As the Personal Area Networks and small local Capillary Networks grow with the proliferation of sensors andx000D
mobile devices (IoTx), so does the volume of data traffic and security challenges. One of the uniquex000D
characteristic of this emerging computing paradigm is the fluctuation of computing needs. In fact, no datax000D
collection or processing is required until the sensors are activated or mobile devices become online. Therefore,x000D
for efficiency requirements, network functionalities and specialized services should be delivered and deployedx000D
just in time. In addition, dedicated Frameworks should be developed to enable their fast and real-time update.x000D
Based on state of the art virtualization technologies, it is difficult to move applications or functions to differentx000D
network segments, mainly because of their embedded technologies and platform association. In addition, crossx000D
platform workload mobility (e.g., from Openstack cloud to AWS or Google ) is still a big challenge.x000D
The main objective of the proposed research is to contribute to the development of novel methods and toolsx000D
allowing efficient and live on-demand deployment of network functions that will run on IoT edge equipment.
