Title:Intent Based Networking and Intelligent Network Assurance in Next Generation Networks
Bio: Aris Leivadeas is currently an Associate Professor with the Department of Software and Information Technology Engineering at the École de Technologie Supérieure (ETS), University of Quebec, Montreal, Canada. From 2015 to 2018, he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Systems and Computer Engineering, at Carleton University, Ottawa Canada. In parallel, Aris worked as an intern at Ericsson and later on at Cisco in Ottawa, Canada. He received his diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Patras, Greece, in 2008, the M.Sc. degree in Engineering from King’s College London, UK in 2009, and the Ph.D degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens in 2015. His research interests include Network Function Virtualization, Intent Based Networking, Cloud and Edge Computing, IoT, and network optimization and management.
Abstract: Current and future network services and applications are expected to revolutionize our society and lifestyle. At the same time, the abundant possibilities that new network technologies offer to end users, network operators and administrators have created a cumbersome network configuration process to accommodate all different stakeholders and applications. Thus, lately, there is a need to simplify the management and configuration of the network, through possibly an autonomic and automatic way. Intent Based Networking (IBN) is such a paradigm that envisions flexible, agile, and simplified network configuration with minimal external intervention. This presentation will provide details of how the IBN concept works and what are the main components to guarantee a fully autonomous IBN system (IBNS). Particular emphasis will be given in network assurance, which has as a goal to autonomously trigger corrective actions, whenever the conditions of the network do not allow to fulfill the performance requirements of its users. Finally, light will be shed on the open challenges and future directions of this novel but unexplored research area.
