Most studies on network function virtualization are based on cloud computing environments.
Fog computing has been proposed as a supplement to cloud computing. When deploying …

Abstract Network Function Virtualization (NFV) provides a good paradigm for sharing the
resources of the physical network. The deployment problem of Service Function Chains …

Internet of Things (IoT) has been ever-growing over the last few years. The IoT devices
generate a massive amount of data that should be transmitted to the cloud for computing …

Network function virtualization (NFV) has gained prominence in next-generation cloud
computing, such as the fog-based radio access network, due to their ability to support better …

Network function virtualization (NFV) requires service function chain (SFC) provisioning on
cloud or fog servers. Now fog nodes offers short provisioning times as compared to the …

Fog computing allows services to be deployed on computing resources at the edge of the
network to address the limitations of centralized cloud systems. However, the adoption of fog …

Fog computing places computation/storage resources at the network edge to overcome
delay limitations associated with cloud computing. Namely, fog-based services can provide …

Network function virtualization (NFV) technology enables service providers to implement
software-based network processing functionalities on standard computing servers (nodes) …

Network function virtualization (NFV) uses commodity servers to run “softwarized”
networking device functions and replace costly, proprietary hardware systems. This …

Fog computing extends the cloud to the edge of the network, close to the end-users enabling
the deployment of some application component in the fog while others in the cloud. Network …
