A dataset for buffering delays due to the interaction between the Nagle algorithm and the delayed acknowledgement algorithm in cyber-physical systems communication

ABSTRACT: In this article, we provide the research community with a dataset for the buffering delays that data packets experience at the TCP sending side in the realm of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) and IoT. We focus on the buffering that occurs at the sender side due to the the adverse interaction between the Nagle algorithm and the delayed acknowledgement algorithm, which both were originally introduced into TCP to prevent sending out many small-sized packets over the network. These two algorithms are turned on (enabled) by default in most operating systems. The dataset is collected using four real-life operating systems: Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and QNX (a real-time operating system). In each scenario, there are three separate different (virtual) machines running various operating systems. One machine, or an end-host, acts a data source, another acts as a data sink, and a third acts a network emulator that introduces artificial propagation delays between the source and the destination. To measure buffering delay at the sender side, we record for each sent packet the two time instants: when the packet is first generated at the application layer, and when it is actually sent on the physical network. In each case, 10 different independent experiment replications/runs are executed. Here, we provide the full distribution of all delay samples represented by the cumulative distribution function (CDF), which is expressed mathematically by The data exhibited here gives an impression of the amount and scale of the delay occurring at sender-side in TCP. More importantly, the data can be used to investigate the degree these delays affect the performance of cyber-physical systems and IoT or other real-time applications employing TCP.

Project description:While emerging technology for self-driving automation in vehicles progresses rapidly, the transition to an era of roads full of fully connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) may take longer than expected. Until then, it is inevitable that CAVs should coexist and interact with drivers of non-autonomous vehicles (NAVs) in urban roads. During this period of transition, it is critical to provide road safety with the mixed vehicular traffic and uncertainty caused by human drivers. To investigate the issues caused by the coexistence and interaction with humans, we propose to build a component-based and interactive intelligent transportation cyber-physical systems (ITCPS) framework. Our design of the interactive ITCPS framework aims to provide a standardized structure for users by defining core components. The framework is specified by behavior models and interfaces for the desired ITCPS components and is implemented as a form of human and hardware-in-the-loop system. We developed an intersection crossing assistance service and an automatic emergency braking service as an example of practical applications using the framework. To evaluate the framework, we tested its performance to show how effectively it operates while supporting real-time processing. The results indicate that it satisfies the timing requirements of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and the limited processing time required for performing the functions of behavior models, even though the traffic volume reaches the road capacity. A case study using statistical analysis is conducted to assess the practical value of the developed experimental environment. The results of the case study validate the reliability among the specified variables for the experiments involving human drivers. It has shown that V2V communication support has positive effects on road safety, including intersection safety, braking events, and perception-reaction time (PRT) of the drivers. Furthermore, V2V communication support and PRT are identified as the important indicators affecting road safety at an un-signalized intersection. The proposed interactive framework is expected to contribute in constructing a comprehensive environment for the urban ITCPS and providing experimental support for the analysis of human behavior in the coexistence environment.

Project description:Efforts to correctly detect Forbush decreases (FDs) in the cosmic ray (CR) intensity flux are ongoing (see [2], [7]). The FD data presented here are a part of the data generated in [6] in a recent investigation of the effects of CR anisotropies on the simultaneity of FDs. A part of the simultaneous and non-simultaneous FDs detected from both raw and Fourier transformed CR data are presented. Some of the filtered CR anisotropies are also presented. The datasets are interesting as they provide an opportunity to investigate the interaction of CR anisotropies on FDs. [6] identified FDs from both raw and Fourier transformed CR data. For the FDs identified in the raw data, the impact of diurnal anisopropy was not removed. Additionally, FDs were identified using a careful adjustment for diurnal anisotropy. The results of FD catalogues for ten CR stations are presented. All are calculated with the same method and selection criteria. Thus these catalogues can be united contrary to the indication of [1], allowing comparison of Chree, regression or correction analysis based on CR data from isolated neutron monitors [9]. These data can also be used in the analysis of FD event simultaneity. Several claims on FD event simultaneity by some authors ([5], [8]) using few FDs can be verified using the data. The diagrams show the relationships between raw and Fourier transformed CR data as well as CR anisotropic variations at different locations. The similarities and differences between these figures could be used to discuss the impact of rigidity on diurnal anisotropy and FDs. The quantitative amplitudes of the diurnal anisotropy calculated at the time of FDs could be useful in such investigation. Okike [6] calculated the amplitude of diurnal anisotropies accompanying FDs and are presented here. The large number of strong and small FDs selected from each station for the year 2003 may encourage reanalysis of previous work employing only 3 or 4 FDs in each year. Many studies relating FDs to terrestrial effects have focused on a single FD without strong evidence that it is generalizable to others. This may attract criticism that the conclusions drawn do not extend to all FDs. The diagrams presented here are similar to those presented in [6] for the Climax station. Rather than display separate FD events, the complete intensity variation together with the accompanying FDs are clearly displayed. Solar wind plasma data may be displayed alongside the data for comparative purposes. It is hoped that this approach will answer the numerous objections made to solar-terrestrial analysis involving FDs.
