On Efficient Service Function Chaining in Hybrid Software Defined Networks
IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management, 2022To minimize operating expenses (OPEX) and enhance flexibility for network service provisioning, network function virtualization (NFV) is used to chain an ordered sequence of virtualized network functions (VNFs), also known as service function chain (SFC),

Distributed service function failover mechanism in service function chaining
2017 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN), 2017In service function chaining (SFC), end-to-end traffic flows are classified and processed by an ordered set of service functions (SFs). When SF in the chain fails, the corresponding traffic flows cannot be processed further to reach the destination until the failed SF recovers.

Optimal placement of service function in service function chaining
2016 Eighth International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN), 2016In service function chaining (SFC), an ordered list of service functions (SFs) is specified for network services, and those SFs should be placed in appropriate service nodes (SNs) to satisfy the given service latency requirement. In this paper, we formulate an integer non-linear programming (INLP) problem for the optimal placement of SFs when the ...
