VNF-AAPC: Accelerator-aware VNF placement and chaining [PDF]
Abstract In recent years, telecom operators have been migrating towards network architectures based on Network Function Virtualization in order to reduce their high Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) and Operational Expenditure (OPEX). However, virtualization of some network functions is accompanied by a significant degradation of Virtual Network Function ...

Multi-Domain VNF Mapping Algorithms [PDF]
5G technologies are taking benefit of the Network Function Virtualization to achieve more flexible deployments. This new paradigm allows the resource sharing between operators in federated environments thanks to the decomposition of services into virtual network functions connected together composing a "service function chain".
