Dear Nuria, all Thank you for the clarification. Since, as Yaron explains, this is just a continuation and we have already shown our support, I suppose we can continue it, unless there is any objection. I leave you the week end to reflect on the issue (Note: Unfortunately, last time was not very successful, let us hope this time it is :)) BR Jose De: fiware-pcc-bounces at lists.fi-ware.eu [mailto:fiware-pcc-bounces at lists.fi-ware.eu] En nombre de Nuria De-Lama Sanchez Enviado el: viernes, 14 de diciembre de 2012 10:58 Para: fiware-pcc Asunto: [Fiware-pcc] Letter of support for a Cloud proposal in Call10 Hi Pepe, all, Atos is currently working on a proposal for the topic 1.2 (Call10) that fits very much with the developments of FI-WARE in the Cloud chapter. The consortium, led by IBM, would like to get a letter of support for the proposal as a mutual support to extend what FI-WARE is doing. As you know, this does not express any formal commitment, but an interest and a willingness to collaborate, which we think is an added value for both initiatives. Do not ask me why this task came to me (being IBM the coordinator -as you can see, the recipient of the letter of support is Yaron- and taking into account that IBM is the leader of the Cloud chapter in FI-WARE). In any case it is like that and I would like to know if this could be signed on behalf of our project. I attach the LoS where you can find the reasons why this interest and potential collaboration is justified as well as the abstract of the proposal (see below). Pepe, let me know if this is possible and when so that I can confirm the situation to the coordinator. Proposal abstract CloudWave will introduce a second generation cloud software stack, enabling the development and delivery of adaptive cloud-scale services which dynamically adjust to changes in their environment so as to optimize quality of service and resource utilization. In doing so, CloudWave will advance the competitiveness of the EU economy by providing a powerful foundation for creating innovative, sustainable Future Internet services, realising the full promise of cloud computing. CloudWave will deliver (1) an open architecture and reference implementation of a new cloud software stack, extending current cloud technology with capabilities for intelligent adaptation of cloud services; and (2) an agile development environment, tools and methods for development of reliable cloud-scale services, based on the new stack. Scientifically, CloudWave will advance the state-of-art along three dimensions: * Execution Analytics: A new framework where specialized algorithms dynamically analyse cloud infrastructure and application behaviour, seamlessly integrate data pertaining to physical and virtual resources and IoT elements, and provide consolidated feedback to drive service evolution and adaptation * Coordinated Adaptation: A new software technology where cloud applications and cloud infrastructure collaboratively and automatically undertake complex adaptation actions, ensuring quality of service and effective utilization of ICT resources * Feedback-Driven Development: A new agile approach for developing cloud applications, where developers exploit execution analytics to incrementally determine and evolve application features, extensions and optimizations, based on observed user needs Using three industry case studies, we will demonstrate how the CloudWave architecture, where the above innovations play a key and novel role, supports emerging Future Internet services and provides high and quantifiable improvements in service delivery quality, productivity, reliability and cost.
