Design and Implementation of Network-Aware VNF Migration Mechanism
IEEE Access, 2020 By separating network functionalities from the dedicated hardware and implementing them in the form of Virtual Network Function (VNF), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) provides a new service paradigm called Service Function Chain (SFC).

VNF Placement Optimization at the Edge and Cloud † [PDF]
Future Internet, 2019 Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has revolutionized the way network services are offered to end users. Individual network functions are decoupled from expensive and dedicated middleboxes and are now provided as software-based virtualized entities called Virtualized Network Functions (VNFs).
