    摘要: A method of providing at least one Network Service (NS) to a Network Slice (NwS) during a design phase of the NwS based on a NwS Forwarding Graph (NwS FG) which comprises Network Functions (NFs) at a functional level, Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and/or Physical Network Functions (PNFs) at a resource level, and embedding information for embedding the VNFs and/or PNFs (VNFs/PNFs) across more than one domain. The method determines, based on the NwS FG, Network Slice Subnets (NwSSs) for the NwS, wherein NFs comprising the NwS FG are grouped into respective groups to be managed by a respective NwSS manager. The method further maps the NwSSs to NSs based on Network Function Virtualization Orchestrator (NFVO) assigned to a domain, wherein at least some of the VNFs/PNFs managed by respective NFVOs are mapped to sites across the multiple domains determined by the embedding information.

    摘要: Methods, systems, devices, and tangible non-transitory computer readable media for checking computing device inactivity are provided. The disclosed technology can access, based on a device policy, organizational data associated with activity of a user's computing device. Based on the device policy and the organizational data, a valid inactivity time period including continuous organization approved time periods of valid inactivity beginning at a most recent time the computing device was active and ending a predetermined amount of time after the most recent time can be determined. Based on the device policy and the organizational data, a determination of whether inactivity criteria associated with inactivity of the computing device are satisfied is made. Satisfying the inactivity criteria can include the computing device being inactive after the valid inactivity time period. Furthermore, indications associated with the computing device's inactivity can be generated if the inactivity criteria are satisfied.
