7 Networked Critical Infrastructure A modern state has a network of control systems for the measurement and change of the infrastructure state for safe, uninterrupted, and efficient delivery of utilities (electricity, water), of services (telecommunication, health, transportation, banking), and of essential commodity (gas, oil) A network of distributed sensors for collecting data and software for extracting and interpreting information to raise the security of the critical infrastructure 7

10 Service-oriented view of computer networks A computer network provides a communication service, i.e. enables the exchange of information between computers (and their users) that are located at various geographical locations Communication service is ubiquitous and an essential infrastructure of modern society Comparable in value with transportation, water, electricity, Because there are no limits to information, networking enables further services For example the telephone network enables fax, voic , electronic banking,, Computer networks enable , information search, electronic commerce, Value of the network depends on its size: the larger, the better What s the use of if only a few people use it? 10
11 Characteristics of the communicated information Non-interactive: Text, pictures, music, video Two sub-categories: streaming or not» jitter is most important for streaming multimedia Interactive: Teleconferencing, videoconferencing, instant msg/chating Size is an important factor Compression (lossy/lossless) can help, opens up a computation vs communication trade-off Worst case: Musicians playing instruments together through the network Requires low latency, high-throughput (for quality sound), low jitter 11
12 Characteristics of the communication services Connection-oriented (think telephone) Receiver is active while information is transmitted Must establish connection, before any data is transmitted Connectionless (think [e]mail) Data transmission can start earlier Other service characteristics: Confirmed unconfirmed delivery Quality of service characteristics:» Performance (delay, throughput, delay-variation )» Error rate, security, 12
13 Approaches to Network Design Networks provide connectivity between users at the network edge through a transmission system, the network core Using various types of physical media (wires, radio, optical fibre, etc.) and devices (switches, routers, multiplexers, etc.) Network core equipment is fundamentally different to equipment at the network edge t 0 t 1 Network Cost-effective design necessary to meet user requirements Networks usually designed to carry specific types of information Voice, TV, bits, characters etc. 13
14 The N 2 Problem Pairwise interconnections would require N*(N-1) links or a central switching access network, and just N access links Networks consist of point-to-point links interconnected by switches for a multi-hop path, routing decides which path to take at a switch forwarding actually moves the data in the direction decided 14
15 Larger Networks Connections between local communities use trunks between local switches Multiplexers concentrate the traffic over the more expensive line Demultiplexers separate out the individual parts of the traffic for distribution Networks are hierarchical: Metropolitan networks interconnect access networks Regional networks connect metropolitan networks National networks, international networks etc. using backbone networks a b A α c A d β γ Metropolitan National 15
16 Internetworks net 1 G G net 3 G G net 5 G = gateway net 2 G net 4 G Networks of networks The Internet Protocol (IP) was developed to provide connectionless transfer of packets across an internet The component networks are interconnected by packets switches called gateways or routers, which direct the transfer of packets IP provides a best-effort service i.e. it does its best to deliver a packet, but it does not guarantee successful delivery 16
17 Addressing Addressing required to identify source and destination endpoints Hierarchical addressing uses common prefixes for end-points in the same geographical areas» Facilitates routing» As in a postal address: country, county, town, district, street, number; the Post Office batches mail for countries and for towns, districts, streets etc. Hierarchical addressing in Wide Area Networks e.g. the Internet» Also facilitates routing Flat addressing in Local Area Networks e.g. ethernets» Adequate for the typically small number of local area end-points 17
18 Switching Circuit-switching In early communication networks, switching was performed at the electrical signal level, creating a real circuit end to end In modern digital transmission media, circuit-switching means allocation of dedicated resources (e.g. a share of a link s transmission capacity) end to end Switches forward information one bit at a time (in theory) Packet/message switching Switches store whole packet and then forward it using the full link transmission capacity Connectionless or datagram» Each packet/message routed independently of all other packets Virtual circuit» A route set up through switches and links in the network» All subsequent packets forwarded along the same path 18
19 Factors in Communication Network Evolution Technology, Regulation, Markets, Standards Will it inter-operate? Technology Can it be built? Standards Is it allowed? Regulation Market Will it sell? Availability of a technology does not mean it will sell Never very clear beforehand whether a market exists for a product or service The move away from monopoly telecomms suppliers makes standards essential 19
20 Computer network uses Resource sharing Printers, disks, specialised hardware, Information sharing Database access Human communication , Voice-over-IP, file-sharing (pictures, music, ) Commerce Shopping on-line, banking, Entertainment Movies, games Remote access/monitoring/working Users of the network Computers Humans: experts, general public 20
21 Technology Limited by fundamental physical laws In most cases substantial opportunities for improvement remain Key technologies Transmission systems Computer processing capacity (Moore s Law) Cumulative Experience Professional Manager Entrepreneur Technical Expert Multiple technologies overlap Time 21
22 Regulation Telecomms services have always been government regulated» until very recently as state monopolies Deregulation and privatisation of monopolies» more competition in long distance telecomms» cable television and satellite broadcasting competition to terrestrial Radio spectrum allocation» has always been closely controlled nationally and internationally» cellular telephone frequencies, 900MHz and 1800 MHz allocations» 3G spectrum auctions Office of Communications (Ofcom) in the UK» promoting consumer interest» maintaining effective competition» ensuring services to meet all reasonable demands e.g. emergency services, directory information, rural services etc. 22
23 Market Usefulness of a service often depends on there being a critical mass of subscribers e.g. , SMS Economies of scale often vital to sustain services and develop new ones» cable and satellite TV» mobile phones Entrepreneurs always searching for the next Killer App» SMS messaging on mobile phones a success»wap a failure 23
24 Standards Agreements, industry-wide, with national and international scope Ensure interoperability of equipment made by different vendors» competition reduces prices Physical standards such as plugs and sockets e.g. USB Usage standards such as communications protocols» whether implemented by software or hardware Can arise initially as de facto standards from a successful product» e.g. ethernet» internationally standardised later or developed by subcommittees of standards bodies» Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)» Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)» International Telecommunications Union (ITU)» International Standards Organisation (ISO) 24
