FSN OpenPaaS (2012–2015)

Participants : Olivier Perrin [contact] , Ahmed Bouchami.

Partners:

SAMOVAR team (Telecom SudParis), COAST project-team (Université de Lorraine, LORIA), ARMINES (Ecole des Mines d'Albi), Brake France, Linagora.

The OpenPaaS project aims at developing a PaaS (Platform as a Service) technology dedicated to enterprise collaborative applications deployed on hybrid clouds (private/public). OpenPaaS is a platform that allows to design and deploy applications based on proven technologies provided by partners such as collaborative messaging systems, integration and workflow technologies that will be extended in order to address Cloud Computing requirements. Available as an open-source Enterprise Social Network, the OpenPaaS project innovates both at the collaborative level and by its capacity to leverage heterogeneous cloud technologies at the IaaS level (Infrastructure as a Service). This project is funded under the French FSN umbrella (Fond National pour la société Numérique).

OpenPaas NG (2015–2018)

Participants : Claudia-Lavinia Ignat, François Charoy [contact] , Gérald Oster, Olivier Perrin.

Partners:

Linagora, XWiki SAS, Nexedi, COAST project-team (Université de Lorraine, LORIA), DaScim team (LIX).

Website:

This project is financed by BpiFrance and involves French industrial leaders in open-source software development (Linagora, Nexedi, XWiki) and academic partners in collaborative work (COAST team) and recommender systems (DaScim team, LIX). The goal of the project is to develop next generation cloud enabled virtual desktop based on Enterprise Social Network concept to provide advanced collaborative and recommendation services. COAST team is responsible of the work package dedicated to the design of the peer-to-peer collaborative middleware. In this context, we bring our expertise on data replication for collaborative data in peer-to-peer environments and on trust and access control and identity management in distributed collaborative information systems.

Inria ADT PLM (2014-2016)

Participants : Gérald Oster [contact] , Matthieu Nicolas.

Partners:

COAST project-team, VERIDIS project-team.

This work is performed jointly with Martin Quison (previously member of project-team VERIDIS, now Professor at ENS Rennes).

The Programmer's Learning Machine (PLM) is a software platform dedicated to computer programming education. This generic platform offers support to teachers for creating programming microworlds suitable to teaching courses. It features an integrated and graphical environment, providing a short feedback loop to students in order to improve the effectiveness of the autonomous learning process.

This project aims at establishing an experimental platform for studying the teaching of basic programming and a research instrument to design new collaborative learning environments.
