DESCRIPTION:In 5G networks\, mobile service providers will support vertical
  slices of mobile applications to meet diverse service quality requirement
 s\, such as ultra-low latency\, densely distributed users and high reliabi
 lity. Meanwhile\, wireless traffic is explosively growing\, driven by wide
 spread mobile communication devices and increasing popularity of mobile ap
 plications. The wireless network slicing technique\, which is built on net
 work function virtualization and software defined network schemes\, will s
 upport wireless applications on substrate physical facilities with higher 
 flexibility and lower cost.\n\nA scheduling policy for wireless network sl
 icing should maximize the energy efficiency of the network. (Here\, we def
 ine energy efficiency as the ratio of long-run average throughput of user 
 requests to the long-run average power consumption.) This is a problem of 
 extremely high computational complexity\, which prevents direct applicatio
 n of conventional optimization techniques. We have developed a policy call
 ed Most Energy-Efficient Resource First (MEERF)\, which is scalable and pr
 iority-based. MEERF is asymptotically optimal in a local wireless environm
 ent with highly dense user population and exponentially distributed servic
 e times. Our extensive simulations show the robustness of MEERF to differe
 nt service time distributions. We also show the effectiveness of MEERF com
 pared to benchmark policies in a more general network with potentially geo
 graphically distributed users and infrastructures.\n\nOnline\, https://us0

 cy for wireless network slicing should maximize the energy efficiency of t
 he network. (Here\, we define energy efficiency as the ratio of long-run a
 verage throughput of user requests to the long-run average power consumpti
 on.) This is a problem of extremely high computational complexity\, which 
 prevents direct application of conventional optimization techniques. We ha
 ve developed a policy called Most Energy-Efficient Resource First (MEERF)\
 , which is scalable and priority-based. MEERF is asymptotically optimal in
  a local wireless environment with highly dense user population and expone
 ntially distributed service times. Our extensive simulations show the robu
 stness of MEERF to different service time distributions. We also show the 
 effectiveness of MEERF compared to benchmark policies in a more general ne
