In this chapter, we take a radical, yet peer–compatible, approach to
tackle these problems inherent to WSNs. A software-defined WSN
architecture (see Figure 6.3) can be used to address key technical
challenges for its core component, Sensor OpenFlow.
Discussion and Conclusion
We discussed the architecture and performance of the controller in
SDNs and provided a comparison and a summary. In detail, we first
introduced the framework of SDNs, and then we described the con-
troller in SDNs. We summarized the new techniques and challenges
in recent years about this area, and then we illustrated two areas of
implementations: in Ethernet and in WSNs.
