Uma estratégia de leilões combinatórios para provisionamento de serviços virtualizados
Abstract
In this work, we study the use of a game theory-based auctioning strategy for provisioning virtualized services in mobile networks. This strategy aims to absorb the peak demands of mobile services clients. In this sense, we use a global strategy to assist the operators in choosing which nodes will be receiving the requested services; and a place to choose nodes that will serve as edge elements providing service to nodes that do not have access to the infrastructure. The results showed that our approach benefits the operator and the client by maintaining the equilibrium of the system.
