Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alalmaei, S., Elkhatib, Y., Bezahaf, M., Broadbent, M., & Race, N. (2020). Sdn heading north: Towards a declarative intent-based northbound interface. In 2020 16th International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM). https://doi.org/10.2391

The Intent-Based Northbound Interface (NBI) offers users the ability to express what they want to achieve instead of how to achieve it, enabling improvements to network management and reducing operational costs. However, development of an Intent-Base... Read More about Sdn heading north: Towards a declarative intent-based northbound interface.

Impact of Content Popularity on Content Finding in NDN: Default NDN vs. Vicinity-based Enhanced NDN (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Suwannasa, A., Broadbent, M., & Mauthe, A. (2020). Impact of Content Popularity on Content Finding in NDN: Default NDN vs. Vicinity-based Enhanced NDN. In 2020 10th International Conference on Information Science and Technology (ICIST) (163-168). https:/

Named Data Networking allows a consumer to locate a desired content object by its name prefix. By using the best route strategy of the default NDN architecture, an Interest packet is forwarded along a default path indicated by the packet's name to fi...

From One Edge to the Other: Exploring Gaming's Rising Presence on the Network (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marsden, M., Hazas, M., & Broadbent, M. (2020). From One Edge to the Other: Exploring Gaming's Rising Presence on the Network. In ICT4S2020: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on ICT for Sustainability (247-254). https://doi.org/10.1145/3401

Audio and video streaming and on-demand services have dramatically changed how, and how much, media is consumed. Streaming generally allows a much larger selection of content, and arguably greater convenience. Gaming is the latest medium to place del...

In Named Data Networking (NDN) architectures, a content object is located according to the content's identifier and can be retrieved from all nodes that hold a replica of the content. The default forwarding strategy of NDN is to forward an Interest p... Read More about Vicinity-based replica finding in named data networking.

Self-generated intent-based system (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bezahaf, M., Hernandez, M. P., Bardwell, L., Davies, E., Broadbent, M., King, D., & Hutchison, D. (2020). Self-generated intent-based system. In 2019 10th International Conference on Networks of the Future (NoF) (138-140). https://doi.org/10.1109/NoF4774

We propose an intent-based system where, on top of the user intentions, the system itself generates suitable Quality of Service and resilience parameters and may augment the intent characteristics if it detects any room for improvement. We demonstrat... Read More about Self-generated intent-based system.
