Thesis defense by Flávio Meneses

Posted by dcorujo

Today, Flávio Meneses successfully defended his Master Thesis entitled "Future network challenges". In his work, he deployed Software Defined Network (SDN) mechanisms in mobile nodes, coupling them with network-controlled/assisted flow mobility management capabilities, using the OpenFlow protocol.
SDN, with its ability to decouple the control and the data planes, has thus been applied into wireless environments, with the conceived framework able to be deployed in heterogeneous scenarios.
We all congratulate Flávio for is excellent work, and wish him the best for his future endeavours.

SKA Organization Visit to national consortium

Posted by jpbarraca

Today, Phil Diamond (SKA Director General) and Qiming Wang (STRATCOM) from the SKA Organization will be with the SKA Portuguese Consortium in an event hosted by AICEP, and with the participation of all consortium members, FCT, and ANI, among others. The visit is intended to review the Portuguese participation and present the opportunities and benefits stemming from an early engagement in the SKA future international organization. A description of the potential areas where Portugal may be interested (strategic S&T+I roadmap mapping construction, procurement policies, strategic trade & investment within an international S&T cooperation project) will be discussed. As these plans consolidate it is of paramount importance to address several key issues and be an active participant in the definition of SKA core policies by 2015.
Among other consortia, ATNoG members are actively participating in the design of the Telescope Manager where IT leads the Local Infrastructure (LINFRA).
