As the Personal Area Networks and small local Capillary Networks grow with the proliferation of sensors andmobile devices (IoTx), so does the volume of data traffic and security challenges. One of the uniquecharacteristic of this emerging computing paradigm is the fluctuation of computing needs. In fact, no datacollection or processing is required until the sensors are activated or mobile devices become online. Therefore,for efficiency requirements, network functionalities and specialized services should be delivered and deployedjust in time. In addition, dedicated Frameworks should be developed to enable their fast and real-time update.Based on state of the art virtualization technologies, it is difficult to move applications or functions to differentnetwork segments, mainly because of their embedded technologies and platform association. In addition, crossplatform workload mobility (e.g., from Openstack cloud to AWS or Google ) is still a big challenge.The main objective of the proposed research is to contribute to the development of novel methods and toolsallowing efficient and live on-demand deployment of network functions that will run on IoT edge equipment.

随着个人区域网络和小型本地毛细管网络随传感器和摩托设备（IOTX）的扩散而增长的，数据流量和安全挑战的数量也是如此。这种新兴计算范式的独立性化之一是计算需求的波动。实际上，在激活传感器或移动设备在线之前，不需要数据调整或处理。因此，对于效率要求，应及时提供网络功能和专业服务。此外，应该开发专门的框架以实现其快速和实时的更新。基于最先进的虚拟化技术，很难将应用程序或功能移动到不同网络段，这主要是因为其嵌入式技术和平台协会。此外，CrossPlatform的工作负载移动性（例如，从OpenStack Cloud到AWS或Google）仍然是一个巨大的挑战。拟议研究的主要目标是为开发新颖的方法和工具促进有效的网络的需求而做出贡献将在物联网边缘设备上运行的功能。
