Is Internet OK? 1 Too Complicated (hard to stack new functionalities any more) - Many functionalities were stacked up over original Internet. - New layers (ex. MPLS, IPSEC, etc.) were inserted between existing layers. 2 How to struggle against rapid increase of information flow? - Total traffic of domestic broadband subscribers = 721.7Gbps (as of May 2007) 1.4 times growth in one year, 1.7 times growth in two years (published by MIC in Aug 22, 2007) Forecast: Tera bps in 2008, Peta bps in 2020 3 Increased outside cost of security problem Total loss by SPAM mail in Japan = USD 5 billion (US Ferris Research). Personal Information Leakage in Japan: 22 million victims, JPY 457 billion of damages in 2006 (NPO JNSA). Information Security market is constantly expanding, forecasted as JPY 800 billion in 2011 (Fuji Chimera Research). Attacks to enterprise are also increasing. 4 Rapid increase of power consumption by network equipments Trial calculation of power consumption by big router: Cisco CRS-1 = 15.5KW, 1.2Tbps / shelf 800 shelves = 12,400KW, 960Tbps. That is, Peta-bps class router = 10,000KW corresponding to a nuclear power station! 5 Possible to handle various ubiquitous applications?
