Intelligent optimization and machine learning for 5G network control and management

The adoption of Software Define Networking (SDN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Machine Learning (ML) will play a key role in the control and management of 5G network slices to fulfill the specific requirements of application/services and the new requirements of fifth generation (5G) networks. In this research, we propose a distributed architecture to perform network analytics applying ML techniques in the context of network operation and control of 5G networks.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
