In this paper, we consider the bandwidth-delay-hop constrained routing problem in large-scaled software defined networks. A number of demands, each of which specifies a source vertex and a sink vertex, are required to route in a given network. We are asked to select a subset of demands, and assign a routing path for each selected demand without violating the hop and delay constraints, while assuring that the bandwidth occupied in each edge is not beyond its capacity. The goal is to maximize the throughput (the total bandwidth) of the selected demands. We develop an efficient heuristic algorithm for the problem, which consists of three main steps, namely, computing feasible paths for each demand, sorting the demands with some priority rules, selecting a path for each demand. The algorithm is tested with networks of actual sizes and topologies, generated by Huawei Technologies Company. The experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms existing algorithms both in throughput and in running time. In the experiments, our algorithm achieves more than 90% of the total bandwidth of the given demands within 10 seconds. Moreover, a large part of our algorithm can run in parallel which largely speeds up the process when using multi-core processors.

Many of the video streaming applications in todays Internet involve the distribution of content from a CDN source to a large population of interested clients. However, widespread support of IP multicast is unavailable due to technical and economical reasons, leaving the floor to application layer multicast which introduces excessive delays for the clients and increased traffic load for the network. This paper is concerned with the introduction of an SDN-based framework that allows the network controller to not only deploy IP multicast between a source and subscribers, but also control, via a simple northbound interface, the distributed set of sources where multiple- description coded (MDC) video content is available. We observe that for medium to heavy network loads, relative to the state-of-the-art, the SDN-based streaming multicast video framework increases the PSNR of the received video significantly, from a level that is practically unwatchable to one that has good quality.
The server-centric data centre network architecture can accommodate a wide variety of network topologies. Newly proposed topologies in this arena often require several rounds of analysis and experimentation in order that they might achieve their full potential as data centre networks. We propose a family of novel routing algorithms on two well-known data centre networks of this type, (Generalized) DCell and FiConn, using techniques that can be applied more generally to the class of networks we call completely connected recursively-defined networks. In doing so, we develop a classification of all possible routes from server-node to server-node on these networks, called general routes of order $t$, and find that for certain topologies of interest, our routing algorithms efficiently produce paths that are up to 16% shorter than the best previously known algorithms, and are comparable to shortest paths. In addition to finding shorter paths, we show evidence that our algorithms also have good load-balancing properties.
The flexible and programmable architectural model offered by Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has re-imagined modern networks. Supported by powerful hardware and high-speed communications between devices and the controller, SDN provides a means to v irtualize control functionality and enable rapid network reconfiguration in response to dynamic application requirements. However, recent efforts to apply SDNs centralized control model to the Internet of Things (IoT) have identified significant challenges due to the constraints faced by embedded low-power devices and networks that reside at the IoT edge. In particular, reliance on external SDN controllers on the backbone network introduces a performance bottleneck (e.g., latency). To this end, we advocate a case for supporting Software-Defined IoT networks through the introduction of lightweight SDN controllers directly on the embedded hardware. We firstly explore the performance of two popular SDN implementations for IoT mesh networks, $mu$SDN and SDN-WISE, showing the former demonstrates considerable gains over the latter. We consequently employ $mu$SDN to conduct a study of embedded vs. external SDN controller performance. We highlight how the advantage of an embedded controller is reduced as the network scales, and quantify a point at which an external controller should be used for larger networks.
Previous research on SDN traffic engineering mostly focuses on static traffic, whereas dynamic traffic, though more practical, has drawn much less attention. Especially, online SDN multicast that supports IETF dynamic group membership (i.e., any user can join or leave at any time) has not been explored. Different from traditional shortest-path trees (SPT) and graph theoretical Steiner trees (ST), which concentrate on routing one tree at any instant, online SDN multicast traffic engineering is more challenging because it needs to support dynamic group membership and optimize a sequence of correlated trees without the knowledge of future join and leave, whereas the scalability of SDN due to limited TCAM is also crucial. In this paper, therefore, we formulate a new optimization problem, named Online Branch-aware Steiner Tree (OBST), to jointly consider the bandwidth consumption, SDN multicast scalability, and rerouting overhead. We prove that OBST is NP-hard and does not have a $|D_{max}|^{1-epsilon}$-competitive algorithm for any $epsilon >0$, where $|D_{max}|$ is the largest group size at any time. We design a $|D_{max}|$-competitive algorithm equipped with the notion of the budget, the deposit, and Reference Tree to achieve the tightest bound. The simulations and implementation on real SDNs with YouTube traffic manifest that the total cost can be reduced by at least 25% compared with SPT and ST, and the computation time is small for massive SDN.
The performance of computer networks relies on how bandwidth is shared among different flows. Fair resource allocation is a challenging problem particularly when the flows evolve over time.To address this issue, bandwidth sharing techniques that quic kly react to the traffic fluctuations are of interest, especially in large scale settings with hundreds of nodes and thousands of flows. In this context, we propose a distributed algorithm that tackles the fair resource allocation problem in a distributed SDN control architecture. Our algorithm continuously generates a sequence of resource allocation solutions converging to the fair allocation while always remaining feasible, a property that standard primal-dual decomposition methods often lack. Thanks to the distribution of all computer intensive operations, we demonstrate that we can handle large instances in real-time.
