Abstract: The rapid advancement of Software-Defined Networks (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has popularized the adoption of the Service Function Chain (SFC) paradigm for efficient ...

Abstract: The efficacy of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) depends critically on (1) where the virtual network functions (VNFs) are placed and (2) how the traffic is routed. Unfortunately, these ...

Abstract: Goal functions make virtual goal-oriented motor tasks easier to analyze and manipulate by explicitly linking movement to outcome. However, they have only been used to study constrained (e.g.

Abstract: As power systems shift from centralized synchronous machines to distributed, converter-based resources such as solar, wind, and EVs, Virtual Synchronous Machines (VSMs) offer a scalable and ...

Abstract: Edge Networks (ENs) are emerging networks that enable deploying multiple virtual network functions (VNFs) on resource-limited edge servers to provide users with tailored virtual network ...

Abstract: In the upcoming Sixth-Generation (6G) of mobile communication systems, space network entities will cooperate with conventional terrestrial networks to provide three-dimensional wireless ...

Abstract: The evolution from Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) to Cloud-native Network Functions (CNFs) represents a pivotal shift in modern network infrastructure. Initially, VNFs, deployed on virtual ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the optimal train motion control during the Virtual Coupling (VC) convoy formation where the following train (simply called the follower) needs to timely catch up ...

Abstract: With the rapid advancement of edge computing and network function virtualization, it is promising to provide flexible and low-latency network services at the edge. However, due to the ...

Abstract: Space information network (SIN) can provide global coverage in 6G network. Furthermore, SIN with network function virtualization (NFV) can achieve flexible deployment of network functions ...
