This workshop brings together members of the research community and representatives from companies that are deploying software defined networks (SDN). The researchers are leaders from both the academic and industrial research communities. The industrial representatives are part of the Open Network User Group (ONUG). The ONUG community includes financial institutions and other enterprises that have extremely large-scale networks, deploy SDN in their production networks and have real-time and security requirements that are more stringent than many other large-scale networks. They have not interacted with the research community in the past, but now are willing to participate in an open workshop. Including participants who have first-hand experience deploying SDN will enhance the workshop with valuable insights that are not generally available to researchers. The companies, especially the financial companies, while retaining proprietary information about their networks, are willing to discuss the architecture, scale, technologies, the use of SDN, and the problems they face. The workshop will introduce researchers to a community with which there has been little interaction. The research community will gain valuable insight into aspects of SDN that are already implemented and problems that remain to be solved. Intellectual Merit: By interacting with early adopters of Software Defined Networking (SDN) technologies who are deploying SDN in extremely large-scale enterprise networks, the research community will gain valuable insight into aspects of SDN that are already implemented and fundamental research problems, especially in the areas of real-time, scale, and security, that remain to be solved. The companies would in turn gain from resulting research solutions. Broader Impacts: The workshop is important because it connects the researcher community with an industry that is leading the adoption and use of SDN, but which has not interacted with researchers in the past. Three extra slots at the workshop are for PhD students from under-represented groups.

本次研讨会汇集了研究界成员和正在部署软件定义网络(SDN)的公司的代表。研究人员是学术和工业研究领域的领导者。业界代表是开放网络用户组(ONUG)的一部分。联格行动社区包括拥有超大规模网络、在其生产网络中部署SDN并具有比许多其他大型网络更严格的实时和安全要求的金融机构和其他企业。他们过去没有与研究界互动，但现在愿意参加一个开放的研讨会。将具有部署SDN第一手经验的参与者包括在内，将使研讨会具有研究人员通常无法获得的有价值的见解。这些公司，尤其是金融公司，在保留有关其网络的专有信息的同时，愿意讨论其架构、规模、技术、SDN的使用以及它们面临的问题。研讨会将把研究人员介绍给一个几乎没有互动的社区。研究界将对SDN已经实施的方面和有待解决的问题获得宝贵的见解。智力优势：通过与在超大规模企业网络中部署SDN的软件定义网络(SDN)技术的早期采用者互动，研究界将获得对SDN已经实施的方面和有待解决的基础研究问题的宝贵见解，特别是在实时、规模和安全领域。这些公司反过来将从由此产生的研究解决方案中受益。更广泛的影响：研讨会之所以重要，是因为它将研究人员社区与一个引领采用和使用SDN的行业联系起来，但该行业过去从未与研究人员互动。研讨会上有三个额外的名额是为来自代表性不足群体的博士生提供的。
