"Optimizing Virtual Functions Deployment in Multi-UAVs IoT Networks" by Athena Forghani, Kwan Wu Chin et al.
In Internet of Things (IoT) networks, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play a critical role as mobile nodes that can be deployed to carry out data collection and computation. In this respect, this paper considers an operator that deploys UAVs to satisfy requests from IoT applications that require Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) that may communicate with one another to be executed at different geographical locations. To this end, this paper formulates a novel Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) t...
