Application Domains

In the last year the main application domain of the project remained Telecommunications. Within this domain, we consider applications that follow the needs and interests of our industrial partners, in particular Orange Labs or Alcatel-Lucent Bell-Labs, but also SMEs like 3-Roam and Avisto .

Mascotte is mainly interested in the design and management of heterogeneous networks. The project has kept working on the design of backbone networks (optical networks, radio networks, IP networks).

The project has also been working on routing algorithms such as dynamic and compact routing schemes in the context of the FP7 EULER leaded by Alcatel-Lucent Bell-Labs (Belgium). It also studied the evolution of the routing in case of any kind of topological modifications (maintenance operations, failures, capacity variations, etc.). Finally, an emphasis is done on green networks with low power consumption. This work is in collaboration with Orange Labs and the SME 3-Roam and partly supported by the ANR DIMAGREEN.
