The highly dynamic nature of the current network traffics, makes the network managers to exploit the flexibility of the state-of-the-art paradigm called SDN. In this way, there has been an increasing interest in hybrid networks of SDN-MPLS.…

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an emerging technology of efficiently controlling and managing computer networks, such as in data centres, Wide Area Networks (WANs), as well as in ubiquitous communication. In this paper, we explore the…

To improve traffic management ability, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are gradually upgrading legacy network devices to programmable devices that support Software-Defined Networking (SDN). The coexistence of legacy and SDN devices gives…

This paper proposes an application-aware multipath packet forwarding framework that integrates Machine Learning Techniques (MLT) and Software Defined Networks (SDN). As the Internet provides a variety of services and their performance…

Being a state-of-the-art network, Software Defined Networking (SDN) decouples control and management planes from data plane of the forwarding devices by implementing both the control and management planes at logically centralized entity,…

Networking for big data has to be intelligent because it will adjust data transmission requirements adaptively during data splitting and merging. Software-defined networking (SDN) provides a workable and practical paradigm for designing…

In this paper, we propose a destination-aware adaptive traffic flow rule aggregation (DATA) mechanism for facilitating traffic flow monitoring in SDN-based networks. This method adapts the number of flow table entries in SDN switches…

Flow delegation is a flexible technique to mitigate flow table capacity bottlenecks in Software-defined Networks (SDN). Such bottlenecks occur when SDN switches provide insufficient flow table capacity which leads to performance degradation…

Modern information technology services largely depend on cloud infrastructures to provide their services. These cloud infrastructures are built on top of datacenter networks (DCNs) constructed with high-speed links, fast switching gear, and…

As the most competitive solution for next-generation network, software-defined network (SDN) and its dominant implementation OpenFlow, are attracting more and more interests. But besides convenience and flexibility, SDN/OpenFlow also…

Recently, Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has been proposed as an alternative transport approach for datacenter networks. MPTCP provides the ability to split a flow into multiple paths thus providing better performance and resilience to failures.…

To increase the scalability of Software Defined Networks (SDNs), flow aggregation schemes have been proposed to merge multiple mouse flows into an elephant aggregated flow for traffic engineering. In this paper, we first notice that the…

OpenFlow is one of the most commonly used protocols for communication between the controller and the forwarding element in a software defined network (SDN). A model based on M/M/1 queues is proposed in [1] to capture the communication…

The centralized architecture in software-defined network (SDN) provides a global view of the underlying network, paving the way for enormous research in the area of SDN traffic engineering (SDN TE). This research focuses on the load…

The successful OpenFlow approach to Software Defined Networking (SDN) allows network programmability through a central controller able to orchestrate a set of dumb switches. However, the simple match/action abstraction of OpenFlow switches…

In software-defined networking (SDN), as data plane scale expands, scalability and reliability of the control plane have become major concerns. To mitigate such concerns, two kinds of solutions have been proposed separately. One is multi-…

Middleboxes are special network devices that perform various functions such as enabling security and efficiency. SDN-based routing approaches in networks with middleboxes need to address resource constraints, such as memory in the switches…

Efficient load-balancing mechanisms are critical for maximizing performance and increasing the quality of service (QoS) of data center networks (DCNs). Obtaining the optimal QoS while minimizing resource consumption remains a significant…

Network monitoring and measurement are crucial in network management to facilitate quality of service routing and performance evaluation. Software Defined Networking (SDN) makes network management easier by separating the control plane and…

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new networking architecture which aims to provide better decoupling between network control (control plane) and data forwarding functionalities (data plane). This separation introduces several…
