Re-architecting mobile network functions and central office is one of the hottest topics of
software defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV). It is known as …

To adapt the rapid upgradation of the communication technology (eg, from 5G to 6G) and
reduce the redeployment cost, the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is regarded as a …

The interdependency between different network layers is commonly observed in cyber
physical systems and communication networks adopting the dissociation of logic and …

Full duplex ultra-dense network (FDUDN) has been envisioned as a promising network
paradigm for spectrum efficiency enhancement. This paper presents a novel power …

We present a self-configured and unified access and metro network architecture, named
ARMONIA. The ARMONIA network monitors its status, and dynamically (re-) optimizes its …

Pairwise dependencies in interdependent networks exist not only between ordinary nodes
but also between groups of nodes, where nodes cooperate and form groups to increase …

As of today, telecommunication providers are exploiting the possibilities offered by the cloud
paradigm to efficiently decouple physical network resources, like hardware equipment …

IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) represents a crucial element for the convergence of
telecommunication systems heading towards 5G solutions. Actually, IMS offers a …

With the capability of decoupling the control plane and the data plane of networks, Software-
Defined Network (SDN) enables flexible and efficient implementations in networks. In …

In recent years, there have been a number of large-scale deployments of P2P real-time
streaming platforms in cloud storage systems due to their fast and convenient storage …
