With emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things and 5G, generated data grows enormously. Hence, Data Center Networks (DCNs) have an important duty to store and process a significant amount of data, which makes them a critical component of the network. To meet the massive amount of traffic demands, wired DCNs need to deploy large numbers of servers and power-hungry switches, and huge lengths of wires. An enormous increase in the usage of cables causes high cabling complexity and cost while deploying large numbers of servers and power-hungry switches causes high-level power consumption. To address these problems, Wireless DCNs (WDCNs) have emerged. WDCNs utilize the bandwidth efficiently thanks to their adaptation ability to the dynamically changing conditions and decrease high cost, cabling complexity, and power consumption problems with the help of their wireless structure. WDCNs are also a solution to the oversubscription problem. However, establishing reliable communication, satisfying changing traffic demands dynamically, and increasing throughput are challenges of WDCNs that need to be emphasized. In this work, we introduce a WDCN using internationally available 60 GHz bands and aim to handle the dynamic traffic demands in the WDCN and maximize the throughput. To achieve it, we jointly deploy virtual machines (i.e., services) into physical machines (i.e., servers) considering traffic demand between virtual machines and the capacity of physical machines and establish wireless links between two transceivers deployed on different racks. To maximize throughput in the WDCN, we formulate a mixed-integer programming (MIP) problem. We also propose two heuristics, named Heuristic for Wireless Link and Service Deployment (HWSD) and Improved Heuristic for Wireless Link and Service Deployment (I-HWSD) to decrease the time it takes to solve the MIP problem with an optimization solver. These two heuristics approach the optimal solution by about 20% with a significant improvement in the time performance and adapt to dynamically changing traffic demands. Unlike top-of-rack (ToR)-to-ToR WDCN, deploying virtual machines makes a significant contribution to the total traffic demand we can complete in WDCN.

BIG DATA FOR INDUSTRY 4.0: A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK Gökalp, Mert Onuralp; Kayabay, Kerem; Eren, Pekin Erhan; Koçyiğit, Altan (2016-12-17) Exponential growth in data volume originating from Internet of Things sources and information services drives the industry to develop new models and distributed tools to handle big data. In order to achieve strategic advantages, effective use of these tools and integrating results to their business processes are critical for enterprises. While there is an abundance of tools available in the market, they are underutilized by organizations due to their complexities. Deployment and usage of big data analysis t...
Joint Virtual Machine Embedding and Wireless Data Center Topology Management Butun, Beyza; Onur, Ertan (2021-01-01) © 2021 IFIP.Data Center Networks (DCNs) have become critical infrastructures with the enormous increase in the amount of data generated. This increase introduces some problems in DCNs such as high cabling complexity, high-level power consumption, low space utilization, and oversubscription. Wireless DCNs (WDCNs) address these problems by decreasing cabling complexity and power consumption and increasing space utilization thanks to their incorporation of wireless communication technologies. Moreover, with it...

Explainable Security in SDN-Based IoT Networks Sarica, Alper Kaan; Angın, Pelin (2020-12-01) The significant advances in wireless networks in the past decade have made a variety of Internet of Things (IoT) use cases possible, greatly facilitating many operations in our daily lives. IoT is only expected to grow with 5G and beyond networks, which will primarily rely on software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization for achieving the promised quality of service. The prevalence of IoT and the large attack surface that it has created calls for SDN-based intelligent security solut...
Network density estimators and density-aware wireless networks Eroğlu, Alperen; Onur, Ertan; Department of Computer Engineering (2020-11) New network architectures and communication technologies continue to emerge to meet rapidly increasing and changing user demands requiring continuous connectivity and high data rate transmissions. These ubiquitous infrastructures result in a paradigm shift in mobile communications with the advent of mobile robots equipped with sensors, unmanned aerial vehicles, and mobile small-cells, which makes the future networks highly dynamic. This dynamism poses unpredictable variations in the network density causing ...
