Panel on Autonomic computing and communication testbeds
Wednesday 23, February, 2005, 16:40 - 18:00
Research testbeds are recognised as an important tool for experimentation with emerging network technologies: often building a testbed is the major source of inspiration and new knowledge. Networking research community, including IST FET and ACF promote research in the area of new paradigms for communication/networking systems that can be characterised as situated (i.e. reacting locally on environment and context changes), autonomously controlled, self-organising, radically distributed, technology independent and scale-free.
Are we ready for experiments with network autonomics?
