Demonstration of Hierarchical SDN Orchestration for End-to-End Key Provisioning in Large-Scale Quantum Key Distribution Networks

연구 분야: Cryptography

학회: 2023 21st International Conference on Optical Communications and Networks (ICOCN)

We experimentally demonstrate end-to-end key provisioning among multiple QKDNs with a hierarchical SDN orchestration architecture, where the computational complexity is reduced via abstracted hierarchical network views and the seconds-level latency without manual intervention is achieved.
