Bi-Level Programming Model and Algorithm for VNF Deployment With Data Centers Placement

Virtual network function (VNF) can provide various network services and is widely deployed in inter-data centers elastic optical networks (Inter-DC EONs). Routing and VNF deployment for VNF service chain (VNF-SC) in Inter-DC EONs is a very important and well-known NP-hard problem. For this problem,...
