Energy-efficient traffic scheduling algorithm for SDN data center network based on multi-layer virtual topology
An energy-efficient traffic scheduling algorithm based on multiple layers of virtual sub-topologies is provided. First, a mathematical optimization model for an energy-efficient traffic scheduling problem is established, to minimize network energy consumption while ensuring the capability of bearing all network data flows. Then, the mathematical optimization model is resolved using an energy-efficient traffic scheduling algorithm based on a multi-layer virtual topology, to obtain an energy-efficient scheduling scheme of the data flows. The virtual topology and switch ports in an upper layer are made dormant to save energy. The method can dynamically adjust the working state of the virtual sub-topology in the upper layer according to current link utilization. A path with a minimum number of hops and lowest maximum link utilization can be found in the booted sub-topology, to route the data flow, solving the problem that a “rich-connection” data center network has low energy resource utilization at low load.
