharing
 communication services
provided to apps:
 reliable data delivery from
source to destination
 “best effort” (unreliable)
data delivery

13
A closer look at network structure:
 network edge:
applications and hosts
 access networks,
physical media:
wired, wireless
communication links
 network core:
 interconnected
routers
 network of networks

14
The network edge
 end systems (hosts):
 run application programs
 e.g. Web, email
 at “edge of network”
client/server
peer-peer
 client/server model
 client host requests, receives
service from always-on server
 e.g. Web browser-client;
 Web server
 peer-peer model:
 minimal (or no) use of
dedicated servers
 e.g. Skype, BitTorrent

• Two-tier model (classic)
• Three-tier (when the server, becomes a client)
• Multi-tier (cascade model)

Client-Server Basic Model:
Clients invoke individual servers
• Example:
• Querying a web server, which could then query a mysql or oracle
database before returning the content of a page
• Web server is a client of the database server
– Browser  search engine -> crawlers  other web servers.

A service provided by multiple servers
• Services may be implemented as several server processes in
separate host computers.
• Example: Cluster based Web servers and apps such as Google,
parallel databases Oracle

17

A service provided by multiple
servers…
• This topology is extremely common.
• A web site like Google serves approximately 100M
searches a day.
• It is obviously simply not feasible to serve them from a
single server.
• Google uses clusters containing 10’s of thousands of
machines offering equivalent services, and you are
redirected (via DNS and other means) to one of them.
• Similar techniques can be used for Oracle databases,
that are replicated over many servers to offer
redundancy and performance.
18

Proxy servers (replication transparency) and
caches: Web proxy server
• A cache is a store of recently used data.

20
Web caches (proxy server)
• user sets browser: Web
accesses via cache
• browser sends all HTTP
requests to cache
– object in cache: cache
returns object
– else cache requests object
from origin server, then
returns object to client
Goal: satisfy client request without involving origin server

21
Web caches (proxy server)…
• cache acts as both client and server
• typically cache is installed by ISP (university, company,
residential ISP)
Why Web caching?
• reduce response time for client request
• reduce traffic on an institution’s access link.
• Reduce costs to use access link.

22
Caching scenario
Assumptions
• average object size = 1Mb
• average request rate from
institution’s browsers to origin
servers = 15/sec
• delay from the router on the
Internet side of the access link to
any origin server and back is = 2
sec (Internet delay)
Consequences
• total delay = Internet delay + access
delay + LAN delay
= 2 sec + >20 sec+ milliseconds

100 Mbps LAN
1.5 Mbps
access link

23
Caching scenario…
possible solution (expensive)
• increase bandwidth of access link
to, say, 10 Mbps
Consequence
• Total delay = Internet delay + access
delay + LAN delay
= 2 sec + 2 sec + msecs
• often a costly upgrade

24
Caching scenario…
possible solution: install cache
• suppose hit rate is 0.5 (up to 0.7)
consequence
• 50% requests satisfied almost
immediately
• 50% requests satisfied by origin
server
• utilization of access link reduced to
50%, resulting in lower delay rate
• Cashes may not have up to date
version of the resource!

25
Conditional GET
• Goal: don’t send object if cache
has up-to-date cached version
• cache: specify date of cached
copy in HTTP request
If-modified-since: <date>
• server: response contains no
object if cached copy is up-to-date:
HTTP/1.0 304 Not Modified
cache server

If-modified-since:

Variants of Client Sever Model: Mobile code
and Web applets
• Applets downloaded to clients give good interactive response
• Mobile codes such as Applets are potential security threat, so
the browser gives applets limited access to local resources
(e.g. NO access to local/user file system).
a) client request results in the downloading of applet code

b) client interacts with the applet
26

Variants of Client Sever Model:
Mobile Agents
• A running program (code and data) that travels from one
computer to another in a network carrying out an
autonomous task, usually on behalf of some other
process
– advantages: flexibility, savings in communications cost
• Potential security threat to the resources in computers they
visit. The environment receiving agent should decide which of
the local resource to allow. (e.g., crawlers and web servers).
• Agents themselves can be vulnerable – they may not be able
to complete task if they are refused access.
• Example technology:
– Java Agent Development Framework (JADE)
27

Thin clients and compute servers
• Network computer: download OS and applications from
the network and run on a desktop (solve up-gradation
problem) at runtime.
• Thin clients: Windows-based UI on the user machine and
application execution on a remote computer. E.g, X-11
system.

Thin clients and compute servers…
• Network computer: Citrix Application Server does this,
loading applications over network as needed to run on
local desktop.
• Thin clients: X11 (Unix), RDC/Terminal Services
(Windows), VNC (Unix/Windows) “Presentation
Server” approach Sends raster of desktop image,
– user clicks and keyboard entries are sent to remote server.
• Centralized infrastructure is easy to maintain and
secure(eg keep antivirus and patches up to date
centrally)!
29

Peer Processes: A distributed application
based on peer processes
• All of the processes play similar roles, interacting cooperatively as peers to
perform distributed activities or computations without distinction between
clients and servers. E.g., music sharing systems Napster, Gnutella, Kaza,
BitTorrent.
• Distributed “white board” – users on several computers to view and

41
The Network Core
 mesh of interconnected
routers
 the fundamental question:
how is data transferred
through net?
 circuit switching:
dedicated circuit per
call: telephone net
 packet-switching: data
sent thru net in discrete
forms

42
Network Core: Circuit Switching
 A ''dedicated'' circuit is
set up for each
connection.
 The communicating
parties use this fixed
circuit during the
conversation.
 Once the
communication finish,
the circuit can be
released for other uses.

43
Network Core: Circuit Switching…
 network resources (e.g., bandwidth)
divided into “pieces”
 pieces allocated to calls
 resource piece idle if not used by owning call (no
sharing)
 dividing link bandwidth into “pieces”
 frequency division
 time division

44
Circuit Switching: FDM and TDM

Example:

45
Network Core: Circuit Switching…
 Advantage
 Fixed bandwidth,
guaranteed capacity (no
congestion)
 Low variants in end-to-
end delay (delay is
almost constant)
 Disadvantages:
 Connection set-up and
termination introduces
extra overhead (thus
initial delay)
 User pay for circuit, even
when not sending data
Other users can't use the
circuit even if it is free of traffic
• statistics show that during a
typical phone conversation:-
- 64-73% of the time one
speaker talking
- 3-7% of the time both
spearkers talking,
- 20-33% of the time both
speakers silent.
Example: Ordinary voice phone
service

46
Network Core: Packet Switching
each end-end data stream
divided into packets
 user A, B packets share
network resources
 each packet uses full link
bandwidth
 resources used as needed
resource contention:
 aggregate resource
demand can exceed
amount available
 congestion: packets
queue, wait for link use
 store and forward:
packets move one hop
at a time
 Node receives complete
packet before forwarding
Bandwidth division into “pieces”
Dedicated allocation
Resource reservation

47
Packet Switching: Statistical Multiplexing
Sequence of A & B packets does not have fixed pattern,
bandwidth shared on demand  statistical multiplexing.
TDM: each host gets same slot in revolving TDM frame.

link

48
Packet-switching: store-and-forward
 takes L/R seconds to
transmit (push out)
packet of L bits on to
link at R bps
 store and forward: entire
packet must arrive at
router before it can be
transmitted on next link
Example:
 L = 7.5 Mbits
 R = 1.5 Mbps
 transmission delay = 15
sec
R R R

49
Packet switching
Advantage
 Packet Switching is more efficient and robust for data
that can withstand delays in transmission.
example:- e-mail messages and Web pages.
 great for bursty data
 resource sharing
 simpler, no call setup
 Disadvantage
 excessive congestion: packet delay and loss
 protocols needed for reliable data transfer,
congestion control

Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing
 Mobile Computing
• People traveling with their computers while
staying connected to other computers or the
Internet.
 Ubiquitous Computing
• Weiser’s idea of one person, many
computers as opposed to the mainframe
technology.
•(also known as “pervasive computing”)

The Trends in Computing Technology
● Mainframe computing (60’s-70’s)
– massive computers to execute big
data processing applications
– very few computers in the world
● Desktop computing (80’s-90’s)
– one computer at every desk to help in
business related activities
– computers connected in intranets to a
massive global network (internet), all
wired
● Ubiquitous computing (00’s?)
– tens/hundreds of computing devices
in every room/person,
- becoming “invisible” and part of the
environment 51

interaction in which information processing has been
thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities.
 Integrate computers seamlessly into the world
– invisible, everywhere computing.
– Often called pervasive/invisible computing.
 Ubicomp is about making computers invisible.
