An Overview of 5G Slicing Operational Business Models for Internet of Vehicles, Maritime IoT Applications and Connectivity Solutions
Identification of ecosystems and Business Models (BM) is an important starting point for new complex system development. The definition of actor (or stakeholder) roles and their interactions (at both business and technical levels), together with target scenarios and use cases, provide essential input information for further system requirement collection and architecture specification. The powerful and flexible Fifth Generation (5G) network slicing technology, which is capable of creating virtually isolated and logically parallel networks, enables a large range of complex services and vertical applications. Although various terminologies and models have been proposed in recent years for BMs …
Optimal Service Placement with QoS Monitoring in NFV and Slicing Enabled 5G IoT Networks
Network function virtualization (NFV) and network slicing are two promising enabling technologies for 5G networks. Considering the volume of data traffic generated by Internet of things (IoT) applications and their service requirement diversity as well as that network resources are spread across different locations, it is imperative to find solutions for optimal service placement and resource allocation for quality of service (QoS) provisioning. In this paper, we address the challenges of optimal network service placement with active QoS monitoring in NFV and network slicing enabled 5G IoT networks and propose a network architecture with optimal computation and resource placement over core,…
