Title: Modern Networkingin a virtualized IT world

Abstract: Networking industry is experiencing a huge transformation these days, in spite of being one of the pilars of IT systems its evolution diverged from computing some years ago and nowadays it is trying to reconverge again embedding (open) software into their architecture and operation principles.
