One of the key goals of future 5G networks is to incorporate many different services into a single physical network, where each service has its logical network isolated from other networks. Besides, Network Slicing (NS) is considered as the key technology for meeting the service requirements of diverse application domains. Recently, NS faces several algorithmic challenges for 5G networks. This paper provides a review related to NS architecture with a focus on relevant Management and Orchestration (MANO) architecture across multiple domains. In addition, this survey paper delivers a deep analysis and a taxonomy of NS algorithmic aspects. Finally, this paper highlights some of the open issues and future directions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
