In many real-world OpenFlow-based SDN deployments, the ability to program heterogeneous forwarding elements built with different forwarding architectures is a desirable capability. In this paper, we discuss a data plane programming…

By programming both the data plane and the control plane, network operators can customize their networks based on their needs, regardless of the hardware manufacturer. Control plane programming, a major component of the SDN (Software…

The problem of attacks on new generation network infrastructures is becoming increasingly relevant, given the widening of the attack surface of these networks resulting from the greater number of devices that will access them in the future…

Programmable data planes enable users to design data plane algorithms for network devices, providing extensive flexibility for network customization. Programming Protocol-Independent Packet Processors (P4) has become the most widely adopted…

While there are various methods to detect application layer attacks or intrusion attempts on an individual end host, it is not efficient to provide all end hosts in the network with heavy-duty defense systems or software firewalls. In this…

The programmability of modern network devices has led to innovative research in the area of in-network computing, i.e., offloading certain computations to the programmable data plane. Key-value stores, which offer coordination services for…

As the vision of in-network computing becomes more mature, we see two parallel evolutionary trends. First, we see the evolution of richer, more demanding applications that require capabilities beyond programmable switching ASICs. Second, we…

The emergence of OpenFlow and Software Defined Networks brings new perspectives into how we design the next generation networks, where the number of base stations/access points as well as the devices per subscriber will be dramatically…

Programmable data planes allow for sophisticated applications that give operators the power to customize the functionality of their networks. Deploying these applications, however, often requires tedious and burdensome optimization of their…

Software-defined networking (SDN) has shifted network management by decoupling the data and control planes. This enables programmatic control via software applications using open APIs. SDN's programmability has fueled its popularity but may…

As network traffic monitoring software for cybersecurity, malware detection, and other critical tasks becomes increasingly automated, the rate of alerts and supporting data gathered, as well as the complexity of the underlying model,…

The software defined networking paradigm relies on the programmability of the network to automatically perform management and reconfiguration tasks. The result of adopting this programmability feature is twofold: first by designing new…

Supporting programmable states in the data plane of a forwarding element, e.g., a switch or a NIC, has recently attracted the interest of the research community, which is now looking for the right abstraction to enable the programming of…

The growing interconnection between software systems increases the need for security already at design time. Security-related properties like confidentiality are often analyzed based on data flow diagrams (DFDs). However, manually analyzing…

In recent times, there have been a lot of efforts for improving the ossified Internet architecture in a bid to sustain unstinted growth and innovation. A major reason for the perceived architectural ossification is the lack of ability to…

Supporting the programming of stateful packet forwarding functions in hardware has recently attracted the interest of the research community. When designing such switching chips, the challenge is to guarantee the ability to program…

The internet landscape is growing and at the same time becoming more heterogeneous. Services are performed via computers and networks, critical data is stored digitally. This enables freedom for the user, and flexibility for operators. Data…

As our lives, our businesses, and indeed our world economy become increasingly reliant on the secure operation of many interconnected software systems, the software engineering research community is faced with unprecedented research…

The Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm decouples control and data planes, offering high programmability and a global view of the network. However, it is a challenge not only provide security in these next generation networks as well…

Data flow diagrams (DFDs) are popular for sketching systems for subsequent threat modelling. Their limited semantics make reasoning about them difficult, but enriching them endangers their simplicity and subsequent ease of take up. We…
