5GASP aims at shortening the idea-to-market process through the creation of a European testbed for SMEs that is fully automated and self-service, in order to foster rapid development and testing of new and innovative NetApps built using the 5G NFV based reference architecture. Building on top of existing physical infrastructures, 5GASP intends to focus on innovations related to the operation of experiments and tests across several domains, providing software support tools for Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) of VNFs in a secure & trusted environment for European SMEs capitalizing in the 5G market. 5GASP targets the creation of an Open Source Software (OSS) repository and of a VNF marketplace targeting SMEs with OSS examples and building blocks, as well as the incubation of a community of NetApp developers assisted with tools and services that can enable an early validation and/or certification of products and services for 5G. We focus on inter-domain use-cases, development of operational tools and procedures (supporting day-to-day testing and validation activities) and security/trust of 3rd party IPR running in our testbeds.

Workpackage 2, Cloud Seeding, is responsible for the cloud computing infrastructure of the project. It addresses the problems of data retrieval, storage, and infrastructure management.

The Apollo project aims to design, develop, and evaluate, a M2M management framework integrated in with the core of a major telecom provider. While keeping compliance to the ETSI M2M specifications, the framework incorporates many cloud concepts for the matter of scalability, aims to provide pluggable service enablers, and a comprises a service execution environment supporting complex workflows.

Open Charging as a Service (OCaaS) aims to support the configuration and execution of platform usage policies. OCaaS is a subset of a bigger project that delivers OSS services from a SaaS perspective for Telco providers.
Major features to be developed on this project are as follows:
* To gather and to process information about the resources consumed by a given set of Services or Services instances (e.g.: metrics for Service A include time meters while metrics for Service B records data… Exibir mais

Open Charging as a Service (OCaaS) aims to support the configuration and execution of platform usage policies. OCaaS is a subset of a bigger project that delivers OSS services from a SaaS perspective for Telco providers.
Major features to be developed on this project are as follows:
* To gather and to process information about the resources consumed by a given set of Services or Services instances (e.g.: metrics for Service A include time meters while metrics for Service B records data volume meters).
* Enforcement of usage management policies triggered by services usage, including the following examples:
- Auditing: based on an historic of every metric defined within the infrastructure, enabling Fraud Management and Revenue Assurance.
- Charging capabilities: ensure the applicability of Business Models on top of the information collected by the platform.

ATNoG have been actively involved in several Openstack subprojects (e.g., former Quantum). The continuous research efforts towards the development of Openstack as well as recent contributions on Ceilometer (i.e., a telemetry service for Cloud platforms such IaaS, PaaS and SaaS) are the main motivations to use Ceilometer as an isolated subcomponent within this project. Secondary contributions of this open-source project include the introduction of novel monitoring concepts, new agents (i.e., application-centric metric), generic and intelligent transformers.

In doing so, the project will propose the integration of Ceilometer with a Rules Engine instance. A JSON-LD API will be provided for allowing the interaction of other modules with the resulting integrated component. The two components together will be responsible for gathering and processing metric information and will trigger actions, thus ensuring the automatized application of a given set of rules (e.g., enforce a SLA).

The main focus of this project was to create mobile applications that had Context Awereness, Human-Mobile Interaction, User Experience and Privacy concerns. The project was financed by PT Inovação.

Project Context Casting (C-CAST) main objective is to evolve mobile multimedia multicasting to exploit the increasing integration of mobile devices with our everyday physical world and environment.

The strategic objective of C-MOBILE was to foster the evolution of the mobile broadcast business by providing enhancements to the 3GPP MBMS for systems beyond 3G.

It addressed both resource efficiency and service flexibility, by close coupling of broadcast and communication capabilities on all layers, covering the radio access, core network and the service enablers, across multiple technologies, providing a smooth migration for MBMS evolution, which was in line with the vision of a… Exibir mais

The strategic objective of C-MOBILE was to foster the evolution of the mobile broadcast business by providing enhancements to the 3GPP MBMS for systems beyond 3G.

It addressed both resource efficiency and service flexibility, by close coupling of broadcast and communication capabilities on all layers, covering the radio access, core network and the service enablers, across multiple technologies, providing a smooth migration for MBMS evolution, which was in line with the vision of a federated global multicast broadcast transport as well as emerging beyond 3G standards.

Within the radio access network it proposed new radio interface technologies, radio resource management and new topological approaches in the architecture for an efficient support of enhanced MBMS services allowing a commercially attractive implementation.

C-MOBILE helped to understand how best to organise and schedule MBMS content from the BM-SC through the core network, radio access, to the end users. Since this was multimedia content, interactions with the 3GPP IP Multimedia Subsystem were expected and C-MOBILE explicitly investigated how best MBMS can make use of capabilities provided by the IMS.

C-MOBILE researched, investigated and defined new ways to use multicast technology to support personalized services and in particular the concept of multicast content community where users also contribute to the multicast service.

Key market and business requirements for multicast-broadcast services were identified to aid defining research directions, leading to new business models involving the various players.

The project made important contributions to the standardisation bodies and to prove experimentally or via system level simulations innovative concepts. Exibir menos

PROSE will contribute to the adoption of open source software on ICT projects, by increasing the lifetime of the software developed inside European projects and thus maximizing impacts. This will be achieved through the creation of a coordination platform for hosting software projects, as well as promoting dissemination and training events on Open Source topics.

OpenSourceProjects.eu is a software forge dedicated to hosting Open Source projects created within EU research projects. This forge was created as part of the PROSE coordination action, with the main goal of promoting the dissemination of project results as Open Source software. Within this project hosting platform, EC projects can develop their software projects, and collaborate towards common goals.
