“…The work in [6] describes the definition and implementation of a solution for OpenFlow-based routing in WMNs and its applicability to the mobility management of mobile clients. The works in [7] and [8] provide an analysis of opportunities and research challenges arising from the application of SDN in wireless heterogeneous scenarios, including WMNs.…”

Software defined networking (SDN) provides a novel network resource management framework that overcomes several challenges related to network resources management. On the other hand, Cognitive Radio (CR) technology is a promising paradigm for addressing the spectrum scarcity problem through efficient dynamic spectrum access (DSA). CR provides unlicensed secondary users with the ability to coexist with licensed users in non-interfering mode. In this paper, we introduce a virtualization based SDN resource management framework for cognitive radio networks (CRNs). The framework uses the concept of multilayer hypervisors for efficient resources allocation. It also introduces a semidecentralized control scheme that allows the CRN base station (BS) to delegate some of the management responsibilities to the network users. CRN resource virtualization allows dynamic, infrastructure free and efficient resources allocation to the CR users. The main objectives of the proposed framework is to reduce the CR users' reliance on the CRN BS and physical network resources while improving the network performance by reducing control overhead.

“…There are several reasons behind this. Hasan et.al talks about how SDN can contribute towards better wireless networks in rural areas [1]. We believe that it is not in wireless networking alone where SDN can play a pivotal role.…”

“…Ever since its inception and creation of the first internet work, the network has been used to connect different parts of the world together for communication and resource sharing. But, though broad band internet is extensively being used for businesses, online medical consultation as well as virtual classrooms [1], the reachability of these social services is still not sufficient. According to the International Telecommunications Union's report published in October 2013, only about 41.3%of households across the world have internet access at home and only about 40% have access to internet in some form [2].…”

Software defined network has been the buzzword among networking professionals since the last few years. SDN promises to simplify network management using its three tiered architecture. Unfortunately, a significant amount of research that is going on in this field is focused on huge enterprise or datacenter networks. The social impact that this technology can bring about especially in developing countries has not been thought of. This paper discusses the societal benefits of using the concept of programmable networks in sectors such as education, healthcare and small scale enterprises. Although various issues faced by the information technology departments in the above mentioned sectors are considered, the focus is mainly on the education sector, especially in the rural areas and the concerns of the technology personnel involved in network management there. General Terms SDN, programmable networks, computer networks KeywordsSoftware defined network, SDN, Social impact.
