Towards Minimum Inter-Controller Delay Time in Software Defined Networking

Hybrid Networking Towards a Software Defined Era

Controller Placement in Software Defined Network using Iterated Local Search

Software defined network is a new computer network architecture who separates controller and data layer in network devices such as switches and routers. By the emerge of software defined networks, a class of location problems, called controller placement problem, has attracted much more research attention. The task in the problem is to simultaneously find optimal number and location of controll...

Delay Bounded Multi-Source Multicast in Software-Defined Networking

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is the next generation network architecture with exciting application prospects. The control function in SDN is decoupled from the data forwarding plane, hence it provides a new centralized architecture with flexible network resource management. Although SDN is attracting much attention from both industry and research, its advantage over the traditional network...

Software-defined Networking for Real-time Ethernet

Real-time Ethernet is used in many industrial and embedded systems, but has so far mostly been statically configured. However, in the future these network configurations will be required to change dynamically, for example for highly flexible production lines or even software upgrades in modern cars that add new features which require changes to the in-vehicle network. Software-defined networkin...

Software Defined Networking Concepts

ion allowing the control of low level behavior in switching devices. Such an approach could turn out to be beneficial, since it would simplify the deployment of new more efficient schemes for low level switch operations [20]. On the other hand, while moving all control operations to a logically centralized controller has the advantage of easier network management, it can also raise scalability ...
