Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Multiple virtual network can be accommodated on a single substrate network by using the network virtualization technologies. To accommodate the multiple virtual networks, where to embed the virtual networks is an important problem. This problem is called virtual network embedding (VNE).
In VNE, the virtual machines are embedded depending on the request from each service provider.
Most of the existing VNE methods assume that required resources are static.
However, the fluctuations of service may occur, which leads to the change in the required resources.
In this paper, we propose the flexible VNE method that follows the changes in the required resources by applying the model predictive control (MPC) to VNE.
The VNE based on the MPC considers the future changes in required resources decreasing the impact of the prediction errors by correcting the prediction.
However, the MPC takes a large time to calculate the optimal inputs as the number of the virtual networks becomes large.
Therefore, we apply the distributed MPC (DMPC), where multiple agents are deployed, and each of them calculates the sub problem of the problem to be solved.
We evaluated our method by simulation.
The results indicate that the VNE based on DMPC can follow the fluctuations of service and reduce time to calculate.
