As one of the key challenges in network virtualization, the problem of virtual network embedding has attracted\nsignificant attention from researchers. In this problem, it needs to embed virtual networks with both node and link\ndemands into a shared physical network. The main goal of this problem is to embed more virtual networks to gain\nmore revenue. However, the prior approaches still suffer from low performance and await to be further optimized in\nterms of this goal. In this paper, we design an artificial bee colony-based virtual network embedding algorithm, called\nVNE-ABC, to solve this problem. The core idea of this algorithm is to leverage the iterations and intelligence of artificial\nbee colony to achieve a more optimal solution for virtual network embedding. Through simulations, we show that our\nproposed algorithm gains about 35.4% more revenue than the existing algorithm.
