Virtual Network Resource Allocation Based on Stackelberg Game Research
Authors: , ,
Abstract: In view of the network resources allocation problem in network virtualization environment, combined with the Stackelberg game model, this paper proposes a resources allocation scheme that can satisfy the maximum utility of the substrate network and virtual network at the same time. Firstly, it designed a utility function of virtual network based on revenue and cost, and proved in the price of the substrate network is determined, the utility function meet the conditions of concave function, which guarantee the Nash equilibrium point of non-cooperative game between the virtual network. In order to obtain the optimal bandwidth strategy in virtual network and the optimal pricing strategy in substrate network, the paper proposed a distributed iterative algorithm. Finally verified the effectiveness of the algorithm by numerical simulation experiments, and obtained the optimal strategy of players and the sub-game perfect Nash equilibrium.
