Bilateral Contracts with Industry

ADR Softwarization of Everything

Joint Nokia-Inria research lab: Several researchers of SUMO are involved in the joint research lab of Nokia Bell Labs France and Inria, in a common research team called "Softwarization of Everything". The objective of this joint team is to design programming and management methods for software defined networks. Several other Inria teams take part to this group: Convecs, Diverse, Spades. Within this team, SUMO focuses on the management of reconfigurable systems, both at the edge (IoT based applications) and in the core (e.g. virtualized IMS systems). In particular, we focus on control and diagnosis issues for such systems.

Alstom P22

Joint Alstom-Inria research lab: Several researchers of SUMO are involved in the joint research lab of Alstom and Inria, in a common research team called P22. On Alstom side, this joint research team involves researchers of the ATS division (Automatic Train Supervision). The objective of this joint team is to evaluate regulation policies of urban train systems, to assess their robustness to perturbations and failures, to design more efficient regulation policies and finally to provide decision support for human regulators. The project started in march 2014. A second phase of the project started in 2016, for a duration of three years. This covers in particular the CIFRE PhD of Karim Kecir.
