Resource Allocation in NFV: A Comprehensive Survey

Juliver Gil-Herrera, Juan Felipe Botero · 5 Aug 2016

Network functions virtualization (NFV) is a new network architecture framework where network function that traditionally used dedicated hardware (middleboxes or network appliances) are now implemented in software that runs on top of general purpose hardware such as high volume server. NFV emerges as an initiative from the industry (network operators, carriers, and manufacturers) in order…

Mobile Encrypted Traffic Classification Using Deep Learning: Experimental Evaluation, Lessons Learned, and Challenges

Giuseppe Aceto, Domenico Ciuonzo, Antonio Montieri et al. · 12 Feb 2019

The massive adoption of hand-held devices has led to the explosion of mobile traffic volumes traversing home and enterprise networks, as well as the Internet. Traffic classification (TC), i.e., the set of procedures for inferring (mobile) applications generating such traffic, has become nowadays the enabler for highly valuable profiling information (with certain privacy downsides), other…

Hierarchical Trust Management for Wireless Sensor Networks and its Applications to Trust-Based Routing and Intrusion Detection

Fenye Bao, Ing-Ray Chen, Moonjeong Chang et al. · 24 Mar 2012

We propose a highly scalable cluster-based hierarchical trust management protocol for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to effectively deal with selfish or malicious nodes. Unlike prior work, we consider multidimensional trust attributes derived from communication and social networks to evaluate the overall trust of a sensor node. By means of a novel probability model, we describe…

Orchestrating Virtualized Network Functions

Faizul Bari, Shihabur Rahman Chowdhury, Reaz Ahmed et al. · 13 May 2016

Middleboxes or network appliances like firewalls, proxies, and WAN optimizers have become an integral part of today's ISP and enterprise networks. Middlebox functionalities are usually deployed on expensive and proprietary hardware that require trained personnel for deployment and maintenance. Middleboxes contribute significantly to a network's capital and operation costs. In addition, organizations often require their…

Heuristic Approaches to the Controller Placement Problem in Large Scale SDN Networks

Stanislav Lange, Steffen Gebert, Thomas Zinner et al. · 10 Feb 2015

Software Defined Networking (SDN) marks a paradigm shift towards an externalized and logically centralized network control plane. A particularly important task in SDN architectures is that of controller placement, i.e., the positioning of a limited number of resources within a network to meet various requirements. These requirements range from latency constraints to failure tolerance and…

IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IEEE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management use?
