In order to efficaciously prepare, control, hold and optimize networking systems, greater intelligence needs to be deployed. However, due to the inherently dispensed characteristic of conventional networks, Machine Learning (ML) techniques are hard to implement and deployed to govern and operate networks. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) brings us new possibilities to offer intelligence in the networks. SDN’s characteristics (e.g., logically centralized control, global network view, software-based site visitor analysis, and dynamic updating of forwarding rules) make it simpler to apply machine learning strategies. Various perspectives of fiber-optic communications including fiber nonlinearity coverage, optical performance checking, cognitive shortcoming detection/anticipation, and arranging and improvement of software-defined networks are examined in Machine Learning (ML) applications. This research paper has presented an imaginative framework concept called Intelligent Software Defined Network (ISDN) for Cognitive Routing Optimization (CRO) using Deep Extreme Learning Machine (DELM) approach (ISDN-CRO-DELM) in light of the new challenges in the development and operation of communication systems, and capturing motivation from how living creatures deal with difficulty and usability. The proposed methodology develops around the planned applications of progressive DELM methods and, specifically, probabilistic generative models for framework wide learning, demonstrating, improvement, and information description. Furthermore, ISDN-CRO-DELM, suggest to integrate this learning framework with the ISDN for CRO and reconfiguration approaches at the system level. MATLAB 2019a is used for DELM simulation and superior results show the effectiveness of the proposed framework.}, DOI = {10.32604/cmc.2021.013303} }
