Evaluation of the abstraction of optical topology models in blockchain-based data center interconnection

2022 - Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, Vol. 14, Issue 4, pp. 211 - 221
Data center (DC) interconnection allows us to have optical transmissions between DCs directly connected to optical networks, avoiding the use of a packet-based infrastructure.

End-to-End Network Slice Stitching using Blockchain-based Peer-to-Peer Network Slice Managers and Transport SDN Controllers

2021 Optical Fiber Communications Conference and Exhibition (OFC2021)
This paper presents and experimentally validates a Blockchain-based architecture to manage End-to-End Network Slice Deployment by stitching Network Slice Subnets in edge/cloud computing domains connected through packet/optical transport networks domains managed by different operators.

Multi-layer Transport Network Slicing with Hard and Soft Isolation

2021 Optical Fiber Communications Conference and Exhibition (OFC2021)
We validate the deployment of isolated transport network slices in IP over DWDM network. To this end, an isolated transport network slice is deployed using multi-layer isolation mechanisms based on OpenConfig and ONF Transport API.

Blockchain-Based Connectivity Provisioning in Multiple Transport SDN Domains

2021 International Conference on Optical Network Design and Modeling (ONDM2021)
Hierarchical Software Define Networking (SDN) architectures is used to manage the co-existence of multiple domains by having an element on top. A collaborative relation-ship between domains, might solve this issue. Blockchain may become the key element for this change to happen.
