Projets en cours

> CAM4HOME, Collaborative Aggregated Multimedia for Digital Home 
The objective of the CAM4HOME project is to create a metadata-enabled content delivery framework to allow end-users and commercial content providers to create and deliver rich multimedia experiences. These experiences are based on a novel concept of collaborative aggregated multimedia that is the main focus of the CAM4HOME project. Collaborative aggregated multimedia (CAM) refers to aggregation and composition of individual multimedia contents into a content bundle that may include references to content-based services and can be delivered as a semantically coherent set of content and related services over various communication channels.

Projets en cours

> BUGYO BEYOND, Building security assurance in open infrastructures, beyond
The BUGYO project demonstrated use and feasibility of an infrastructure in order to gain confidence about security of Telco based services. BUGYO Beyond will go further by addressing advanced concepts and tools to adapt to evolving and ubiquitous Telco infrastructures. This extension will involve a multi-operator (fixed and mobile) and service providers. BUGYO Beyond will provide means:1) for enhancing BUGYO operational methodology/system, covering questions like self-developed metrics (in correlation with the normalisation and certification), patterns of metrics, patterns of evaluation, modelling aids (tools, guidelines...), 2) for comparing and exchanging assurance information between different operators including normalisation and standardisation of assurance measures and (aggregated) levels.3) take into account issues emerging from evolving and ubiquitous infrastructure and address them by dynamic model evolution and (semi-)automatic probe deployment

> B21, Broadcast for the 21^st Century
The B21C project (Broadcast for the 21^st Century) aims to constitute a task force, building on the works and reflections of the DVB Forum, with the goal to elaborate the technical propositions for the future of Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB). Goals of the project are 1) To contribute to the success of DVB-H network deployment world-wide, (by defining DVB-H optimum parameter settings for indoor/outdoor pedestrian reception), 2) To participate to the elaboration of hybrid satellite/terrestrial broadcast networks, sustaining the work of the DVB-SSP adhoc groups, thus insuring ubiquitous availability of DVB H services worldwide, 3) To constitute a Technical Task Force actively contributing to the work engaged by the DVB-T2 adhoc group related to the future of the European DVB Terrestrial transmission system.

> TIGER2, Togehter IP, GMPLS and Ethernet Reconsidered - II
TIGER2 is a continuation and an enrichment of the TIGER1 project. TIGER1, which ended in June 2008, has set the bases of an integrated network architecture, combining tightly and efficiently the IP, GMPLS and Ethernet technologies in metropolitan, carrier-class environments. The purpose of TIGER2 is to build on the outcomes (specifications, evaluations, partnerships) of TIGER1 and also to explore new horizons. TIGER2 will capitalize on the architectural and functional specifications, plus the benchmarking of the "TIGER solution" designed during the TIGER1 project. For this reason, TIGER2 is undeniably a continuation of TIGER1 but also a project that explores new networking issues.
