One of the primary architectural principles behind the Internet is the use of distributed
protocols, which facilitates fault tolerance and distributed management. Unfortunately …

Software-defined networking (SDN) is an emerging paradigm that has become increasingly
popular in recent years. The core idea is to separate the control and data planes, allowing …

Emerging network services and subsequent growth in the networking infrastructure have
gained tremendous momentum in recent years. Application performance requiring rapid real …

In the software defined networking (SDN)-based wireless mesh network (WMN) architecture
(SD-WMN), the network is monitored and managed in a centralized manner. Although the …

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are considered self-organizing, self-healing, and self-
configuring networks. Despite these exciting features, WMNs face several routing …

Facing the spectrum supply-demand gap, heterogeneous network (HetNet) is a promising
approach to achieve drastic gains in network coverage and capacity compared with macro …

This paper proposes a novel architecture named SBR, a software defined network (SDN)
architecture using as a routing protocol RPL, a Protocol for Low-Power, and Lossy Networks …

Abstract Software Defined Networking (SDN), with its clear distinction of control and data
planes, as well with its simple paradigm of logically centralized controller with global …

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a framework conceived to make network
infrastructures more programmable and more easily manageable. We explore the …

Traditional communication networks can be leveraged by separating controlling functions
from forwarding functions using emerging technology known as Software Defined …
