Abstract

Active networks have been a research topic for years and many contributions have helped to refine the active node architecture, the active networks protocols and the needed functionalities. One of them is the service deployment, which is a key functionality for the success of active networks. Many research papers studied this item but how the active node information is known and used for the node selection is not satisfactory. In this paper, a new concept based on a Peer-to-Peer system, enhancing the deployment process, is presented. This P2P system is used by active nodes to advertise theirs capabilities, which enables "control active nodes" to perform the service deployment, depending on the service requirements and constraints. The concept of administrative domains is also taken into account, when deploying services, for widespread active networks. This work is related to the control plane of active networks, based on a P2P system and can be classified as a new approach for the service deployment.
