Demonstrating autonomic on-demand content delivery

Abstract

The ANA core provides the basic means to efficiently implement autonomic networking solutions. Its core properties are self-configuration, self-adaptation, context-awareness through inherent monitoring and independence of addressing, like IP. The re-implementation of a P2P Video-on-Demand streaming system in ANA has shown several advantages of using the ANA core. However, demonstrating such a system live to an audience has additional challenges. In order to visualize core properties of ANA, we use two set-ups in the demonstration: a combination of Peers on PlanetLab with Peers on local Laptops, and streaming through an emulated Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) to a mobile client. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
