4WARD - Architecture and Design for the Future Internet
Category
FP7 Project with U.S. partner
Short name and number
4WARD (216041)
Area
Information & communication technologies
Description
Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimise and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Internet.
Participating Countries
Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Spain, Sweden, United States, Israel, Switzerland and Canada.
