This deliverable describes different test-beds for the validation of the architecture, algorithms and protocols for the operator governed opportunistic networking as defined in the OneFIT Project. Further on, this deliverable provides a description of the implementation of the OneFIT cognitive management systems CSCI and CMON as well as the C4MS protocol. Also, implementation of the blocks supp...

The paper discusses a DVB/IP backhaul networking environment that enables users to access triple-play IP services at a guaranteed end-to-end QoS level. Utilising the DVB-T stream in a regenerative configuration, it presents the formation of a QoS aware backhaul that interconnects intermediate distribution nodes and service/content providers (e.g. ISPs, IPTV multicasters, etc.), for enabling alw...

Despite a growing desire to create smart homes, we know little about how networked technologies interact with a house’s infrastructure. In this paper, we begin to close this gap by presenting findings from a study that examined the relationship between home networking and the house itself—and the work that results for householders as a consequence of this interaction. We discuss four themes tha...

Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is a new wireless networking paradigm. Unlike traditional wireless networks, WMNs do not rely on any fixed infrastructure. Instead, hosts rely on each other to keep the network connected. Wireless internet service providers are choosing WMNs to offer Internet connectivity, as it allows a fast, easy and inexpensive network deployment. One main challenge in design of t...

This paper describes an experiment to prototype a new way of conducting science by applying networking and distributed computing technologies to an Earth Science application. A combination of satellite, wireless, and terrestrial networking provided geologists at a remote field site with interactive access to supercomputer facilities at two NASA centers, thus enabling them to validate and calibr...

This study aims to review the way of networking the technology sources and technology infrastructure. In the first section we reviewed the linkage between technology source and TTIs in terms of types, methods of linkage and their model. The second section described the future development model of TTIs, named technomart. The third section examines the technomart development in Taejon Metropolita...

The use of modern technology from non-standard sources allows IT centres to find temporary solutions for operational needs, for example to provide access quickly to a networking infrastructure for the local scientific community. This paper describes the experiences of GWDG with ADSL equipment. Although originally a consumer technology it can also be used in a scientific environment. Despite of ...

This document surveys the security issues that can affect the virtualized Named Data Networking architecture which proper deployment and management constitutes the main goal of the DOCTOR project. From the state of the art, we first describe the most critical attacks on the disruptive networking technologies used in the project, namely NDN to transport the data and SDN/NFV to build the virtual ...
