The development and maturity of the fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication
technology provides the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) with ultra-reliable and low-latency …

Controller placement is a critical issue in Software-Defined Networking, which has been
identified as a potential approach to achieve more flexible network control and …

One of the most critical challenges of the Internet of Things (IoT) is to provide real-time
services. Therefore, to provide a secure, efficient, and stable communication platform in the …

In this paper, we propose a dynamic controller assignment scheme while considering flow-
specific requirements, with an aim to minimize controller response time in software-defined …

Abstract Considering the Internet of Things (IoT) impact in today's world, uninterrupted
service is essential, and recovery has received more attention than ever before. Fault …

This paper proposes a preventive priority setting model to minimize the worst-case
maximum utilization ratio against multiple controller failures in software defined networks …

In this paper, we present the design of an in-band control plane system for P4 networks. The
proposed in-band control plane performs automatic switch bootstrapping, network status …

In Software Defined Networks (SDNs), the control plane of a network is decoupled from its
data plane. For scalability and robustness, the logically centralized control plane is …

Realizing node-to-node connections is a basic functionality of communication networks. In
some networks, like SDN, to perform this function nodes must have access to controllers–the …

Due to the dynamic mobility feature, the proactive flow rule cache method has become one
promising solution in software-defined networking (SDN)-based access networks to reduce …
