The framework has been evaluated by the SDN emulator "Mininet": http://mininet.org/ with POX as a network operating system (controller): https://github.com/noxrepo/pox/
Fig.1:Framework architecture
The network is modelled as an undirected graph G(V,E), hence, we utilised the NetworkX tool, https://networkx.github.io/, (version 1.11). Waxman.brite topology has been created via BRITE tool: https://www.cs.bu.edu/brite/ and parsed by the FNSS simulator: https://fnss.github.io/ to represent the data plane topology.
