Systematically testing OpenFlow controller applications

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Peter Peresini, Maciej Leszek Kuzniar, Jennifer Rexford

The emergence of OpenFlow-capable switches enables exciting new network functionality, at the risk of programming errors that make communication less reliable. The centralized programming model, where a single controller program manages the network, seems ...

Expected Loss Analysis for Authentication in Constrained Channels

Serge Vaudenay, Christos Dimitrakakis, Aikaterini Mitrokotsa

We derive bounds on the expected loss for authentication protocols in channels which are constrained due to noisy conditions and communication costs. This is motivated by a number of authentication protocols, where at least some part of the authentication ...
