How can a mobile service provider reduce costs with software-defined networking?

Software-defined networking: the service provider perspective

Software Defined Networking Concepts

ion allowing the control of low level behavior in switching devices. Such an approach could turn out to be beneficial, since it would simplify the deployment of new more efficient schemes for low level switch operations [20]. On the other hand, while moving all control operations to a logically centralized controller has the advantage of easier network management, it can also raise scalability ...

NetOpen Networking Service: Software-defined Networking Service on Programmable Network Substrates

In this paper, we propose our on-going effort for developing NetOpen networking service that supports extended flowbased networking with programmable network substrates.

Software defined networking for security enhancement in wireless mobile networks

In recent years we have seen a fast change in the networking industry: leading by the Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm that separates the control plane from the data plane to enable programmability and centralized control of the network infrastructure, the SDN design not only simplifies the network management but also accelerates the innovation speed of deploying advanced network appl...

Software-defined networking based network virtualization for mobile operators

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm provides many features including hardware abstraction, programmable networking and centralized policy control. One of the main benefits used along with these features is core/backhaul network virtualization which ensures sharing of mobile core and backhaul networks among Mobile Operators (MOs). In this paper, we propose a virtualized SDN-based Evolved ...
