Virtual functions orchestration costs : from identification to prediction
This work utilizes a well-known container platform to perform a series of experiment to assert the associated cost posed by the orchestration of virtualized functions, and results indicate that predictions can be accurate within reasonable range, and therefore future orchestration algorithms may benefit from considering such predictions when defining the best orchestration plan available.

An orchestrated 5G‐enabled deep vCDN system
A novel orchestration framework for deep and 5G‐enabled vCDN services is proposed, and builds on two main capabilities: a) the dynamic provisioning of v CDN Edge nodes, enabling content placement at the network Edge based on nearby user's presence, and b) Preemptive video content placement, for users rapidly moving between different edge regions.

Application, Workload, and Infrastructure Models for Virtualized Content Delivery Networks Deployed in Edge Computing Environments
It has been shown that leveraging edge resources for the deployment of caches of content greatly benefits CDNs, and the models are described from an edge computing perspective and intended to be integrated in network topology aware application orchestration and resource management systems.

Virtual CDN Providers: Profit Maximization through Collaboration
The overall problem of content placement for multiple vCDN providers that employ collaboration as an overall social-welfare maximization problem is formulated and a distributed algorithm for content placement is devised by exchanging limited information among them.

Content Delivery Networks - Q-Learning Approach for Optimization of the Network Cost and the Cache Hit Ratio
A Content Delivery Network model is proposed that allows us to choose the best trade-off between costs and cache hit ratio and it is shown that the current model is inadequate.
