Service Function Chain (SFC) provisioning stands as a pivotal technology in the realm of 5G and future networks. Its essence lies in orchestrating VNFs (Virtual Network Functions) in a specified sequence for different types of SFC requests.…
5G networks are going to support a variety of vertical services, with a diverse set of key performance indicators (KPIs), by using enabling technologies such as software-defined networking and network function virtualization. It is the…
Emerging Information-Centric Networking (ICN) architectures seek to optimally utilize both bandwidth and storage for efficient content distribution over the network. The Virtual Interest Packet (VIP) framework has been proposed to enable…
Next-generation systems are anticipated to be digital platforms supporting innovative services with rapidly changing traffic patterns. To cope with this dynamicity in a cost-efficient manner, operators need advanced service management…
The paradigm of network function virtualization (NFV) with the support of software defined networking (SDN) emerges as a promising approach for customizing network services in fifth generation (5G) networks. In this paper, a multicast…
Distributed cloud networking builds on network functions virtualization (NFV) and software defined networking (SDN) to enable the deployment of network services in the form of elastic virtual network functions (VNFs) instantiated over…
It is expected that the next generation cellular networks provide a connected society with fully mobility to empower the socio-economic transformation. Several other technologies will benefits of this evolution, such as Internet of Things,…
In a multi-tenant service network, multiple virtual service networks (VSNs), one for each tenant, coexist on the same service network. The tenants themselves need to be able to dynamically create and customize their own VSNs to support…
Digital Twin (DT) is a prominent technology to utilise and deploy within the healthcare sector. Yet, the main challenges facing such applications are: Strict health data-sharing policies, high-performance network requirements, and possible…
The Network Function Virtualization (NFV) paradigm has been devised as an enabler of next generation network infrastructures by speeding up the provisioning and the composition of novel network services. The latter are implemented via a…
Modern manufacturing systems require adaptive computing infrastructures that can respond to highly dynamic workloads and increasingly customized production demands. The compute continuum emerges as a promising solution, enabling flexible…
Deploying services efficiently while satisfying their quality requirements is a major challenge in network slicing. Effective solutions place instances of the services' virtual network functions (VNFs) at different locations of the cellular…
Network slicing offers an opportunity to realize ICN as a slice in 5G deployment. We demonstrate this through a generic service orchestration framework operating on commodity compute, storage and bandwidth resource pool to realize multiple…
With CPU scaling slowing down in today's data centers, more functionalities are being offloaded from the CPU to auxiliary devices. One such device is the SmartNIC, which is being increasingly adopted in data centers. In today's cloud…
