[jrex at cs.princeton.edu (Jennifer Rexford)]

SDN is definitely an overloaded and confusing term that is used inconsistently.  Here are a few attempts to explain:

- â??The Road to SDN: An Intellectual History of Programmable Networksâ?? (ACM Queue, December 2013)
  https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2560327 <https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2560327>

- â??Abstractions for Software-Defined Networksâ?? (CACM, October 2014)

- â??From Ethane to SDN and Beyondâ?? (ACM SIGCOMM CCR, October 2019)
