To date implementations of Internet of Things architectures are confined to particular application areas and tailored to meet only the limited requirements of their narrow applications. The ICT workprogramme highlights the importance of interoperability between the silo solutions and different technologies used in these disjointed sectors. Sensors/objects that provide information or perform as act ...

Self Orchestrating CommunIty ambiEnT IntelligEnce Spaces (SOCIETIES)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

Pervasive systems aim to seamlessly and unobtrusively enable individual users to interact with devices, networks and services in their vicinity. Until now their focus has been on the individual rather than on communities of users. This neglects an important part of human behaviour; socialising, and might partly explain the slow take-up of pervasiveness in commercial products. Social computing, on ...

Wireless Hybrid Enhanced Mobile Radio Estimators - Phase 2 (WHERE2)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

The availability of position information plays an increasing role in wireless communications networks already today and will be an integral part of future systems. They inherently can offer the ability for stand-alone positioning especially in situations where conventional satellite based positioning systems such as GPS fail (e.g., indoor). In this framework, positioning information is an importan ...

MultimEDia transport for mobIlE Video AppLications (MEDIEVAL)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

Video is a major challenge for the future Internet. This traffic type is foreseen to account for close to 90 percent of consumer traffic already by 2012. However, the current Internet, and in particular the mobile Internet, was not designed with video requirements in mind and, as a consequence, its architecture is very inefficient when handling video traffic. It is the vision of this consortium th ...

The promise of a truly mobile experience is to have the freedom to roam around anywhere and not be bound to a single location. However, the energy required to keep mobile devices connected to the network over extended periods of time quickly dissipates. In fact, the operational time, has been identified as the number one criteria by the majority of the consumers purchasing a mobile device. Moreove ...

4WARD - Architecture and Design for the Future Internet (4WARD)

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

Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimize and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Inter ...
