Tackling User-Centric Media Demands through Adaptable Software Defined Infrastructures

This paper proposes a conceptual approach to content delivery that addresses emerging media demand trends through cross-layer integration between Virtualised Service Networks (VSNs) and Information Centric Networking (ICN). The transformative effects of software-defined infrastructures are presented and how these technologies can support dynamics needed to deliver personalised, interactive, mob...

User - Centric Networking and Services

New paradigms in both the wholesale and retail service markets are being formed and accelerated by technological advances (e.g., in networking, virtualization), the booming of content delivery, and regulatory changes on access and competition rules. These paradigms can enrich the roles of service providers, differentiate traditional pricing schemes, and enable new business models. For example, ...
