Abstract Software Defined Networking (SDN) decouples the control plane and the data
plane and solves the difficulty of new services deployment. However, the threat of a single …

In the years since its initiation, the software-defined network paradigm has evolved into a
distinguished networking technology by causing a revolution in separating the control logic …

Network Function Virtualization enables network operators to modernize their networks with
greater elasticity, network programmability, and scalability. Exploiting these advantages …

Smart Grid (SG) research and development has drawn much attention from academia,
industry and government due to the great impact it will have on society, economics and the …

Software-defined networking relies on a controller as its main element. Therefore, it is critical
for the controller to present features that improve the overall network performance while …

Software-defined networking (SDN) enables innovative and impressive solutions in the
networking domain by decoupling the control plane from the data plane. In an SDN …

In this paper, we i) analyze and classify real-world failures of Kubernetes (the most popular
container orchestration system), ii) develop a framework to perform a fault/error injection …

Abstract Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is becoming prevalently in recent years.
Practical SDN (eg, production Software-defined Wide Area Network) deployments leverage …

Abstract Software-Defined Networking (SDN) offers a paradigm shift in network
management, providing increased flexibility and centralized control. However, this …

Software defined networking controller defects may cause unexpected failures and reduce
network reliability. The historical defect texts provide information on defecting symptoms and …
