This paper addresses the challenges of delivering fine-grained Quality of Service (QoS) and communication determinism over 5G wireless networks for real-time and autonomous needs of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications while effectively sharing network resources. Specifically, this work presents DANSM, a software-defined, dynamic and autonomous network slice management middleware for 5G-based IIoT use cases, such as adaptive robotic repair. Empirical studies evaluating DANSM on our testbed comprising a Free5GC-based core and UERANSIM-based simulations reveal that the software-defined DANSM solution can efficiently balance the traffic load in the data plane thereby reducing the end-to-end response time and improve the service performance by completing 34 Algorithm (MGA), 64 subtasks than Best Fit Descending (BFD) approaches all while minimizing operational costs.
