Efficient VNF placement for service function chaining

open access: yes, 2021
By deploying the network functions (NFs) as software applications called Virtual Network Functions (VNF), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) helps the Service Provider (SP) to reduce the Capital Expenditure (CAPEX), Operation Expense (OPEX) and save a lot of deployment time. However, there are still many challenges that remain to be solved in NFV (e.

Service Overlay Forest Embedding for Software-Defined Cloud Networks

open access: yes, 2017
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) on Software-Defined Networks (SDN) can effectively optimize the allocation of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and the routing of network flows simultaneously.

Multifunctional Fibrous Mats: Stretchable, Conductive, and Hydrophilic Platforms for Wearable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 15, August 7, 2025.
A hydrophilic, stretchable, nonwoven electrospun fiber mat targeted to be applied in long‐term bioelectronic devices. By incorporating amphiphilic polyethylene glycol block copolymers in a polydimethylsiloxane matrix, the material develops stable hydrophilicity, enhanced breathability, as well as enhanced adhesion to cells.

A Reliability Study of Parallelized VNF Chaining

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we study end-to-end service reliability in Data Center Networks (DCN) with flow and Service Function Chains (SFCs) parallelism. In our approach, we consider large flows to i) be split into multiple parallel smaller sub-flows; ii) SFC along

SGLT2 inhibitor with and without ALDosterone AntagonIst for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: Design paper

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 3134-3144, August 2025.
Abstract Background Sodium glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) reduce heart failure (HF) events in patients with heart failure and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction (HFmr/pEF). The randomized comparison of SGLT2i/MRA combination versus SGLT2i or MRA alone requires further testing in ...

Apoptosis Inhibitor of Macrophages in Cats: A Potential Link Between an Exon 3 Variant Allele and Progression of Naturally Occurring Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The protein apoptosis inhibitor of macrophages (AIM) is involved in kidney repair. An AIM (fAIM) genetic variant in cats resulting in a domain duplication might abrogate fAIM's protective effect on kidney function. Objectives To confirm that the domain duplication previously described in fAIM results from an exon duplication at the ...

A Security‐Aware Network Function Sharing Model for 5G Slicing

open access: yesSECURITY AND PRIVACY, Volume 8, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Sharing Virtualized Network Function (VNFs) among different slices in Fifth Generation (5G) is a potential strategy to simplify the system implementation and utilize 5G resources efficiently. In this paper, we propose a security‐aware VNF sharing model for 5G networks.
