Advanced next generation Mobile Open Network

Objective

The current challenges of the Internet are to accommodate future needs and usages such as billions of fixed and mobile users and devices, reliable transport of all type of data and ubiquitous, seamless and uninterrupted access. This results in a growing demand of researchers and developers for an open testbed to validate new complex applications, services and devices in a mobile and wireless context. Thus, the primary goal of the ANEMONE project is to provide them with such a playground and help inventing tomorrow's world.

The ANEMONE project will realize a large-scale testbed providing support of mobile users and devices and enhanced services by integrating cutting edge IPv6 mobility and multi-homing initiatives together with the majority of current and future wireless access technologies. It will be made of existing testbeds and extensions covering campus and metropolitan areas with a large spectrum of real end users for a pertinent evaluation of advanced services and applications. It will also offer a wide range of multimodal and open terminals such as laptops, PDAs, smartphones and an e-vehicle with a mobile router and local devices.

The ANEMONE testbed will first of all be used by the ANEMONE consortium members for research activities in the domain of advanced mobility and multi-homing and related security issues. However, the testbed will also be open to external researchers and propose a complete infrastructure of service facilities to help RandD teams to focus on their studies rather than on setting up an enhanced test network.

The ANEMONE testbed will be modularized in order to facilitate extensions and enhancements. Thus, arbitrary elements of the testbed can be easily replaced by new developments of the ANEMONE consortium or external researchers. Finally, the ANEMONE testbed will facilitate the development and integration of new and enhanced applications and services by offering a complete set of application programming.
