The fields of networking and telecommunications are presently witnessing the transition of a number of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) principles and techniques from research into practice.
We present a new, highly-scalable analytical model of the electronic-and-optical routing and grooming process that accurately reproduces and explains recent results for numerical optimizations of t
We present an analytical model to estimate the expected minimum numbers of network elements required to support traffic demands in a multi-layer service transport network for the case where groomin
In the model presented here we use expectation values evaluated over the entire network as a multi-moment description of the required quantities of key network and network element (NE) resources an
In the model presented here, we evaluate expectation values over the entire network to obtain a multimoment description of the required quantities of key network and network element (NE) resources
Enterprises are increasingly using Ethernet as the foundation for transforming their networks to Internet Protocol.
The increasing use of network data within every aspect of human life, ranging from genetic databases to credit card payments, urges for efficient methods for detecting any attempts (intrusions) to
When a communication network's capacity increases, it is natural to want the bandwidth allocated to increase to exploit this capacity.
This chapter looks more specifically at how the planning and optimization functions affect network management.
The development of 5G cellular networks is driven by several architectural and radio technology evolutions; and by require-ments of diverse uses cases from the vertical industries that will be supp
