Software Defined Optical Networks (SDONs): A Comprehensive Survey (2015, background): “, a given SDN network can be virtualized, i.e., a given SDN network infrastructure can be abstracted and offered to multiple tenants (e.g., service providers) as multiple isolated virtual SDN network [5], [6]. While the ﬂexible operation of multiple virtual SDN networks over a given installed SDN ne”
ViNEYard: Virtual Network Embedding Algorithms With Coordinated Node and Link Mapping (2012, background): “In a network virtualization environment, multiple service providers (SPs) will be able to create heterogeneous virtual networks (VNs) to offer customized end-to-end services to the end-users by leasing shared resources from one or more infrastructure providers (InPs) without significant investment i”
