This paper addresses the novel notion of offering a radio access network as a service. Its components may be instantiated on general purpose platforms with pooled resources (both radio and hardware ones) dimensioned on-demand, elastically and following the pay-per-use principle. A novel architecture is proposed that supports this concept. The architecture's success is in its modularity, well-defined...
Virtualisation of cellular networks can be seen as a way to significantly reduce the complexity of processes, required nowadays to provide reliable cellular networks. The Future Communication Architecture for Mobile Cloud Services: Mobile Cloud Networking (MCN) is a EU FP7 Large-scale Integrating Project (IP) funded by the European Commission that is focusing on how cloud computing and network function...
There is an increasing user demand for multimedia services, which have strong requirements in terms of network resources. Both requirements and network resources may vary during the service lifetime. Therefore an adaptation process is required to permanently make sure service requirements match network capabilities. To this end, we propose an architecture made of two decision entities, namely the...
