Abstract:
As a new type of network architecture, software defined network (SDN) breaks the closed mode of traditional network, realizes the separation between forwarding and control, and therefore can effectively solve a series of problems of the current Internet. Taking advantage of economic principles and according to the characteristics of the traditional auction model, we propose a price negotiation algorithm, namely multi-homing combinatorial double auction model (MCDAM) algorithm, to curb the waste of SDN resources. MCDAM can solve the problem of reasonable transaction price between the buyers and sellers, make the price as a lever to achieve the purpose of SDN resources reasonable allocation. Simulation results illustrate the superiority and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.
