Usually, we are unaware of

20、its workings because it functions in an involuntary, reflexive manner - for example, we do not notice when our heart beats faster or our blood vessels change size in response to temperature, posture, food intake, stressful experiences and other changes to which we are exposed.

23、Entities (MEs) assigned to be managed and controlled by a concrete DE. An ME is a protocol or a mechanism implemented by some functional entity. A Decision Element (DE) in an “Autonomic Manager Element“ implements the logic that drives a control-loop over the “management interfaces“ of its assigned

40、the global diagram describing the process and tools used by AFI Work Item 1 for designing “AFI requirements“. The starting point is capturing autonomic issues and global context from top level in order to shape the current and Future network vision. This serves as input to formulate operators requir

From the bottom level, this AFI requirement template is refined by inputs coming from AFI Use Cases & Scenarios structured within appropriate template as tool. Figure 4: AFI pr

Within NGN, the core network is based on IP and multiple access technologies and devices that may coexist alongside this IP

It is deployed to facilitate service convergence. NGN is the current network architecture for operators to fulfil the re

Figure 5: NGN Architecture overview Network and service decoupling is one of the main NGN concepts. Such decoupling is reflected in the NGN architecture.

49、As it can be viewed in figure 5, there is a clear separation between Service and Transport layers. NGN covers different access networks through a common IP core. For NGN, it is necessary to have IP connectivity among users. 4.2 Future network vision In the future, processing, storage and communication services will be highly pervasive, intertwined and strongly related to each other. What we expect is that people, smart objects, machines and the surrounding space will all be embedded with devices such as sensors, RFID t
