Abstract

Recently, Software Defined Network (SDN) paradigm has been viewed as a promising solution that can help creating and designing more efficient intelligent solutions for smart city projects. By splitting the control and data planes, SDN presents an efficient methodology to overcome compatibility, interoperability and scalability issues. In this paper, we introduce the smart city concept and further conduct an analysis of the challenges facing smart cities. We also present a general overview of research that focuses on leveraging the benefits of software-defined networking in specific applications domains of smart cities that has been carried out to date. Furthermore, we discuss the associated potential issues that need to be addressed.
