GROW is seeing the departure of some of its members this month, i.e., the M.Sc. students graduating with their theses: Ricardo Batista (in collaboration with Vodafone), João Pinto (in collaboration with NAV), Pedro Tareco, and Pedro Carreira (in collaboration with Optimus). We wish them good luck in their professional career.

News about the several projects in which GROW is involved.
COST IC1004 – http://www.ic1004.org
Papers are being prepared for the incoming meeting, in Feb. 2012, in Barcelona.
EARTH – http://www.ict-earth.eu
Filipe Cardoso and Monica Branco are developing a new version of analytical power model for LTE Base Stations, to be delivered by the end of the year. Filipe Cardoso is actively involved in Power Model related activities in EARTH. António Serrador has contributed to EARTH Deliverables D3.2, on energy savings gains using vertical handovers in heterogeneous networks, and D6.2b, on how this technique can be integrated with others.
Net!Works – http://www.networks-etp.eu
Luis M. Correia is preparing contributions to workshops. A link has been established with the PARADISO project.
monIT – http://monit.it.pt
Information actions in schools and hospitals have been resumed, with several actions already scheduled for the coming months. New monitoring continuous networks were installed in two schools in Amadora, and Agualva (Sintra), and in cooperation of the municipality of Pombal. Results can be seen in the monIT Project website.
SAIL – http://www.sail-project.eu
Lúcio Ferreira and Luisa Caeiro are working for the next milestone, due Jan. 2012, on the interfaces of the OConS architecture. Daniel Sebastião and João Gonçalves are working for the interim report of WP-A.
