Both the architecture and the engineering processes of the Internet no longer suitable We want to bring innovation back into the network Some technical issues to deal with: • Can we cope with the massive number of communicating things? • Separation of naming and addressing • Integrated support for Mobility, QoS, Security • A generic multi-link path abstraction • Self-* mgmt Policy and governance … A holistic global approach 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 3 The 4WARD Tenets Tenet 1: Let 1000 Networks Bloom Tenet 2: Let Networks Manage Themselves Tenet 3: Let a Network Path Be an Active Unit Tenet 4: Let Networks Be InformationCentric 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 4 Technical Objectives 1. To create a new "network of information" paradigm where information objects have their own identity and are no longer bound to specific hosts. 2. To develop a concept of functionally rich communication paths, increasing the capacity and dependability of networks composed of mixed technologies (wired and wireless) and supporting applications that require more than today's point-to-point dissemination pattern. These communication paths will be able to take into account mobility, security and QoS requirements. 3. Devise an embedded "default-on" management capability which is an inseparable part of the network itself. This capability will generate extra value in terms of guaranteed performance in a cost effective way, and will enable the networks to adjust themselves to different sizes, configurations and external conditions. 4. To provide means to support the instantiation and dependable interoperation of different networks on a single infrastructure in a commercial setting. 5. Develop an integrated framework to represent, design, implement and operate network architectures that all belong to a common family of interoperable network instances. 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 5 Results Architecture • General Arch & Framework D2.3) • Dynamic secure sharing of resources in virtual networks including scalable provisioning and management system (D3.2) • Architecture of InNetwork Management system (D4.3) • Generic communications path architecture (D5.1) using coding, multi-path (D5.2) and mobility support (D5.3) • Architecture for Networking of information objects (D6.2) Evaluation and demos • Evaluation of the Architecture Framework (D2.3- T2-4) • Evaluation of Dynamic secure sharing of resources in virtual networks including scalable provisioning and management system (D3.2) • Demonstrator (D4.4), and evaluation (D4.5) of Innetwork mgmt • Evaluation in proof-ofconcept test-bed (D5.3 – T5.6) • Evaluation of Netinfo arch for scenarios such as content distribution (D6.2 – T6.5) 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 6 Collaboration opportunities So far identified: • E-mobility CA: Collaboration to create a Future Internet Forum • PSIRP: A publish-subscribe infrastructure is likely a well suited foundation for a network of information - it should be investigated how these approaches can made optimally fit • SENSEI: Sensei investigates sensor networking – 4WARD could analyse their applications in a cleanslate Future Internet infrastructure Open for collaboration and potentially others: • EPIFSANS, EuroNF, Trilogy, E3, … will be investigated 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 7 Cluster Participation Future Internet Technologies • Contact: Henrik Abramowicz, Norbert Niebert, Lars Lundgren 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 8 Backup 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 9 Geographical distribution Ericsson KTH SICS Ericsson Nokia-Siemens-Networks VTT Alcatel-Lucent Deutsche Telecom Ericsson Nokia-Siemens-Networks Tu Berlin Univ. of Bremen Univ. of Karlsruhe UNiv. of Paderborn Canada NEC Univ. of Lancaster Univ. of Surrey Finland Sweden Norway Ericsson Telekomunikacja Polska WIT Ireland UK Alcatel-Lucent France Telecom GET-INT LIP6 IST-TUL PTIN Germany Austria Poland Romania Siemens TPUCN France Switzerland Italia Technion Portu gal Spain Univ. of Basel Israel Telcom Italia US Robotiker-Tecnalia Telefonica Rutgers university 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 10 Organisation Structure General Assembly Board Reporting Control/ Delegation PMT Project Management WP Leaders Project Manager Technical Manager Admin Controller POET Project Overall Engineering Team Technical Work -Packages WP1 Tasks WP2 Tasks WP3 Tasks WP4 Tasks WP5 Tasks WP6 Tasks Legend Review/ Recommendation 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 11 Some project data WP6 NetInf WP1 BIRD WP4 InNet Mgmt WP2 New APC WP5 Formux WP3 Virtualisation WP0 Project Management Size : Roughly 30 m€ ~ 45 m USD Time 2 years 4WARD General Presentation 2008-02-29 12
