Software Defined Networking ? Shaping up for the next disruptive step?

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) removes the limitations of current network infrastructures by separating the control plane from the data forwarding plane. Networks can be managed more cost-effectively and autonomously through centralising decision-making and programmability.This opens up markets for infrastructure providers to provision and offer network resources on-demand to multiple tenants and for service providers to develop and deploy their services on shared infrastructure resources...

Internet of Things for smart homes and buildings

Pervasive sensing facilitated by Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) technologies offers the integration of modern technology into daily routine. The smart sensing approach offers the ability to sense ambient parameters and the use of different objects in the urban environment. The WSNs with the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud computing are producing smart home solutions. This research work aims to develop smart home and building solutions based on IoT and cloud computing. The...
