PIMTAS - Portable Internet Mobile Telecommunication ApplicationS Trata-se de um project financiado pela Portugal Telecom - Inovação, no qual se pretende criar aplicações para dispositivos moveis que realcem as capacidades tecnológicas da rede, numa perspectiva do utilizador. Neste projecto é dado um especial ênfase às necessidades da rede e à criação de soluções inovadoras que integrem conceitos avançados suportados pela rede (ex. Aplicações Sensíveis a Contexto, Aplicações S Read More...

This 7th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development Specific Targeted Research Projects has the main goal of evolving the mobile Internet architecture for efficient video traffic support. In the near future, it is expected that video traffic will represent the majority of traffic in the near future, requiring that the underlying infrastructure supports the requirements of this kind of traffic, as well as featuring enhancements on all layers of the protocol stack.

Neste trabalho, propõe-se aliar o mundo das telecomunicações ao mundo das redes sociais. Este trabalho pretende definir e desenvolver uma aplicação social context-aware para redes convergentes que possibilite a distribuição de User Generat Read More...

Hardware and network architectures change faster than can be sufficiently addressed by programming models – accordingly, programming models are subject to a 3-5 years’ change. In order to achieve long-term sustainability, not only a more “consistent” approach is required, but also a significant simplification of the model itself to reach a broader user community: current models are restricted to a few thousand experts worldwide, but with the increasing uptake of multi-core and cluste Read More...

The AMazING (Advanced Mobile wIreless Network playGround) consists of a free access wireless tested, composed by 24 fixed nodes located at IT Aveiro rooftop. At the core of the testbed, there are the support servers and redundant storage. OMF and OML are used as the basis for management and experiment execution. As an outcome, the project aims at providing a free and easily usable testbed for wireless experimentation, and to improve existing experimentation tools. Read More...
