Abstract

With the existence of the network virtualization, the mapping issue of it has received a tremendous attention in recent research. However, the progress of virtual network (VN) mapping is quite complicate due to different constraints and the large variety of the topologies of VN. VN mapping method also varies under different conditions. In this paper, we investigate survivable mapping for VN request with the geographic location constraint of each VN node. Since the VN mapping problem is NP-hard, we propose two heuristic algorithms called Geographic based Survivable VN Mapping (G-SVNM) and Geographic-Guided Survivable VN Mapping (GG-SVNM) to solve this problem. Considering the effect that virtual nodes' geographic locations while VN mapping, these two algorithms make VN mapping more practical. Furthermore, we compare the performances and costs of these two algorithms through simulation experiments.
