家庭网络变得越来越复杂，许多家庭设备（个人电脑、平板电脑、电话、媒体网关、智能电视）和不同的用户应用程序（浏览、视频流、点对点、VoIP、游戏）共享单个宽带接入链路。在当今的架构中，流量流会尽力争夺带宽，从而导致用户体验质量较差。在本文中，我们利用软件定义网络 (SDN) 的新兴范例，使 ISP 能够向用户公开一些控件，以管理家庭中特定设备和应用程序的服务质量。我们的贡献是开发一种架构和界面，用于将此类控制权委托给用户，并通过在实验室测试台上使用三个代表性应用程序进行实验来证明其价值：视频、网络浏览和大量下载。
Home networks are becoming increasingly complex, with many household devices (PCs tablets, phones, media gateways, smart TVs) and diverse user applications (browsing, video streaming, peer-to-peer, VoIP, gaming) sharing the single broadband access link. In today's architecture the traffic streams compete for bandwidth on a best-effort basis, resulting in poor quality of experience for users. In this paper, we leverage the emerging paradigm of software defined networking (SDN) to enable the ISP to expose some controls to the users to manage service quality for specific devices and applications in their household. Our contributions are to develop an architecture and interface for delegation of such control to the user, and to demonstrate its value via experiments in a laboratory test-bed using three representative applications: video, web-browsing, and large downloads.
