Abstract
A key characteristic of existing and emerging networks is the use of a smart transport including its softwarization/virtualization for supporting  applications and services with varied QoS/QoE requirements, all of which must be supported by this smart transport. Appropriate mechanisms are needed to achieve the required levels of QoS/QoE, especially for applications that are latency- and loss-sensitive. Some applications may also require a large amount of bandwidth and strict quality assurance, which makes the support for QoS/QoE challenging, in particular under a softwarized/virtualised network environment.
