Virtualization is a key enabler of cloud computing that allows to run multiple virtual machines (VM) with their own software environment and applications on top of physical hardware with the promise to increase efficient usage of hardware resources at lower cost and increased elasticity. Typically VMs are created using provider-specific templates (so called VM images) that are stored in proprietar ...

Cloud computing is increasingly a necessary strategical ICT infrastructure component for European companies to successfully compete in the world-wide economy. The advantages of renting ICT infrastructures, platforms, and services, with easy access to scalability and elasticity, are driving an ever accelerating transfer toward the cloud of data and applications. Unfortunately, such a convenience co ...

Cloudopting (CloudOpting)

Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

Current situation\n\nThe Smart City concept and the idea of making an efficient use of the data generated by citizens in their daily activities have been around for almost a decade. In a middle-term view, cities were expected to turn into places where both everyday lives would be pretty much easier and connections between citizens much more useful.\n\nHowever, despite its potential, very few succe ...

Background In 1995, European citizens generated on average 474 kg of municipal waste. This amount rose to 542 kg per person in 2010, and a further increase to 680 kg per person is expected by 2020. The current trend corresponds to an increase of almost 15% in less than 20 years. In spite of efforts made during the past few years to improve waste managemen ...

Water Network Sensors for Widespread Use (WIDESENS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

Widesens aims to design and develop a prototype analytical drinking water probe and its complementary applications for in-pipe water quality measurement with ideal specifications for a wide deployment. These sensors will be based on microelectronic technologies (ISFET, IDEs and microelectrodes). As a first approach they will measure pH, conductivity, bio-fouling, oxidative reduction potential (ORP ...

Cloud Computing is an inevitable trend. In the near future almost every consumer electronics device will be connected to an ecosystem of third-party partners providing payment systems, streamed content, etc. However, a whole field of cloud services still lacks solutions because of security issues. Cloud operators and their end users (individuals, companies, etc.) do not always trust each other. As ...
