The recent increase in the use of mobile devices is a reality worldwide, impacting on all social spheres. Therefore, techniques to provide a seamless mobility with efficiency, high availability, and security become increasingly necessary. This Use Case intends to leverage this scenario, offering the infrastructure for shared network experimentation. The main goal is to analyse and utilize the capabilities of wireless networks to augment the seamless handoffs experience on networks formed by mobile users (people using smartphones, tablets, netbooks, and notebooks). In particular, to exploit programmability to perform multipath communication to support various levels of mobility. Moreover, to study, deploy and extend OMF to share large scale distributed mobile networks to be used by various network/wireless researchers. |

High definition content delivery across different sites |
This Use Case takes advantage of the functionalities provided by the OpenFlow Control Plane. In particular, it exploits the flexibility provided by OpenFlow and Flow Routing to properly distribute the traffic and load balance requests from clients/users of a high-definition video streaming service between delivery sites (CDSs placed in different locations).
