A Solution for QoS Provisioning in VoIP Services on the OpenFlow Platform

Abstract

Software Defined Networks are a novel paradigm that enables the introduction of innovations without disrupting everyday use through the OpenFlow standard. Providing end-to-end QoS is still a major problem for the success of certain services in heterogeneous systems used in telecommunications, such as multimedia. This work proposes a technique to provide end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) through the control and efficient reallocation of resources in Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic using the OpenFlow standard. This work also presents a performance evaluation of the proposed technique.
