Lets look at the conclusion and the overall impact of the BRIGHT framework. We have demonstrated that integrating Bayesian uncertainty modeling with reinforcement learning creates a powerful, adaptive solution for network monitoring. BRIGHT moves beyond static optimization by continuously learning and adapting its measurement strategy to the current network state. The experimental results confirm significant practical benefits. BRIGHT reduces monitoring overhead by 50 to 70 percent compared to state-of-the-art methods, which frees up critical control-plane resources. This efficiency gain translates directly into improved effective link utilization, ensuring more network capacity is available for user data. Crucially, we achieve this efficiency while maintaining or even improving traffic-matrix estimation accuracy. BRIGHTs ability to adapt intelligently to bursty traffic is perhaps its most important feature, ensuring stable performance even under dynamic conditions. These improvements mean network operators can deploy fine-grained monitoring in large-scale SDN environments without incurring prohibitive costs or manual tuning. Looking ahead, we plan to extend BRIGHT to multi-controller deployments for greater scalability and integrate it with other SDN applications like routing and resource allocation. Thank you for your time. I am now happy to take any questions.
