Resource Allocation for Software Defined Networks (SpringerBriefs in Computer Science)

The book is devoted to the selected resource allocation problems in Software- Defined Networks. Moreover, it covers results concerning Software Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) which is one of the current networking hot topics. The variety of different cases is considered including virtualization and information-centric paradigm. For each case, the mathematical model together with the problem formulation is given and some solution algorithms are proposed. The algorithms are discussed and evaluated, mostly with simulations.
