With SDN increasingly becoming an enabling technology for NFV in the cloud, many virtualized network functions need to monitor the network state in order to function properly. An outdated network view at the controllers can impact the performance of those virtualized network functions. In earlier work, we identified two main factors contributing to an outdated network view in the case of a load-balancer:...
In this paper, we introduce the use of adaptive controllers into software-defined networking (SDN) and propose the use of adaptive consistency models in the context of distributed SDN controllers. These adaptive controllers can tune their own configurations in real-time in order to enhance the performance of the applications running on top of them. We expect that the use of such controllers could...
Intelligent and autonomous SDN applications need to monitor the network state in order to take appropriate actions. In this letter, we compare the impact of active and passive network state collection methods on an SDN load-balancing application running at the controller. We do this comparison through: 1) the results of a mathematical model evaluation we derive for the SDN load-balancer, and 2) the...
In this position paper, we propose the use of software-defined networking (SDN) in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for smart management. We argue that smart management using SDN promises a solution to some of inherent problems in WSN management. Furthermore, we propose a generic architecture for a base station in a software-defined wireless sensor network. We also propose a general framework for a...
