Service Provisioning within a Choice-Based Network
Robinson Udechukwu, Rudra Dutta, Takaya Miyazawa, Hiroaki Harai · 2018
We have previously presented ChoiceNet, a choice-based architecture for the future Internet. ChoiceNet enables users to choose and pay for advertised competing service component offerings and independently compose the end-to-end service they require. Over time, this system rewards successful services, enabling innovation at all levels of networking, and creating a beneficial ecosystem. Provisioning is an internal operation performed by the service providers. In this paper, we examine practical ways of handling the provisioning of ChoiceNet services and discuss the benefits and disadvantages of each approach.
