Workshop on "Management of Network Virtualisation"
Organised by the AGAVE
and EMANICS IST projects
with the support of the European Commission
6 November 2007
European Commission
Avenue de Beaulieu 25, room 0/S1
B - 1160 Brussels, Belgium
Workshop scope:
|
The workshop is focussed on discussing the
latest developments in network virtualisation: an increasingly
important topic for today's networks as well as the future
Internet.
Network virtualisation serves several goals.
On the one hand service differentiation may be achieved through
the provisioning and management of virtual network resources.
Virtual networks may support certain service features/requirements
in terms of packet transfer characteristics, robustness and
resilience to failures and congestion. On the other hand the
network provider may use virtual networks to facilitate network
management, e.g. through load balancing of traffic, or partitioning
of network resources. Virtual networks may span a single provider
domain but may also extend across multiple providers to provide
end-to-end virtual Internets.
The workshop will address architectures,
business models and network management solutions for network
virtualisation as well as specific mechanisms to implement
and operate virtual networks. |
