Large ScaleDemos
and trials
Our recommendations for the
programme
• Large scale projects• Integration will not happen in many small projects
• Flexibility in every stage• The future Internet is a hard target to follow
• Systematic approach to project selection• Projects must contribute to the programmme and uniquely address aspects
of the programme
• Facilitate open sharing of project foreground• IPR issues should not hinder collaboration
• Integrate sector competence with the ICT competence• The PPP target is to enhance all sectors with the Future Internet
• Lead by example: large scale trials and demos• Proving scalability and viability
• Synergy: build on existing results and resources• Time and scale dictate using what we have already achieved in Europe.
