A 5G Convergent Virtualised Radio Access Network Living at the Edge
“5G-CORAL: A 5G Convergent VirtualisedRadio Access Network Living at the Edge” targetsthe design of an innovative integrated edge andfog solution, where virtualised functions, services,and applications are put together to bring aboutenhanced low latency connectivity across multipleradio access technologies. The proposed solutionenvisions a unified virtualised environment byfederating and integrating heterogeneouscomputing resources.

5G-CORAL solution envisions 2 Systems:
1. Edge and Fog computing System (EFS)formed by integrated the edge and fognetworking and computing substrate offered asa shared hosting environment;
2. Orchestration and Control System (OCS)responsible of managing and controlling theEFS, including its interworking with other non-EFS domains.
