“…In this regard, job execution time and network traffic are reduced. Finally, studying the role of meta‐heuristics and nature‐inspired algorithms such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm, imperialist competitive algorithm, ant colony optimization (ACO), memetic algorithm, bee colony algorithm, world cup optimization algorithm with the combination of fuzzy logic, and neural networks are very interesting lines for future research.…”

Peer-to-peer (P2P) network is a distributed network in which nodes with similar capabilities exchange information with each other. Due to the nature of the P2P network distribution, numerous network message transformation is required to exchange the data between nodes over the network, which may increase access latency. Because of the high amount of the stored data in the P2P networks, the replication of data is very important. A large amount of data is handled using data replication to increase data access, reduce access latency, and increase data availability. This issue has an important role in the P2P networks, but there is no complete and systematic research in this field. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive study of data replication mechanisms in the P2P networks. The 1027 papers have been identified and have been reduced to 213 main studies using the paper selection process. Moreover, in this paper, the major advances are reviewed in four main groups (structured, unstructured, super-peer, and hybrid networks), and the new challenges are also highlighted. Moreover, the open issues and guidelines for future studies are presented.

“…That is, a fair compromise between the two contradictory goals cannot be achieved. The second is to use an intelligent optimization algorithm to determine the optimal solution [24]. This method obtains an approximate optimal non-inferior solution set and cannot acquire an accurate optimal solution.…”

Static multi-controller deployment architecture cannot adapt to the drastic changes of network traffic, which will lead to a load imbalance between controllers, resulting in a high packet loss rate, high latency, and other network performance degradation problems. In this paper, an efficient dynamic load balancing scheme based on Nash bargaining is proposed for a distributed software-defined network. Firstly, considering the connectivity of network nodes, the switch migration problem is transformed into a network mapping relationship reconstruction problem. Then, we establish the Nash bargaining game model to fairly optimize the two contradictory goals of migration cost and load balance. Finally, the model is solved by an improved firefly algorithm, and the optimal network mapping state is obtained. The experimental results show that this scheme can optimize the migration cost and load balance at the same time. Compared with the existing research schemes, the migration process of the switch is optimized, and, while effectively balancing the load of the control plane, the migration cost is reduced by 14.5%.

“…Thus, utilizing SDN to achieve better QoS will be the best solution for any other systems such as light weight control (LCD)‐based WSN . In the SDN, the load balancing problem is resolved by introducing a meta‐heuristic technique such as ant colony optimization (ACO), GA, and particle swarm optimization (PSO) …”

Software defined wireless sensor network (SDWSN) is a recent evolution in networking that improves network performance and scalability. However, Quality of Service (QoS) and security are major the issues in SDWSN due to inefficient route selection (traffic load minimization algorithm) and insecure cryptography scheme (homomorphic algorithm). This paper proposes novel three-tier architecture for secure cluster-based SDWSN (SeC-SDWSN) environment to ensure QoS and security for WSN using SDN. In the first tier, sensor nodes are segregated into multiple clusters by secure hash tree-based clustering (SHTC) algorithm. Within each secure cluster, data transmission is performed through optimal route selected by adaptive spider monkey optimization (ASMO) algorithm in which two new fitness factors ( F 1 , F 2 ) are formulated by multiple QoS metrics. For data security, parallel advanced encryption standard with cipher block chaining (PAES-CBC) algorithm is proposed. Aggregated ciphertext is transmitted to optimal switch in the second tier by using fuzzy weighted technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (FW-TOPSIS) algorithm according to selection criteria. Switches forward the data to sink node based on flow rules deployed by SDN controllers in the third tier. SDN controllers provide global view on the entire network and deploy flow rules on switches in accordance to network status and security level. Extensive simulation in ns-3 shows that the proposed three-tier architecture achieves 5% throughput improvement, 7.8% PDR improvement, and 16% energy consumption improvement.
