Objectives:
The proposed target is to create a document on the TF
subject that could be used to formalize the TF
discussion and its results and that will be presented
openly.
It will be the basis for a formal scientific paper
Additional elements:
Create a forum for networking on R&D project
preparation (H2020, Eureka’s ..) on the subject.
Promote and Follow up on STSM on the subject.
1
Issues:
White Paper:
We should be careful in how the White Paper is setup, because there are
several very good overview and introductory style SDN papers out. So which
gap do we address.?
IG Split
As it is a very wide field it is Proposed to Split into following areas:
•
•
•
•
Integrated View, Architecture
South Bound environment
North Bound environment
Security
1
Issues:
Work possibilities:
•
Network softwarisation as network function
virtualization. (software based load balancer, firewall,
etc)
•
Software Emulation of Network (as in mininet) .
•
Network elements abstractions and interaction
modelling
1
Issues:
•
Network Management Functions, Dash Board,
Recommenders.
•
Learning capabilities in SDN in connection to WG 13
results and that will be presented.
It will be the basis for a formal scientific paper
Additional elements:
Create a forum for networking on R&D project preparation
(H2020, Eureka’s ..) on the subject.
Promote and Follow up on STSM on the subject.
1
Issues:
•
Softwarisation of network :
Using sdn for dynamic complex service chain creation (TF 3),
and to address technical challenges of reliable composite
service chains, investigate restructuring performance and
reliability, threads to consider to avoid faults, develop
checklist and collect experiences, issues that should be
implemented into tools and technologies used for
automatic service creation. Network defense mechanisms,
tools, technologies in case of bad quality/performance of
service chains, adequacy of existing programming
languages, formalisms.
1
Issues:
•
SDN additional Security risks
•
In connection with TF2 Cross-layer QoE
management and IG’s
o
To address those aspects of QoE, where SDN
presents a significant benefit. :Context-based QoE
monitoring: Dynamic adaptive video streaming , servicespecific QoE estimation models for SDN,A cross-layer QoE
management, Time-aware applications, QoE in mobile
networks.
o
A service-specific QoE estimation models for SDN.
