Tran, Hoang-Hai. "Auctions for competitive network providers." Rennes 1, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012REN1S014.
Full textPricing communication networks has a long history and a strong impact on the development of network technologies and communication services. In the literature, pricing strategies are used by network providers for congestion control and signaling, profit maximization and improved offered services to their customers. The evolution of inter-connected and selfish network providers requiring to forward traffic of others brings mechanism design issues. This thesis aims at defining economics incentives to encourage the ISPs to be cooperative in order to create a working and efficient network. We focus on the application of auction mechanism to solve the problem. In the literature, VCG auctions have been widely applied in resource allocation problems since they have the properties of individual rationality, incentive compatibility and efficiency (in terms of maximizing the net profits of all users). The most important drawback of VCG auctions is that it does not verify budget balance. We have shown that there are other issues forgotten in previous works and that it is not practical to apply VCG auctions to inter-domain pricing. In this thesis, we propose a distributed algorithm for allocating bandwidth over paths based on double-sided auction. The proposed pricing mechanism is strongly budget-balanced, individually rational, BGP-compatible, but relaxes incentive compatibility and efficiency. We also study the application of combinatorial double-sided auctions to competitive mobile wireless network operators. We formulate the vertical handover decision (VHD) strategies between competitive mobile operators and mobile users as a pricing problem. The proposed pricing schemes make use of signal-to-noise-interference (SINR), power transmission allocation, achievable data rates and monetary cost as decision criteria. Several combinatorial double-sided auctions are proposed to maximize the social welfare and to provide incentives to mobile users and mobile operators to be truth telling in terms of valuations or cost

In its attempt to sustain the growth expectations in an increasingly competitive market, Intel Corporation has invested in a number of new products and services, which differ significantly from its core semiconductor business. In 2000, Intel purchased 12 companies, amounting to an investment value of approximately 6 billion dollars. Associated with these various businesses ventures are new customers, new channels, different product attributes, uncertain demand profiles, and various service requirements, all of which have a direct impact on Intel's strategy for physical distribution. The existing logistics infrastructure is not equipped to optimally distribute the greater product mix and respond to the added complexities. The integration of third party logistics providers into its current distribution network may enhance Intel's ability to respond to the growing needs of the diversified product offerings. This thesis explores the decision to outsource logistics activities. It presents both the financial and non-financial, strategic and operational factors, which affect the decision. The decision framework presented is applied to the current business situation at Intel and an outsourcing strategy, which both addresses the current distribution challenges, and compliments the overall strategy of the corporation, is recommended. The description of the recommended distribution strategy is followed by a discussion of the complications associated with executing the strategy and guidelines for effective supplier management in a logistics context. The decision to outsource is just one of the decisions analyzed in the development of distribution strategies. Studying the strategies utilized by other organizations can enhance the competitiveness of a firm's logistics network. This paper also describes the methodology developed for exchanging logistics information with other companies, and based on the evidence from the specific study conducted by Intel's Planning and Logistics Group, discusses the critical success factors for future external studies.

Full textNätverks-RTK är en metod för relativ mätning med hjälp av GNSS som ger användare istora områden ett enkelt sätt att förbättra osäkerheterna i sina mätningar. I början av2000 talet då frågan om alternativa lösningar till stomnät på marken aktualiseradesuppfyllde inte tillgängliga nätverks-RTK-lösningar Trafikverkets (TrV) krav påmätningar när det gäller dess större och/eller mer komplexa projekt. Något som leddetill att konceptet projektbaserad nätverks-RTK infördes i Sverige av TrV i samarbetemed tjänsteleverantören SWEPOS 2004. Detta koncept förbättrar vanlig nätverks-RTKgenom att minska osäkerheterna ytterligare och öka tillförlitligheten inom ett mindreprojektområde. SWEPOS har sedan detta samarbete 2004 levererat projektbaseradenätverks-RTK tjänster till TrV.Marknaden är inte samma dag som den var 2004 och det finns fler verksammatjänsteleverantörer i Sverige. Detta examensarbete avser att ta reda på om denna nyamarknad innebär att det finns andra alternativ till SWEPOS med avseende på de kravTrV har på projektbaserad nätverks-RTK. Något som sker genom en teknisk jämförelseav de olika tjänsteleverantörernas mätosäkerheter och deras noggrannheter samt enjämförelse av deras omgivande infrastruktur och den subjektiva användarupplevelsen.Liknande studier har gjorts tidigare (Edwards et al., 2010) (Martin och MacGovern2012) (Saeidi, 2012), men aldrig i Sverige och med SWEPOS som ett avjämförelseobjekten. De har inte heller haft fokus på mätosäkerheter och noggrannheterunder projektbaserade nätverks-RTK förhållanden. De har alla haft samma slutsats: attdet inte finns några signifikanta skillnader mellan de jämförda tjänsteleverantörerna.För den tekniska jämförelsen har mätningar utförts på fyra platser: två inom ettbefintligt TrV projektområde, en i det ordinarie nätet och den sista utanför hela nätet,där den insamlade datamängden varierar för de olika platserna. Fem olika GNSSmottagareav olika märken användes för att göra mätningarna så allmänna som möjligt.Resultaten visar att det finns små osäkerhetsskillnader i höjd, men för att avgöra omdessa skillnader är signifikanta eller ej så skulle en fullständig korrelationsanalys av deolika tjänsteleverantörerna behövas, något som inte ryms inom detta arbete. Det verkarinte heller finnas några signifikanta skillnader i noggrannhet hos tjänsteleverantören.Några av platser med mindre mängd insamlad data uppvisar motsägande resultat, mendetta bedöms bero mer på andra faktorer än tjänsteleverantörer i sig, såsom mänskligpåverkan etc.Användarupplevelsen och tjänsteleverantörernas omgivande infrastruktur uppvisarstörre skillnader, där SWEPOS för tillfället har ett klart övertag. Detta tros bero påSWEPOS främst är en tjänsteleverantör av nätverks-RTK och därmed har merdedikerade resurser och personal, men de andra tjänsteleverantörerna även agerarleverantörer/försäljare av utrustning.En kombination av de två jämförelsedelarna leder till en mer generell slutsats att medalla tjänsteleverantörer i sina nuvarande tillstånd alternativt utan en eventuellomformulering av TrVs krav, är enbart SWEPOS ett alternativ som leverantör avprojektbaserad nätverks-RTK lösningar till TrV. Men detta är något som kan förändrasmed relativ snabbt beroende på om andra tjänsteleverantörerna avsätter mer resursereller om kraven formuleras om.

Diversos trabalhos na área de redes dinâmicas têm sido propostos na literatura com o objetivo de prover à arquitetura da Internet o suporte à mobilidade. O problema dessas redes instáveis na Internet consiste em oferecer um conjunto de mecanismo, tais como endereçamento, gerenciamento da informação e encaminhamento da informação, que suportem informação e entidade (Sistema Autônomo, Provedor de Serviços na Internet e Clientes) móveis. Nesse contexto, alguns trabalhos para arquitetura da Internet têm proposto uma maneira de separar a localização (atualmente o IP) e o nome identificador, devido ao forte relacionamento entre o IP e o nome. Em geral, eles propõem uma abordagem de roteamento na camada overlay para separar essas informações. Outros trabalhos acreditam que este desacoplamento não é suficiente para solucionar os problemas de mobilidade, desde que a dinamicidade gera muitas mensagens de controle e atualizações do vínculo entre o IP e o nome. Por essa razão, os pesquisadores também têm proposto novos modelos para gerenciar a camada overlay. Uma das contribuições deste trabalho é a proposta de uma solução para arquitetura da Internet denominada Stable Society que adota a abordagem de papéis. Um papel é uma unidade funcional que é utilizada para organizar a comunicação. Um importante diferencial da proposta é que além de desvincular o nome e a localização, ela também oferece soluções para os problemas relacionados a estruturação e manutenção da camada overlay. Além disso, este trabalho define quatro papéis: o mensageiro encaminha os dados dentro da sociedade; o guarda é a entidade mais estável para encaminhar mensagens entre as sociedades; o operário armazena informações; e o líder estrutura e gerencia a rede overlay. Reduzindo o escopo para a implementação desta dissertação de mestrado, o mensageiro e o guarda foram considerados como a camada de rede sem distinção de estabilidade, desde que o fornecimento de um mecanismo de gerenciamento do overlay de roteamento foi o objetivo do trabalho. Portanto, como prova do conceito apresentado pela proposta, os líderes e operários foram implementados, porque eles agem de maneira independente de tecnologia de acesso e são fundamentais para solucionar o problema da instabilidade nos processos de armazenamento e descoberta da informação. Como resultado, um novo algoritmo denominado Stable Society model over Distributes Hash Table (SSDHT) foi proposto. Além disso, este algoritmo foi comparado com outras soluções DHT (Chord). Os resultados mostraram que o SSDHT é um bom algoritmo, principalmente quando se aumenta a instabilidade (carga do tráfego, grau de mobilidade e tamanho da rede). Por exemplo, a taxa de mensagens entregue com sucesso foi acima de 90% quando a carga de tráfego, o grau de mobilidade e o tamanho da rede foram variados

The Internet is a network that consists of content providers and users connected to each other through the communication lines managed by network providers. Network neutrality rules are designed to protect independent content providers from unjust discrimination by network providers. This report explores the economic rationale for net neutrality rules, how the regulation should be enforced, and its potential effects on competition. The report finds that net neutrality encourages competition among content providers by subsidizing content provider access but concentrates the market for network providers by forcing network providers to compete primarily through price competition. It considers this to be a beneficial arrangement for economic growth, but observes that there is a potential for all sides of the market to be subsidized by advertiser fees. It also shows that despite the Federal Communications Commission's heavy involvement with network neutrality rules, these rules are actually based in a long history of antitrust regulation. It concludes, however, that the current regulatory environment is sufficient for enforcing net neutrality rules.

Full textA disparidade existente entre os prestadores da Rede Convencionada (RC) em vários indicadores inerentes aos serviços médicos prestados a clientes Multicare, dificulta uma melhor eficiência em todo o processo de monitorização de custos realizado pelo Gabinete de Atuariado e Controle (GAC). Este relatório baseia-se na segmentação da RC da Multicare em grupos de prestadores homogéneos, no âmbito da cobertura de Internamento, alinhando-se aos objetivos primordiais da área de estudos estatísticos do GAC. Para tal, recorre-se a uma técnica estatística denominada de Análise de Clusters (AC), permitindo aferir um conjunto de conclusões sobre o comportamento de cada um dos grupos formados. Foram recolhidas 23 720 autorizações de serviços médicos prestados a segurados com coberturas Managed Care (MC) ou mistas, que reportam para um conjunto de 49 prestadores. As variáveis utilizadas resultam da informação dos atos médicos prestados em cada um dos prestadores selecionados. Ao nível da AC foram utilizados dois métodos distintos, primeiramente um hierárquico para definir o número ótimo de clusters a reter e, seguidamente, um não hierárquico com o intuito de otimizar a solução obtida no método anterior. Os resultados alcançados demonstram que existem três agrupamentos de prestadores homogéneos, nos quais dos 49 prestadores selecionados, 36 foram alocados nos mesmos clusters por ambos os métodos. O cluster 1 apresenta uma elevada taxa de ocorrência de cirurgias e valores medianos nas restantes variáveis; o cluster 2 ilustra uma elevada taxa de cirurgias, inversamente ao número de clientes, à quantidade de autorizações em todos os códigos-macro e aos custos médios (por cliente, de atos não empacotados, de cirurgias e de todos os códigos-macro) que apresentam todos eles valores baixos; por último, no cluster 3 agruparam-se Unidades Hospitalares de grande relevância da RC da Multicare, espelhadas na sua generalidade por baixas taxas de cirurgias, elevado número de autorizações e custos médios também elevados.
The disparity in the conduct of the Network Providers on various indicators relating to medical services provided to the Multicare customers, hinders a better efficiency in all the process of costs motorization of the Gabinete de Actuariado e Control (GAC). This report is based in the segmentation of the Multicare's providers network in homogeneous groups of providers, under of the Internment's coverage, aligning to the primary objectives of the area of statistical studies of the GAC. For this, it was used a statistical technique named by Cluster Analysis and it allowed conclude about the behavior of the classified groups. It was collected 23 720 authorizations for medical services provided to insured coverage with MC or hybrid plans, that report for a set of 49 providers. The variables used are the result of the information regarding the medical acts provided for each of the selected providers. Regarding the Cluster Analysis it was used two different methods. The first one hierarchical to define the optimal number of clusters to retain, and then one non-hierarchical in order to optimize the solution obtained by the previously method. Results show that there are three homogeneous groups of providers, in which of the 49 providers, 36 were allocated in the same cluster by both methods. The cluster 1 has a high rate of surgeries and median values in the remaining variables. The cluster 2 shows a high rate of surgeries inversely to the number of customers, to the amount of permits in all macro-codes and to the average costs (per client, of acts not packaged, surgeries and all macro-codes). Finally, the cluster 3 include the Hospital Units of great relevance to the RC of Multicare, in general characterized by low rate of surgeries, high numbers of authorizations and average costs also high.

Does managed care send expectant mothers to hospitals they would choose even if their choice of hospital was not limited? I find that Medicaid managed care patients are redirected to hospitals that enrollees of more generous insurance payers with the same personal characteristics do not go to. However, Medicare managed care enrollees do not face an increased risk of having a cesarean delivery at the hospital they attend, which is interpreted as evidence that they are redirected to high quality hospitals

Full textThis thesis puts forward a new solution to provide the reliable network to the Internet Service Provider (ISP). This study mainly focuses on the ISPs network to provide reliability and the load balancing. It offers a guide line for the best reliable solution to the ISPs, individual organizations or other types of service providers which are engaged in providing reliable communications to their subscribers. These reliable services may be real time communications which include weather forecasts, tracking systems, online Internet protocol TV (IPTV) programs and many other ISPs services which are totally depend on the reliable network.
With the appearance and expansion of Internet subscribers all over the world, ISPs services are becoming more popular. The rapid increase of connection-demand and highly traffic network is the main reason behind the need to scale reliable network. To offer better solutions, a new theoretical and practical approach should be considered that can cover the reliable network.
The suggested network structure monitors the links, spreads the network traffic with multiple devices and takes a backup (redundant) link automatically when changes occur in the network topology. In order to support the redundancy, load balancing and reduce the failover time, the hot standby routing protocol (HSRP) is implemented on the suggested network. As we have analyzed that in any network, scalability bringing to raised the network traffic broadcast issue. Broadcast storms can be prevented by setting threshold values of traffic-filters. The threshold level helps to control broadcast traffic in networks.
With regard to suggested solutions, it is necessary to observe the limitations and advantages of the recommended reliable network structure. Therefore, this research will include the advantages and limitations of the techniques used to offer ISP services such as scalability, security and IPv6.

Le premier problème illustrant l'utilisation des NES est lié aux applications utilisant des serveurs dédiés. Nous avons montré expérimentalement l'impact positif en terme de charge globale d'un ordonnanceur combinant échéances d'exécution et un mécanisme de priorité. Cette première étude sur l'ordonnancement nous a conduit à nous intéresser à un autre facteur important lié à l'efficacité des NES, le déploiement des composants de l'environnement sur les ressources disponibles. Dans le cadre de NES hiérarchique nous avons notamment démontré que le déploiement optimal dans un cadre homogène est un Complete Spanning d-ary arbre. Dans le cas de ressources hétérogènes, le problème étant NP-complet, nous fournissons des heuristiques visant à fournir le meilleur arbre de diffusion des requêtes. Nous proposons un modèle mathématique afin d'analyser un déploiement existant et d'améliorer ce dernier par détection des goulots d'étranglement. Les algorithmes et heuristiques présentés dans cette thèse ont été validés expérimentalement en utilisant l'intergiciel DIET sur la plate-forme Grid'5000

Full textSince the 90ies a bunch of problems and flaws in the old Internet Protocol version four has occurred.The biggest problem is the extinction of addresses which will come soon, soon in the matter of theclassic “wolf is coming” matter, but as in the fairy tale the wolf will finally come. When this will happenis unknown, but not many believes it won’t. Carl-Henrik Swanberg CEO for Ericsson once said that year2020 there will be 50 billion mobile units connected to internet. Considering there is maximum 4 billionaddresses in IPv4 the needs for more addresses will be significant. The solution of this is the version sixof Internet Protocol released in middle of the 90ies. This thesis mentions a lot of the problems with theold version and tries to make a good explanation of the benefits and possibilities that lies within thenew. It also contains a larger amount of information on the protocols that lies within this, like newversion of OSPF, the extensions of BGPv4 called multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) and new things likenetwork discovery protocol (NDP). The later chapter is about the planning of an implementation atMälarenergi City Network and the implementation at the internet service provider MDFnet whichnowadays runs IPv6 in their core and office network.

Full textSeveral important factors are involved in the competitive dynamics of supply chains: namely the structural and relational characteristics. In this doctoral research we choose to use the relational register in order to understand the role of social networks in building coordination capacity within supply chains. The field of investigation is the Fourth Party Logistics (4PL), whose job is to design and orchestrate logistics systems without ownership of physical assets. To shed some light on this issue we engage three analytical frameworks: the inter-organizational management, the social networks paradigm and logistics services. The empirical approach was based on discourse analysis of people operating in 4PL companies. The results of our study highlight that we must rely on economical as well as social values, such as trust and interpersonal ties, in order to maintain and boost inter-organizational relationships. These social values facilitate 4PL's coordination within supply chains and legitimize its control

Service providers rely on the continuity of their service to sustain their businesses. While at first glance it may seem that service providers are not as dependent on their supply chain as product companies are, a closer look of some relevant systems shows that a stable and resilient supply chain is a key for both maintaining service and growing it. A wireless network provider which does not have spare parts in place to maintain existing cell sites will see an increase in outage duration and, thereby, customer churn. A cable/satellite service provider which does not have the equipment at the right place and in time to expand to a new market will see competitors capturing customers. In order to eliminate or at least mitigate these types of business risks for service providers, a transformation of the Time to Recovery (TTR) / Time to Survive (TTS) framework is shown to fit the service domain. TTR represents the time it takes for a supply chain system to recover from a disrupted supplier. TTS represents the time a supply chain system can continue to operate while its sources of supply are disrupted. The key metric which is introduced is value of service, which allows us to measure the actual lost value as a result of service disruptions.

Full textThe objective of this thesis is to design and implement a small scaleInternet Service Provider (ISP) for the NetCenter sub department atMälardalen University. The ISP is intended to give NetCenter a networkseparate from the University’s network, providing them with a moreflexible environment for lab purposes. This will give their students anopportunity to experience a larger backbone with Internet accessibility,which has not been previously available. At the same time it will place theteachers in control of the network in the NetCenter lab premises.The network is designed with a layered approach including an Internetaccess layer, a larger core segment and a distribution layer with aseparated lab network. It also incorporates both a public and a privateserver network, housing servers running e.g. Windows Active Directory,external DNS services, monitoring tools and logging applications. TheInternet access is achieved by peering with SUNET providing a full BGPfeed.This thesis report presents methods, implementations and results involvedin successfully creating the NetCenter ISP as both a lab network and anInternet provider with a few inevitable shortcomings; the most prominentbeing an incomplete Windows Domain setup.

The internet network and e- commerce become more and more popular currently. Various applications of the network and services already become the indispensable important tools to most enterprises, such as the application of e mail , to establish the entry website of company, installing server to provide employees with information sharing, etc.. As the internet network providing the convenience and business opportunity , as well as e commerce be further developed, all of such IT applications created unbelievable values to enterprises. However, the security of the internet network becomes an endless issues. The external attacks , such as the electronic virus , the worm, special Lip river depends on the hobbyhorse ( Trojan Horse), procedure of back door, spy''s software, the network hacker''s depend event and activities have never been stopped. From which, the enterprises suffered with great losses. Therefore, the IT people of company are requested to develop and installed a suitable protection system to guarantee the security of company information assets. The case company specified in my paper is the biggest ISP in Taiwan. It owns more than three millions of customers. The company also provides its over 20,000 staffs with internal network and management network equipment for conducting routine jobs. The network and information security concerns are more complicated than that of regular commercial companies. This research will discuss the management & Network Security planning of this company from the structure and system views. Not only to create potential benefit of rigid information Security for existing network, but also to offer IT planning people with valuable reference as they are performing the related works.
