Abstract :
This paper briefly proposes the demonstration of a prototype system that is able to successfully govern autonomic functions and to efficiently manage virtualized resources. The demonstration also showcases how Software-Driven Networks (SDNs) can be managed using the UMF architecture, as well as how novel optimization algorithms and mechanisms can be associated with carefully designed management abstractions, in order to provide flexible management services on top of dynamic SDNs.
