Abstract
Recently, data traffic has exploded due to development of various industries, which causes problems about losing of efficiency and overloaded existing networks. To solve these problems, network slicing, which uses a virtualization technology and provides a network optimized for various services, has received a lot of attention. In this paper, we propose a resource allocation method using credit value. In the method using the clustering technology, an operation for selecting a cluster is performed whenever an allocation request for various services occurs. On the other hand, in the proposed method, the credit value is set by using the residual capacity and balancing so that the slice request can be processed without performing the operation required for cluster selection. To prove proposed method, we perform processing time and balancing simulation. As a result, the processing time and the error factor of the proposed method are reduced by about 13.72% and about 7.96% compared with the clustering method.
