Traceroute application in Software Defined Networking(SDN) Projects
PROJECT 1: DATA ANALYTICS OF CYBER PHYSICAL SYSTEMS The project conducted an analytic study for a given dataset. Machine learning algorithms such as decision tree, support vector machines acquire a model from the sample data. The model developed is used to generate appropriate predictions within given uncertainty limit. The project used the machine learning functionalities included in the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox in Matlab, a computing platform developed by Math Works, Incorporation.
PROJECT 2: TRACEROUTE APPLICATION FOR SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKING This project developed a traceroute application for a software-defined network to monitor the path the packets take through the network. This application was developed using a Floodlight controller. Python was used to configure the switches and nodes within the topology as well as generating protocol requests for the application. Mininet emulator was used to create the virtual topology needed for the project. The packet information through which the application runs a trace was captured using Wireshark. PROJECT 3: DIGITAL ADDRESSABLE LIGHTING INTERFACE (DALI) DALI is a technology aimed to generate a lighting control, which helps dim the light rather than an ON/OFF situation. It has master-salve architecture, and every light source is linked with a sensor to obtain a feedback on the intensity of light. DALI can be used in building automation systems, and it can be integrated into existing structures.
PROJECT 4: TELEPHONE BASED REMOTE CONTROLLER
The project was aimed at being able to control the functioning of various appliances using a telephone line, by de-multiplexing the DTMF signal using a decoder. The signal is converted to BCD format, which is given as input to the respective appliances through, flip-flops and relays.
