HADES: An NFV solution for energy-efficient placement and resource allocation in heterogeneous infrastructures. Study dataset

The publication and research associated with this dataset are currently under review in the Journal of Network and Computer Applications.

In that research, we present HADES, an NFV solution for energy-efficient placement and resource allocation in heterogeneous infrastructures. HADES is an OSM (Open Source MANO)  extension that allows the configuration of virtual network functions and their subsequent resource allocation and deployment at the edge, minimizing energy consumption and ensuring the quality of service.

This dataset contains the following:

• 1 CSV file with execution time results of the iTAREA module for (60) different problem sizes and (3) execution environments.
• 1 CSV file with energy consumption results of HADES deployments and other 5 assignment policies: First-fit, Random-fit, Fastest-fit, Best-fit, and kube-scheduler (the Kubernetes’ assignment policy).
