The global view enabled by a Software Defined Network (SDN) architecture allows us to observe the contribution of each congested router to the overall Mean Opinion Score (MOS) degradation of a VoIP service. Thus, when a number of routers in the path may add to the MOS degradation, the SDN controller can quantify the contribution […]
