Virtual Infrastructure Planning
– Technology-specific virtualization on each phy domain
– VI planning taking a holistic approach It considers jointly the heterogeneous network technology domains and the IT
resources comprising the PHY infrastructure, to offer a globally optimal solution
Through this joint consideration, it is ensured that sufficient resources are allocated accross all infrastructure segments
– To support the volume of service requests
– To support their specific characteristics (required QoS, or mobility for end-users)
Task 4.1: the results (2) CONTENT cross-domain virtualization
• Initial numerical results available in D4.1• Extensions made from architectural perspective
later in D2.3• Further simulations planned in T2.3 for the next
year
