[cid:image004.png at 01CC31BF.1235C4D0]FIA ROADMAPPING
The Future Internet Research Roadmapping Working Group met in Brussels on 3-4 May to discuss progress with the Research Roadmap and to identify areas of consensus and common themes. The themes that emerged, and which are described in detail in version 1.0 of the roadmap (available for download here<http://fisa.future-internet.eu/index.php/FIA_Roadmap_Download_Page>) are summarised below.
Research priorities
* Building the Future Internet (research about foundational and enabling technologies):
1. Beyond converged infrastructure – the Internet infrastructure beyond 2020 brings new capabilities and capacities
2. Networked data – exploiting the Internet’s natural resource
3. Internet Security - maintaining the security of the Internet and its users online
· Using the Future Internet (research that will transform what we do and how we do it):
4. Networked interaction – people interacting with each other, with information, and with cyber-physical worlds
5. Networked augmentation – from an Internet of things to an Internet doing things
6. Networked innovation –the Internet as an innovation ecosystem, supported by architecture, policy, and invention.
Version 1.0 of the research document contains an executive summary, which elaborates the results of our analysis. This version of the roadmap was presented by Nick Wainwright to the Future Internet community at the FIA Conference in Budapest (16-20 May 2011). The research roadmap is being further developed and refined and will be presented for discussion at the next FIA Conference in Poznan.

a) There was a strong interest of most participants on the FIArch group work and they would like to actively participate to the group
b) A number of very interesting and diversing opinions on the FI Design Principles have been contributed , presented and discussed/debated in the workshop.
c) The next step for FIArch group will be to analyse them from a technical and socio-economic point of view and decide on the most important ones, which received the maximum consensus.
d) A schedule for the FI Design Principles white paper has been drafted.
The next milestone for the group will be to draft the version to be presented in FIA Poznan and to collect feedback/comments, which will lead to the final version of the white paper in November.
PARADISO open consultation
The main objective of the PARADISO2 FP7 (FIRE) project is to reach a better understanding of the possible and probable interactions between Internet and societal developments in the next decades, from which recommendations on innovative research areas to explore today can be derived. The main findings are detailed in successive versions of the so-called “PARADISO reference document”. The last version of this document, suggesting in particular to “explore the Internet at its limits” has been made available on the PARADISO web site<http://www.paradiso-fp7.eu/> and is proposed to public consultation until June 30, 2011. Inputs from the FIA community are expected!
The IOT International Forum
IoT-I, CASAGRAS2, CATR and Wuxi SensingNet are pleased to announce the launch of The IoT International Forum, with the support of the European Commission.
The IoT International Forum is a one-stop shop for actors to come together from both the global IoT community and from domains which could benefit from Internet of Things. The exchange of ideas and viewpoints will identify strategic directions for IoT, the related markets and business opportunities, societal impacts and benefits, and the legal and regulatory framework to enable this in a responsible manner.
By fostering a culture of discussion and collaboration, The IoT International Forum will aim to produce outputs representing the views of its membership and participants which will influence standards and regulatory bodies, funding bodies, and the wider IoT related domains, as well as informing and educating its own membership.
The Forum will be a not for profit organisation, open to all actors, and the initial events will feature free registration. There will be an open Forum information and planning meeting on 6th June 2011, as part of “IoT Week” in Barcelona<http://www.iot-week.eu/>. The first full Forum event will take place in Berlin 22nd/23rd of November 2011, with details to be released in the summer.

FIRE Research Workshop ( Budapest)
Presentations from the FIRE Research workshop in Budapest (16 May) are now available here<http://www.ict-fire.eu/events/fire-research-workshop.html>.
Future Internet Award
An Internet-of-Things initiative entitled SmartSantander<http://www.smartsantander.eu/> has been announced as the winner of the second Future Internet Award.
Prof. Robert Szabo from the Award’s Judging Panel made the announcement during the closing ceremony of Budapest’s Future Internet Assembly event<http://www.fi-budapest.eu/> on 19th May. Prof. Szabo, from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, said SmartSantander, “promotes smart services development” and provided exemplary work which “could be replicated in other countries.”
The SmartSantander initiative involves a city-wide experimental research facility to support applications and services for a “smart city”. This unique development will be flexible enough to engage with other experimental facilities. It will also stimulate new user applications, facilitate research on Internet-of-Things technologies and assess real-life users’ acceptability testing.
[cid:image008.jpg at 01CC31BF.1235C4D0]
Comprising more than 20,000 sensors, SmartSantander‘s core facility will be located in the city of Santander, the capital of the Cantabria region on Spain’s north coast.
The rich variety of partners involved in the SmartSantander initiative caught the particular attention of the Future Internet Award’s Judging Panel. One Judge said, “the consortium is a perfect example of inclusion of local entities, citizens, communities, cross-regional and/or cross-national involvement and contacts with industry.” Another said “there is a dialogue between cities, businesses, citizens, and ICT researchers and developers applying user-driven innovation methodologies.”
Research Council Workshop
ceFIMS has now hosted its first European-level workshop. The event took place in the beautiful surroundings of Gerbeaud House<http://www.gerbeaud.hu/en>, during Budapest’s Future Internet Week<http://www.fi-budapest.eu/>.
The majority of participants at the workshop were members of research councils and funding agencies from across 17 Member States. Also present were Future Internet Forum (FIF) <http://www.cefims.eu/fif/> Members and representatives from the INFINITY PPP project<http://www.fi-infinity.eu/portal>.
Click here for background information on this workshop<http://www.cefims.eu/workshops/research-council-workshop/>, including its official agenda.
On the day, workshop participants divided themselves into four groups of 8-10 persons to discuss a number of topics. The conclusions from each of these discussions were then presented to the workshop’s closing plenary session.
These conclusions will be included in the workshop report, which will be available shortly.

FIRE projects whitepaper<http://www.crew-project.eu/sites/default/files/Benchmarking%20computers%20and%20computer%20networks.pdf>
Benchmarking computers and computer networks - white paper Experts from FIRE projects, among others CREW, BonFIRE, Onelab2 and FIRESTATION has issued a white paper on benchmarking computer networks and computers.
With “benchmarking tools”, one usually refers to a program or set of programs, used to evaluate the performance of a solution under certain reference conditions, relative to the performance of another solution. Since the 1970s, benchmarking techniques have been used to measure the performance of computers and computer networks. Benchmarking of applications and virtual machines in an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) context is being researched in a BonFIRE experiment and the benchmarking of wired and wireless computer networks is put forward as a research topic in the research projects CREW and OneLab2.
The white paper elaborates on the interpretation of the term “benchmarking” in these projects, and answers why research on benchmarking is still relevant today. After presenting a high-level generic benchmarking architecture, the possibilities of benchmarking are illustrated through two examples: benchmarking cloud services and benchmarking cognitive radio solutions. You are invited to contribute and comment on the white paper via the contact(at)ict-fire.eu form or directly to the editor Stefan Bouckaert stefan.bouckaert(at)intec.ugent.be.
