Virtual Network Embedding will be one of the key concepts of the Future Internet. For an ISP it is important to know how many additional Virtual Networks (VNs) of a specific application (e.g. web, streaming, P2P, and VoIP) are mappable into the current resource substrate with a certain probability. In this work we calculate this probability with our embedding algorithm which enables us to consider side effects based on remapping of VNs (e.g. due to reduced link delay). Our results show that minimal extra resources can significantly increase embedding probability of additional VNs.
