Getting the Most Out of Your VNFs: Flexible Assignment of Service Priorities in 5G

open access: yes, 2019
Through their computational and forwarding capabilities, 5G networks can support multiple vertical services. Such services may include several common virtual (network) functions (VNFs), which could be shared to increase resource efficiency. In this paper,

SDN/NFV VNF Service Chaining

open access: yesINFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN INDUSTRY, 2021
Service Function Chaining (SFC) is a capability that links multiple network functions to deploy end-to-end network services. By virtualizing these network functions also known as Virtual Network Functions (VNFs), the dependency on traditional hardware can be removed, hence making it easier to deploy dynamic service chains over the cloud environment ...

Dynamic accelerator provisioning for SSH tunnels in NFV environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this demonstration, we present dynamic allocation of accelerator resources to SSH tunnels in an NFV environment. In order to accelerate a VNF, its compute-intensive operations are offloaded to hardware cores running on an FPGA.
