Abstract
The broad scope of the IEEE Communications Magazine Series on Network Softwarization and Management covers two aspects of communication networks that have become highly relevant nowadays. On one hand, network softwarization advocates for architectures where software and programmability aspects in the implementation of network functions, protocols, and services are decoupled from the underlying infrastructure, fostering unprecedented levels of flexibility, abstraction, automation, and intelligence. On the other hand, network management aims at integrating fault, configuration, accounting, performance, and security (FCAPS) capabilities in the network, and supporting advanced autonomic and self-management features, often taking advantage of the potential offered by network softwarization. The intent of this Series is to provide a timely source of in-depth, cutting-edge articles on state-of-the-art technologies and solutions for network softwarization and management.
