Network virtualization offers a powerful way to operate multiple networks, each customized to a specific purpose, at the same time over a shared substrate. One of the key challenges facing the research community is how to better utilize all elements in the network infrastructure by means of reusing a physical or logical resource. To this end, by aggregating multiple resources, network operators and service providers are able to offer a great range of new functionalities and services. The objective of this project is to carry out research activities in the area of network virtualization and develop solutions to help overcome the limitation of the current world-wide Internet architecture. It will explore new virtual network architecture based on a business model that separates between network infrastructure providers, virtual network providers and service providers. From this business model, we expect that new protocols, services, and possibly architectures can be dynamically created with the advantage of sharing a common physical infrastructure. This approach is inline with the vision for the evolution of current networks, agreed by the major players of all sectors. As a result operators shall benefit from reduced OPEX; service providers will gain through easy and unified access to network resources; and end-users will come to appreciate the simplified use of the network infrastructure and services. To achieve the project objectives, the University of Ottawa jointly with École des Technologies Superieure (ETS) and Ericsson Canada will provide the necessary effort to carry out network virtualization research in four main activities: (i) Novel network virtualization architecture, (ii) Resources discovery and allocation, (iii) Control, Management and Performance Monitoring, (iv) Quality of Protection. A proof of concept activity will be developed to demonstrate the value of the research.

网络虚拟化提供了一种强大的方式来操作多个网络，每个网络通过共享基板的同时定制为特定目的。研究社区面临的主要挑战之一是如何通过重复物理或逻辑资源更好地利用网络基础架构中的所有元素。为此，通过汇总多个资源，网络运营商和服务提供商可以提供各种新功能和服务。该项目的目的是在网络虚拟化和开发解决方案领域进行研究活动，以帮助克服当前全球互联网架构的局限性。它将基于业务模型探索新的虚拟网络体系结构，该业务模型将网络基础架构提供商，虚拟网络提供商和服务提供商之间分开。从这个业务模型中，我们期望可以动态创建新的协议，服务和可能的建筑，以共享共同的物理基础结构。这种方法与所有部门的主要参与者同意当前网络的发展的愿景。因此，运营商应受益于减少的OPEX；服务提供商将通过轻松而统一的网络资源访问来获取；最终用户将欣赏网络基础架构和服务的简化使用。为了实现项目目标，渥太华大学与ÉcoleDes技术超级赛（ETS）和加拿大爱丽丝大学将提供必要的努力，以在四个主要活动中进行网络虚拟化研究：（i）新的网络虚拟化体系结构，（ii）资源发现和分配和分配和分配，（iii）控制，管理和绩效监控，（iiv），（IV），（IV），（IV）质量的质量。将开发概念活动证明，以证明研究的价值。
