Abstract Wireless Local Area Networks of today require a dense deployment of wireless
Access Points, to handle the surge in the amount of traffic generated by an ever-increasing …

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) supports programmability by refactoring the network
control plane. An SDN logically centralizes the control plane of network entities at the …

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has gained growing momentum from its earlier
application for wired networks (eg, data center networks) to its application for wireless and …

The exponential growth of mobile data usage has brought about the necessity of scalable
and manageable network implementations into the current wireless technologies. With the …

Software defined networking (SDN) is growing rapidly in telecommunications due to its
capability to efficiently manage end-to-end networks by decoupling control plane and data …

In this paper, the concept of SDN (Software Defined Networking) is extended to be applied
to wireless networks. Traditionally, in a wired SDN environment, the OpenFlow protocol is …

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has received, in the last years, significant interest from
the academic and the industrial communities alike. The decoupled control and data planes …

Abstract Software Defined Networking (SDN) provides centralized control by separating the
control plane from the data plane on network devices. Subareas of networking such as …

Local area networks based on 802.11 standard of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers (IEEE) represent the largest wireless network technology implementation in the …

With new possibilities brought by the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing, the traffic
demand of wireless networks increases dramatically. A more sophisticated network …
