Network Function Virtualization
IEEE Internet Computing, 2016Network function virtualization (NFV) is a series of upcoming technologies that allow the high-volume packet-processing functions forming the modern Internet's core to be virtualized, so that they can run on commodity cloud computing platforms. This special issue of IEEE Internet Computing highlights some of the opportunities, challenges, and solutions

Virtual Network Function Placement with Function Decomposition for Virtual Network Slice
2018 IEEE Conference on Standards for Communications and Networking (CSCN), 2018Virtual network functions (VNFs) are placed across the network to complete the required network performance of virtual network slice (vNS), and the placement of VNFs is flexible and problematic. Besides, a VNF can be decomposed into multiple sub-functions, and the same type of sub-function can be re-used by multiple VNFs.

Placement of virtual network functions for network services
International Journal of Network Management, 2023SummaryNetwork function virtualization (NFV) is a name of technology for replacing hardware‐based network functions with software programs. Virtual network function (VNF) is a software program that replaces the hardware‐based network functionality. The replacement of the hardware‐based network functions (middleboxes) with software programs promises the
