The document outlines the initiatives of the Sudanese research group focusing on Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). It discusses the group's objectives, structure, research focus, and future trends, emphasizing the importance of community engagement and research impact. Additionally, it highlights the anticipated challenges and foundational knowledge necessary for researchers in the field.
SDN/NFV Sudanese Research Group Initiative
- 1. SDN/NFV Sudanese Research Group Initiative IEEE SUDAN Introductory Session
- 2. The power of GROUP Define the problems to be tackled and the questions to be answered. Guide the research into directed topics and interpret the results in terms of their significance for community ,policy change and industry demands. Disseminate findings and enrich the scientific and industry communities.
- 3. Build a research group Clear Goals Flat Structure Communication Resources Timelines Integration Productivity Research emphasis Decentralization Continuity Achievements Rewarding & Recognition
- 4. SDN/NFV Research Groups Open Networking Foundation (ONF) IEEE SDN Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) Stanford University Metro Ethernet Forum(MEF)
- 5. Software Defined Networking Network Functions Virtualization
- 6. Software Defined Networking A new networking paradigm, Where the forwarding hardware (i.e. network devices as legacy routers and switches) is decoupled from the control plane i.e. the routing protocols and control software. o Programmability o Flexibility o Scalability o Vendor-independency o Standardization of application programming interfaces
- 9. SDN Applications Quality of Service Congestion aware-routing Content aware-routing Security IoT/WSN
- 10. Network Functions Virtualization NFV is to virtualize (known also as network softwarization) a set of network functions by deploying them into software packages, which can assembled and chained to create the same services provided in legacy networks. o Build end-to-end infrastructure o Flexibility & scalability o Enable network functions on general purpose computing/storage platforms. o Horizontal and vertical chaining
- 12. SDN/NFV Trends In next 3 years SDN/NFV will dominate the networking industry. 2020
- 13. SDN/NFV Trends
- 14. SDN/NFV Challenges Maturity and standardization Interoperability Silicon Concerns Performance Centralized vs Distributed
- 15. How to be SDN/NFV Researcher
- 16. Back to the basics Algebra Queuing theory and Graph theory Information Theory Legacy Switching and Routing protocols Programming
- 17. Network programming Client-server programming (TCP , UDP , unicast , multicast … etc.). Socket/tunnel programming ( TAP , RTP , WebSockets … etc.). Packet manipulation ( encapsulation , labeling , … )
- 19. Tools box o Network simulation and Emulation environments o Network traffic generators o Network traffic analyzers o Packet inspectors
- 20. Discussion Q&A twitter or Facebook #IEEE_SDN
- 21. If you want to join us Drop your CV at [email protected]
- 22. What next ? o Recruiting and team building o Creating collaboration platform ( Google group , mailing list , website ). o Research Topics roadmap.
