  • An Extensible and Customizable Framework for the Management and Orchestration of Emerging Software-Based Networks
    TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITÄT BERLIN An Extensible and Customizable Framework for the Management and Orchestration of Emerging Software-based Networks vogelegt von Master of Science Giuseppe Antonio Carella geb. in Brindisi, Italien von der Fakultät IV - Elektrotechnik und Informatik der Technischen Universität Berlin zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Ingenieurwissenschaften - Dr.-Ing. - Promotionsausschuss: Vorsitzender : Prof. Dr. Rafael Schaefer Gutachter : Prof. Dr. Thomas Magedanz Gutachter : Prof. Dr. Paolo Bellavista Gutachter : Prof. Dr. Odej Kao Tag der wissenschaftlichen Aussprache: 02.02.2018 Berlin, 2018 Abstract The 5th Generation Mobile Telecommunications (5G) is supposed to drastically change network operators’ infrastructures. The evolution of telecommunication networks has always been influenced by the parallel evolution within the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) domain. What started with intelligent networks in the 90’s, namely the centraliza- tion of service programs and data in central computers controlling remote switching layers in order to simplify the service creation, deployment and management, led, at the beginning of the millennium, to Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) based distributed Session Description Protocol (SDP) on top of converging networks. Due to the current approach of “everything is fully connected”, a more efficient way to manage network operators’ resources and infrastructures is required in or- der to provide always much greater throughput and much lower latency with high availability and higher connectivity density. The transition towards “everything as a software” is the enabler for this transformation where software-based virtualized network functions can be customized for the particular needs of a particular vertical domain. Therefore, almost ten years later, cloud principles and technologies have again changed the way services are developed and provisioned.
