Fog computing, combined with traditional cloud computing, offers an inherently distributed
infrastructure–referred to as the cloud-to-edge continuum–that can be used for the execution …

Cloud-network slicing is a promising approach to serve vertical industries delivering their
services over multiple administrative and technological domains. However, there are …

The upcoming 5G networks promise to provide end-to-end network service delivery that
spans across Cloud-Network federated multi-domains while providing monolithic service …

Network slicing is a key element in 5G networks. It allows a mobile network operator (MNO)
to offer multiple logical networks tailored to the requirements of different industry verticals …

This work sets out by exploiting the NECOS Cloud-Network Slicing concept to form the
Cloud-to-Things continuum. We adopt the Network-Slicing Management and Orchestration …

Network slicing will permit offering to vertical customers tailored end-to-end logical networks
in an on-demand fashion, on top of a common telecom infrastructure, achieving a Slices-as …

Isolation is one of the more relevant attributes associated to the idea of network slicing,
introduced by 5G services. Through isolation it is expected that slices from different …

This doctoral thesis presents a set of proposals that provide solutions to some of the
problems and unresolved challenges related to management and orchestration of network …
