Presentation of the team

The DIANA team conducts research in the domain of networking, with an emphasis on designing, implementing, and analysis of new network architecture with a special focus on Internet users rights. The main objective of the team is to propose and study new architectures, services and protocols that will enable service transparency and better control on user data in the context of hundred billions mobile connected devices. The main research directions are :

• Internet citizen rights observatory

• Open Network architecture

We envision that mobile devices will become the primary Internet access for most users and foresee a convergence between desktops, laptops and those mobile devices. In the DIANA team, we focus our research effort taking into account this new and disruptive context where the main usage is accessing contents and services rather than connecting to well defined hosts.
