- http://drogo.cselt.it/sonah/RAINBOW/
The basic objectives of the Radio Access INdependent Broadband
On Wireless (RAINBOW) Project are:
- to demonstrate the feasibility and evaluate the complexity of
a UMTS access infrastructure able to cope with different UMTS
innovative radio access techniques and representing at the same
time a solution for the migration from second generation mobile
system (GSM, DCS1800 and DECT) to UMTS,
- to contribute to the UMTS standardisation process within ETSI/SMG5,
ETSI/SMG3 and ITU,
- to study possible solutions for the integration of the UMTS
Radio Access System in the B-ISDN and IN context for both transport
(ATM based) and control procedures,
- to explore the impact of multimedia services and variable bit
rate techniques on the transport and control procedures of the
UMTS Radio Access System.
- http://www.cselt.it/Cselt/euresc/P614/welcome.html
The main objectives of this Project are to:
- define a small set of different access network architectures
and their enabling optical technologies giving B-ISDN/ATM access
to residential and business customers,
- explore feasibility and technology maturity for broadband radio
based access network systems,
- identify key cost elements for the different architectures and
estimate their impact,
- analyse techno-economical consequences of different network
upgrade scenarios in a deregulated market with several service
providers over different parts of the public network
- evaluate from a techno-economic point of view the identified
access network architectures towards an end-to-end optimisation
of the telecommunication network,
- identify economically viable implementation strategies for an
effective B-ISDN/ATM access network introduction and define appropriate
network planning design approaches,
- identify areas where standards are urgently required and contribute
as appropriate.
- http://www.cselt.it/Cselt/euresc/P513/welcome.html
The first objective of the project is to identify strategies for
an integrated protection of a telecommunications network where
a number of different layers with their own protection schemes
co-operate to improve service availability and, as a consequence,
to provide criteria for network optimization and planning taking
in to account these advanced protection strategies.
The second objective of this project is to investigate how the
use of radio links (terrestrial or satellite) can influence the
QoS in an SDH network. Running measurements on SDH radio links
will allow to verify whether the present definiton of performance
parameters, mainly based on the use of optical fibre systems,
can fit also the error distribution found in radio systems.
The third objective of the project is to provide guidelines to
network operators for planning and managing a synchronization
network for SDH at the pan-European level. These will require
extensive modelling and simulation activities as well as measurements
on the existing network.

digital image obtains a copyright protection based on watermarking
techniques to avoid misuse.
- http://projekte.tsa.de/configurator/ausgabe/php3/firms/misa/misa.shtml
MISA provides a management tool for public broadband networks
and services as well as the exchange of management information
between the involved Network Operators. This will cover the needs,
when offering international broadband services which span multiple
administrative domains (both operator and customer). In addition,
the integration of the management systems for the different levels
involved (i.e. SDH and ATM), in a broadband network promotes efficient
use of the related public broadband network resources :- improving
the overall reliability of the network and reducing overall costs.

- http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/project/coda/Web/coda.html
Mobility places many demands on a system. Size and weight constraints
limit the computing resources on a mobile client. Network connectivity
is highly variable, and sometimes non-existent. Battery life is
a nagging concern. In spite of these challenges, mobile users
need to access and update information at any time and from any
place. Coda and Odyssey are experimental systems built to explore
these issues.

Geographic Routing is a new protocol for routing data packets
through an internetwork of computers. This protocol distinguishes
itself from the current routing technology by using arbitrary
geographical regions (denoted by longitude and latitude) instead
of logical computer addresses as the criteria to route a packet.
The purpose of this new technology is to extend the capabilities
of the current IP internetwork by adding a new geographic message
protocol to the current IP suite of protocols.
