Overview
Create a common space between the EU and Brazil for
Future Internet (FI) experimental research into
network infrastructure and distributed applications, by
building and operating a federated EU-Brazil Future internet experimental facility
The project will design, implement and validate a shared Future Internet research facility between Brazil and Europe, supporting the joint Future
Internet experimentation of European and Brazilian researchers

Objective 1
Build a shared large-scale experimental facility that enables
experimentation on network infrastructure and distributed applications,
consisting in
a new testbed in Brazil and
an enhancement of the FP7 OFELIA facility and the basic wireless facility of FP7 OpenLab, the UTH
NITOS testbed, both in Europe.
8
Brazil Facilities
• Create and operate FIBRE-BR that will experiment with new applications and control the network itself dynamically
9
NINE GEOGRAPHICALLY DISTRIBUTED INSTITUTIONAL FACILITIES
L2 long distance network connections
SINGLE WIDE_AREA FI TESBED FACILITY
Brazil Facilities
• The structure of each Brazil node (Institutional Facilities, IF) is compose of:
10
Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Wireless Optical Hybrid
• Openflow substrate• Control and Management Plane (CMF): OMF , OCF,..• Monitoring: Orbit, PerfSONAR
EU Facilities
• The EU large-scale experimental facilities are an extension and federation of the existing OFELIA, and Openlab projects.
• Two of the OFELIA testbeds (i2CAT and UEssex) and the UTH's NITOS testbed will be enhanced by
i) its enhance respective control frameworks ii) adding more physical resources to be able to cope with a bigger number of users and different use casesiii) adding more manpower to operate the facilities
11
EU Facilities
• Enhancements of the OFELIA testbeds (i2CAT and U. Essex) and the UTH's NITOS testbed
OFELIA U. Essex
OFELIA I2Cat
UTH NITOS
12
Objective 2
• Federate the Brazilian and European facilities, to allow researchers to use resources of both testbeds in the same experiment
13
Large scale experimental facilities
• Federation of EU and Brazil FIBRE research infrastructures creating an intercontinental multi-domain, multi-layer and multi-technology experimental platform.
14

RedCLARA-GEANT
• NOC Sau Paulo
NOC EUEssex-i2CAT
Objective 3
• Showcase the potential of the facility by demonstrating experimental network-enabled applications deployed on top of the federated facilities resources.
• Develop local and federated technology pilots and validate the developed local and federated FIBRE facilities through showcases, which have been pre-selected from a number of use cases
15
Pilot applications
The expected applications to be showcased are:• Seamless Mobility for Educational Laptops• High definition (4K) content delivery across different sites• Bandwidth on Demand through OpenFlow GMPLS in the FIBRE facility.
16
Objective 4
• Enhance the collaboration and exchange of knowledge between European and Brazilian researchers in the field of Future Internet
• To develop a project dissemination and communication strategy

Benefits
• FIBRE is a showcase project in international collaboration in Future Internet– Demonstrate local capacity to collaborate with leading
European projects in this important area– Provide local experimental facilities for validating and
demonstrating new FI proposals– Provide opportunity for extension to and participation by
researchers from other Latin American countries– Promote involvement of and technology transfer to the
industrial sector, to prepare for Future Internet needs, especially involving OpenFlow and SDN approaches.
Expected Results
• Intercontinental slices of heterogeneous infrastructure to network researchers.
• A federated infrastructure automatically controlled by one or more CMFs
• High speed intercontinental links connecting the European and the Brazilian parts of the joint facility.
• Enhanced OFELIA Control Framework software• Enhanced OMF and OML software• Federation software and tools• Experimental network application software
24
• Network of contacts between Brazilian and European partners• Internal and external links with similar initiatives• A set of federated infrastructures for users and researchers • Giving researchers the control over resources to define and
manage their own networks• Mainly a infrastructure available between continents• Standarization API• Resources available:
– Wired: optical fibre, GMPLS/WDM, Ethernet switches…– Wireles: WIFI, LTE, WiMax, …

Towards a Mobile Smart City Infrastructure
betweenEU and Brazil
Future of Internet is Mobile

Growing population in urban areas will be growing worldwide
What we need is a Global Mobile Future

Towards Global Mobile Smart Cities Testbed
betweenEurope and Brazil
The next big cycle in computing history: SMART
Integrating wired and wireless infrastructures to provide SMART services
• The main objective is to provide SMART services
• In order to provide SMART services, it is required:• Capacity: mainly provided by wired technologies• Availability: mainly provided by wireless access
technologies (ubiquity)• High-capacity: WiMAX, LTE, WiFi, etc.• Low-capacity: Wireless Sensor Networks, ZigBee,
802.15.4, etc.
• Integrating wired and wireless infrastructures is not trivial if not properly designed
Integrating wired and wireless infrastructures to provide SMART services
Proposal:• Define, develop and validate a horizontal abstraction layer
that allows integrating both wired and wireless technologies in urban environments
• The solution will facilitate:• Easy integration of communication technologies (lower layers)• Easy development of vertical services and applications (higher
layers) that make use of any of the communication technologies• Independence of vendors, service providers, application
developers, etc.
• Validation of two specific vertical use cases:• Smart Mobility
• Objective: reducing traffic related problems in urban areas by deploying real time information systems.
• Energy Efficiency in Smart Buildings• Objective: improving sustainability and reducing energy consumed by
public authorities buildings by deploying tools for permanent energy monitoring and control.
