AI-Native Network Slicing for 6G Networks

Native Temporal Slicing Support for XML Databases

XML databases, providing structural querying support, are becoming more and more popular. As we know, XML data may change over time and providing an efficient support to queries which also involve temporal aspects is still an open issue. In this paper we present our native Temporal XML Query Processor, which exploits an ad-hoc temporal indexing scheme relying on relational approaches and a tech...

End-to-end Network Slicing for 5G Mobile Networks

The research and development (R&D) and the standardization of the 5th Generation (5G) mobile networking technologies are proceeding at a rapid pace all around the world. In this paper, we introduce the emerging concept of network slicing that is considered one of the most significant technology challenges for 5G mobile networking infrastructure, summarize our preliminary research efforts to ena...

Network Slicing Games: Enabling Customization in Multi-Tenant Mobile Networks

Network slicing to enable resource sharing among multiple tenants –network operators and/or services– is considered a key functionality for next generation mobile networks. This paper provides an analysis of a well-known model for resource sharing, the ‘share-constrained proportional allocation’ mechanism, to realize network slicing. This mechanism enables tenants to reap the performance benefi...

Program Slicing using Functional Networks

Program slicing is a technique for identifying a subprogram from an original program. The subprogram, called a slice, is an executable program which maintains the eeect of the original upon a chosen set of variables at some point within the Control Flow Graph (CFG) of the original. The variable set, CFG node pair is called the slicing criterion. Slices nd applications in debugging, testing, par...
