Flexible Flow Converging: A Systematic Case Study on Forwarding Plane Programmability of Protocol-Oblivious Forwarding (POF)

It is known that software-defined networking (SDN) can support effective traffic engineering (TE) with the global view of networks. Hence, OpenFlow was used to realize flow-based TE. However, there is a tradeoff between the volume of installed flow entries and the granularity of TE. Moreover, the pr...
