Summary

Recommendation ITU-T Y.3182 describes an intelligent cost-effective network management and orchestration framework that can cope with the challenges of multi-domain network slicing, while minimizing human intervention towards full automation of slice lifecycle management and runtime operation.

It addresses the following subjects:

•            Overview and interoperability requirements of machine learning based multi-domain end-to-end network slice management and orchestration;

•            Functional requirements of machine learning based multi-domain end-to-end network slice management and orchestration;

•            Framework of machine learning based multi-domain end-to-end network slice management and orchestration;

•            Cognitive components for the framework.
