| Description | The programmable network approach allows processing of passing user data in a network, which is highly suitable especially for video streams processing. However, the programming of complex stream processing applications for programmable nodes is not effortless since they usually do not provide sufficient flexibility (both programming flexibility and execution environment flexibility). In this paper we present the architecture of our DiProNN node---the VM-based Distributed Programmable Network Node, that is able to accept and run user-supplied programs and/or virtual machines and process them (in parallel if requested) over passing user data. The node is primarily meant to perform stream processing---to enhance DiProNN flexibility and make programming of streaming applications for DiProNN node easier, we also propose suitable modular programming model which takes advantages of DiProNN virtualization and makes its programming more comfortable. |
