  Abstract

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is a paradigm that facilitates dynamic provisioning of network services through virtualization technologies. In this vision, network services can be implemented by chaining a set of functions, implemented as software components on top of virtualized general-purpose hardware, i,e., Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). VNF placement is the problem of choosing the set of optimal locations for a chain of VNFs according to the service request at the current characteristics of available computing resources and network links. Existing works on VNF placement problem make their own models and solutions, but the standard VNF placement optimization simulator is still not addressed. Therefore, we propose a VNF placement simulator that consistently defines the inputs and outputs. The simulator helps the developer and researcher to focus more on the VNF placement algorithm development.
