Abstract

Several important network applications cannot easily scale to higher data rates without requiring focusing just on the large traffic flows.
Recent works have discussed algorithmic solutions that trade-off accuracy to gain efficiency for filtering and tracking the so called heavy-hitters. However, a major limit is that flows must initially go a filtering process, making it impossible to track state associated  with the first few packets of the flow.
In this paper, we propose a different paradigm in tracking the large flows which overcomes this limit. We view the problem as that of managing a small flow cache with a finely tuned replacement policy that strives to avoid evicting the heavy-hitters. Our scheme starts from recorded traffic traces and uses Genetic Algorithms to evolve a replacement policy tailored for supporting seamless, stateful  traffic-processing. We evaluate our scheme in terms of missed heavy-hitters: it performs close to the optimal, oracle-based policy, and when compared to other standard policies, it consistently outperforms them, even by a factor of two in most cases.
