The 5G network solutions currently standardised and deployed do not yet enable the full
potential of pervasive networking and computing envisioned in 5G initial visions: network …

With the expansion of 5G networks, new business models are arising where multi-tenancy
and active infrastructure sharing will be key enablers for them. With these new opportunities …

The emergent Zero touch Service and Management (ZSM) paradigm aims to automate the
orchestration and management of running network slices, in Beyond 5G networks (B5G) …

The promise of disparate features envisioned by the 3GPP for 5G, such as offering
enhanced Mobile Broadband connectivity while providing massive Machine Type …

While 5G is well-known for network cloudification with micro-service based architecture, the
next generation networks or the 6G era is closely coupled with intelligent network …

The vital importance of securing 5G and beyond networks while meeting their stringent
performance requirements has promoted the recent shift towards fully automated and smart …

In this position paper, we discuss the critical need for integrating zero trust (ZT) principles
into next-generation communication networks (5G/6G). We highlight the challenges and …

6G systems are expected to serve a massive number of extremely heterogeneous network
slices that cross multiple technological domains (ie, RAN, edge, cloud, and core), posing …

5G networks are highly distributed, built on an open service-based architecture that requires
multi-vendor hardware and software development environments, all of which create a high …

The vision of the upcoming 6G technologies, characterized by ultra-dense networks, low
latency, and fast data rate, is to support pervasive artificial intelligence (PAI) using zero …
