CMP271 \u2013 Software-based and Programmable Networks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Professor<\/strong>: Alberto Egon Schaeffer Filho<\/a>
\nPrerequisites<\/strong>: \u2013
\nHours<\/strong>: 60 hs
\nCredits<\/strong>: 4
\nSemesters<\/strong>: Second semester
\nUndergraduate Enrollment<\/strong>: The enrollment must be made as Special Student<\/p>\n

SUMMARY<\/strong>
\nOverview. History of network programability. Software-Defined Networking. Network Function Virtualization. Programmable Data Planes. In-Network Computing.<\/p>\n

OBJECTIVES<\/strong>
\nEnable students to understand and analyze the past and present of software-based networks as well as the main motivations, challenges and limitations of each paradigm. Discuss open challenges and future research directions in the area.<\/p>\n

PROGRAM<\/strong>
\n1. History: early efforts in network programmability; the road to SDN; active networks; smart packets.
\n2. Software-Defined Networking (SDN): motivation; control and data plane separation; SDN architecture; protocols and interfaces; OpenFlow versions; limitations.
\n3. Network Function Virtualization (NFV): motivation; middleboxes; virtualization principles; standards; NFV platforms; hardware acceleration.
\n4. Programmable data planes: motivation; programmable hardware; P4 language, switch architecture; other efforts (e.g., POF).
\n5. In-network computing: motivation; offloading computational tasks to the data plane; example applications.<\/p>\n

EVALUATION<\/strong>
\nEvaluation will be based on the following criteria: (a) attendance and participation in discussions; (b) presentation of papers and critical analysis of colleagues\u2019 presentations; (c) submission of short essays at the end of each area; (d) a written research proposal. There are no examinations, but the student is expected to read a good number of papers, mainly beyond class hours.<\/p>\n
