• Project acronym: Euro-NF;

• Duration: January 2008 - June 2012;

• Coordinator: D. Kofman (Intitut Télécom);

• Partners: about 30 partners;

• Abstract: This NoE is focused on the next generation Internet. Its main target is to integrate the research effort of the partners to be a source of innovation and a think tank on possible scientific, technological and socio-economic trajectories towards the network of the future. Euro-NF is supported by the theme "Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)" under the 7th Framework Programme of the European Community for RTD. Euro-NF is a continuation of Euro-NGI

• EIT ICT Labs Action Line: Internet Technologies and Architectures.

• Project acronym: FUN

• Project title: Fundamentals of Networking

• Duration: January 2011 - December 2011

• Coordinator: INRIA TREC

• Partners: the partners are INRIA TREC and INRIA GANG (Fabien Mathieu) in France, VTT (Ilkka Norros, Samuli Aalto) and Aalto University (Pekka Orponen) in Finland, Eindhoven University (Sem Borst, Onno Boxma and Remco van der Hofstad) in the Netherlands.

• Abstract: The aim of this project is to build a community of researchers focusing on fundamental theoretical issues of future networking. The topics of interest include: communication theory, network information theory, distributed algorithms, self-organization and game theory, modeling of large random and complex networks and structures. The proposal builds upon collaborations within the EURONF Network of Excellence, where the three institutions are partners and where the researchers have had fruitful scientific interactions.
