“…In the last few years, other papers have presented similar techniques aimed at allowing live migration of Virtual Machines across different IP subnets [3], [13], [14]. The solution presented in this paper applies to migration within a single datacenter and does not require any modification to the public Internet.…”

“…In this paper we propose an innovative solution that allows transparent migration of VMs across the whole datacenter by adapting the novel Service Switching paradigm, originally proposed for supporting geographic migration of network services [3]. Our solution is based on the coordinated use of NAT rules and ARP proxying that needs to be consistently managed across the layers of the datacenter networking infrastructure.…”

Abstract-Cloud-enabled datacenters need advanced support for an integrated management of platform virtualization technologies. The networking infrastructure of large-scale datacenters is implemented according to redundant multi-tiered architectures whose layers operate at Layer 3 of the networking stack. Splitting the network infrastructure of a datacenter in a number of IP subnets, however, creates limits to the migration of Virtual Machines, reducing the possibility for administrators to efficiently balance the load and reduce the energy consumption of the whole infrastructure. In this paper we propose an innovative solution that allows transparent migration of Virtual Machines across the whole datacenter, based on the coordinated use of NAT rules that need to be consistently managed across the layers of the datacenter networking infrastructure. We describe in details how our approach can be easily implemented with current network devices without any modification to their hardware and present an experimental evaluation of an early prototype of our solution.

“…Sensor network virtualization is one of the best ways to utilize the physical sensor node. Virtualization of sensor networks can provide a platform upon which novel sensor network architectures can be built, experimented and evaluated [ 11 – 17 ]. In addition, virtualization in WSNs is expected to provide a clean separation of services and infrastructure and facilitate new ways of doing business by allowing the trading of sensor network resources among multiple service providers and application level users [ 18 – 20 ].…”

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are gaining tremendous importance thanks to their broad range of commercial applications such as in smart home automation, health-care and industrial automation. In these applications multi-vendor and heterogeneous sensor nodes are deployed. Due to strict administrative control over the specific WSN domains, communication barriers, conflicting goals and the economic interests of different WSN sensor node vendors, it is difficult to introduce a large scale federated WSN. By allowing heterogeneous sensor nodes in WSNs to coexist on a shared physical sensor substrate, virtualization in sensor network may provide flexibility, cost effective solutions, promote diversity, ensure security and increase manageability. This paper surveys the novel approach of using the large scale federated WSN resources in a sensor virtualization environment. Our focus in this paper is to introduce a few design goals, the challenges and opportunities of research in the field of sensor network virtualization as well as to illustrate a current status of research in this field. This paper also presents a wide array of state-of-the art projects related to sensor network virtualization.

Ubiquitous network access allows people to access an ever increasing range of services from a variety of mobile terminals, including laptops, tablets and smartphones. A flexible and economically efficient way of provisioning such services is through Cloud Computing. Assuming that several cloudenabled datacenters are made available at the edges of the Internet, service providers may take advantage of them by optimally locating service instances as close as possible to their users. By localizing traffic at the edges of access networks, such an approach may result beneficial for both service and network providers. In this paper we present FollowMe Cloud (FMC), a technology developed at NEC Laboratories Europe that allows transparent migration of services in TCP/IP networks, thanks to the dynamic configuration of a set of coordinated OpenFlow switches located at the edge of the network. In particular, in this paper we analyze the scalability properties of an FMC-based system and propose a role separation strategy based on distribution of control plane functions which enables scale-out of the system. By means of simulation, we prove that the application of the proposed separation strategy results in less state retained by individual OpenFlow controllers and in more effective localization of network traffic.
