Efficient virtual network transmission using correlated equilibrium on Xen-based platform

•This paper proposes an approach of redesigning the upgrade mechanism, and further rebuilding the structure of the patch file.•To solve the large delay the whole transmission for image delivering, the correlated equilibria is introduced as an arbitrator which can send public or private signals to the players.•The experiments validate the efficiency of the proposed method for providing better network transmission.

In the study of upgrading large computer systems based on Xen-based platform, One key problem is about multimedia delivering on internal virtual network transmission. The upgrade efficiency has still been flat on current upgrade mechanism. Our goal is to solve the virtual network transmission problems, and make redesigned upgrade mechanism more efficient than the current one. In this paper, we focus on balancing multiple aspects of network traffic by adding coordination mechanisms along with correlated equilibrium, resulting in great internal virtual network transmission efficiency. The efficiency of the proposed method is validated in the test networks.
