CINEMA

Computação INteligente, Escalável, Móvel e Altamente disponível na Internet

Funding: FAPESP

Powerd by: UFPR, UTFPR, UFSM, and UNIOESTE.

This project acts on several innovative work fronts for the Internet. Its main foundation is the revolution of the Internet through virtualization technologies. In particular, the project focuses on Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) technology. Among the topics investigated are: high availability of virtualized network functions and services; provision of innovative distributed services (implemented with NFV technology) by the infrastructure itself; investigation of Distributed Artificial Intelligence techniques for the management of NFV ecosystems. The project also includes other research fronts, such as the search for efficient and scalable distributed solutions based on the VCube virtual topology; and the implementation of robust components applied in the context of 5G networks based on the O-RAN (Open Radio Access Network) architecture.

GT-FENDE

Federated Ecosystem for OfferiNg, Distribution, and Execution of Virtual Network Functions

Funding: RNP

Powerd by: UFPR, UFRGS, and UFSM.

Partners: Universität Zürich, UNICAMP, Universiteit Gent, and UFCE.

It is an ecossystem to support the desing, development and instantiation of NFV-based services, in addition to a marketplace for offering and distribution of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). FENDE presents itself as a unique system of its kind, and enables the distribution of both networks functions and services, in a manner that is akin to virtual marketplaces (e.g., Google Play and Apple Store). FENDE also allows the management of services and functions, including Service Function Chainning (SFC).
