NfV PoCs - Use Cases, Architecture Function Blocks and Reference Points.

Under the aegis of ETSI, an initiative of developing Proof of Concepts (PoCs) was started to "build industrial awareness and confidence in NFV". These demonstrations of Proof of concepts  help in verifying that the NfV concepts have the potential for real-world applications. The details can be found here.

In this blog, we do not cover the details of PoCs (Hopefully in a separate blog). However, we summarize the proposed PoCs (around 24) with respect to the the following:
1. Proposed Used-Cases
2. NfV Architecture Functional Blocs
3. NfV Architecture Reference Points.

The details of (1) can be found here, whereas the details of (2) and (3) can be found here.
For quicker-reference, we enlist the three below:


 In the below table, on Y-Axis the PoCs are enlisted, whereas the x-axis has Use-Cases (UC#), Functional Blocks (FB#) and Reference Points (RP#) .

The Plots highlighting the PoC coverage with respect to the above three concepts are shown below:
