Abstract
Network virtualization allows for a flexible resource management when many service providers share the same physical infrastructure. In this chapter, the problem of capacity allocation in transmission links of virtual SDN is considered. It is assumed that physical capacity can be leased by a number of virtual network operators, who, in turn, may use their capacity to carry users’ transmissions. Two solution algorithms are presented. First, an algorithm based on augmented Lagrangian gradient ascent is proposed. The second approach is based on a game-theoretic model. An algorithm for computing a pure Nash Equilibrium is presented. Results of the simulation experiments, comparing both methods, are presented.
