Software non-functional requirements address a multitude of objectives, expectations, and even liabilities that must be considered during development and operation. Typically, these non-functional requirements originate from different…

The paper proposes a control-theoretic framework for verification of numerical software systems, and puts forward software verification as an important application of control and systems theory. The idea is to transfer Lyapunov functions…

This paper proposes a framework for integrating data plane (DP) acceleration within the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) architecture. Data plane programming (DPP) proves to be beneficial for NFV environments, as it provides full…

Even though demonstrating extraordinary capabilities in code generation and software issue resolving, AI agents' capabilities in the full software DevOps cycle are still unknown. Different from pure code generation, handling the DevOps…

In the framework of Network Function Virtualization (NFV), the reliability of Service Function Chain (SFC), -- an end-to-end service is presented by a chain of virtual network functions (VNFs), is a complex function of placement,…

The paper proposes a control-theoretic framework for verification of numerical software systems, and puts forward software verification as an important application of control and systems theory. The idea is to transfer Lyapunov functions…

Software Defined Networks has seen tremendous growth and deployment in different types of networks. Compared to traditional networks it decouples the control logic from network layer devices, and centralizes it for efficient traffic…

Regulatory approval and safety guarantees for autonomous vehicles facing frequent functional updates and complex software stacks, including artificial intelligence, are a challenging topic. This paper proposes a concept and guideline for…

Performance Testing is critical for applications like web services and e-commerce platforms to ensure enhanced end user experience. In such cases, starting to test the system's performance early should significantly reduce the overall…

Performance issues in software-defined network (SDN) controllers can have serious impacts on the performance and availability of networks. In this paper, we consider a special class of SDN vulnerabilities called stateful performance issues…

Network performance monitoring holds a pivotal role in improving the overall network performance. It is essential to monitor the traffic statistics at Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) to optimize the traffic flows. The existing monitoring…

Applying DevOps practices to machine learning system is termed as MLOps and machine learning systems evolve on new data unlike traditional systems on requirements. The objective of MLOps is to establish a connection between different…

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is an emerging paradigm that turns hardware-dependent implementation of network functions (i.e., middleboxes) into software modules running on virtualized platforms, for significant cost reduction and…

The development dynamics of digital innovations for industry, business, and society are producing complex system conglomerates that can no longer be designed centrally and hierarchically in classic development processes. Instead, systems…

Network hypervisors provide the network virtualization layer for Software Defined Networking (SDN). They enable virtual network (VN) tenants to bring their SDN controllers to program their logical networks individually according to their…

This paper aims at contributing to the ongoing debate on how to bring programmability of stateful packet processing tasks inside the network switches, while retaining platform independency. Our proposed approach, named "Open Packet…

We survey our results about verification of adaptable processes. We present adaptable processes as a way of overcoming the limitations that process calculi have for describing patterns of dynamic process evolution. Such patterns rely on…

For optimal placement and orchestration of network services, it is crucial that their structure and semantics are specified clearly and comprehensively and are available to an orchestrator. Existing specification approaches are either…

We consider a task of serving requests that arrive in an online fashion in Software-Defined Networks (SDNs) with network function virtualization (NFV). Each request specifies an abstract routing and processing "plan" for a flow. Each…

VoIP is becoming a low-priced and efficient replacement for PSTN in communication industries. With a widely growing adoption rate, SIP is an application layer signaling protocol, standardized by the IETF, for creating, modifying, and…
