The emergence of intelligent applications and recent advances in the fields of computing and networks are driving the development of computing and networks convergence (CNC) system. However, existing researches failed to achieve…

Segment routing (SR) offers precise control over the paths taken: it specifies a list of detours, called segments, in IP packets. However, the number of detours that can be specified is limited by the hardware. When calculating segment…

Carrier-grade networks comprise several layers where different protocols coexist. Nowadays, most of these networks have different control planes to manage routing on different layers, leading to a suboptimal use of the network resources and…

Future practical implementation of secure quantum communication technology in a multiuser network environment would require automatic monitoring of the optical link condition and quantum system parameters, along with adjusting them in real…

The concept of SDN has emerged as a way to address numerous challenges with traditional network architectures by decoupling network control and forwarding. So far, the use cases for SDN mainly targeted data-center applications. This article…

Paths selection algorithms and rate adaptation objective functions are usually studied separately. In contrast, this paper evaluates some traffic engineering (TE) systems for software defined networking obtained by combining path selection…

The state-of-the-art topologies of datacenter networks are fixed, based on electrical switching technology, and by now, we understand their throughput and cost well. For the past years, researchers have been developing novel optical…

The current functionality supported by OpenFlowbased software defined networking (SDN) includes switching, routing, tunneling, and some basic fire walling while operating on traffic flows. However, the semantics of SDN do not allow for…

Rapid growth of data center networks (DCNs) poses significant challenges for large-scale traffic engineering (TE). Existing acceleration strategies, which rely on commercial solvers or deep learning, face scalability issues and struggle…

Enterprise Networks, over the years, have become more and more complex trying to keep up with new requirements that challenge traditional solutions. Just to mention one out of many possible examples, technologies such as Virtual LANs…

The advent of SDN has brought a plethora of new architectures and controller designs for many use-cases and scenarios. Existing SDN deployments focus on campus, datacenter and WAN networks. However, little research efforts have been devoted…

The evolution of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has so far been predominantly geared towards defining and refining the abstractions on the forwarding and control planes. However, despite a maturing south-bound interface and a range of…

Software-defined Networking is an approach that decouples the software-based control plane from the hardware-based data plane proposed for enterprise networks; OpenFlow is the most famous flexible protocol that can manage network traffic…

The Internet is the driving force of the new digital world, which has created a revolution. With the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT), almost everything is being connected to the internet. However, with the traditional IP network…

Our study uses the centralized, flexible, dynamic, and programmable structure of Software-Defined networks (SDN) to overcome the problems. Although SDN effectively addresses the challenges present in traditional networks, it still requires…

The electric power distribution network (PDN) and the transportation network (TN) are generally operated/coordinated by different entities. However, they are coupled with each other due to electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs). This…

The Internet is composed of Autonomous Systems (ASes) or domains, i.e., networks belonging to different administrative entities. Routing between domains/ASes is realised in a distributed way, over the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Despite…

This report defines a carrier-grade split architecture based on requirements identified during the SPARC project. It presents the SplitArchitecture proposal, the SPARC concept for Software Defined Networking (SDN) introduced for large-scale…

Software Defined Networking (SDN) has been recently introduced as a new communication paradigm in computer networks. By separating the control plane from the data plane and entrusting packet forwarding to straightforward switches, SDN makes…

In this paper, we mainly investigate an integrated system operating under a software defined network (SDN) protocol. SDN is a new networking paradigm in which network intelligence is centrally administered and data is communicated via…
