Optimising resource allocation for virtual network functions in SDN/NFV‐enabled MEC networks [PDF]
IET Communications, 2021 Abstract Network function virtualisation (NFV), software defined networks (SDNs), and mobile edge computing (MEC) are emerging as core technologies to satisfy increasing number of users' demands in 5G and beyond wireless networks. SDN provides clean separation of the control plane from the data plane while NFV enables the flexible and
