Early programming languages for software-defined networking (SDN) were built on top of
the simple match-action paradigm offered by OpenFlow 1.0. However, emerging hardware …

In this work we develop an approach for anomaly detection for large scale networks such as
that of an enterprize or an ISP. The traffic patterns we focus on for analysis are that of a …

Traffic engineering plays a critical role in determining the performance and reliability of a
network. A major challenge in traffic engineering is how to cope with dynamic and …

Anomaly detection is a first and important step needed to respond to unexpected problems
and to assure high performance and security in IP networks. We introduce a framework and …

Formally, the Internet inter-domain routing system is a collection of networks, their policies,
peering relationships and organizational affiliations, and the addresses they advertize. It …

Current distributed routing paradigms (such as link-state, distance-vector, and path-vector)
involve a convergence process consisting of an iterative exploration of intermediate routes …

In the era of the telephone, voice traffic dominated physical telecommunication lines. With
the birth of the Internet, and its subsequent adoption as a key means of communication, data …

An understanding of the topological structure of the Internet is needed for quite a number of
networking tasks, eg, making decisions about peering relationships, choice of upstream …

(57) ABSTRACT A flexible mechanism and method for routers to select the egress point for
each destination comprises identifying a plu rality of points of egress from an autonomous …

The performance of a backbone network is vulnerable to interdomain routing changes that
affect how traffic travels to destinations in other Autonomous Systems (ASes). Despite …
