Program Purpose:

With the exponential growth of massive connectivity especially with the arrival of new players such as internetx000D
of things (IoT) as it is one of the most important challenges in 5G networks, Kontron wants to test andx000D
optimize the capacity of its actual platforms to make them more suited for the next mobile generation. In thisx000D
vein, the purpose of this project is to implement new smart solutions to analyze the network's trafficx000D
performance (i,e bottleneck) and optimize its resources in Fog radio access network (F-RAN) environment.x000D
Our aim is to allocate computing recourses to run different processes between different fog nodes per switch,x000D
which optimizes the configuration of the architecture and balance the traffic aiming to reduce the use of thex000D
network offloading.
