The Engineering of Software-Defined Quantum Key Distribution Networks
Alejandro Aguado, Victor Lopez, Diego Lopez +5
Quantum computers will change the cryptographic panorama. A technology once believed to lay far away into the future is increasingly closer to real world applications. Quantum comp…
Optical Network Virtualisation using Multi-technology Monitoring and SDN-enabled Optical Transceiver
Yanni Ou, Matthew Davis, Alejandro Aguado +3
We introduce the real-time multi-technology transport layer monitoring to facilitate the coordinated virtualisation of optical and Ethernet networks supported by optical virtualise…
First Experimental Demonstration of Secure NFV Orchestration over an SDN-Controlled Optical Network with Time-Shared Quantum Key Distribution Resources
Alejandro Aguado, Emilio Hugues-Salas, Paul Anthony Haigh +10
We demonstrate, for the first time, a secure optical network architecture that combines NFV orchestration and SDN control with quantum key distribution (QKD) technology. A novel ti…
