Mobility and pervasiveness

Security, trust, dependability

QoS for commercial video streaming applications and broadband services

Heterogeneity of devices and services/applications (e.g. RFIDs, sensors)

Complexity of network management

…

The original Internet design has successfully enabled multiple waves

of innovation! But…

Novel societal and commercial usages are pushing the original Internet architecture to its limits…

••• 3

Internet has become a critical infrastructure both from the social and economic perspectives.

This was impossible to foresee when its 30-years old architecture was defined.

Is there a need for a Future Internet?

These requirements may go beyond the capabilities of NGN architectures, currently envisaged by incumbent operators

Next: Expanding the concept & building

the facility

• expand to include service architectures

• support experimentation cutting across layers

• enable socio-economic impact assessment

• broaden involvement of large user communities

• support sustainability

• develop the facility in close cooperation with FIRE research projects

• Join forces in Europeand collaborateinternationally

Future Internet as a Complex System Cross-layer, multidisciplinary, system approach Need for testing on the experimental facility

Visionary research on Internet protocols, architectures and services

Open, bottom-up approach Not necessarily backward-compatible Multidisciplinary, allowing cross-fertilisation, e.g. bio-inspired

principles, evolutionary concepts, economic principles, …

Experimentally-driven research Not just paperwork: research, theories must be based on

testbeds and data-driven experiments

Allowing identification of potential evolutionary transition paths

••• 13

The Internet is evolving towards a mobile Internet

More radical Future Internet evolutions/re-designs will have complex societal and economic repercussions

Internet to be addressed as a complex system across layers – from connectivity to services

Need for a multidisciplinary research environment allowing large-scale experimentation to identify technical, societal and economic repercussions of changes to the current Internet

In European ICT Research the Future Internet is one of three federating research schemes

Internet is a global issue: international co-operation is a must
