This year’s edition of MOBISLICE will shed a transversal multi-disciplinary look at what have been the cutting-edge prospects and instalments for enabling network slicing. Inspired by the recent trials in 5G deployments, their proposition for Beyond-5G capabilities and the current early progression work on 6G, MOBISLICE will showcase evidence of the pursuit for definite solutions towards this utilization capability paradigm. What have been the major hurdles for network slicing? Which mechanisms are the ones that best contribute to such offering? Which utilization scenarios best evidence the capabilities provided by existing network-slicing capable deployments, and how to improvement? What about failed attempts: where do the key issues lie? Which are the learnt stories? From all the supportive 5G enablers (e.g., softwarization, virtualization, AI/ML, service-based architecture, ...) what still needs to be done, and what can be used to help shape the future of networks for slicing?
The MOBISLICE workshop focuses, but is not limited to, the following topics targeting slicing:

Hans Einsiedler, Deutsche Telekom
Short bio: Hans Joachim Einsiedler was born in 1966 in Ravensburg, Germany. He received the Dipl.-Ing. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1994. He worked at the IBM Research Laboratory in Zurich, at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, and at the University of Bern in Switzerland. He joined Deutsche Telekom in 1999 and was leader of pre-competitive R&D projects. He became a member of the Telekom Innovation Laboratories on May 1, 2004 and was a team leader. His topics are next generation control platforms and planes, Fixed-Mobile Convergence, and the extension of the Internet Protocol. Hans was the Deutsche Telekom AG responsible for the European R&D platforms, e.g. the ETP Networld2020, Future Internet, 5G PPP, and others. From end of 2019 until beginning of 2022, Hans was leading an activity for the preparation of the roll-out of the 5G Core for the whole Deutsche Telekom group in the department Technology and Innovation. Now his focus is on the evolution of the cloud-native and Service-based Architecture principle for the telecommunication infrastructure. This is currently restricted to the core but will be manifested in an end-to-end design for beyond 5G and 6G. It will also include security, trustworthiness, and sustainability by design from the beginning.
Keynote Topic: Cloud native infrastructures: The enabler for virtual networks
The workshop will be held on the 7th November, 2023, in conjunction with the IX IEEE Conference on Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networks
Improved versions of selected published papers will be invited for possible inclusion in one of the following Special Issues:
