Dr Sławomir Kukliński

Abstract of the talk: The network slicing is relatively a new concept that allows for the creation of multiple network and service instances over a shared infrastructure. There are numerous benefits of the network slicing approach: the network slices can be deployed quickly, and slice tenants do not need to have the infrastructure to define their solutions. Moreover, each network slice can be appropriately tailored to its service(s). In the talk, the concepts, standardization efforts (3GPP, ITU-T, ETSI) and open issues related to network slicing will be presented. The talk will deal with architectural approaches, management and orchestrations issues (scalability) and AI usage. I will also discuss the technical limitation of current approaches in the context of a new business model and outline the necessary modifications of the current approaches.
