Abstract

In this paper, we propose three metrics that could be used for accessing the effectiveness of a dynamic Network Slicing. On the one hand re-slicing could result in more adaptive resource allocation for different virtual network operators (VNO), but could arise the signaling overhead. On the other hand an insufficient amount of re-slicing could significantly decrease the quality of service for VNO users, but reduce the signaling delays. Proposed metrics could be used for analyzing the above-mentioned effect. We illustrate the metrics by the simulation model for a simple dynamic network slicing algorithm. We also propose a queuing system approach for analyzing dynamic network slicing for 2 VNOs.
