NFV management and orchestration (MANO) systems are being developed to meet the agile and flexible management requirements of virtualized network services in the 5G era and beyond. In this regard, ETSI ISG NFV has specified a standard NFV MANO system that is being used as a reference by MANO system vendors as well as open-source MANO projects. However, in the absence of MANO specific KPIs, it is difficult for users to make an informed decision on the choice of the MANO system better suited to meet their needs. Given the absence of any formal MANO specific KPIs on the basis of which a performance of a MANO system can be quantified, benchmarked and compared, users are left with simply comparing the claimed feature set. It is thus the motivation of this paper to highlight the challenges of testing and validating MANO systems in general, and propose MANO specific KPIs. Based on the proposed KPIs, we analyze and compare the performance of the two most popular open-source MANO projects, namely ONAP and OSM, using a complex open-source vCPE VNF and identify the features/performance gaps. In addition, we also provide a sketch of a test-jig that has been designed for benchmarking MANO systems.

Recent advancements in ultra-low-power machine learning (TinyML) hardware promises to unlock an entirely new class of smart applications. However, continued progress is limited by the lack of a widely accepted benchmark for these systems. Benchmarkin g allows us to measure and thereby systematically compare, evaluate, and improve the performance of systems and is therefore fundamental to a field reaching maturity. In this position paper, we present the current landscape of TinyML and discuss the challenges and direction towards developing a fair and useful hardware benchmark for TinyML workloads. Furthermore, we present our four benchmarks and discuss our selection methodology. Our viewpoints reflect the collective thoughts of the TinyMLPerf working group that is comprised of over 30 organizations.
In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review and updated solutions related to 5G network slicing using SDN and NFV. Firstly, we present 5G service quality and business requirements followed by a description of 5G network softwarization and slicin g paradigms including essential concepts, history and different use cases. Secondly, we provide a tutorial of 5G network slicing technology enablers including SDN, NFV, MEC, cloud/Fog computing, network hypervisors, virtual machines & containers. Thidly, we comprehensively survey different industrial initiatives and projects that are pushing forward the adoption of SDN and NFV in accelerating 5G network slicing. A comparison of various 5G architectural approaches in terms of practical implementations, technology adoptions and deployment strategies is presented. Moreover, we provide a discussion on various open source orchestrators and proof of concepts representing industrial contribution. The work also investigates the standardization efforts in 5G networks regarding network slicing and softwarization. Additionally, the article presents the management and orchestration of network slices in a single domain followed by a comprehensive survey of management and orchestration approaches in 5G network slicing across multiple domains while supporting multiple tenants. Furthermore, we highlight the future challenges and research directions regarding network softwarization and slicing using SDN and NFV in 5G networks.
This note is based on the plenary talk given by the second author at MACIS 2015, the Sixth International Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Computer and Information Sciences. Motivated by some of the work done within the Priority Programme SPP 148 9 of the German Research Council DFG, we discuss a number of current challenges in the development of Open Source computer algebra systems. The main focus is on algebraic geometry and the system Singular.
This paper proposes a novel QoE-aware SDN enabled NFV architecture for controlling and managing Future Multimedia Applications on 5G systems. The aim is to improve the QoE of the delivered multimedia services through the fulfilment of personalized Qo E application requirements. This novel approach provides some new features, functionalities, concepts and opportunities for overcoming the key QoE provisioning limitations in current 4G systems such as increased network management complexity and inability to adapt dynamically to changing application, network transmission or traffic or end-users demand.
With the constant demand for connectivity at an all-time high, Network Service Providers (NSPs) are required to optimize their networks to cope with rising capital and operational expenditures required to meet the growing connectivity demand. A solut ion to this challenge was presented through Network Function Virtualization (NFV). As network complexity increases and futuristic networks take shape, NSPs are required to incorporate an increasing amount of operational efficiency into their NFV-enabled networks. One such technique is Machine Learning (ML), which has been applied to various entities in NFV-enabled networks, most notably in the NFV Orchestrator. While traditional ML provides tremendous operational efficiencies, including real-time and high-volume data processing, challenges such as privacy, security, scalability, transferability, and concept drift hinder its widespread implementation. Through the adoption of Advanced Intelligence techniques such as Reinforcement Learning and Federated Learning, NSPs can leverage the benefits of traditional ML while simultaneously addressing the major challenges traditionally associated with it. This work presents the benefits of adopting these advanced techniques, provides a list of potential use cases and research topics, and proposes a bottom-up micro-functionality approach to applying these methods of Advanced Intelligence to NFV Management and Orchestration.
