The online course "Software Defined Networking", by Prof. Nick Feamster (Princeton University), will start in September, and is now accepting applications. It’s completely free, and you can enroll at https://www.coursera.org/learn/sdn
This course has been known as having a very distinguished program. It covers SDN from the basics (origins and foundations), goes through the OpenFlow protocol (as well as controllers and other OF stuff), and last time, it even introduced data plane programming with P4 language, as well as some 'hot topics' involving Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) (e.g: Service Function Chaining).
The main highlight of this course is it high-level of practical activities, which includes using Python together with Mininet simulator to solve interesting networking problems from an SDN perspective.
Software Defined Networking from Princeton University. In this course, you will learn about software defined networking and how it is changing the way communications networks are managed, maintained, and secured. Take free online classes from 140+ top universities and educational organizations. We p...

Moreno et al. [including Ted Meeds and Max Welling] recently arXived (http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.08549) a paper merging variational inference and ABC. The argument for turning variational is computational speedup. The traditional (in variational inference) divergence decomposition of the log-marginal likelihood is replaced by an ABC version, parameterised in terms of intrinsic generators (i.e., generators that do not depend on cyber-parameters, like the U(0,1) or the N(0,1) generators). Or simulation code in the authors’ terms. Which leads to the automatic aspect of the approach. In the paper the derivation of the gradient is indeed automated.
