Open ContEnt Aware Networks (OCEAN)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

OCEAN will design a new open content delivery framework that optimizes the overall quality of experience to end-users by caching content closer to the user than traditional CDNs do and by deploying network-controlled, scalable and adaptive content delivery techniques. The OCEAN architecture will clearly define light-weight signalling protocols and public interfaces between its major building block ...

Holistic and sustainable abatement of noise by optimized combinations of natural and artificial means (HOSANNA)

Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"Noise pollution is a major environmental problem within the EU. The social costs of traffic noise have been estimated to 0.4% of total GDP. Road traffic is the dominant source, and also rail traffic noise is significant. At the same time, road and rail traffic are expected to steadily increase, and the source strength is not expected to significantly decrease within the near future. To reduce the ...

Optical Access Seamless Evolution (OASE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

Consumer bandwidth is showing no signs of slowing down and operators are now forced to explore access network migration strategies that will satisfy the anticipated bandwidth demands for the next decade. However, evolving today's access networks towards NG-OA architectures will require a multi-billion euro investment. Consequently, an important strategic aspect is the need for a thorough techno-ec ...

Scalable, Tunable and Resilient Optical Networks Guaranteeing Extremely-high Speed Transport (STRONGEST)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

Internet traffic has been growing quickly for many years, despite adverse economic conditions and this growth will continue in the future. To cope with this evolution, the cost of today's network solutions is still too high.In addition, in line with the EC goal of reducing the overall emissions, energy efficiency should be widely improved, using whenever possible optics instead of electronics wher ...

Sound Exposure and Risk Assessment of Wireless Network Devices (SEAWIND)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

Public exposure to electromagnetic fields in the radio frequency spectrum has increased dramatically in the last two decades. Although research has mainly focused on the exposure and health risk evaluations of cellular networks and mobile phones in recent years, studies on the effects of the pervasive and prolonged EMF exposure on human health due to the exponential growth of wireless network devi ...

Experimental COgnitive Distributed Engine (ECODE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

The aim of the ECODE proposal is to develop, implement and validate experimentally a cognitive routing system. This system will use cognitive techniques to provide a routing system able to meet the future Internet challenges. The project gathers networking and machine learning experts to address these challenges efficiently. In architectural phase one, the cognitive routing system is designed and ...

Intelligent distribution of demanding services and applications to mobile thin client devices (MobiThin)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

Thin client solutions (i.e. processing delegated primarily to a remote server) have been extremely successful in wired LAN settings, because of cost reductions, inherent data security and privacy, more efficient use of resources, and ubiquitous data and service access.Despite the successes in the wired scenario, solutions able to also perform well in a wireless wide area network, still do not exis ...
