News about the several projects in which GROW is involved.
4WARD – http://www.4ward.nu
Daniel Sebastião continued the work on the use-cases and is preparing a list of ideas for disseminate the project results. Luisa Caeiro and António Serrador have send to WP3 colleagues a working document concerning Cooperative Virtual Resource Management concepts and algorithms. Filipe Cardoso has prepared and delivered a document with the Physical Layer Awareness contribution for deliverable D5.2.1. Within deliverable D5.2.1, Lucio Ferreira was named editor of a section on “Wireless Mesh Access”, which congregates contributions from several partners, having been finalised in the meantime. Lucio Ferreira issued an internal report on the work carried out until now within Task T5.4, presenting a channel management strategy for heterogeneous Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), containing a state of the art and a description of the proposed idea. Lucio Ferreira also established a contact with task TC45 in order to identify a collaboration with WP4 – In Network Management.
COST2100 – http://www.cost2100.org
António Serrador will be presenting a Temporary Document, entitled “A Model to Evaluate CRRM QoS Parameters”, at the next meeting in Valencia. Lúcio Ferreira, although not attending the meeting, has prepared a presentation on the status of SIG A for the meeting in Valencia.
eMobility – http://www.emobility.org
Organisation of the next Workshop being held in Madrid was finalised. The email lists of the WG and wiki access were updated. The work concerning the SAA is ongoing.
monIT – http://www.lx.it.pt/monit
The team continued the information activities, with several actions being held in schools, health care centers and in collaboration with some of the Centros de Ciência Viva in the country. The preparation of the next years’ activities is ongoing.
NEWCOM++ – http://www.newcom-project.eu
Contributions to the next WP R.1 Deliverable are being prepared by Carla Oliveira and Michal Mackowiak. António Serrador will perform by the 4th week of June a short time mission at Pisa University, Italy together with Prof. Marco Moreti. This mission will be devoted to WLAN interference models, and the train station scenario will be. Lúcio Ferreira prepared a report and a presentation on the JRA on “Heterogeneous and opportunistic wireless mesh networks” for the WP.R11 meeting.
