We propose the innovative architecture of Superfluidity, a Horizon 2020 project, co-funded by the European Union. Superfluidity targets 5G networks, by addressing key network operator challenges with a multi-pronged approach, based on the concept of a flexible, highly adaptive, superfluid network. Superfluidity supports rapid service deployment and migration in a heterogeneous network environment, regardless of the underlying hardware. The overall proposal offers advanced capabilities in terms of service deployment and interoperability, while guaranteeing high-performance levels end-to-end.

Abstract

We propose the innovative architecture of Superfluidity, a Horizon 2020 project, co-funded by the European Union. Superfluidity targets 5G networks, by addressing key network operator challenges with a multi-pronged approach, based on the concept of a flexible, highly adaptive, superfluid network. Superfluidity supports rapid service deployment and migration in a heterogeneous network environment, regardless of the underlying hardware. The overall proposal offers advanced capabilities in terms of service deployment and interoperability, while guaranteeing high-performance levels end-to-end.
