Order dependency-aware service function placement in service function chaining
2017 International Conference on Information and Communication Technology Convergence (ICTC), 2017In distributed network function virtualization (NFV) environments, the latency can be significantly increased as the length of service function chain (SFC) increases. To reduce the latency, the order dependency allowing parallel processing of service functions (SFs) can be exploited.

Network function consolidation in service function chaining orchestration
2016 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC), 2016Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is an emerging technology proposed to improve service provisioning in telecommunication industry. The flexibility of NFV enables network operator to dynamically deploy Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) according to real-time requirements.

Service Function Chain Deployment with Guaranteed Resilience
2020 IEEE 17th International Conference on Mobile Ad Hoc and Sensor Systems (MASS), 2020Network Function Virtualization (NFV) transforms the implementation of network functions from expensive hardwares to software middleboxes. These software middleboxes, also called Virtual Network Functions (VNFs), are executed on virtualization platforms, which makes them more prone to error compared to dedicated hardwares. One effective way of ensuring

Energy-Aware Service Function Placement for Service Function Chaining in Data Centers
2016 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM), 2016Nowadays, data centers deploy a large number of servers and network devices to provide various service functions (e.g. firewalls, deep packet inspection, content caches, WAN optimizers, etc.) and sufficient network connection. Most traffic in data centers is subject to treatment by multiple service functions (SFs) which form an ordered service function

Joint Optimization of Service Function Placement and Flow Distribution for Service Function Chaining
IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 2017In this paper, we consider the problem of optimal dynamic service function (SF) placement and flow routing in a SF chaining (SFC) enabled network. We formulate a multi-objective optimization problem to maximize the acceptable flow rate and to minimize the energy cost for multiple service chains.

Optimal Flow Distribution in Service Function Chaining
The 10th International Conference on Future Internet, 2015Service function chaining (SFC) enables the creation of composite network services that consist of an ordered set of service functions. For scalable and fault-tolerant SFC services, multiple service function instances should be deployed across networks and incoming flows should be distributed to multiple service function instances appropriately.

Availability-aware mapping of service function chains
IEEE INFOCOM 2017 - IEEE Conference on Computer Communications, 2017Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is a promising technique to greatly improve the effectiveness and flexibility of network services through a process named Service Function Chain (SFC) mapping, with which different network services are deployed over virtualized and shared platforms in data centers.

Service function chaining policy compliance checking
NOMS 2018 - 2018 IEEE/IFIP Network Operations and Management Symposium, 2018The end-to-end network services often requires various Network Functions (NFs) that provides the L4-L7 functionality. Service Function Chaining (SFC), which consists of an ordered set of NFs, and Software Defined Network (SDN), which has global view of the network and programmability, easily enable the creation of network services.
