5G lace: what are the pearls?

SD RAN: redesign access network and protocol stack by separating
control plane and user plane

Soft
Carrier Grade SDN-ing: optimal SDN architecture and algorithms for
Scalability, Reliability, QoS and Service Management

New methods and paradigms: models of all functional units reflecting
relations between performance and power dissipation

Green
Orchestration for optimally locate network functions, IT and CT
resources, services and corresponding states, especially at the Edge

Flexible/dynamic spectrum usage for as many services/applications as
possible supported by one and the same 5G network

Spectrum
New “Software Defined Air-Interface” concepts supported by unified
cloud architectures for optimal service delivery on the move

New breakthrough radio technologies for multiple accesses, interference
management techniques, and coding and modulations schemes

Proximity
Edge computing for reducing access latency, improving security and
