HI all,

Sorry for the multiple postings and just to be sure if a reaction is needed on this.

 

As I announced, the deadline to propose networking sessions in the next FIA edition is closing on October 15. 

 

Last year we submitted one, we got a lot of "popular" support and then the organization proposed us to organize a pre-FIA workshop, which was not a good idea. Maybe more "lobby" at political level was needed.

The issue is that this year there is still the possibility to submit this kind of sessions. If we do not do it, FI-WARE/FI-LAB will not be visible in FIA.

 

Maybe we do not care, but then, what is your opinion on this? Do we want to make an attempt to be visible in "the reference" event on Future Internet for the Research (EC) community or not?

 

I have a review on Monday and Tuesday, and then, if we go for it we need to react ASAP unless another one wants to take the lead.

 

Thanks for your reactions,

 

Nuria de Lama

Dear Future Internet colleagues,

We are pleased to inform you that the 11th Future Internet Assembly (FIA Athens 2014) will take place from 18 to 20 March 2014 in Athens, Greece. 

The event will be held under the auspices of the forthcoming Greek Presidency of the European Union, co-organised and supported by the European Commission.

FIA Athens 2014 will focus on reshaping the Future Internet infrastructure for innovation. 

The FIA Steering Committee launches an open call to select up to 9 FIA working sessions within the scope of the conference, seeking proposals that cover aspects related to: 

*	The new Internet technological landscape based on network/cloud integration through Software Defined Networking (SDN),  Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), and innovative software and services that enable application innovation;
*	The contribution of  the EU National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) developments in the SDN/NFV domain; 
*	The role of SDN/NFV in i) building Internet applications of major impact (e.g., social networks, open data, big data analysis, etc.) with virtual services capabilities; ii) enabling  the reduction in resources used (energy efficiency, reduction of raw-materials, etc....); iii) fostering the emergence of open platforms to create downstream markets for third party developers;
*	The EU Public-Private-Partnerships (PPPs) and how they are positioned relative to these developments and relevant requirements towards demonstration and test-beds in Europe/globally.


In particular, the FIA Steering Committee is keen to receive proposals from industry experts, academia and research institutes such that proposed sessions will:

*	Contain new and forward-looking ideas; 
*	Feature a diverse array of presenters and experiences;
*	Introduce visionary ideas and practices which will inspire audience;
*	Promote cross cutting approaches and technologies to attract stakeholders and entrepreneurs;  
*	Deliver best practices & creative approaches towards research and technological innovations;
*	Stimulate and provoke discussion.


Single EU project working session proposals will be disregarded.

You can submit your working session proposals via a dedicated online system, following the template available at https://osqa.eurescom.eu <https://osqa.eurescom.eu/>   by Tuesday, 15th October 2013.


Best regards,

Bernard Barani  

On behalf of the FIA Steering Committee, Mario Campolargo, Director Net Futures, European Commission and Prof. Panayiotis Tsanakas, Chairman and CEO, GRNET
