Predictive Forwarding Rule Caching for Latency Reduction in Dynamic SDN.

In mission-critical environments such as industrial and military settings, the use of unmanned vehicles is on the rise. These scenarios typically involve a ground control system (GCS) and nodes such as unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The GCS and nodes exchange different types of information, including control data that direct unmanned vehicle movements and sensor data that capture real-world environmental conditions.
