ABSTRACT

As technology develops, the modern network becomes larger and more capable of providing all kinds of new services. Cloud computing, and some frameworks, such as Global Environment for Network Innovations (GENI), French National Lab on Future Internet (F-Lab), etc., uses the large-scale experimental facilities from networks. However, resources are always limited, and users’ demands keep increasing as well. The sharing of network hardware resources among users becomes necessary because it could use the existing infrastructure more efficiently and satisfy users’ demands.
