GROWing meeting
News about the several projects in which GROW is involved.
COST IC1004 – http://www.ic1004.org
Michal Mackowiak, Lúcio Ferreira and Sina Khatibi are preparing contributions for the next meeting.
LEXNET – http://www.lexnet-project.eu
Simulations for SAR evaluation (WP2) and influence of the body on the dosimeter (WP3) are running. Quite some effort was allocated to the edition of the first annual report and the preparation of the project evaluation meeting to be held on January.
MCN – http://www.mobile-cloud-networking.eu
GROW’s team is progressing with the challenge of developing an architecture to provide RAN as a service (RANaaS), following cloud computing principles of pooled resources, offered on-demand, elastically and paid-per-use. A paper has been written entitled “An Architecture to offer Cloud-Based Radio Access Network as a Service”, to be submitted to EUCNC. In parallel, the work on the two associated research topics, on (a) the management of virtual radio resources and (b) radio and cloud resources management, is progressing.
NEWCOM# – http://www.newcom-project.eu
GROW will host the Track 1 and Track 2 meeting in Lisbon in January. Contributions to the presentations thst will be given by the task leaders during the meeting are being prepared. In particular, a work to be developed with EURECOM will be discussed, within Cloud-RAN, on the computation resources needs of software-based baseband units.
FAQTOS – http://www.faqtos.pt
Information actions are being held in secondary schools on exposure to EMFs and how mobile communication systems work. Two actions are programmed in January. The team also performs measurements in municipalities, with three collaborations being prepared.
