However, it lacks of a framework that orchestrates network functions to service chain in the network cooperatively. In this paper, we propose a function combination framework that can dynamically adapt the network based on the integration NFV and SDN. There are two main contributions in this paper. First, the function combination framework based on the integration of SDN and NFV is proposed to address the function combination issue, including the architecture of Service Deliver Network, the port types representing traffic directions and the explanation of terms. Second, we formulate the issue of load balance of function combination as the model minimizing the standard deviations of all servers' loads and satisfying the demand of performance and limit of resource. The least busy placement algorithm is introduced to approach optimal solution of the problem. Finally, experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can combine functions in an efficient and scalable way and ensure the load balance of the network.展开更多

The following questions are first studied: (a) The closed bounds of the probability that waiting time is more than a fixed value; (b)The total busy time of the server, which including the distribution, probability that are more than a fixed value during a given time interval (0, t], and the expected value.

During construction, the concrete cap beam is hung externally on the slide beam through the embedded leg, and the concrete beam does not directly contact with the slide beam. A self-propelled jacking device is used to carry out two-point jacking. In the process of jacking, the concrete cap beam is always in the form of simple support to ensure the safety of jacking construction.展开更多
