Sang Il Kim, Hwa Sung Kim · 2018
Recently, research on methods for reducing CAPEX and OPEX by the use of automation technology in the NFV environment has been conducted actively. In particular, technologies for the standardization and automatic generation of description formats, which describe information on VNF and network service, are actively investigated. This paper conducted data modeling for VNFs management automation and automatic network service generation, using NSD(Network Service Description) data and ontology, and similar VNF reasoning by the use of ontology reasoning technologies was carried out to define and test relationships between ontology nodes.
