Beyond The Hype

The work presented in this paper outlines the role of Optical Transport Networks (OTNs) in future networking generations. Furthermore, key emerging OTN technologies are discussed. Additionally, the role intelligence will play in the Management and Orchestration (MANO) of next-generation OTNs is discussed. Moreover, a set of challenges and opportunities for innovation to guide the development of future OTNs is considered.

Herein, a method to find security strategies for intrusion prevention in SDP network is presented based on modeling the interaction between an attacker and an SDP Controller as a stochastic game. These security strategies evolve through reinforcement learning and can emerge from self-play.
