This paper presents a novel approach for network slicing in 5G backhaul networks, targeting
services with low or very low latency requirements. We propose a modified A* algorithm that …

The next generation of mobile networks will support a wide range of service requirements
over a shared virtual infrastructure. Network functions virtualization (NFV) enables the …

Softwarization has been deemed as a key feature of 5G networking in the sense that the
support of network functions migrates from traditional hardware-based solutions to software …

An increasing number of 5G core network modules are being implemented in the X86 cloud
environment. Improving the modules' packet processing ability can accelerate the 5G data …

The next generation of networks will be utilized by multiple industry verticals with different
service requirements on top of a common infrastructure. Through network function …

The advent of the new generation mobile network catalyzed the appearance of new verticals
demanding a significant increase in the required spectrum resources. A promising …

End-to-End (E2E) virtual networks represent a key technology in future cellular networks.
Generally, the E2E connection means each slice has an independent part of the RAN, User …

The demand for high-speed connectivity has increased globally. The covid-19 pandemic,
which forced global lockdown and directly led to most of the global workforce to …

3GPP has recommended 5G service providers adopt Transport Layer Security (TLS) to
secure communications among different Network Functions (NFs) in 5G core network slice. It …

In modern communications, network slicing is essen-tial network operation for creating and
managing an independent logical network which meets the requirement of a service. Net …
