Introduction
AI has potential in creating value in terms of enhanced workload availability and improved performance and efficiency for NFV usecases. This work aims to build machine-Learning models and Tools that can be used by Telcos (typically by the operations team in Telcos). Each of these models aims to solve single problem within a particular category. For example, the first category we have chosen is Failure prediction, and we aim to create 6 models - failure prediction of VMs. Containers, Nodes, Network-Links, Applications, and middleware services. This project also aims to define set of data models for each of the decision making problems, that will help both provider and consumer of the data to collaborate.

Timeline and Goals
...
Phase-1 Goals
- Running ML-Framework with at least 3 existing (enhanced) models for NFV.
- Generate Synthetic Data using ML.
- Identify 3 problems for which ML can be applied in NFV - For which no acceptable models exist.
- Identify the ML technique that can be used for these problems.
Phase-1 Bonus
- Build Two Tools
- AlgoSelector
- TVLVapp
Phase-1 Weekly Activity
12 weeks, if the Intern is working Full-time.
Understand the state of art - Publications and OS projects
Analyze the Gaps.
Create a 1-Page report based on the analysis.
Identify the problems in NFV for which the techniques are still not good enough.
Share the State of the art survey.
Provide initial gap analysis.
Understand the art of publications and OS projects. Decided to go with LFN Acumos. Chose a problem domain: Failure Prediction to start working with. Completed the reading papers related to Failure Prediction and updated the implementation details till now whatever I have got.
Status: Completed
1-page report where mentioned failures and what type of failures.
|
Deploy the ML Framework (Tentative: LFN Acumos).
- Document the usage workflow
- Try any existing model.
Provide access to the server(s).
Intel Pod?
Collect, analyze and document the implementation of 3 existing models for NFV.
Collect the data.
Deploy the models on the framework (2)
Collect the data (contd).
