Network slicing is an emerging technique for providing resources to diverse\nwireless services with heterogeneous quality-of-service needs. However, beyond\nsatisfying end-to-end requirements of network users, network slicing needs to\nalso provide isolation between slices so as to prevent one slice's faults and\ncongestion from affecting other slices. In this paper, the problem of network\nslicing is studied in the context of a wireless system having a time-varying\nnumber of users that require two types of slices: reliable low latency (RLL)\nand self-managed (capacity limited) slices. To address this problem, a novel\ncontrol framework for stochastic optimization is proposed based on the Lyapunov\ndrift-plus-penalty method. This new framework enables the system to minimize\npower, maintain slice isolation, and provide reliable and low latency\nend-to-end communication for RLL slices. Simulation results show that the\nproposed approach can maintain the system's reliability while providing\neffective slice isolation in the event of sudden changes in the network\nenvironment.\n
