User privacy on the Internet has become a pressing concern in recent years largely due to the revelations of large scale network surveillance programs. Research initiatives around future Internet architectures (FIAs) offer a unique opportunity to integrate privacy protection measures into the architecture of the network itself. In this paper, we survey the main design challenges of network laye...

Various coarse graining schemes have been proposed to speed up computer simulations of the motion within large biomolecules, which can contain hundreds of thousands of atoms. We point out here that there is a very natural way of doing this, using the rigid regions identified within a biomolecule as the coarse grain elements. Subsequently, computer resources can be concentrated on the flexible c...

From June 3-6, 2012, the Dagstuhl Seminar “Future Internet for eHealth” was held in Schloss Dagstuhl – Leibniz Center for Informatics. During this seminar, participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. The executive summary and abstracts of the talks given during the seminar are put together in this paper. Seminar 03.–06. June, 2012 – www.dags...

Future Internet network management systems are expected to incorporate self-x capabilities in order to tackle the increased management needs that cannot be addressed through human intervention. Towards this end, Self-NET developed a self-management framework based on the introduction of cognitive capabilities in network elements. In this paper, the experimentation platform for “Coverage and Cap...

Large research programs have been launched to address both the development of Future Internet architectures as well as suitable experimental facilities for testing. Recent research activities on experimental facilities try to share resources across organizational boundaries. This paper introduces an international cooperation effort on interconnecting network substrates of two Future Internet te...

Social tagging systems have established themselves as an important part in today’s web and have attracted the interest from our research community in a variety of investigations. The overall vision of our community is that simply through interactions with the system, i.e., through tagging and sharing of resources, users would contribute to building useful semantic structures as well as resource...

One of new trends in future Internet research is to focus on clean-slate design. Clean-slate design starts from clean-slate thinking and verifies its new idea using simulation stuffs. Then the idea can be extended to the real network testbed. In this paper, we focus on proposing new noble architecture called common code architecture. It minimizes the gap between initial implementation on the si...

This paper is a try to become familiar with strategic program, strategic management and studying various theoretic aspects and its performance. On the other hand, by studying Iran’s meteorology organization as a pioneering one, we investigated third and fourth advancement program of this organization, then the efficacy of common indexes in compiling strategic program of organization will be com...

The Internet of things can be defined as to make the “things” belong to the Internet. However, many wonder if the current Internet can support such a challenge. For this and other reasons, hundreds of worldwide initiatives to redesign the Internet are underway. This article discusses the perspectives, challenges and opportunities behind a future Internet that fully supports the “things”, as wel...
