Security for smart Electricity GRIDs (Segrid)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

SEGRID’s main objective is to enhance the protection of smart grids against cyber-attacks. We do this by applying a risk management analysis approach to a number of smart grid use cases (the SEGRID use cases), which will define security requirements and determine gaps in current security technologies, standards and regulations. The identified gaps and the analysis itself will give input to the enh ...

Unifying Cloud and Carrier Networks (UNIFY)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

Telecom providers struggle with low service flexibility, increasing complexity and related costs. Although cloud computing and networking have been two very active fields of research, there is currently little integration between the vast networking assets and data centres of telecom providers. UNIFY addresses this by considering the entire network, from home networks up to data centre, as a "unif ...

A Community networking Cloud in a box (CLOMMUNITY)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Community networking (also known as bottom-up networking) is an emerging model for the Future Internet across Europe and beyond where communities of citizens can build, operate and own open IP-based networks, a key infrastructure for individual and collective digital participation. The CLOMMUNITY project aims at addressing the obstacles for communities of citizens in bootstrapping, running and exp ...

Evaluation of RF-based Indoor Localization Solutions for the Future Internet (EVARILOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

The EVARILOS project addresses one of the major problems of indoor localization research: The pitfall to reproduce research results in real life scenarios suffering from uncontrolled RF interference and the weakness of numerous published solutions being evaluated under individual, not comparable and not repeatable conditions.Accurate and robust indoor localization is a key enabler for context-awar ...

Research by Experimentation for Dependability on the Internet of Things (RELYonIT)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

By embracing vast quantities of wireless sensors and actuators, the Future Internet will reach into the real world and provide online access to the state of things and places. The resulting Internet of Things (IoT) is deemed to enable applications of utmost societal value including smart cities, smart grids, and smart healthcare. However, most of these applications pose strict dependability requir ...

LIving with Robots and intEractive Companions (LIREC)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

LIREC aims to establish a multi-faceted (memory, emotions, cognition, communication, learning, etc.) theory of artificial long-term companions, embody it in robust and innovative technology, verify the theory and technology experimentally in real social environments, and provide resulting guidelines for designing such companions. Whether as robots, social toys or graphical and mobile synthetic cha ...

Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks (GINSENG)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

Research on wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is at an early stage and, to date, practical experience with deployment has been very limited. The focus of past research has been on fundamental design issues, especially on optimizing the use of scarce energy resources in battery-powered devices. Published studies show relative comparisons between alternative approaches, but there has been a dearth of ...

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 ...

Monitoring and Measurement in the Next Generation Technologies (MOMENT)

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

Reaching optimising control, management and flexibility of the future network infrastructures requires actions to retrieve a good understanding of network and application behaviour. In previous EU-funded FP6 projects like EVERGROW and LOBSTER, large efforts have been taken to successfully develop and deploy measurement infrastructures (e.g. ETOMIC, DIMES) to gain insight into the operational netwo ...
