Virtual Machine Migration Planning in Software-Defined Networks

Addressing Virtual Machine Migration Problems in Cloud Based Vehicular Networks

With the development of IoT, Vehicular Ad-hoc Network will be shifted to Vehicular Ad-hoc Network managed cloud in near future. As the traditional cloud, VMM is a crucial problem in Cloud Based Vehicular Networks. Due to the distinct feature of high mobility, VMM Cloud Based Vehicular Networks need to be addressed to keep cloud services running on. When a vehicle moves on the road, it moves out...

Software Defined Networks

In previous chapters we have seen why SDN is necessary and what preceded the actual advent of SDN in the research and industrial communities. In this chapter we provide an overview of how SDN actually works, including discussion of the basic components of a Software Defined Networking system, their roles, and how they interact with one another. In the first part of this chapter we focus on the ...

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) Communications in Software-defined and Virtualized Cellular Networks

Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications have attracted great attention from both academia and industry. In this paper, with recent advances in wireless network virtualization and software-defined networking (SDN), we propose a novel framework for M2M communications in software-defined cellular networks with wireless network virtualization. In the proposed framework, according to different funct...

Virtualization in Software - Defined Networks

H osted cloud computing has signif icantly lowered the barrier for creating new networked services. Likewise, experimental facilities such as the Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI; www. geni.net) let researchers perform largescale experiments on a “slice” of shared infrastructure. By letting tenants share physical resources, virtualization is a key technology in these infrastruct...
