Slicing Simulator Project

Overview

This project is part of a networking course and showcases a simulation a network slicing.

The goal of this implementation is to test different ressource reallocation policies and compare the results.

The simulation

We consider 1 base antenna divided into 2 virtual slices, each with their specified quality of service.

General parameters:

  • Number of slices : 2
  • Simulation time : 60 seconds
  • Central Capacity : 20
  • Re-slicing time: $\frac{simulation_time}{10}$
Slice 1 Slice 2
Rmin = 0.1 Rmin = 1
Rmax = 7 Rmax = 1.5
$\gamma = 0.3$ $\gamma =0.7$
$\lambda_{adist} = 2$ $\lambda_{adist} = 1$
$\lambda_{sdist} = 35$ $\lambda_{sdist} = 1$

We implemented two slicing schemes :

  • Static : Allocate a fix resource from the start.
  • Timed Re-slicing : Reallocate periodically using a timer.

They are respectively assigned to 0 and 1 in the <type_of_reclicing_trigger> argument found in the following section.

How to run the code

  • Clone the Repository
  • Install the required dependecies with : 
    pip install -r ./requirements.txt
  • Then simply run the Slicing_simulation.py file in ./src as such : 
    python3 Sclicing_simulation.py <simulation_time> <type_of_reclicing_trigger>
