In this paper, we introduce SCOR (Software-defined Constrained Optimal Routing), a new Software Defined Networking (SDN) Northbound Interface for QoS routing and traffic engineering. SCOR is based on constraint-programming techniques and is implemented in the MiniZinc modelling language. It provides a powerful, high-level abstraction layer, consisting of 10 basic constraint-programming predicates. A key feature of SCOR is that it is declarative, where only the constraints and utility function of the routing problem need to be expressed, and the complexity of solving the problem is hidden from the user, and handled by a powerful generic solver. We show that the interface (set of predicates) of SCOR is sufficiently expressive to handle all the known and relevant QoS routing problems. We further demonstrate the practicality and scalability of the approach via a number of example scenarios, with varying network topologies, network sizes and number of flows.

The implementation of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology is on the increase because of its ability to enhance operating efficiency and reduce infrastructure cost. Voice and data packets traverse over IP networks with fixed maximum capacity. But susceptibility to traffic congestion which results in delay and packet losses is still a major challenge of VoIP technology. Multiprotocol Label Switching Protocol (MPLS) with Traffic Engineering (TE) is an approved standard technology that has the capabilities to minimize network congestion and improve network performance by reducing delay and packet loss to yield a higher throughput. In this paper, we investigate how MPLS Traffic Engineering can be implemented to reduce traffic congestion on VoIP networks.
