AI‐Based Virtual Network Function Embedding for Internet of Things Using Parallel Deep Reinforcement Learning

Electronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
The proposed algorithm is a load‐balanced and energy‐delay aware reinforcement learning approach accompanied by the parallel actor–critic learning strategy for embedding virtual network functions in Internet of Things (IoT) architectures. It handles the dynamic and real‐time nature of the IoT service requests.

Handling Efficient VNF Placement with Graph-Based Reinforcement Learning for SFC Fault Tolerance

Electronics
Network functions virtualization (NFV) has become the platform for decomposing the sequence of virtual network functions (VNFs), which can be grouped as a forwarding graph of service function chaining (SFC) to serve multi-service slice requirements.

Adaptive Resource Management Framework for Profit Optimisation in 5G Network Slicing

IET Networks, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This paper proposes a novel optimisation framework for dynamic resource management in 5G network slicing, integrating integer linear programming (ILP) and heuristic models to prioritise high‐revenue slices while minimising reconfiguration costs. Simulations show a 24.8% increase in resource utilisation and a 98.99% boost in profitability compared to a ...

Adaptive power management for multiaccess edge computing‐based 6G‐inspired massive Internet of Things

IET Wireless Sensor Systems, Volume 15, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
The paper proposes a containerised edge computing model for power optimisation in 6G‐inspired massive Internet‐of‐Things applications. The problem is formulated as a central processing unit energy consumption cost function based on quasi‐finite system observations. Results show that the model performs better compared to a competitive baseline algorithm.
