For software-defined networking (SDN) systems, to enhance the scalability and reliability of control plane, existing solutions adopt either multi-controller design with static swit…
Online VNF Chaining and Predictive Scheduling: Optimality and Trade-offs
Xi Huang, Simeng Bian, Xin Gao +4
For NFV systems, the key design space includes the function chaining for network requests and resource scheduling for servers. The problem is challenging since NFV systems usually…
Service Chain Composition with Failures in NFV Systems: A Game-Theoretic Perspective
Simeng Bian, Xi Huang, Ziyu Shao +2
For state-of-the-art network function virtualization (NFV) systems, it remains a key challenge to conduct effective service chain composition for different network services (NSs) w…
Online Task Scheduling for Fog Computing with Multi-Resource Fairness
Simeng Bian, Xi Huang, Ziyu Shao
In fog computing systems, one key challenge is online task scheduling, i.e., to decide the resource allocation for tasks that are continuously generated from end devices. The desig…
