Abstract

Distributed network testbeds like GENI aim to support a potentially large number of experiments simultaneously on a complex, widely distributed physical network by mapping each requested network onto a share or “slice” of physical hosts, switches and links. A significant challenge is : how to allocate virtual nodes, switches and links from the physical infrastructure so as to accurately emulate the requested network configurations.

Keywords: Network testbeds virtual network mapping subgraph isomorphism
