text: "As 5G and network function virtualization (NFV) are maturing, it becomes
crucial to demonstrate their feasibility and benefits by means of vertical scenarios.
While 5GPPP has identified smart manufacturing as one of the most important vertical
industries, there is still a lack of specific, practical use cases. \r\n\r\nUsing
the experience from a large-scale manufacturing company, Weidm{\\\"u}ller Group,
we present a detailed use case that reflects the needs of real-world manufacturers.
We also propose an architecture with specific network services and virtual network
functions (VNFs) that realize the use case in practice. As a proof of concept,
we implement the required services and deploy them on an emulation-based prototyping
platform. Our experimental results indicate that a fully virtualized smart manufacturing
use case is not only feasible but also reduces machine interconnection and configuration
time and thus improves productivity by orders of magnitude."

text: "The ongoing softwarization of networks creates a big need for automated testing
solutions to ensure service quality. This becomes even more important if agile
environments with short time to market and high demands, in terms of service performance
and availability, are considered.\r\nIn this paper, we introduce a novel testing
solution for virtualized, microservice-based network functions and services, which
we base on TTCN-3, a well known testing language defined by the European standards
institute (ETSI). We use TTCN-3 not only for functional testing but also answer
the question whether TTCN-3 can be used for performance profiling tasks as well.
Finally, we demonstrate the proposed concepts and solutions in a case study using
our open-source prototype to test and profile a chained network service."

text: "5G together with software defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualisation
(NFV) will enable a wide variety of vertical use cases. One of them is the smart
man- ufacturing case which utilises 5G networks to interconnect production machines,
machine parks, and factory sites to enable new possibilities in terms of flexibility,
automation, and novel applications (industry 4.0). However, the availability of
realistic and practical proof-of-concepts for those smart manufacturing scenarios
is still limited.\r\nThis demo fills this gap by not only showing a real-world
smart manufacturing application entirely implemented using NFV concepts, but also
a lightweight prototyping framework that simplifies the realisation of vertical
NFV proof-of-concepts. Dur- ing the demo, we show how an NFV-based smart manufacturing
scenario can be specified, on-boarded, and instantiated before we demonstrate
how the presented NFV services simplify machine data collection, aggregation,
and analysis."

text: "Softwarized networks are the key enabler for elastic, on-demand service deployments
of virtualized network functions. They allow to dynamically steer traffic\r\nthrough
the network when new network functions are instantiated, or old ones\r\nare terminated.
These scenarios become in particular challenging when stateful functions are involved,
necessitating state management solutions to migrate\r\nstate between the functions.
The problem with existing solutions is that they typically embrace state migration
and flow rerouting jointly, imposing a huge set\r\nof requirements on the on-boarded
virtualized network functions (VNFs), eg,\r\nsolution-specific state management
interfaces.\r\nTo change this, we introduce the seamless handover protocol (SHarP).
An\r\neasy-to-use, loss-less, and order-preserving flow rerouting mechanism that
is\r\nnot fixed to a single state management approach. Using SHarP, VNF vendors\r\nare
empowered to implement or use the state management solution of their\r\nchoice.
SHarP supports these solutions with additional information when flows\r\nare migrated.
In this paper, we present SHarP's design, its open source prototype\r\nimplementation,
and show how SHarP significantly reduces the buffer usage at\r\na central (SDN)
controller, which is a typical bottleneck in state-of-the-art solutions. Our experiments
show that SHarP uses a constant amount of controller\r\nbuffer, irrespective of
the time taken to migrate the VNF state."

text: By distributing the computational load over the nodes of a Wireless Acoustic
Sensor Network (WASN), the real-time capability of the TRINICON (TRIple-N-Independent
component analysis for CONvolutive mixtures) framework for Blind Source Separation
(BSS) can be ensured, even if the individual network nodes are not powerful enough
to run TRINICON in real-time by themselves. To optimally utilize the limited computing
power and data rate in WASNs, the MARVELO (Multicast-Aware Routing for Virtual
network Embedding with Loops in Overlays) framework is expanded for use with TRINICON,
while a feature-based selection scheme is proposed to exploit the most beneficial
parts of the input signal for adapting the demixing system. The simulation results
of realistic scenarios show only a minor degradation of the separation performance
even in heavily resource-limited situations.

text: Internet of Things (IoT) applications witness an exceptional evolution of
traffic demands, while existing protocols, as seen in wireless sensor networks
(WSNs), struggle to cope with these demands. Traditional protocols rely on finding
a routing path between sensors generating data and sinks acting as gateway or
databases. Meanwhile, the network will suffer from high collisions in case of
high data rates. In this context, in-network processing solutions are used to
leverage the wireless nodes' computations, by distributing processing tasks on
the nodes along the routing path. Although in-network processing solutions are
very popular in wired networks (e.g., data centers and wide area networks), there
are many challenges to adopt these solutions in wireless networks, due to the
interference problem. In this paper, we solve the problem of routing and task
distribution jointly using a greedy Virtual Network Embedding (VNE) algorithm,
and consider power control as well. Through simulations, we compare the proposed
algorithm to optimal solutions and show that it achieves good results in terms
of delay. Moreover, we discuss its sub-optimality by driving tight lower bounds
and loose upper bounds. We also compare our solution with another wireless VNE
solution to show the trade-off between delay and symbol error rate.
