> 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. *
