Integrated Management and Control Architecture for New Generation Networks

The paradigm shifts that are emerging in the future Internet (FI), together with the increasingly larger scales on number of devices, connectivity, and interactivity are challenging the traditional model of devices’ control and management. Thus, it is necessary to re-examine the current control/management models under the optics of the FI proposals that arise in some emerging technologies, including Internet of things, softwaredefined networking, network function virtualization, informationcentric networking and others FI concepts. This paper discuss emerging technologies for future Internet under the perspective of network management and control. It also proposes a new control/management model in the context of a future Internet proposal called NovaGenesis.
