Research Area:  Software Defined Networks
Software defined network (SDN) is one of the most interesting research topic that is currently being investigated. The inclusion of artificial intelligence (AI) can improve the performance of routing protocols. Nowadays the application of AI over routing protocols is only applied to real devices, especially in wireless sensor nodes. In this paper, we present a new proposal to implement an intelligent routing protocol in a SDN topology. The intelligent routing protocol is based on the reinforcement learning process that allows choosing the best data transmission paths according to the best criteria and based on the network status.
