8、 F.746 (06/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is res

9、ponsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the

10、 ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collabora

11、tive basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain m

12、andatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements

13、. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU

14、takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual pr

15、operty, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/.

19、components 1 Scope The multimedia optimization control components (MOCCs) defined in this Recommendation are assistance entities which can obtain reliable information from the underlying network. This sort of information can be fed to multimedia applications and services and used as guidance service

20、s in the process of service node selection, data traffic optimization and performance enhancement. The MOCC component is located between the multimedia applications and services layer and the network layer. MOCC entities will not be involved in actual data relay and transmission. The MOCC components

21、 can be deployed either in distributed multimedia systems or traditional client-server systems. They can be used in various networks such as NGN ITU-T Y.2012, internet and other distributed systems. This Recommendation specifies requirements according to some typical scenarios. 2 References The foll

30、 of users, especially for services on the Internet. In contrast with traditional centralized service provision models, more and more services and applications tend to be deployed as distributed models, meaning that the data are transmitted along the paths established among nodes distributed across t

31、he whole network. Web content distribution, P2P streaming and P2P file sharing are typical examples of distributed models. For most distributed networks, each node should select one or more service providing nodes from a set of candidates to acquire the desired resources. However, under the end-to-e

32、nd principle, applications and underlying networks are separated except on the end nodes. Therefore, the “selection“ might be random, since the applications may not have the reliable information from transport networks such as topology, congestion status and network address translation (NAT) install

33、ation. Sometimes, nodes may cross several network boundaries to fetch the desired resources, thus generating a large amount of costly cross-ISP traffic. MOCCs defined in this Recommendation are complementary entities that can collect reliable information from the underlying network, analyse it and p

34、rovide guidance services to the multimedia applications and services (see ITU-T F.700 and ITU-T F.701) in the process of service node selection, data traffic optimization and performance enhancement. 6 Functional architecture Conceptually, multimedia optimization control components are located betwe

35、en the application and service layer and the network layer. The MOCC functional model is illustrated in Figure 1. It is composed of an MOCC server and MOCC clients. Rec. ITU-T F.746 (06/2012) 3 The MOCC server, which resides on the network side, is responsible for collecting and analysing the inform

36、ation from the underlying transport network, and for providing the processed information to multimedia services and applications and to the MOCC client. The MOCC server consists of an entrance component, a node location resolution function (NLRF) and a resource awareness and statistics function (RAS

37、F).

38、onents The functions of MOCC server components are as follows: MOCC entrance component: The MOCC entrance component provides registration and service discovery functions for NLRF, RASF and the MOCC client. NLRF and RASF should register its address, policies, server status and other information with

39、the MOCC entrance component. In order to select the optimum service providing nodes, since there might be multiple MOCC servers in the network, the client should be first authenticated to the MOCC entrance component, which will be responsible for providing the client with the address of the most pro

40、mising NLRF and RASF. The MOCC entrance component has interfaces with NLRF, RASF, as well as the MOCC clients. NLRF and RASF: NLRF and RASF can provide the guidance service or node selection service to applications by collecting and analysing the information of the underlying network. In practice, t

41、he NLRF and RASF can be implemented in one physical MOCC server. Network operators can deploy multiple MOCC servers with multiple instances of NLRF and RASF. The information of NLRF and RASF can be maintained by the MOCC entrance component. Some policies may be set for the clients to access NLRF and

42、 RASF. By collecting the information of the underlying network in real time, the MOCC servers could obtain reliable information, such as static topology of the whole network (maintained by NLRF) or dynamic network status (maintained by RASF). Network deployment information: This information is relat

43、ively stable, for example, link capacities, node locations and adjacency relationships of the service nodes, and NAT installations. Furthermore, basic information of the service nodes and some policies enforced by the carriers may also be included in network deployment information. This kind of info

44、rmation is collected and maintained by NLRF. Network resource status information: This information includes bandwidth-related data, congestion status of links, etc. This kind of information is more dynamic than network deployment information and can be used as a basis for load balancing and traffic

45、optimization. This kind of information is collected and maintained by RASF. 4 Rec. ITU-T F.746 (06/2012) The MOCC client is embedded in the end user device and is responsible for communicating with the MOCC server to acquire information (through interface Icin Figure 1) for multimedia service and ap

46、plication optimization. Multimedia optimization control components (MOCC server and MOCC client) have interfaces with the multimedia service and application control entities (Iain Figure 1), by which the multimedia system can acquire the necessary information from the transport network layer. In add

47、ition, those components should have interfaces with the transport network layer (Ibin Figure 1), through which they can collect and analyse the transport information according to the requirements of the given service. 7 Requirements 7.1 General requirements GEN-110: The MOCC can be installed on cent

48、ralized servers, or can be installed on multiple servers across the whole network. In any case, it should provide an interface to multimedia applications and services. The network information provided by the MOCC component should be accurate and reliable. GEN-120: Under the P2P application context,

49、according to the particular mechanism, the MOCC server should be able to be queried by the normal peers as well as by the P2P index servers. MOCCs should be suitable for different P2P systems and protocols, a general interface should be defined between MOCC and those applications. GEN-130: MOCCs should be able to process massive requests from the applications with reasonable and acceptable response time. Specific performance requirements shall be fulfilled. Those requirements may include, amongst others, response time, efficiency,
