vCDN in pervasive networks
Authors: Marinela Mertiri, Vasileios Theodorou – INTRACOM TELECOM Introduction User mobility and spatio-temporal variations in content popularity make the end-to-end deployment and undisrupted operation of IP-based mobile video streaming services, such as IPTV and Video-on-Demand (VoD), very complicated. In order to maintain a high Quality of Experience (QoE) for mobile clients, the common practice is […]
5GZORRO Cloud-Native Open Source MEC Platform
Author: Katherine Barabash, David Breitgand and Avi Weit, IBM 5GZORRO architecture is created to enable several advanced multi-provider 5G use cases. One of the use cases, Pervasive vCDN Services put forward by INTRACOM, is depicted in the figure below. The use case calls for on-demand provisioning of additional service resources based on user requests load, […]

Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs) in the Telecom space
Author: Eduardo Santiago, Ubiwhere This post serves as an introduction as to how companies in the Telecommunications sector can leverage this novelty and how some have already done so, while also taking into consideration the possible repercussions in such adoption. Ubiwhere, along with its consortium members Altice Labs, Atos, Bartr, Comunicare Digitale, Fondazione Bruno […]
5GZORRO: Enabling Governed Distributed Security & Trust in 5GZORRO
Authors: Bruno Santos and André Gomes, Altice Labs Concept of Trust in a 5GZORRO Governed Distributed Environment One of the key challenges of obtaining trusted entities in a non-centralised ecosystem is the proof of identity. These need to be standardised across the whole distributed platform, in order to avoid compatibility and segregation issues through […]
5GZORRO Platform: The future of multi-party 5G networks in automated, secure, and trustful way
Authors: Gino Carrozzo and Pietro G. Giardina, Nextworks Srl Future communication networks are built on the convergence between established technology assets such as 5G, edge computing, software-defined networks, and emerging breakthroughs such as AI, cloud-native solutions and distributed ledgers. 5G network solutions currently deployed do not yet enable the full potential of pervasive networking and […]
Towards a dynamic spectrum marketplace: 5GZORRO approach
Author: Antoine Sciberras, Malta Communications Authority This blog post is connected with UC1 and UC2 Radio Spectrum – Connectivity’s scarce resource “The EU’s goal is for Europe to be the most connected continent by 2030”[1]. Such is the ambition set out by Europe as it makes its first steps along the Path to the […]
5GZORRO WP4: Zero Touch Automation with Trust, Security and AI
The fifth-generation mobile communications demonstrated to be one of the main catalysts for the pervasive digitalisation of our society: ultra-high bandwidth, low latency and increased connectivity density are some of the main characteristics of 5G which Vertical industries are leveraging to implement innovative applications for business.
Despite the considerable progress of the last few years, state of the art 5G networks nowadays (up to 3GPP Release 16) are not yet at the stage of complete achievement of all the challenging performance requirements and features promised, both in terms of specifications and prototypes and products.
5GZORRO Use Case 3: Pervasive Virtual Content Distribution Network (vCDN) Services
The fifth-generation mobile communications demonstrated to be one of the main catalysts for the pervasive digitalisation of our society: ultra-high bandwidth, low latency and increased connectivity density are some of the main characteristics of 5G which Vertical industries are leveraging to implement innovative applications for business.
