| Omschrijving | The softwarization of networks is nowadays a key driver for innovations in the telecommunications industry, the management of network service providers, and data center networks. While network functionality traditionally is hardcoded in the network appliances (e.g., routers and switches), Software Defined Networking (SDN) allows introducing new functionality and new ways of programming and managing computer networks and networked and data driven applications. This course deals with topics covering a wide range of topics in the area of software defined networking: • SDN Data Plane • SDN Control Plane • SDN Application Plane • Network Function Virtualization • Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) in SDN |

| Toetsvorm |
Opdracht (AST), Practisch werk (PR), Schriftelijk tentamen (WE)
(Students must pass the written exam with a score >=5.5; assignments and programming labs are counted if they can improve the grade of the student, i.e., Let E: exam grade, H: homework grade (HW assignments + HW programming), G: final grade If E>=5.5: G = max(E, 0.7*E + 0.3*H) Else: G = E Grades for homeworks will be acknowledged for all resits in the same study year.) |
