NetSoft 2015 - 1st IEEE International Conference on Network Softwarization (NetSoft 2015)

Software-Defined Networks (SDN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV), and Software-Defined Clouds could be seen as different expressions of an overall transformation trend, which is deeply impacting and bridging Telecom and IT industries. This trend is also transforming several other Industries, in using "softwarization" to optimize costs and processes and in bringing new values in infrastructures. In particular, SDN, NFV and network programmability are creating the conditions to reinvent network and cloud architectures, accelerate service deployment and facilitate infrastructure management. Accordingly, the theme of NetSoft 2015 is "Software-Defined Infrastructures (SDI) for Networks, Clouds and Services".
