OPENFLOW EXTENSIONS TOWARDS MULTI-LAYER AND MULTI-DOMAIN NETWORKS: OFELIA Chairs: Hagen Woesner, EICT GmbH, Germany, Siamak Azodolmolky, Univ. of Essex, UK Workshop 9 Sunday, 18 September, 2011 10:00 - 13:30 Room F Abstract While starting from a rather homogeneous Layer-2 hardware base, the OFELIA project (http://www.fp7-ofelia.eu) reaches out lower to integrate optical (i.e., circuit switching) and wireless networks into the OpenFlow control framework. To do so, description languages are needed that identify port and switch capabilities and cross-layer optimization techniques may lead to unified control plane of optical (circuit switched) and packet switched networks. Unified control plane based on OpenFlow concept is an interesting and challenging goal to achieve. Further on, multidomain extensions to OpenFlow are to be investigated for large scale experiments. By breaking the vertical integration of networking gear OpenFlow allows application-specific monitoring, routing, and processing in the network rather than in the edges. Innovative ideas and applications based on OpenFlow paradigm will be presented in this workshop Presentations: OpenFlow-based Hybrid Control Plane within the CTTC ADRENALINE Testbed Ricardo Martinez, CTTC - Centre Tecnològic de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya, Spain Cross-layer Optimisation and Traffic Control for Delivering Super High Definition Video Miguel Rio, University College London, UK An Experiment Description Language for SFA-based Federated Experimental Facilities Roberto Canonico, Universita' di Napoli Federico II, Italy Real Time, Online Interactive Applications (ROIA) on OpenFlow Mike Surridge, University of Southampton, UK Extending OpenFlow to Optical Wavelength Switching – Challenges, Requirements, and Integration Models Achim Autenrieth, ADVA Optical Networks, Germany Network Protocols Testbed based on the OpenFlow Standard and NetFPGA Cards Grzegorz Danilewicz and Wojciech Kabacinski, Poznan University of Technology, Poland Overhead-free routing with OpenFlow Balazs Sonkoly, Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME), Hungary Virtualizing the Transport Network - Why it matters and how OpenFlow can help Saurav Das, Stanford University, USA
