Emerging programmable dataplanes will revamp communication networks, allowing programmers to reconfigure and tailor switches towards their need, in a protocol-independent manner. While the community has articulated well the benefits of such…
The upcoming Sixth Generation (6G) mobile communications system envisions supporting a variety of use cases with differing characteristics, e.g., very low to extremely high data rates, diverse latency needs, ultra massive connectivity,…
The advent of Programmable Data Planes represents an outstanding evolution and complete revolution of the Software- Defined Networking paradigm. The capacity to define the entire behavior of forwarding devices by controlling the packet…
The research community has considered in the past the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to control and operate networks. A notable example is the Knowledge Plane proposed by D.Clark et al. However, such techniques have…
High-speed programmable switches have emerged as a promising building block for developing performant data-plane applications. In this paper, we argue that the resource constraints and programming model in hardware switches has led to…
Software and hardware components are basic parts of modern networks. However the software compo- nent is typical sealed and function-oriented. Therefore it is very difficult to modify these components. This badly affected networking…
Operators perceive programmable networks brought by Software Defined Networks (SDN) as cornerstone to decrease the time to deploy new services, to augment the flexibility and to adapt network resources to customer needs at runtime. However,…
The current power grid is no longer a feasible solution due to ever-increasing user demand of electricity, old infrastructure, and reliability issues and thus require transformation to a better grid a.k.a., smart grid (SG). The key features…
In a reliable SDN environment, different controllers coordinate different switches and backup controllers can be set in place to tolerate faults. This approach increases the challenge to maintain a consistent network view. If this global…
Software-defined networking (SDN) is reshaping the networking paradigm. Previous research shows that SDN has advantages over traditional networks because it separates the control and data plane, leading to greater flexibility through…
Programmable data planes recently emerged as a prominent innovation in Software Defined Networking (SDN), by permitting support of stateful flow processing functions over hardware network switches specifically designed for network…
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has transformed network architectures by decoupling the control and data-planes, enabling fine-grained control over packet processing and forwarding. P4, a language designed for programming data-plane…
The possibility of programming the control and data planes, enabled by the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm, represents a fertile ground on top of which novel operation and management mechanisms can be fully explored, being…
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 aim of this paper is to analyze methods of flexible control in SDN networks and to propose a self-developed solution that will enable intelligent adaptation of SDN controller performance. This work aims not only to review existing…
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…
Software Defined Networking (SDN) brings flexibility in the construction and managment of distributed applications by reducing the constraints imposed by physical networks and by moving the control of networks closer to the applications.…
The energy demands of data centers are increasing and are expected to grow exponentially. Reducing the energy consumption of data centers decreases operational expenses, as well as their carbon footprint. We design techniques to reduce data…
Next generation of wireless local area networks (WLANs) will operate in dense, chaotic and highly dynamic scenarios that in a significant number of cases may result in a low user experience due to uncontrolled high interference levels.…
Modern tactical operations have complex communication and computing requirements, often involving different coalition teams, that cannot be supported by today's mobile ad hoc networks. To this end, the emerging Software Defined Networking…
