Apologies for the (... expectable...) duplication of announcement. But read on, at least once! ====================================================== Wiley Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies Special Issue on *Network Slicing: trends, research and standardization* ====================================================== https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/21613915 The number of Internet accesses is growing exponentially, with an ever increasing number of mobile devices for multiple Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet-of-Things applications. Network technologies are required to independently support billions of devices for wired and wireless access and to incorporate new isolated services for Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet-of-Things. Network slicing - a specific form of virtualization that allows multiple logical networks to run and be managed on top of a shared physical network infrastructure - is a new approach for improving overall performance and security where infrastructures, software and spectrum are combined into a single software-based virtual network entity, which then can be offered to different parties with an effective cost-benefit ratio. Network slicing combines different wired and wireless networks with different access technologies and network topologies (infrastructure-based and infrastructure-less) which makes the essential requirements on convergence, sharing, isolation, security and abstraction difficult to achieve. Furthermore, considering the wireless links, wireless networks operate in different spectrum bands ranging from MHz to GHz, unlicensed and licensed RF bands, and with different geographic coverage (e.g., wide, local and personal areas). Thus far, there is no unified and universal architecture for wireless network virtualization available for commercial networks. These advances in Computing and Communication Technologies - and their applications to different emerging systems, network slicing and virtualization - have generated interest from industry, government and academia, all trying to explore the same common infrastructure. This special issue will bring researchers and practitioners together to present the latest developments and technical solutions concerning various aspects of advances in network slicing and novel related virtualization technologies. This SI seeks original unpublished technical papers focusing on theoretical analysis, emerging applications, novel system architecture design and evaluation, experimental studies, and standardization. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: • Network slicing architectures and protocols • Network slice control, management and orchestration • Network slicing and SDN architectures, operations and protocols • Dynamic wired and wireless network virtualization and softwarization • Slicing-friendly infrastructure and data plane programmability • Mobility management and topology control in network slicing • Network slicing stitching, inter-slicing • Analytics for intelligent orchestration of softwarized infrastructures • Distributed co-ordination of slice provisioning and multi-domain orchestration • Network slicing support for ICN, MEC and other architectures • Scalability, performance and complexity analysis and evaluation • Performance modelling, analysis and optimization of slice-enabled networks • Self-healing/configuration/optimization of network slicing • Self-organizing networks and autonomic communications applied to network slicing • Network slicing economics and game theory • Interference mitigation and awareness for slice isolation • Slice-related spectrum-management regulation and policy making • Security, trust and privacy issues • Applying distributed ledger technologies to support slicing • Applications, case studies, and real-world test beds of network slicing • Experimental deployments • Standardization activities Submission =========== Authors are advised to submit their research paper following the ETT Paper template.
