Course Overview

Software-defined networking (SDN) has recently attracted both researchers in academia and big players in communication technologies, and is currently probably the 'hottest' topic in computer networking. This course will introduce SDN in both its theoretical concepts as well as in practical hands-on lectures, in which students will be required to implement SDN applications.

Note: Unlike previous editions, this edition of the SDN block course will be a single course that covers both basics and more advanced concepts of SDN. The course will take one full week (i.e., 7 days) of teaching. In addition to the lectures and practical sessions, students will be required to read and present relevant research papers in a seminar to be held after the course.

Note: Due to limited seats, this course requires in-advance registration. Registrations will open soon, please regularly check this website for updates.
