PLAY
  • Title: Pushing dynamic and ubiquitous interaction between services Leveraged in the future Internet by ApplYing complex event processing

  • Type: COOPERATION

  • Defi: Internet of Services, Software & Virtualisation

  • Instrument: Specific Targeted Research Project

  • Objectif: Internet of Services, Software and Virtualisation

  • Duration: October 2010 - September 2013

  • Coordinator: FZI (Germany)

  • Other Partners: EBM WebSourcing (Fr), Inria (OASIS and SARDES) (Fr), France Telecom/OrangeLabs (Fr), ICCS (Gr), Ecole des Mines Albi/Armines (Fr), CIM (Serbia).

  • Inria contact: Françoise Baude

  • See also: http://www.play-project.eu/

  • Abstract: The PLAY project aims to develop and validate an elastic and reliable architecture for dynamic and complex, event-driven interaction in large highly distributed and heterogeneous service systems. Such an architecture enables ubiquitous exchange of information between heterogeneous services, providing the possibilities to adapt and personalize their execution, resulting in the so-called situational-driven process adaptivity. The OASIS team is in charge of designing the key element of the PLAY Platform: the Event Cloud that is a publish/subscribe P2P based system, developed using the GCM technology.

FI-WARE
  • Type: COOPERATION

  • Defi: PPP FI: Technology Foundation: Future Internet Core Platform

  • Instrument: Integrated Project

  • Objectif: PPP FI: Technology Foundation:Future Internet Core Platform

  • Duration: September 2011 - May 2014

  • Coordinator: Telefonica (Spain)

  • Others partners: Thales, SAP, Inria

  • Inria contact: Olivier Festor

  • See also: http://www.fi-ware.eu/

  • Abstract: FI-WARE will deliver a novel service infrastructure, building upon elements (called Generic Enablers) which offer reusable and commonly shared functions making it easier to develop Future Internet Applications in multiple sectors. This infrastructure will bring significant and quantifiable improvements in the performance, reliability, and production costs linked to Internet applications, building a true foundation for the future Internet.

DC4Cities
  • Type: COOPERATION

  • Defi: FP7 Smartcities 2013

  • Instrument: Specific Targeted REsearch Project

  • Objectif: ICT-2013.6.2: Data Centers in an energy-efficientand environmentally friendly Internet

  • Duration: September 2013 - February 2016

  • Coordinator: Freemind Consulting (BE)

  • Partners: U. Mannheim (DE), U. Passau (DE), HP Italy Innovation Center (IT), Create-Net (IT), ENEA (IT), CESCA Catalunia (ES), Gas Natural SA (ES), Inst. Munic. Informatica Barcelona (ES), Inria (FR)

  • Inria contact: Eric Madelaine

  • Abstract: Data centres play two different and complementary roles in Smart Cities’ energy policies: as ICT infrastructures supporting Smart City resource optimization systems - more in general, delivering ICT services to the citizens - and as large energy consumers. Therefore there are huge expectations on data centres being able to run at the highest levels of renewable energy sources: this is the great challenge of DC4Cities project.

    The goal of DC4Cities is to make existing and new data centres energy adaptive, without requiring any modification to the logistics, and without impacting the quality of the services provided to their users. Finally new energy metrics, benchmarks, and measurement methodologies will be developed and proposed for the definition of new related standards. DC4Cities will promote the data centres role as an “eco-friendly” key player in the Smart Cities energy policies, and will foster the integration of a network of local renewable energy providers (also interconnected with local Smart Grids and Micro Grids) to support the pursued increase of renewable energy share.

Collaborations in European Programs, except FP7

  • Program: EIT ICTLabs

  • Project acronym: Activity 13 052 from Intelligent Mobility and Transportation Systems action line (IMS), renamed Future Urban Life and Mobility (ULM) mid 2013

  • Project title: Multimodal Mobility

  • Duration: 2013, January to December

  • Coordinator: F. Baude and B. Kwella (Fraunhofer Gesellschaft)

  • Other partners: Inria, BME (Hungary), TUBerlin, U. Bologna, Telecom Italia, Siemens/VMZ (Germany), DFKI (Germany)

  • Abstract: The activity seeks to specify the building blocks, a platform and a prototype for the provision of multimodal mobility. The main motivation is to facilitate the use of ICT to support the efficient organization of Accessible Mobility (support for people with special needs, economical optimization of mobility and transportation, trip planning, information on available transport modes, etc). It therefore provides the basis for sustainable future mobility
