Design of network management and regulation system over flexible reconfiguration by Yu-feng LI, Han QIU, Qin-rang LIU, Ju-long LAN

“…Network management and regulation system is a new arising appliance for the manageable,controllable and trustworthy demand of the Internet.The architecture design of the backbone link-level management and regulation system usually follows the core router,in which the separation of the data plane and the control plane could not meet the requirement of HW/SW data co-process,the rigid connection with closed building style could not satisfy the flexible identification of new applications.The loosely coupled switching HW/SW co-process architecture and the iterative looping HW/SW migration architecture were proposed,which could satisfy the above HW/SW co-process demand and the new application flexible identification demand.…”

Intelligent prediction method of virtual network function resource capacity for polymorphic network service slicing by Julong LAN, Di ZHU, Dan LI

“…Objectives:With the emergence and development of new network structures such as polymorphic network,the demand for network resource capacity is becoming more and more diverse.It is very difficult to adjust the distribution of virtual network functions (VNFs) carried on network slices for on-demand,dynamic and efficient resource capacity matching.This paper uses a data-driven VNF resource capacity prediction method to explore the pre-deployment of VNFs carried on network slices. …”
