OneLab2: an open federated laboratory supporting network research for the future Internet
The OneLab2 project provides an open federated laboratory, built on PlanetLab Europe, which supports network research for the future Internet. The OneLab2 Consortium consists of 26 distinguished networking research teams from university and industrial laboratories: 21 from the European Union, two from Switzerland, two from Israel, and one from Australia. A Large-Scale Integrating Project (IP) grant from the European Commission’s FP7 IST programme’s FIRE initiative funds 6.3 million euros of OneLab’s 8.9 million euro budget for 2008-2010
OneLab: An Open Networking Laboratory Supporting Communication Network Research Across Heterogeneous Environments
There are many testbeds available today to support research in communication networks and large scale distributed systems. However, these testbeds tend to be specific. Furthermore, network environments are becoming ever more heterogeneous. Emerging wireless technologies may soon make it common for data to cross multiple wireless hops while being routed in unconventional ways. The OneLab project will knit together the best of today’s networking testbeds, to provide a unified environment for the next generation of network experiments. OneLab will extend the highly successful and widely used PlanetLab infrastructure by enabling deployment of PlanetLab nodes in new wireless environments. Additionally, the capabilities of the PlanetLab platform will be extended in order to allow seamless controlled instantiation of new services, while improving its monitoring capabilities to take into account both networking and system performance issues. In the process, OneLab will create a European testbed administration, and will peer with PlanetLab, maintaining interoperability through a commonly defined set of interfaces. OneLab ran from September 2006 to August 2008, financed by a Specific Targeted Research Project (STREP) grant of 1.9 million euros and a total budget of 2.9 million euros for a consortium of ten partners

IPv4/IPv6 Transition towards the Next Generation Internet
Although the basic protocol of the Next-Generation Internet (NGI) was defined as IPv6 over 10 years ago, the transition from the current IPv4-based Internet to IPv6-based NGI is still a long way to go. With the growth of Internet, it is predicted that IANA will exhaust its IPv4 address pool on June 2011. Therefore, IPv6 networks and IPv6 applications are expected to be widely used in the coming days. However, IPv4 and IPv6 are difficult to inter-operate or even long-term coexist in the complex topology of Internet. After giving an overview of some basic IPv6 transition technologies in the literature, the talk will present the active work in IETF for IPv4/IPv6 coexistence. At last, the IPv6 progress in China will also be introduced

Cloud Computing e Next Generation Networks: Sfide ed opportunità per gli operatori TLC
La relazione ha presentato l'importanza del mercato dei servizi di tipo Cloud Computing per gli operatori di Telecomunicazioni e le opportunità che per essi possone derivare dall'entrata in tale mercato come fornitori di servizi, anche alla luce dell'evoluzione delle reti secondo il modello NGN
Utilizzo di tecniche di virtualizzazione per la creazione di infrastrutture di comunicazione virtuali on-demand
The use of virtualization techniques at variuos levels of a computing system, opens-up to on-demand creation of complex computating systems by gathering resources from a larger pool of shared resources. This approach, today widely used in modern datacenters, favours new scenarios, which are characterized by an efficient usage of the available hardware resources and reduced sensitivity to failures.
A similar approach has been recently proposed in the context of computer networks, and it is usually referred to as "network virtualization".
In the context of the SFINGI project, the Research Unit at Univ. of Napoli Federico II will carry on the following activities:
a) selection of the most suitable virtualization technologies to be used in Software Routers;
b) contribution to the definition of an architectural reference model, by including into this general model the possibility of adopting virtualization techniques for building Software Routers, and by taking into account the peculiar requirements deriving from the adoption of heterogenous (both wired and wireless) transmission technologies;
c) definition of service models for the creation of geographically distributed communication infrastructures based on "virtual" Software Routers, according to the Infrastructure-as-a-Service paradigm;
d) definition of potential use-case scenarios that may be implemented through "virtual" Software Routers
