What is Future Internet? Need to rethink the fundamental assumptions and design decisions
underlying its current architecture Two principal ways in which to evolve or change a system
– Evolutionary approach (Incremental): a system is moved from one state to another with incremental patches
– Revolutionary approach (Clean-slate): the system is redesigned from scratch to offer improved abstractions and/or performance, while providing similar functionality based on new core principles
Future Internet?– Clean Slate design of the Internet’s architecture to satisfy the growing
demands
– Management issues of Future Internet also need to be considered from the stage of design
Research Goal for Future Internet– Performing research for Future Internet and designing new network
architectures
– Building an experimental facility

4WARD’s Research Goal Overcomes current Internet architectural impasse through
a set of radical architectural approaches built on mobile and wireless background
Improve ability to design interoperable and complementary families of network architecture
Enable the co-existence of multiple networks on common platforms
Enhance the utility of networks by making them self-managing
Increase robustness and efficiency of networks by leveraging diversity
Improve application support by a new information-centric paradigm
- 9 - DPNM
4WARD’s Strategic Objective By creating a family of dependable and interoperable
networks providing direct and ubiquitous access to information– Increase the competitiveness of the European networking industry– Improve the quality of life for European citizens
Goal– Make the development of networks and networked applications
faster and easier, leading to both more advanced and more affordable communication services
- 10 - DPNM
Key Issues Interoperability
– A mew approach to a multitude of networks– Create a framework for many networks to bloom as part of a
family of interoperable networks that can coexist and complement each other
Self-Management– Have a ‘default-on’ management entity, which is an inseparable
part of the network itself– Capable of adjusting itself to difference network sizes,
configurations, and external conditions Active Network Path
– Consider a path as an active part of the network that controls itself and provides customized transport services
Information-Centric– Build a network as a network of information and services where
services and information are mobile and distributed
- 11 - DPNM
Technical Approach (1) Combine
– Innovations needed to improve the operation of any single network architecture
– Multiple different and specialized network architecture
Work– On innovations overcoming the shortcomings of current communi
cation networks (Internet)– In a framework that allows the coexistence, interoperability, and c
omplementarity of several network architecture– In an integrated fashion, avoiding pitfalls like the current Internet’s
‘patch on a patch’ approach
- 12 - DPNM
Technical Approach (2) Structured into 6 work packages
– 3 packages: consider innovations for a single network architecture– 1 package: study the use of virtualization to allow multiple
networking architectures to coexist on the same infrastructure– 1 package: Look at the design and development of interoperable
architectures– 1 package: Ensure that all envisaged developments take proper
account of essential non-technical issues

WP1: BIRD Business Innovation, Regulation and Dissemination To understand and assess both how new technology may
foster new usages and business models as well as how new usages and societal trends may require new or enhanced technologies
To investigate implications of policy and governance on networking technologies (including regulation) and vice versa

WP4: INM In Network Management Evaluate and demonstrate the INM approach to embedded autonomic self-
management for selected scenarios Providing abstractions and a framework for a self-organizing management
plane Design and implement a thin pervasive self-organizing network management
plane – provide access to and communication between local self-management functions
embedded in the network – organize itself within a given network and adapts to dynamic changes of network
topology and structure Develop registration and access mechanisms for embedded self-descriptive
management functions provided by participating nodes within the management plane
Define a scheme, strategies, and protocols for collaborative monitoring, self-optimizing, and self-healing
Investigate search engine technologies for retrieval of information from an information base that is unstructured, incomplete, timed out and/or faulty
Apply the in-network management approach to virtual networks and a network of information investigated in WP3 and WP6
