Improvement of Network/Service Resiliency with a Movable and Deployable ICT Resource Unit

We have recently proposed a resilient network architecture based on a movable unit. The unit, which we call Movable and Deployable ICT Resource Unit or MDRU, hosts the resources required to offer ICT services. To confirm the effectiveness of the architecture, we develop a prototype MDRU and test bed environment and conduct an evaluation of the architecture. This paper reports the results of concept proof experiments and a demonstration of the resilient network architecture.
