Abstract
A method for providing support for elasticity in network virtualisation of a heterogeneous, multi-domain network comprising receiving () from network domains information about elasticity capability of physical paths in said network domains; summarising () physical paths in said network domains into virtual links; and producing () a topology of a virtual network overlaying the multi-domain network by associating elasticity parameters with the virtual links, wherein the elasticity parameters are inferred from the physical paths.
