- Abstract
- Efficient resource scheduling in reconfigurable datacenter networks (RDCNs) is critical, but conventional schemes face challenges in responsiveness and adaptability, particularly during traffic bursts. This paper presents P4ToR, a novel distributed scheduling framework that uses P4-based programmable switches for improved traffic monitoring and dynamic optical circuit switch (OCS) allocation. P4ToR improves network responsiveness and scalability, as evident in 38.01% increase in throughput with significant reduction in flow completion time (FCT). These improvements demonstrate the potential of P4ToR as a scalable and efficient solution for RDCN resource management.
