Problems solved by technology

[0005] The existing online and offline scheduling methods of the network consider the optimization problem of single-dimensional resource deployment, but in fact, each network function needs to consume multiple resources on the server during operation, for example, while consuming CPU clock cycles , but also consume server memory resources, etc.
Other research work has proved that when the available resources of the server are limited, the operation of network functions may become a network bottleneck, resulting in packet loss and performance degradation

Embodiment Construction

[0034] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] A network function deployment method considering multi-dimensional resource constraints of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0036] 1) Abstract the network function deployment problem into an MVDP mathematical model and give a linear programming expression;

[0037] In the embodiment, the abstraction process is as follows:

[0038] The MVDP mathematical model is represented by a tuple (M, F), where M represents a collection of platforms running network functions, and F represents a collection of traffic in the network.

[0039] Each flow should pass through a set of network functions (VNFs). Assuming that the set of network functions that each flow needs to pass through is known, what needs to be determined is which server platform each network function needs to be installed and run on. Assume that each network func...

Abstract

The invention discloses a network function deployment method considering multi-dimensional resource constraints, comprising the following steps: abstracting the network function deployment problem into an MVDP mathematical model; proving that the problem in the model is an NP-hard problem; and providing offline and online approximate scheduling algorithms solve. Based on the service chain of the network function that each traffic needs to pass through and the resources required by each, the method of the present invention can obtain an optimal service chain deployment plan, so that the deployment cost of the total service chain is the smallest, and the resources consumed by the network function The maximum resource capacity of the server will not be exceeded; the deployment decision of the present invention can ensure that the network function required by each flow must be deployed on the server node through which the flow passes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of 5G network slicing, network function virtualization and software-defined network, and specifically relates to a network function deployment method considering multi-dimensional resource constraints. Background technique [0002] While 5G, which is about to be commercialized in 2020, is widely mentioned, Network Slicing has to be mentioned. As the most discussed technology in 5G, network slicing is of great significance to 5G. Network slicing, in essence, divides an operator's physical network into multiple virtual logical networks. Each virtual network is divided according to different service requirements, such as delay, bandwidth, security, and reliability, so as to respond flexibly Different network application scenarios. [0003] In the 5G era, the objects of mobile network services are no longer purely mobile phones, but various types of devices, including mobile phones, tablets, fixed sensors, veh...
