WWI Cross Issue Validation

This document is the final report describing the activities carried by the Cross Issue Validation (CIV) in the framework of the second phase of Wireless World Initiative (WWI) projects. The Cross Issue Validation is a cross-project working group, dedicated to demos and trials of WWI projects (Ambient Networks, WINNER, E2R, SPICE, MOBILIFE). The CIV main goal is to bring a general and synthetic view on WWI validation activities. The CI Validation team is composed of key representatives of validation work package, plus one CIV leader. Cross Issue Validation missions are three fold: • Sharing of information related to validation activities in the projects • Analyzing and creating a global view of WWI demos • Dissemination of CIV results. This deliverable presents all the results and achievements of CIV. Chapters 2 and 3 give a description of the major demos/trials of each WWI project. Within the Cross Issue Validation team, we defined a common set of criteria that we then use to fully describe the demos/trials. These common cirteria facilitate information sharing between the projects, and enable people unused to a given project to better understand the goal and means of a demo. Based on this better knowledge of WWI projects demos, we defined transversal approches to highlight relationships between demos/trials of the different WWI projects. These cross analyses aim at expressing the links, similarities and complementarities between the demos/trials, and are presented in chapter 4. This leads to the elaboration of a global scenario, presented in chapter 5. This global story line includes all WWI projects and highlights their specificities and complementarities towards an integrated end-to-end B3G architecture. In the global scenario,you can find in parallel: • a simple everyday life story • technical references to WWI concepts and demos. Anyone, whatever his age or interest in technology, will be interested by services presented in the everyday life story; there are every day use cases. Whereas technophile people will also be interested to see what are the concepts/demos underpinning these new services and their tight integration. This global scenario provides a good overview on WWI projects concepts and demos, and show how they can fit together for B3G system. Dissemination is a key mission for the transversal group that is cross issue validation. All dissemination activities led by CIV are presented and illustrated in chapter 6: • conferences participation: IST Summit, WWI Innovation Day, etc, with demo opening, poster presentation, demos presentation • paper submitted to a European conference • article written by journalists based on CIV leader interview • internal WWI presentations We conclude with an assessment of transversal CIV activities and propose directions for future works in projects' demos.
