The Internet has led to the creation of a digital society, where (almost) everything is
connected and is accessible from anywhere. However, despite their widespread adoption …

Abstract Software-Defined Networking (SDN) architecture has emerged in response to
limitations of traditional networking architectures in satisfying today's complex networking …

Internet of things (IoT) facilitates billions of devices to be enabled with network connectivity
to collect and exchange real-time information for providing intelligent services. Thus, IoT …

A software-defined network (SDN) separates the network control plane from the data
forwarding plane. SDN has shown significant benefits in many ways compared to …

Software-defined networking (SDN) emerged as an attempt to introduce network innovations
faster, and to radically simplify and automate the management of large networks. SDN …

Computer networks have become a critical infrastructure. In fact, networks should not only
meet strict requirements in terms of correctness, availability, and performance but they …

Software-defined networking (SDN) is a novel paradigm that outsources the control of
programmable network switches to a set of software controllers. The most fundamental task …

Networks are critical for the security of many computer systems. However, their complex and
asynchronous nature often renders it difficult to formally reason about network behavior …

Maintaining a strongly consistent network view in a Software Defined Network has been
usually proclaimed as a synonym of low performance. We disagree. To support our view, in …

In spite of the standardization of the OpenFlow API, it is very difficult to write an SDN
controller application that is portable (ie, guarantees correct packet processing over a wide …
