Network slicing is considered a key technology in enabling the underlying 5G mobile network infrastructure to meet diverse service requirements. In this article, we demonstrate how transport accommodates various requirements of Massive IoT (MIoT), Critical (CIoT), and Mobile Broadband (MBB) applications. Given that most research conducted previously measure done through simulations, utilized Si...

Radio access network (RAN) slicing is an effective methodology to dynamically allocate networking resources in 5G networks. One of the main challenges of RAN slicing is that it is provably an NP-Hard problem. For this reason, we design near-optimal low-complexity distributed RAN slicing algorithms. First, we model the slicing problem as a congestion game, and demonstrate that such game admits a...

Network slicing is one of the fundamental tenets Fifth Generation (5G)/Sixth (6G) networks. Deploying slices requires end-to-end (E2E) control services and underlying resources in a network substrate featuring an increasing number stakeholders. Beyond technical difficulties this entails, there long list administrative negotiations among parties that do not necessarily trust each other, which of...

5G mobile networks encompass the capabilities of hosting a variety of services such as mobile social networks, multimedia delivery, healthcare, transportation, and public safety. Therefore, the major challenge in designing the 5G networks is how to support different types of users and applications with different quality-of-service requirements under a single physical network infrastructure. Rec...

5G mobile network is expected to serve flexible requirements hence dynamically allocate network resources according to the demands. Network slicing, where network resources are packaged and assigned in an isolated manner to set of users according to their specific requirements, is considered as a key paradigm to fulfil diversity of requirements. There will clearly be conflicting demands in allo...
