Abstract

In this paper, we build a virtualization platform based on double-FlowVisors in multiple domains Production Network to abstract the underlying hardware and provision unified API to the APPS in application layer, which can increase resource utilization rate and reduce blocking probability. As a proof of concept, we implement an experimental scenario dealing with virtualization in multiple domain networks. Experimental demonstration is conducted with results of 5-9% blocking probability reduction and 10-15% resource utilization rate increasement.
