The goal of this assignment is to optimally place three virtual network functions in a Fat-Tree data
center using Linear programming.
The following table shows the number of resources that is required for each vNF.
We plan to solve the problem for two following groups of traffic flows: The first table includes two
traffic flows, and the second table includes 5 traffic flows. For each flow, the source/destination
nodes, the required bandwidth and the required vNFs has been defined.
The capacity (vCPU and vMEM) of each switch has been shown in the attached CSV file.
A Fat-Tree topology has been created and attached to this assignment.
The output file should include the switches that you identified as the optimal places for the vNFs
required by each flow.
