PROJECT TITLE :

A Survey on Internet Multipath Routing and Provisioning

ABSTRACT:

Utilizing the dormant path diversity through multipath routing in the Internet to achieve finish users—thereby fulfilling their QoS necessities—is very logical. While offering higher resource utilization, better reliability, and typically even abundant better quality of experience (QoE), multipath routing and provisioning was shown to assist network and knowledge center operators achieve traffic engineering in the form of load balancing. During this survey, we first highlight the benefits and basic Internet multipath routing components. We take a prime-down approach and review various multipath protocols, from application to link and physical layers, operating at different elements of the Internet. We have a tendency to conjointly describe the mathematical foundations of the multipath operation, as well as highlight the issues and challenges per reliable data delivery, buffering, and security in deploying multipath provisioning in the Internet. We have a tendency to compare the benefits and disadvantages of these protocols operating at completely different Internet layers and discuss open problems and challenges.
