[0078] Attached below figure 2 To illustrate the process of service function chain placement. In scenario one, we use the attached figure 2 Represents the topology AttMpls, which has 25 nodes and 57 links. In the service function chain required by a network service, the number of VNFs is set to 5, assuming that the φth VNF is denoted as s φ (1≤φ≤5). Assume that each VNF in the service function chain has 6 deployable nodes, and the position of deployable nodes is γ φω (1≤φ≤5, 1≤ω≤6). in:

[0101] The present invention randomly generates service functions and node locations where each VNF can be deployed. Calculate the link delay L according to the coordinates and links of the nodes in the topology delay (δ x,y ), randomly generated VNF on the deployable node α φ The node processing delay N required for the above processing delay (α φ ). These three parameters are used as input parameters of the algorithm in both GA and PBIL.

Abstract

The invention discloses a virtualized network function placement method based on a population-based incremental learning algorithm. The population-based incremental learning algorithm is applied to apreset network topology, minimization of service delay is taken as an optimization target, and a virtualized network function placement scheme satisfying a practical deployment demand is calculated. The method is mainly characterized by that a two-stage coding mode is employed, reparation operation is carried out on illegal individuals, a Floyd algorithm is employed when individual fitness is calculated, a probability vector is guided to be updated through storage of a global elite set, the probability vector is changed through mutation operation, and the like. According to the method, the PBIL (Population-Based Incremental Learning) algorithm is applied to solution of the VNF-P (Virtualized Network Functions Placement) algorithm; simulation experiment and data analysis show that comparedwith a genetic algorithm, the method provided by the invention has the remarkable advantages of algorithm performance and efficiency; a solution enabling service delay to be relatively small can be obtained; and the feasibility and high efficiency of the method are proved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a virtual network function placement method based on a population incremental learning algorithm, and belongs to the field of network transmission technology and virtualization technology. Background technique [0002] In recent years, user requests for communication services have become increasingly diverse and dynamic. This trend will become more pronounced in the future considering the realization of the Internet of Things (IoT). Traditionally, communication service providers have been utilizing network functions implemented by dedicated hardware, such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems, to provide services. However, it is becoming more and more difficult to handle the diversification of communication services through hardware solutions, because it requires consuming a lot of capital and operating costs for adding and maintaining new communication services. [0003] Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is a new...
