11 FIRE Projects – Call 5 (started mid- 2010) Facility Projects BonFIRE: Building service testbeds for Future Internet Research and Experimentation CREW: Cognitive Radio Experimentation World OFELIA: OpenFlow in Europe – Linking Infrastructure and Applications Smart Santander: Environmental sensor network in the Spanish city of Santander TEFIS: Testbed for Future Internet Services

Building service testbeds for Future Internet Research and Experimentation Objectives: To build a multi site cloud facility to support applications, services and systems research, targeting the future Internet of Services To give researchers access to a facility which enables large scale experimentation of their systems and applications To evaluate the cross-cutting effects of converged service and network infrastructures BonFIRE 12

13 Cognitive Radio Experimentation World Objectives: To build an open federated platform for experimentally-driven research on advanced spectrum sensing, cognitive radio and cognitive networking strategies in view of horizontal and vertical spectrum sharing in licensed and unlicensed bands The CREW facility will incorporate 4 individual wireless testbeds incorporating diverse wireless technologies (heterogeneous ISM, heterogeneous licensed, cellular, wireless sensor) augmented with state-of- the-art cognitive sensing platforms CREW

14 OpenFlow in Europe - Linking Infrastructure and Applications Objectives: To create a unique experimental facility that allows researchers to not only experiment on a test network but to control the network itself precisely and dynamically The OFELIA facility is based on OpenFlow, a currently emerging networking technology that allows to virtualize and control the network environment through secure and standardized interfaces OFELIA More

15 Smart Santander Objectives: To build a unique-in-the- world city-scale experimental research facility in support of typical applications and services for a Smart City More than 20,000 sensors based on a real life Internet of Things deployment in an urban setting

16 Objectives: To build a multi site cloud open platform able to integrate existing and next generation testing and experimental facilities To develop a connector model that enables facilities to be accessed and used in a unified manner using Web services The TEFIS platform integrates 7 complementary experimental facilities, including network and software testing facilities, and user-oriented living labs Testbed for Future Internet Services TEFIS

BonFIRE is open for experiments that pose state-of-the-art research challenges in Cloud Computing. For example: Dynamic Service Landscape Orchestration for an Internet of Services QoS-Oriented Service Engineering for Federated Clouds Elasticity Requirement for Cloud Based Applications Use Cases of new FIRE facilities (1a) OFELIA has 5 testbeds across Europe that create a distributed OpenFlow infrastructure of multi-layer and multi-technology. The experimental facility will offer access to diverse technologies, including Ethernet, optical and wireless domains. The islands are connected by multiple 1GE links to the GEANT network. CREW has 4 wireless testbeds across Europe, with advanced spectrum sensing solutions. These can be combined to allow industry and academia to evaluate wireless protocols and/or hardware in a controlled environment. 17

SmartSantander has a unique city-scale experimental research facility that supports typical sensor (IoT) applications and services for a smart city. TEFIS has a Web portal that provides a single access point to different testing and experimental facilities. Initially, the TEFIS platform integrates 7 complementary experimental facilities, including network and software testing facilities. An example of a typical Use Case is a large scale SOA application for a huge travel-business eCommerce platform accessible both from Websites and Web Services. “Use Cases” of new FIRE facilities (1b) 18

Status of International cooperation A Chinese partner in TEFIS, OneLab and MyFIRE’s consorsiums A Japanese partner in OneLab2 Regular links with Korea Participation in AsiaFI 2011 NanoDataCenter, Onelab2 and ResumeNet involve Australian Partners TEFIS and MyFIRE include a Brazilian Partner A Russian partner In MyFIRE An Indian partner In MyFIRE PanLab Project involves a Canadian partner OFELIA, ResumeNet And CONECT involve US Partners 20

International cooperation under way EU / US (GENI) cooperation Several common workshops were already organized; joint projects shall start soon. EU/Brazil cooperation A joint Call for Proposal has just closed –one project is about to start. Others Some actions have taken and are taking place with Canada, India, and Russia. 21

Cooperation with Japan FIRE STATION represented FIRE during the 3rd EU-Japan Symposium on Future Internet and New Generation Networks (NWGN) held in Tampere, Finland, on October An EU-Japan common call in the near future could be the way to follow up concretely. The interaction with CoreLab (PlanetLab) Japan is frequent and systematic for FIRE projects such as OneLab2. 22

Cooperation with China 23 China is already a key player in the area of Internet with a strong emphasis on testbeds. The most developed groups seem to be located in Beijing and Shanghai. TEFIS has a Chinese partner: The Shanghai Development Center of Computer Software Technology. FIRE STATION’s interactions with China’s take the form of discussions with contacts in the Networking Research field, participation in conferences and events.

Cooperation with Korea FIRE Projects OneLab is working with PlanetLab Korea through PlanetLab Europe (PlanetLab Korea is federated with PlanetLab Europe). FIRE STATION FIRE STATION represented FIRE during the last KOREN workshop. It was another opportunity to demonstrate the visibility and importance of FIRE, and make contacts for potential future cooperation. 24 More with the AsiaFI Community? For discussion today!

27 FIRE Projects – Open Calls An “Open Calls Information Day” was organized on 9 February 2011 in Brussels for three FIRE experimental facilities: BonFIRE, OFELIA and TEFIS. These Open Calls are designed to stimulate the use of the facilities of each of these facilities through new innovative experiments. The Open calls were a real success: -71 proposals submitted (about 10 will be retained) ; -A total amount of 16 million euros (requested funding: 11.8 million euros); -Most of the proposals demonstrated technically brilliant ideas with a real added value for the FIRE facilities. More info at: Next Open Calls Information Day: 14 September 2011 in Brussels (for CREW, SmartSantander and OpenLab) Open to international cooperation!

28 New EU initiative: “Future Internet PPP” To answer FI challenges, the European Commission has launched the Future Internet Public-Private Partnership Programme (FI-PPP). The main goal is to advance a shared vision for harmonised European-scale technology platforms and their implementation, as well as the integration and harmonisation of the relevant policy, legal, political and regulatory frameworks.
