This paper contributes to the vision of the NECOS project and relevant platform, that aim to address the limitations of current cloud computing infrastructures to accomplish the challenging requirements of the slicing approach. The NECOS platform implements the Slice-as-a-Service model, enabling the dynamic creation of end-to-end (E2E) slices from a set of constituent slice parts contributed from multiple domains. A challenging issue is to define the facility that implements dynamic slice resource discovery, aligned to the requirements of the slice owner or tenant, over different infrastructure providers. Here, we propose a Marketplace-based approach implementing relevant federated interactions for the resource discovery and we detail its architecture, workflows, and information model. We also present its initial implementation details and provide both quantitative and qualitative experimental results validating its main operation. date: 2019-08-22 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: https://doi.org/10.1109/NETSOFT.2019.8806668 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1697520 doi: 10.1109/NETSOFT.2019.8806668 isbn_13: 978-1-5386-9376-6 lyricists_name: Clayman, Stuart lyricists_id: SCLAY98 actors_name: Clayman, Stuart actors_id: SCLAY98 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public series: IEEE Conference on Network Softwarization (NetSoft) publication: Proceedings of the 2019 IEEE Conference on Network Softwarization: Unleashing the Power of Network Softwarization, NetSoft 2019 volume: 2019 place_of_pub: Paris, France pagerange: 480-488 event_title: 2019 IEEE Conference on Network Softwarization (NetSoft) book_title: Proceedings of the 2019 IEEE Conference on Network Softwarization (NetSoft) citation: Maciel, PD; Verdi, FL; Valsamas, P; Sakellariou, I; Mamatas, L; Petridou, S; Papadimitriou, P; ...
