We advance a performability assessment of a multi-tenant containerized IP Multimedia Subsystem (cIMS), ie: one and the same infrastructure is shared among different providers …
The failure of a single network element composing a Service Function Chain (SFC) unavoidably leads to some degradation in terms of availability (ability of guaranteeing …
As a case study of a novel approach to characterize service chains in terms of performance and availability, we consider a containerized IP Multimedia Subsystem (cIMS) infrastructure …
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) represents a crucial element for the convergence of telecommunication systems heading towards 5G solutions. Actually, IMS offers a …
Nowadays, telecom providers may benefit from the flexibility offered by Network Function Virtualization (NFV) paradigm that allows to decouple the service logic from the underlying …

The Next Generation 5G Networks can greatly benefit from the synergy between virtualization paradigms, such as the Network Function Virtualization (NFV), and service …
As of today, telecommunication providers are exploiting the possibilities offered by the cloud paradigm to efficiently decouple physical network resources, like hardware equipment …
Nowadays, most telecommunication services adhere to the Service Function Chain (SFC) paradigm, where network functions are implemented via software. In particular, container …
Service provisioning mechanisms implemented across 5G infrastructures take broadly into use the network service chain concept. Typically, it is coupled with Network Function …
