Description
2019-20
Design and Development of a framework for Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) over IGMP for 10G rate using Intel DPDK.
This Software implements the Internet Group Management Protocol IGMPv2 and v3 for DPDK, and manages group memberships for DVB subscribers. This project integrates RaptorQ, a fountain error correction algorithm, to generate configurable redundant error correction streams to provide robust forward error correction.
2020-24
Design and Development of an Internet traffic shaper for an Internet Service Provider at 80 Gbit/sec using Intel DPDK.
This Software is developed for DATAFORCENETWORK Lebanon, which enhances the intel DPDK QoS Scheduler application by classifying subscriber traffic with 5-tuple filters and Deep Packet Inspection. Further, subscriber traffic (YouTube, Social Media, Netflix, etc) is rate-limited to the different classes per subscriber.
