Title: COMPLEX NETWORK ANALYSIS AND INTELLIGENT PLAFORM

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:1877991

Service provider networks possess a broad spectrum of information (network intelligence) relative to network users such as subscribers and their data flows. Attempts to collectively and collaboratively leverage this intelligence have, in the past, fallen short with many shortcomings not being well addressed. A key challenge is the scale of data from a network that encompasses millions of flows and terabytes of traffic. The potential gains associated with network intelligence is significant with key benefits addressing network performance, optimizing infrastructure, and detecting malicious traffic. Data Products LLC will develop efficient technologies to collect, manage, and analyze such distributed network complex BigData that is a challenge to many organizations including the scientific community. This new solution includes developing advance machine learning methods such as network analytic algorithms, and other computational intelligence techniques on massive amount of complex network data generated within datacenters for tangible business intelligence and insights as specified Phase I topic 1.a. call. We advocate a platform to address the challenges of monitoring and managing networks by leveraging advance machine learning methods such as network analytic algorithms, and other computational intelligence techniques on vast amount of complex network data for tangible business intelligence and insights. Types of complex data collected (as allowed by the enterprise network policy) will include users’ traffic logs, network management data, network flow data, PerfSONAR service type data (throughput; one-way delay and the resulting loss, trace-route), other types of active and passive network management measurement data, real time and historic structured and unstructured data, geo data, images etc.
