  - "Elastic deployments of virtualized network functions~(VNF) can automatically
    scale the amount of used resources in relation to their workload. This is often
    done by starting new VNF instances or stopping old ones. A problem of these scale
    operations is that most network functions are stateful and their internal state
    is not automatically migrated when traffic is redistributed in the deployment.
    As a result, mechanisms are needed to exchange or migrate internal network function
    state between VNF instances.\r\n\r\nThis paper presents a state management framework
    that creates a logically distributed state store on top of elastically deployed
    virtual network functions. We also introduce a novel programming model that provides
    both a local and a global view of the state to each VNF instance. We discuss the
    integration of our framework into existing network function virtualization architectures
    and compare the performance of our prototype to a centralized and a distributed
    state store solution.@eng"
