An apparatus may include a hierarchical arrangement of a plurality of resource slices of a mobile network. Each of a plurality of logical networks is allocated a resource slice within the mobile network for each of a plurality of layers, wherein each logical network provides network services for one of a plurality of service categories; wherein each logical network includes at least one dedicated resource slice that is dedicated to the logical network, and at least one shared resource slice that is shared among a plurality of the logical networks; the plurality of resource slices including a plurality of resource slices of a first layer and a plurality of resource slices of a second layer, wherein the first layer is lower than the second layer, wherein data from a set of the resource slices of the second layer are aggregated into a single resource slice of the first layer (downlink direction) and data from the single resource slice of the first layer is demultiplexed and forwarded to a selected resource slice of the set of resource slices of the second layer (uplink direction).
