A Unified Network, Computational and Storage Resource Management Framework Targeting End-to-end Performance Optimization for Secure 5G Multi-Technology and Multi-Tenancy Environments
Main goal
Efficiently combine compute and storage resource functionality over a unified ultra-high capacity converged digital/analog Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) Radio Access Network (RAN) for 5G.
Nextworks role
Design and develop an SDN controller for the mixed data plane (mmWave, FiWi), work on NFV/MEC orchestration and network slicing and on a monitoring framework from multi-technology network domains and the hybrid cloud/edge.
Other key partners
Mellanox (IL), ADVA (DE), OTE (GR), Orange (FR), Accelleran (BE), ICCS (GR), Univ, Bristol (UK)
Innovation Radar
Vertical Slicer for network slice management in edge/cloud domains with integrated control of O-RAN based access network and multi-technology transport networks with optical, mmWave and TSN resources.
