Network operators are facing great challenges in terms of cost and complexity in order to incorporate new communication technologies (e.g., 4G, 5G, fiber) and to keep up with increasing demands of new network services to address emerging use cases. Softwarizing the network operations using SoftwareDefined Networking (SDN) and Network Function...

Packet-level programming languages such as P4 usually require to describe all packet processing functionalities for a given programmable network device within a single program. However, this approach monopolizes the device by a single large network application program, which prevents possible addition of new functionalities by other...

We are witnessing a considerable amount of research work related to data center and cloud infrastructures but evaluations are often limited to small-scale scenarios as very few researchers have access to a real infrastructure to confront their ideas to reality. In this demo we will reveal our experiment automation tool, DiG (Data centers in the...

—New applications where anyone can broadcast high quality video are becoming very popular. ISPs may take the opportunity to propose new high quality multicast services to their clients. Because of its centralized control plane, Software Defined Networking (SDN) enables the deployment of such a service in a flexible and bandwidth-efficient way....
