We propose to realize incentive-driven virtual network function service chain provisioning in broker-based elastic optical inter-datacenter networks with mixed-strategy gaming and design a heuristic to find the near-equilibrium solutions. Simulation results verify both the effectiveness and stability of the proposed approach.
