Integrated OpenFlow — GMPLS control plane: An overlay model for software defined packet over optical networks
Siamak Azodolmolky,Reza Nejabati,Eduard Escalona,Ramanujam Jayakumar,Nikolaos Efstathiou,Dimitra Simeonidou +5 more
TL;DR: A novel software-defined packet over optical networks solution based on the OpenFlow and GMPLS control plane integration is demonstrated and the proposed architecture, experimental setup, and average flow setup time for different optical flows is reported.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Virtual network function scheduling: Concept and challenges
TL;DR: An overview of the application and state-of-the-art of SDN and NFV technologies over optical networks and the first formalisation model for the VNF complex scheduling problem is provided, using the complex job formalisation.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
On the Implementation of NFV over an OpenFlow Infrastructure: Routing Function Virtualization
TL;DR: This article describes one of the first implementations of the functional NFV concept, through the virtualization of the routing function over an OpenFlow network, and the different scenarios considered to validate the virtualized function.
Proceedings Article
Optical network virtualization
TL;DR: This paper first introduces the concept of optical network virtualization, and its implication on optical network elements and transport technologies, and describes how different transport format and switching technologies can be used for virtualization and what the possible challenges are.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
An OpenNaaS Based SDN Framework for Dynamic QoS Control
TL;DR: The Network Control Layer (NCL), a software framework solution based on Software Defined Networks, OpenFlow and Network as a Service (NaaS) paradigms, is proposed, providing on-demand end-to-end network provisioning services with guaranteed QoS, based on the specific requirements of on-top running interactive applications.
