The European Future Internet Assembly is a collaboration
between projects that have recognized the need to strengthen European
activities on the Future Internet to maintain European competitiveness in the
global marketplace. Currently FIA brings together around 150 research projects
that are part of Challenge 1 of the ICT programme of FP7 and are advancing the
state of the art in their respective thematic areas.
FIA supports open
interactions and cross-fertilization across technical domains, hence it is open
to all researchers engaged in Future Internet research (be they at EU or not)
to contribute and participate towards FIA’s goals. The first FIA was held in
Bled, Slovenia in May 2008, and reaches its 11th edition this year, in FIA
Athens 2014.
The 11th FIA in Athens will focus on reshaping the Future
Internet infrastructure for innovation, and more specifically on the
formulation of the new Internet technological landscape based on network/cloud
integration & virtualisation SDN/NFV and innovative software, services and
cloud technologies that enable application innovation.
Vincent Dollet from Appear Networks and Vladimir Bataev from
EsperantoXL will be supporting MobiCloud's presence at the event demonstrating
the technology and participating in some of the workshops. Attendees will have
the opportunity to discuss the technology behind the project and see some of
the resulting enterprise mobility applications.
FIA Athens 2014 features several parallel events, such as
working sessions, project demonstrations, FIF, FI-PPP, session/demo/project
contests etc.
If you are planning to attend and would like to meet up then
