Cost as Performance: VNF Placement at the Edge

IEEE Networking Letters, 2021
This letter studies the virtualized network function (VNF) placement problem for edge systems, where the edge nodes can provide services that are originally deployed in cloud datacenters. As related to the end-users, edge supports low latency when the energy consumption of edge nodes and end users are the main concerns.
