Application architectures
Client-server
Peer-to-peer (P2P)
Hybrid of client-server and P2P


Client-server architecture
server:
 always-on host
 permanent IP address
 server farms for
scaling
clients:
client/server
 communicate with server
 may be intermittently
(không liên tục)connected
 may have dynamic IP
addresses
 do not communicate
directly with each other

Pure P2P architecture
no always-on server
Arbitrary(bất kỳ) end
systems directly peer-peer
communicate
peers are intermittently
connected and change IP
addresses

Highly scalable(có thể thay

to manage

Hybrid of client-server and P2P
Skype
 voice-over-IP P2P application
 centralized server: finding address of remote
party(thuê bao):
 client-client connection: direct (not through
server)
Instant messaging
 chatting between two users is P2P
 centralized service: client presence
detection/location
• user registers its IP address with central
server when it comes online
• user contacts central server to find IP
addresses of buddies(bạn thân)

What transport service does an app need?
Data loss Throughput
some apps (e.g., audio) can some apps (e.g.,
tolerate some loss multimedia) require
other apps (e.g., file minimum amount of
transfer, telnet) require throughput to be
100% reliable data “effective”
transfer other apps (“elastic apps”)
Timing make use of whatever
some apps (e.g., throughput they get
Internet telephony,

Transport service requirements of common apps

Application Data loss Throughput Time Sensitive

file transfer no loss elastic no
e-mail no loss elastic no
Web documents no loss elastic no
real-time audio/video loss-tolerant audio: 5kbps-1Mbps yes, 100’s msec

Web and HTTP
First some jargon
Web page consists of objects
Object can be HTML file, JPEG image, Java
applet, audio file,…
Web page consists of base HTML-file which
includes several referenced objects
Each object is addressable by a URL
Example URL:
www.someschool.edu/someDept/pic.gif

host name path name

HTTP overview (continued)
Uses TCP: HTTP is “stateless”
client initiates TCP server maintains no
connection (creates socket) information about
to server, port 80 past client requests
server accepts TCP
connection from client aside
Protocols that maintain “state”
HTTP messages (application- are complex!
layer protocol messages) past history (state) must be
exchanged between browser maintained
(HTTP client) and Web
if server/client crashes(bị
server (HTTP server)
hỏng), their views of “state”
TCP connection closed may be inconsistent(không
vững ), must be
reconciled(điều hòa)

HTTP connections
Nonpersistent HTTP Persistent HTTP
At most one object is Multiple objects can
sent over a TCP be sent over single
connection. TCP connection
between client and
server.


Nonpersistent HTTP
(contains text,
Suppose user enters URL references to 10
www.someSchool.edu/someDepartment/home.index jpeg images)

1a. HTTP client initiates TCP
connection to HTTP server
(process) at
1b. HTTP server at host
www.someSchool.edu waiting
www.someSchool.edu on port 80
for TCP connection at port 80.
“accepts” connection,
notifying client
2. HTTP client sends HTTP
request message (containing
URL) into TCP connection 3. HTTP server receives request
socket. Message indicates message, forms response
that client wants object message containing requested
someDepartment/home.index object, and sends message
into its socket

time

Nonpersistent HTTP (cont.)

4. HTTP server closes TCP
connection.
5. HTTP client receives response
message containing html file,
displays html. Parsing html
file, finds 10 referenced jpeg
objects
time 6. Steps 1-5 repeated for each
of 10 jpeg objects


Non-Persistent HTTP: Response time
Definition of RTT: time for
a small packet to travel
from client to server
and back. initiate TCP
connection
Response time: RTT
one RTT to initiate TCP request
file
connection time to
RTT
transmit
one RTT for HTTP file
request and first few file
received
bytes of HTTP response
to return time time
file transmission time
total = 2RTT+transmit time

Persistent HTTP

Nonpersistent HTTP issues: Persistent HTTP
requires 2 RTTs per object server leaves connection
OS overhead for each TCP open after sending
connection response
browsers often open parallel subsequent HTTP messages
TCP connections to fetch between same
referenced objects client/server sent over
open connection
client sends requests as
soon as it encounters a
referenced object
as little as one RTT for all
the referenced objects


HTTP request message

two types of HTTP messages: request, response
HTTP request message:
 ASCII (human-readable format)

request line
(GET, POST, GET /somedir/page.html HTTP/1.1
HEAD commands) Host: www.someschool.edu
User-agent: Mozilla/4.0
header Connection: close
lines Accept-language:fr

Carriage return,
(extra carriage return, line feed)
line feed
indicates end
of message

HTTP request message: general format


Uploading form input
Post method:
Web page often
includes form input URL method:
Input is uploaded to Uses GET method
server in entity body Input is uploaded in
URL field of request
line:

www.somesite.com/animalsearch?monkeys&banana


Method types
HTTP/1.0 HTTP/1.1
GET GET, POST, HEAD
POST PUT
HEAD  uploads file in entity
body to path specified
 asks server to leave
in URL field
requested object out of
response DELETE
 deletes file specified in
the URL field


HTTP response message
status line
(protocol
status code HTTP/1.1 200 OK
status phrase) Connection close
Date: Thu, 06 Aug 1998 12:00:15 GMT
header Server: Apache/1.3.0 (Unix)

HTML file


HTTP response status codes
In first line in server->client response message.
A few sample codes:
200 OK
 request succeeded, requested object later in this message
301 Moved Permanently
 requested object moved, new location specified later in
this message (Location:)
400 Bad Request
 request message not understood by server
404 Not Found
 requested document not found on this server
505 HTTP Version Not Supported

Trying out HTTP (client side) for yourself

1. Telnet to your favorite Web server:
telnet cis.poly.edu 80 Opens TCP connection to port 80
(default HTTP server port) at cis.poly.edu.
Anything typed in sent
to port 80 at cis.poly.edu

2. Type in a GET HTTP request:
GET /~ross/ HTTP/1.1 By typing this in (hit carriage
Host: cis.poly.edu return twice), you send
this minimal (but complete)
GET request to HTTP server

How to keep “state”:
protocol endpoints: maintain state
at sender/receiver over multiple
transactions
cookies: http messages carry state

More about Web caching
cache acts as both Why Web caching?
client and server reduce response time
typically cache is for client request
installed by ISP reduce traffic on an
(university, company, institution’s access
residential ISP) link.
Internet dense with
caches: enables “poor”
content providers to
effectively deliver
content (but so does
P2P file sharing)

Caching example
origin
Assumptions servers
average object size = 100,000
public
bits Internet
avg. request rate from
institution’s browsers to
origin servers = 15/sec
1.5 Mbps
delay from institutional router access link
to any origin server and back
institutional
to router = 2 sec network
10 Mbps LAN
Consequences
utilization on LAN = 15%
utilization on access link = 100%
institutional
total delay = Internet delay + cache
access delay + LAN delay
= 2 sec + minutes + milliseconds

Caching example (cont)
origin
possible solution servers
increase bandwidth of access
public
link to, say, 10 Mbps Internet
consequence
utilization on LAN = 15%
utilization on access link = 15% 10 Mbps
Total delay = Internet delay + access link
access delay + LAN delay institutional
= 2 sec + msecs + msecs network
10 Mbps LAN

1.5 Mbps
60% requests satisfied by access link
origin server
utilization of access link institutional
reduced to 60%, resulting in network
10 Mbps LAN
negligible delays (say 10

Electronic Mail: SMTP [RFC 2821]

uses TCP to reliably transfer email message from client
to server, port 25
direct transfer: sending server to receiving server
three phases of transfer
 handshaking (greeting)
 transfer of messages
 closure

command/response interaction
 commands: ASCII text
 response: status code and phrase

messages must be in 7-bit ASCII


Scenario: Alice sends message to Bob
1) Alice uses UA to compose 4) SMTP client sends Alice’s
message and “to” message over the TCP
bob@someschool.edu connection
2) Alice’s UA sends message 5) Bob’s mail server places the
to her mail server; message message in Bob’s mailbox
placed in message queue 6) Bob invokes his user agent
3) Client side of SMTP opens to read message
TCP connection with Bob’s
mail server

1 mail
mail
server user
user server
2 agent

4 5


Sample SMTP interaction
S: 220 hamburger.edu
C: HELO crepes.fr
S: 250 Hello crepes.fr, pleased to meet you
C: MAIL FROM: <alice@crepes.fr>
S: 250 alice@crepes.fr... Sender ok
C: RCPT TO: <bob@hamburger.edu>
S: 250 bob@hamburger.edu ... Recipient ok
C: DATA
S: 354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
C: Do you like ketchup?
C: How about pickles?
C: .
S: 250 Message accepted for delivery
C: QUIT
S: 221 hamburger.edu closing connection


Try SMTP interaction for yourself:

telnet servername 25
see 220 reply from server
enter HELO, MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, DATA, QUIT
commands
above lets you send email without using email client
(reader)


SMTP: final words
SMTP uses persistent Comparison with HTTP:
connections
HTTP: pull
SMTP requires message

bit ASCII
both have ASCII
SMTP server uses command/response
CRLF.CRLF to determine interaction, status codes
end of message
HTTP: each object
encapsulated in its own

 SSN, name, passport # distributed database
implemented in hierarchy of
Internet hosts, routers:
many name servers
 IP address (32 bit) -
application-layer protocol

DNS: Root name servers
contacted by local name server that can not resolve name
root name server:
 contacts authoritative name server if name mapping not known
 gets mapping
 returns mapping to local name server

TLD and Authoritative Servers
Top-level domain (TLD) servers:
 responsible for com, org, net, edu, etc, and all
top-level country domains uk, fr, ca, jp.
 Network Solutions maintains servers for com TLD
 Educause for edu TLD

Authoritative DNS servers:
 organization’s DNS servers, providing
authoritative hostname to IP mappings for
organization’s servers (e.g., Web, mail).
 can be maintained by organization or service
provider


Local Name Server
does not strictly belong to hierarchy
each ISP (residential ISP, company,
university) has one.
 also called “default name server”
when host makes DNS query, query is sent
to its local DNS server
 acts as proxy, forwards query into hierarchy


DNS name root DNS server

gaia.cs.umass.edu


DNS: caching and updating records
once (any) name server learns mapping, it caches
mapping
 cache entries timeout (disappear) after some
time
 TLD servers typically cached in local name
servers
• Thus root name servers not often visited
update/notify mechanisms under design by IETF
 RFC 2136
 http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/dnsind-charter.html


DNS records
DNS: distributed db storing resource records (RR)
RR format: (name, value, type, ttl)

Type=A Type=CNAME
 name is hostname  name is alias name for some
 value is IP address “canonical” (the real) name
www.ibm.com is really
Type=NS
servereast.backup2.ibm.com
 name is domain (e.g.
 value is canonical name
foo.com)
 value is hostname of Type=MX
authoritative name  value is name of mailserver
server for this domain
associated with name


DNS protocol, messages
DNS protocol : query and reply messages, both with
same message format

msg header
identification: 16 bit #
for query, reply to query
uses same #
flags:
 query or reply
 recursion desired
 recursion available
 reply is authoritative

Inserting records into DNS
example: new startup “Network Utopia”
register name networkuptopia.com at DNS registrar
(e.g., Network Solutions)
 provide names, IP addresses of authoritative name server
(primary and secondary)
 registrar inserts two RRs into com TLD server:

(networkutopia.com, dns1.networkutopia.com, NS)
(dns1.networkutopia.com, 212.212.212.1, A)

create authoritative server Type A record for
www.networkuptopia.com; Type MX record for
networkutopia.com

Three topics:
 File distribution
 Searching for information
 Case Study: Skype


File Distribution: Server-Client vs P2P
Question : How much time to distribute file
from one server to N peers?
us: server upload
Server
bandwidth
ui: peer i upload
u1 d1 u2 bandwidth
us d2
di: peer i download
File, size F bandwidth
dN
Network (with
uN abundant bandwidth)


File distribution time: server-client
Server
server sequentially F u1 d1 u2
sends N copies: us d2

 NF/us time dN Network (with
abundant bandwidth)
client i takes F/di uN

time to download

Time to distribute F
to N clients using = max { NF/us, F/min(di) }
= dcs
i
client/server approach
increases linearly in N
(for large N) 2: Application Layer 78

File distribution time: P2P
Server
server must send one F u1 d1 u2
copy: F/us time us d2

client i takes F/di time dN Network (with
to download abundant bandwidth)
uN
NF bits must be
downloaded (aggregate)
fastest possible upload rate: us + Σui

dP2P = max { F/us, F/min(di) , NF/(us + Σui) }
i

Server-client vs. P2P: example
Client upload rate = u, F/u = 1 hour, us = 10u, dmin ≥ us

File distribution: BitTorrent

participating in torrent peers exchanging
chunks of a file

of peers

trading
chunks

peer


BitTorrent (1)
file divided into 256KB chunks.
peer joining torrent:
 has no chunks, but will accumulate them over time
 registers with tracker to get list of peers,
connects to subset of peers (“neighbors”)
while downloading, peer uploads chunks to other
peers.
peers may come and go
once peer has entire file, it may (selfishly) leave or
(altruistically) remain

BitTorrent (2) Sending Chunks: tit-for-tat
Pulling Chunks Alice sends chunks to four
neighbors currently
at any given time, sending her chunks at the
different peers have highest rate
different subsets of
 re-evaluate top 4 every
file chunks
10 secs
periodically, a peer
(Alice) asks each every 30 secs: randomly
neighbor for list of select another peer,
chunks that they have. starts sending chunks
 newly chosen peer may
Alice sends requests
for her missing chunks join top 4
 “optimistically unchoke”
 rarest first


BitTorrent: Tit-for-tat
(1) Alice “optimistically unchokes” Bob
(2) Alice becomes one of Bob’s top-four providers; Bob reciprocates
(3) Bob becomes one of Alice’s top-four providers

With higher upload rate,
can find better trading
partners & get file faster!

Distributed Hash Table (DHT)
DHT = distributed P2P database
Database has (key, value) pairs;
 key: ss number; value: human name
 key: content type; value: IP address

Peers query DB with key
 DB returns values that match the key
Peers can also insert (key, value) peers

DHT Identifiers
Assign integer identifier to each peer in range
[0,2n-1].
 Each identifier can be represented by n bits.
Require each key to be an integer in same range.
To get integer keys, hash original key.
 eg, key = h(“Led Zeppelin IV”)
 This is why they call it a distributed “hash” table

How to assign keys to peers?
Central issue:
 Assigning (key, value) pairs to peers.
Rule: assign key to the peer that has the
closest ID.
Convention in lecture: closest is the
immediate successor of the key.
Ex: n=4; peers: 1,3,4,5,8,10,12,14;
 key = 13, then successor peer = 14
 key = 15, then successor peer = 1

Each peer keeps track of IP addresses of predecessor,

Reduced from 6 to 2 messages.
Possible to design shortcuts so O(log N) neighbors, O(log
N) messages in query

Peer Churn
1
•To handle peer churn, require

3 each peer to know the IP address
15
of its two successors.
• Each peer periodically pings its
4
two successors to see if they
12 are still alive.
5
10
8
Peer 5 abruptly leaves
Peer 4 detects; makes 8 its immediate successor;
asks 8 who its immediate successor is; makes 8’s
immediate successor its second successor.
What if peer 13 wants to join?

P2P Case study: Skype
Skype clients (SC)
inherently P2P: pairs
of users communicate.
proprietary Skype
application-layer login server Supernode
protocol (inferred via (SN)
reverse engineering)
hierarchical overlay
with SNs
Index maps usernames
to IP addresses;
distributed over SNs


Peers as relays
Problem when both
Alice and Bob are
behind “NATs”.
 NAT prevents an outside
peer from initiating a call
to insider peer
Solution:
 Using Alice’s and Bob’s
SNs, Relay is chosen
 Each peer initiates
session with relay.
 Peers can now
communicate through
NATs via relay

Socket programming
Goal: learn how to build client/server application that
communicate using sockets

Socket API socket
introduced in BSD4.1 UNIX,
a host-local,
1981
application-created,
explicitly created, used, OS-controlled interface
released by apps (a “door”) into which
client/server paradigm application process can
two types of transport both send and
service via socket API: receive messages to/from
 unreliable datagram another application
process
 reliable, byte stream-
oriented


Socket-programming using TCP
Socket: a door between application process and end-
end-transport protocol (UCP or TCP)
TCP service: reliable transfer of bytes from one
process to another

Socket programming with TCP
Client must contact server When contacted by client,
server process must first server TCP creates new

server must have created communicate with client
socket (door) that  allows server to talk with
welcomes client’s contact multiple clients
 source port numbers
Client contacts server by:
used to distinguish
creating client-local TCP clients (more in Chap 3)
socket
specifying IP address, port application viewpoint
number of server process
TCP provides reliable, in-order
When client creates transfer of bytes (“pipe”)
socket: client TCP between client and server
establishes connection to
server TCP

Client/server socket interaction: TCP
Server (running on hostid) Client
create socket,
port=x, for
incoming request:
welcomeSocket =
ServerSocket()

TCP create socket,
wait for incoming

connectionSocket = clientSocket =
welcomeSocket.accept() Socket()

Socket programming with TCP
Example client-server app:
1) client reads line from
standard input (inFromUser
stream) , sends to server via
socket (outToServer
stream)
2) server reads line from socket
3) server converts line to
uppercase, sends back to
client
4) client reads, prints modified
line from socket
(inFromServer stream)


Example: Java client (TCP)
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class TCPClient {

public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception
{
String sentence;
String modifiedSentence;
Create
input stream BufferedReader inFromUser =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
Create
client socket, Socket clientSocket = new Socket("hostname", 6789);
connect to server
Create DataOutputStream outToServer =
output stream new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
attached to socket

Example: Java client (TCP), cont.

Create BufferedReader inFromServer =
input stream new BufferedReader(new
attached to socket InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));

sentence = inFromUser.readLine();
Send line
to server outToServer.writeBytes(sentence + 'n');

Read line modifiedSentence = inFromServer.readLine();
from server
System.out.println("FROM SERVER: " + modifiedSentence);

clientSocket.close();

}
}

Example: Java server (TCP)
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

class TCPServer {

public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception
{
String clientSentence;
Create String capitalizedSentence;
welcoming socket
ServerSocket welcomeSocket = new ServerSocket(6789);
at port 6789
while(true) {
Wait, on welcoming
socket for contact Socket connectionSocket = welcomeSocket.accept();
by client
BufferedReader inFromClient =
Create input new BufferedReader(new
stream, attached InputStreamReader(connectionSocket.getInputStream()));
to socket


Example: Java server (TCP), cont

Create output
stream, attached DataOutputStream outToClient =
to socket new DataOutputStream(connectionSocket.getOutputStream());
Read in line
from socket clientSentence = inFromClient.readLine();

capitalizedSentence = clientSentence.toUpperCase() + 'n';
Write out line
outToClient.writeBytes(capitalizedSentence);
to socket
}
}
} End of while loop,
loop back and wait for
another client connection


2.5 DNS


Socket programming with UDP

UDP: no “connection” between
client and server
no handshaking
sender explicitly attaches application viewpoint
IP address and port of
destination to each packet UDP provides unreliable transfer
of groups of bytes (“datagrams”)
server must extract IP between client and server
address, port of sender
from received packet
UDP: transmitted data may be
received out of order, or
lost


Client/server socket interaction: UDP
Server (running on hostid) Client

create socket, create socket,
port= x. clientSocket =
serverSocket = DatagramSocket()
DatagramSocket()
Create datagram with server IP and
port=x; send datagram via
read datagram from clientSocket
serverSocket

write reply to
serverSocket
specifying read datagram from
client address, clientSocket
port number close

Example: Java client (UDP)
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

class UDPClient {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
{
Create
input stream BufferedReader inFromUser =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
Create
client socket DatagramSocket clientSocket = new DatagramSocket();
Translate
InetAddress IPAddress = InetAddress.getByName("hostname");
hostname to IP
address using DNS byte[] sendData = new byte[1024];
byte[] receiveData = new byte[1024];

String sentence = inFromUser.readLine();
sendData = sentence.getBytes();

Example: Java client (UDP), cont.
Create datagram
with data-to-send, DatagramPacket sendPacket =
length, IP addr, port new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddress, 9876);

Send datagram clientSocket.send(sendPacket);
to server
DatagramPacket receivePacket =
new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
Read datagram
clientSocket.receive(receivePacket);
from server
String modifiedSentence =
new String(receivePacket.getData());

System.out.println("FROM SERVER:" + modifiedSentence);
clientSocket.close();
}
}


Example: Java server (UDP)
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

class UDPServer {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
Create {
datagram socket
DatagramSocket serverSocket = new DatagramSocket(9876);
at port 9876
byte[] receiveData = new byte[1024];
byte[] sendData = new byte[1024];

while(true)
{
Create space for
DatagramPacket receivePacket =
received datagram
new DatagramPacket(receiveData, receiveData.length);
Receive serverSocket.receive(receivePacket);
datagram

Example: Java server (UDP), cont
String sentence = new String(receivePacket.getData());
Get IP addr
InetAddress IPAddress = receivePacket.getAddress();
port #, of
sender int port = receivePacket.getPort();

String capitalizedSentence = sentence.toUpperCase();

sendData = capitalizedSentence.getBytes();
Create datagram
DatagramPacket sendPacket =
to send to client new DatagramPacket(sendData, sendData.length, IPAddress,
port);
Write out
datagram serverSocket.send(sendPacket);
to socket }
}
} End of while loop,
loop back and wait for
another datagram
