  • Abstract
    Software Defined Networks (SDN) is an emergent architecture that is dynamic, flexible, manageable, low cost, consistent with the dynamics of the modern applications. This paper shows a network representation model using a graph as the control plane of an SDN controller. The graph approach provides a globally consistent view of the network in real time. Our experiments show that graphs are a reliable representation of the real network, simplifying management in Software Defined Networking.
