Program Synthesis for Programmable Data Planes: Generating P4 code by input-output examples

An all-important step in the ambitious pursuit towards autonomous networks has been the introduction of Software Defined Networking which has advocated the concept of separating a network’s control plane from the data plane and creating a programmable controller with a wider view of the network. This innovation proved to be very promising, but...

Online Survivability in Software Defined Elastic Optical Networks

With the high and varying demands for network bandwidth, Elastic Optical Networks (EON), as a promising solution for future optical transport networks, have been getting increased attention due to its flexibility and efficiency. As a huge amount of data is transformed over these networks, even short failures will lead to major data loss. Network...
