We analyse the impact of Network Slicing (NS) on the performance of a packet-switched
xHaul transport network carrying the radio data traffic in a 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) …

The ever demanding bandwidth requirements for supporting emerging telecom services
such as ultra-high-definition video streaming, cloud computing, connected car …

5G networks are characterized by massive device connectivity, supporting a wide range of
novel applications with their diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. This poses a …

The 5G mobile network will rely on network slicing to provide a wide variety of services with
various quality of service (QoS) requirements. Network slicing is promoted by 3GPP and …

Multiband elastic optical network (MB-EON) technology can help to sustain exponential
traffic growth in the optical backbone network. However, multiband operation creates high …

We present and experimentally assess a multi-tenant network slicing architecture that
dynamically provides 5G slices (virtual network and cloud resources, and virtualized network …

Even a wider set of highly critical and latency-sensitive applications with resource needs
from the access network and the edge will be supported by the 6G networks. Therefore, the …

Nowadays networks are the basis of our communication providing a great number of
