Abstract:<p>Elephant flow (elephant) classification is significant for network performance management and resource optimization. Classifying elephants over Software Defined Networks (SDNs) often relies on statistics counted by switches and transferred to controllers, leading to a huge control channel bandwidth occupation that degrades network latency and user experience. Classifying elephants using flow packets forwarded to controllers completely avoids moving statistics from switches to controllers, but couples … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
