A way to identify decision criteria for selecting different mechanisms which provide reliable transmission in a Future Internet architecture
Daniel Günther, Eric MSP Veith, Paul Friedrich Müller · 2011
In the current rather rigid communication model on the Internet, the functional composition of available algorithms is dictated by the ISO/OSI stack model. A flexible architecture, as often discussed in the Future Internet research area, will be able to support the desire to dynamically choose certain mechanisms based on the requirements of a particular application at both design time and run time. Such a dynamic composition of algorithms needs not only a flexible architecture to combine methods, but also decision criteria to enable the automatic selection from a pool of mechanisms. We present a way to extrapolate the decision criteria with a simulated experimental environment. We will describe how our scenario is able to support an evaluation that will lead to the identification of the required decision criteria.
