FIRE - Future Internet Research and Experimentation

Future Internet Research: Why

The Internet of today: it works, but:

Designed as a best effort service infrastructure

Scalability issues, Security, trust, mobility..

Fixing the perceived deficiencies of today

Tomorrow, more to come

Connected objects, Sensors;

Geo location services, physical meet virtual world

Clouds, virtualisation,

Preparing for the usages of tomorrow

Ultimately every object/process “Internetised”

Towards smart usages and applications

Smart cities and environments

Tackling societal challenges

FI underpinning smart societies and economies

Internet of Services, Service Web

Networks of the Future

3D & Media Internet

Internet of Things

Trust

Security

A multi dimensional technological approach

open research environment,

which facilitates strategic

research and development on

new Internet concepts giving

researchers an instrument to

carry out large-scale

experimentation on new

paradigms

evaluated under individual, not comparable and not repeatable

conditions. http://www.evarilos.eu/

• Eco2Clouds will investigate strategies that can ensure not only

effective application deployment on the cloud infrastructure but

also reduce the resultant energy consumption and CO2

emissions. http://eco2clouds.eu/

ecosystem which we refer to as “Social Telemedia”, a cross-

breeding of social networks and networked media.

23

FIRE STREP Projects (7)

• EAR-IT: Audio sensors are cheap and often easy to deploy

and, with the growing power of processing and networking

capabilities it is possible to exploit audio data for a broad range

of applications incl. energy efficiency and traffic monitoring.

• 3D-LIVE project aims to develop and experiment a User Driven

Mixed Reality and Immersive (Twilight) platform connected to

EXPERIMEDIA facilities in order to investigate the Future

Internet (FI) broadband capacity to support Real-Time

immersive situations as well as evaluating both the Quality of

Experience (QoE) and Quality of Services.

http://www.ami-communities.eu/wiki/3D-LIVE

24

FIRE STREP Projects (8)

• OFERTIE addresses an important emerging class of distributed

applications known as Real-Time Online Interactive

Applications (ROIA). These include multi-player online

computer games, advanced simulation-based e-Learning and

training platforms, and other applications dependent upon

synchronised bidirectional media distribution.

http://www.ofertie.eu

• CLOMMUNITY project aims at addressing the obstacles for

communities of citizens in bootstrapping, running and

expanding community-owned networks that provide community

services organised as community clouds.

25

Internet & Society project - Call 7 (started October 2011)

• FIRE related Internet & Society project

• EINS: European INternet Science is a Network of Excellence aiming

at developing Internet Science as a foundation for the understanding

and evolution of the Internet as a societal and a technological

artefact.
