Recent natural disasters have revealed that emergency networks presently cannot
disseminate the necessary disaster information, making it difficult to deploy and coordinate …

Network connectivity, ie, the reachability of any network node from all other nodes, is often
considered as the default network survivability metric against failures. However, in the case …

This paper addresses Connectivity-aware Virtual Network Embedding (CoViNE) problem,
which consists in embedding a virtual network (VN) on a substrate network while ensuring …

Optical sensing that integrates communication and sensing functions is playing a more and
more important role in both military and civil applications. Incorporating optical sensing and …

Several works shed light on the vulnerability of networks against regional failures, which are
failures of multiple pieces of equipment in a geographical region as a result of a natural or …

Virtual Network Embedding (VNE), which provides methods to assign multiple Virtual
Networks (VN) to a single physical Substrate Network (SN), is an important task in network …

Network virtualization is believed to be a promising way for the next generation Internet to
overcome network ossification. It allows multiple heterogeneous virtual networks (VNs) to be …

Network virtualization holds a great promise for next-generation network, because it enables
sharing of physical infrastructure among different users/services, in a logical isolated way, to …

This paper proposes a backup computing and transmission capacity allocation model for
virtual networks that minimizes the required backup computing capacity under multiple …

Efficient path selection and content availability in the optical datacenter networks are
essential for business continuity. To measure quantitatively the connectivity of content and …
