Instructions

Read and critically analyze this week’s assigned readings related to the challenges and issues that exist within the SDN space. Select a technical challenge, issue, consideration, or other topic from this week’s readings, or from last week’s research, that is an open research question requiring additional research to address. Write a problem statement in which you address the items below.

·         What is the problem that should be addressed with additional research (i.e., what is going wrong)? Support the existence of the problem with at least three recent references.

·         What is the impact of the problem? That is, how are the victims (field of study, researchers, practitioners, industry, civilians, etc.) negatively affected by the problem, when is the problem evident, and where does the issue exist or become obvious? Provide an example of the problem in action or as experienced by those affected by it. Support the impact of the problem with at least three recent references.

·         Why does the problem exist? Why has it not been previously solved? If the issue has been addressed, why does the issue continue to exist? Discuss the conceptual basis, the nature of the problem, and outline of the problem as defined by the literature. Support underlying cause of the problem with at least three recent peer-reviewed references.

Length: 5-7 pages not including title and reference pages

References: At least 5 scholarly peer-reviewed sources in addition to this week’s readings (8 total)

Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University's Academic Integrity Policy.

Software Defined Networks: Introduction

Web Page

For the first part of this week’s material, we will make sure that you are familiar with a basic concept of networking: the open systems interconnection (OSI) model. Network communication does not happen by magic; it requires several layers and components in order to ensure that data is efficiently and effectively transported across frequently vast distances. This is done by using the OSI model. There are seven layers that comprise the OSI model:

Now that you are familiar with the OSI model, we can move onto more advanced topics in computer networking. As with most technical areas, software defined networks are constantly evolving and frequently encounter unique and sometimes difficult challenges. As a leader in technology, it will frequently be up to you to properly address and mitigate these challenges. Technical, personnel and business challenges are just some of the hurdles you may need to overcome.

This week, you will continue the research of software defined networks by identifying and critically analyzing the challenges, issues, and open research questions that exist within its development, implementation, and application.

Review this week's resources carefully. You are expected to apply the information from these resources when you prepare your assignments.
