This paper presents a novel physically inspired algorithm for efficiently solving the virtual network embedding problem of placing a virtual network over a substrate network. Compared to a reference heuristic, our algorithm shows lower rejection rates and improved substrate network utilization. %G English %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01056480/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01056480/file/029_eunice_2010lallemand_reifertcamera_ready_28Final_Version_29_v1.pdf %L hal-01056480 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01056480 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-LNCS-6164 %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-WG6-6 %~ IFIP-EUNICE %~ IFIP-2010
