Toward Elastic Distributed SDN/NFV Controller for 5G Mobile Cloud Management Systems

Network slicing management & prioritization in 5G mobile systems

5G mobile network is expected to serve flexible requirements hence dynamically allocate network resources according to the demands. Network slicing, where network resources are packaged and assigned in an isolated manner to set of users according to their specific requirements, is considered as a key paradigm to fulfil diversity of requirements. There will clearly be conflicting demands in allo...

Towards Elastic High Performance Distributed Storage Systems in the Cloud

With the growing popularity of Internet-based services and the trend of hosting them in the Cloud, more powerful back-end storage systems are needed to support these services. On one hand, the storage system itself should be capable of handling workloads with higher concurrency and intensity. Distributed storage solutions are proposed. They are expected to achieve some of the following properti...

Intrusion detection techniques for mobile cloud computing in heterogeneous 5G

Mobile cloud computing is applied in multiple industries to obtain cloud-based services by leveraging mobile technologies. With the development of the wireless networks, defending threats from wireless communications have been playing a remarkable role in the Web security domain. Intrusion detection system (IDS) is an efficient approach for protecting wireless communications in the Fifth Genera...

Introducing Mobile Edge Computing Capabilities through Distributed 5G Cloud Enabled Small Cells

Current trends in broadband mobile networks are addressed towards the placement of different capabilities at the edge of the mobile network in a centralised way. On one hand, the split of the eNB between baseband processing units and remote radio headers makes it possible to process some of the protocols in centralised premises, likely with virtualised resources. On the other hand, mobile edge ...
