Network slicing is one of the fundamental tenets Fifth Generation (5G)/Sixth (6G) networks. Deploying slices requires end-to-end (E2E) control services and underlying resources in a network substrate featuring an increasing number stakeholders. Beyond technical difficulties this entails, there long list administrative negotiations among parties that do not necessarily trust each other, which often costly manual processes, including legal construction neutral entities. In context, Blockchain...
An Intrabody Nanonetwork (IBNN) is composed of integrated nanoscale devices, implanted inside the human body to collect diagnostic information and tuning medical treatments.
