Media use cases for emergency services require mission-critical levels of reliability the delivery media-rich services, such as video streaming. With upcoming deployment fifth generation (5G) networks, a wide variety applications and with heterogeneous performance requirements are expected to be supported, any migration 5G networks presents significant challenges in quality service (QoS), operators. This paper novel SliceNet framework, based on advanced customizable network slicing address...
Abstract Next-generation networks are expected to combine advanced physical and digital technologies in super-high-speed connected system infrastructures, gaining critical operation competitiveness of improved efficiency, productivity quality services. Towards a fully world, these platforms will enable infrastructure virtualization support edge processing, making emerging sectors, such as Industry 4.0, ready exploit its full potentials. Nevertheless, the fast growth data-centric automated...
Abstract The diverging requirements from various vertical industries have driven the paradigm shift in next‐generation (5G) mobile networks, where network slicing has emerged as a major for this purpose by sharing and isolating resources over same 5G physical infrastructure. To truly fulfill different quality‐of‐service (QoS) imposed slices applications, it is essential to introduce programmable data plane that aware of QoS configurable enforce commitments. In paper, we focus on designing,...
Fifth generation(5G) provides one of the cornerstone features in networking, network slicing enables multiplexing virtualised logical networks over same infrastructure for multiple business services. This research work design and implementation a novel E2E slice management framework capable managing deployment slices across 5G/Pre-6G infrastructure. The contribution has been validated Industry 4.0 use cases where both horizontal vertical have validated. designed, prototyped, empirically...
The evolution from the current Fourth-Generation (4G) networks to emerging Fifth-Generation (5G) technologies implies significant changes in architecture and poses demanding requirements on network infrastructures. One of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) 5G is ensure a secure with zero downtime. In this paper, we focus provisioning protection capabilities for Our objective implement new firewall that allows detection, differentiation selective blocking traffic edge-to-core segment...
Future fifth-generation (5G) mobile networks entails architectural and network changes, mainly motivated by the idea of sharing resources between different operators, which implies a reduction costs, thanks to deployment virtualised scenarios in shared infrastructures, an improvement usability. These changes should guarantee that security 5G Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are achieved multi-tenant scenarios. The advanced architectures for emerging involves renovation elements compose...
Network Slicing is one of the fundamental capabilities new Fifth-generation (5G)networks. It defined as several logical networks that are created to fulfil specific Quality Service (QoS)and Experience (QoE)requirements and available over same physical infrastructure. This paper proposes a novel extension P4-NetFPGA framework achieve network slicing between different 5G users in edge-to-core segment. solution provides hardware-isolation performance terms bandwidth, latency packet loss...
As a fundamental technology in the Fifth-Generation (5G) mobile networks, network slicing creates multiple logical networks for various vertical businesses over same physical 5G infrastructure to achieve cost-effective service provisioning. Meanwhile, mission-critical would require very high level of guaranteed Quality Service (QoS) that is beyond software-based approaches. In this paper, we address highly demanding Smart Grid Self-Healing Automatic Reconfiguration use case ensure...
With 5G being currently deployed worldwide, research into 6G has been initiated to advance the key technologies of next level. Network slicing, as a cornerstone technology in 5G, is expected continue playing an important role guaranteeing Quality Service for various vertical business use cases with divergent yet more demanding requirements generation. This explores towards scenario where ultra-high performance backbone network slicing entailed part end-to-end solution address ultra-reliable...
The heterogeneous requirements imposed by different vertical businesses have motivated a networking paradigm shift in the next generation of mobile networks (beyond 5G and 6G), leading to critical operation competitiveness improved productivity, performance efficiency. Furthermore, with global digital revolution, such as Industry 4.0, connected world, network virtualisation together high reliability communications become crucial elements for operators. To minimise negative effects that could...
