OKpi: All-KPI Network Slicing Through Efficient Resource Allocation

Jorge {Martín-Pérez}, Francesco Malandrino, Carla Fabiana Chiasserini +1

Networks can now process data as well as transporting it; it follows that they can support multiple services, each requiring different key performance indicators (KPIs). Because of…

Edge-Based Collision Avoidance for Vehicles and Vulnerable Users: An Architecture Based on MEC

Marco Malinverno, Giuseppe Avino, Claudio Casetti +3

Collision avoidance is one of the most promising applications for vehicular networks, dramatically improving the safety of the vehicles that support it. In this paper, we investiga…

Reducing Service Deployment Cost Through VNF Sharing

Francesco Malandrino, Carla Fabiana Chiasserini, Gil Einziger +1

Thanks to its computational and forwarding capabilities, the mobile network infrastructure can support several third-party ("vertical") services, each composed of a graph of virtua…

Service Shifting: a Paradigm for Service Resilience in 5G

Francesco Malandrino, Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini, Giada Landi

Many real-world services can be provided through multiple virtual network function (VNF) graphs, corresponding, e.g., to high- and low-complexity variants of the service itself. Ba…

Multiservice UAVs for Emergency Tasks in Post-disaster Scenarios

Francesco Malandrino, Cristina Rottondi, Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini +2

UAVs are increasingly being employed to carry out surveillance, parcel delivery, communication-support and other specific tasks. Their equipment and mission plan are carefully sele…

Getting the Most Out of Your VNFs: Flexible Assignment of Service Priorities in 5G

Francesco Malandrino, Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini

Through their computational and forwarding capabilities, 5G networks can support multiple vertical services. Such services may include several common virtual (network) functions (V…

Towards Failure Resiliency in 5G: Service Shifting

Francesco Malandrino, Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini, Giada Landi

Many real-world services can be provided through multiple VNF graphs, corresponding, e.g., to high- and low-quality variants of the service itself. Based on this observation, we ex…

5G Traffic Forecasting: If Verticals and Mobile Operators Cooperate

Francesco Malandrino, Carla Fabiana Chiasserini

In 5G research, it is traditionally assumed that vertical industries (a.k.a verticals) set the performance requirements for the services they want to offer to mobile users, and the…
