A Novel Features Prioritization Mechanism for Controllers in Software-Defined Networking

The controller in software-defined networking (SDN) acts as strategic point of control for the underlying network. Multiple controllers are available, and every single retains a number features such OpenFlow version, clustering, modularity, platform, partnership support, etc. They regarded vital when making selection among set controllers. As such, becomes multi-criteria decision (MCDM) problem with several features. Hence, an increase this will computational complexity process. Previously, based on has been studied by researchers. However, prioritization gotten less attention. Moreover, In paper, we propose mathematical modeling feature analytical network process (ANP) bridge model SDN results indicate that prioritized lead to reduction controller. addition, our generates
