Hi Qin and the authors,

I think this is a valuable work as a comprehensive thinking on the model driven work in IETF.
I am very interested on the architecture, the classification, the mapping methodology, etc.

Some points may be useful:
1. When I am looking at the " Figure 1: An overview of IETF YANG Modules", I think it's better not to list the specific models in "Network Service Models". Or you can use for example. Otherwise people may think those are the only considered service models in IETF.

2. While I think it's really good to investigate "all" the current models in IETF, you may not need to list them in the main content. You can keep the classification, the introduction to each category, the inter-connectivity description. But I suggest to move the "document:introduction" to the appendix. As you mentioned, the document identifies a comprehensive list of modules to exemplify the proposed approach, but the document does not claim to be exhaustive. The list may keep exploding and make the document not stable.

More comments will come later.

Cheers,
Tianran

> Abstract:
>    Model-driven service and network management provides a programmatic
>    and standard-based approach for representing (virtual) services or
>    networks and configuration to the network device that are used to
>    build and deliver the service.  Models can be used at various phases
>    of service and network management life cycle such as service
>    instantiation, service provisionning, optimization, monitoring, and
>    diagnostic.  Also, models can be designed to automate network
>    management and provide closed-loop control for the sake of adaptive
>    and deterministic service creation, delivery, and maintenance.
> 
>    This document provides a framework that describes and discusses an
>    architecture for service and network management automation with YANG
>    modeling technologies.  An applicability of YANG data models to
>    automation of virtualized network service is also investigated.
> 
>    The document aims to exemplify an approach to illustrate the journey
>    from technology-agnostic services to technology-specific actions.
