Making Software-defined Networks Semantic
Todor Cooklev · 2015
Abstract: This position paper identifies the increasing role of the controller in radios and radio networks. The paper defines wireless software-defined networks. A new cognitive radio ontology is proposed that is a hierarchical abstract description of the communication/networking scenario, RF devices, policies, and tasks. Radio protocols can also be described in a similar way. The ontology provides awareness and supports reasoning by the controller and applies to any RF device. Directions for future work are also briefly discussed.
