Tutorial #1	Control Theory and Its Application to Network and Systems Management (VERANY 1 Room)
Instructor	Dr. Joseph Hellerstein, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, New York, USA

Abstract

Feedback control is central to network and systems management. It is employed to achieve service level objectives for metrics such as response times by taking resource actions (e.g., scheduling priorities and bandwidth allocations). Feedback is also used to optimize resource allocations for a workload mix.

While computing systems in general and network management in particular make broad use of feedback control, this has traditionally been done in an ad hoc manner. In contrast, mechanical, electrical, and other areas of engineering design systems using control theory, a well developed and systematic approach to the analysis and design of feedback systems. Control theory provides a way to determine if feedback loops are stable (e.g., avoid wild oscillations), accurate in their control (e.g., achieve the right resource allocation policies), and settle quickly to their steady state values (e.g., to adjust to workload dynamics). Unfortunately, existing books on control theory are not well suited to computer scientists both because of the examples (e.g., eletrical circuits, dash pots) and the emphasize on continuous time instead of discrete time systems.
This tutorial provides an introduction to control theory for computer scientists that is sufficient to do basic control analysis and design. The presentation is divided into three parts: elements of control theory, control analysis and design, and real world applications.
Elements of control theory is an introduction to key concepts. Included here are control goals (e.g., regulation, optimization, disturbance rejection); the control architecture (with examples from the Apache web server and the IBM Lotus Domino Server); and control objectives.
Control analysis and design has three subparts. The first provides an intuitive description of the z-transform that is sufficient for analyzing many control systems. Next, these concepts are applied to a spreadsheet model of the Lotus Domino Server and to results from a testbed of a production server. In the third section, basic controllers are discussed and various applications are explored.
The third part of the tutorial presents two applications of control theory to the IBM DB2 Universal Database Server. The first application regulates the impact on production work of high-overhead, long-running database utilities such as BACKUP, RESTORE, and REBALANCE. The second application of control theory is to automate the management of database memory pools.
The tutorial is intended for systems oriented computer practitioners with little experience withmathematical modeling. The only background assume is knowledge of the geometric series.

Tutorial #2	Peer-to-Peer Networking: Concepts, Applications and Management (VERANY 2 Room)
Instructor	Prof. Raouf Boutaba, University of Waterloo, Canada

Abstract

The past few years have witnessed the emergence of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems as a means to further facilitate the formation of communities of interest over the Internet in all areas of human life including technical/research, cultural, political, social, entertainment, etc. P2P technologies involve data storage, discovery and retrieval, overlay networks and application-level routing, security and reputation, measurements and management. This tutorial will give an appreciation of the issues and state of the art in Peer-to-Peer Networking. It will introduce the underlying concepts, present existing architectures, highlight the design requirements, discuss the research issues, compare existing approaches, and illustrate the concepts through case studies. The ultimate objective is to provide the tutorial attendees with an in-depth understanding of the issues inherent to the design, deployment and operation of large-scale P2P systems.

The tutorial is organized into three parts. In the first part, an up-to-date overview will be given about the status of IETF management standards. The network management related work items of the various active IETF working groups will be surveyed.

The second part of the tutorial focuses on monitoring. It shows how the SNMP framework is currently being used to retrieve management information for monitoring and fault isolation purposes. This part concludes with a discussion of recent SNMP related work in the IETF (e.g., session based security models).

The third part of the tutorial focuses on configuration management. After a discussion of the successes and failures of SNMP based configuration management approaches, XML-based approaches and in particular the network configuration protocol NETCONF will be discussed in some detail.

Tutorial #4	Autonomic Networking - Theory and Practice (VERANY 1 Room)
Instructor	John Strassner, Motorola Lab, USA

Abstract

A new genre of management applications is required to accommodate current and future uses of network services. The key to solving this problem is to realize that currently, network operation is divorced from how the business operates, and that current approaches don’t address this problem. This tutorial will examine how autonomic computing in general and autonomic networks in particular can be used to solve this problem. The foundation for this tutorial lies in work done in the TeleManagement Forum’s NGOSS program (particularly its Shared Information and Data model and its notion of contract-defined interfaces), along with current research in autonomic computing. After providing a brief primer on autonomic computing, this tutorial will concentrate on new research that focuses on implementing an autonomic network – an area that has been overlooked in current research. New enhancements on the OMG’s Model Driven Architecture initiative will be described that enable code to be generated from formal models. This will be supplemented with work on holistically combining process and policy management, and implementing this in a distributed service-oriented architecture. Real-life examples will be used to reinforce the contents of thistutorial. These principles are also applicable to Ubiquitous Networks.

Tutorial #5	Managing Network Security Policies: Firewall and IPSec/VPN (VERANY 2 Room)
Instructor	Prof. Ehab Al-Shaer, DePaul University, USA

Abstract

The importance of network security has been significantly increasing in the past few years. However, the increasing complexity of managing security polices particularly in enterprise networks poses real challenge for efficient security solutions. Network security perimeters such as Firewalls, IPSec gateways, Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems operate based on locally configured policies. Yet these policies are not necessarily autonomous and might interact between each other to construct a global network security policy.
In fact, security policies are configured not only in manual and ad hoc manner, but in isolation from each other due to different administrative roles or personnel.
