Cooperative self-optimisation of network protocol parameters at runtime

Network protocols are deployed in highly dynamic environments, but typically configured with a static setup of configurations. The Organic Network Control system (ONC) has been developed to alter protocol configurations at runtime. ONC is equipped with online learning capabilities and safety considerations. This paper presents a first TCP-based study on how this approach can be applied to end-to-end protocols and simultaneously alleviating the drawbacks of a simulation-based optimisation procedure. The paper explains the developed algorithm and demonstrates the benefit of the solution in an Omnet++ scenario.
