With the deployment of 5G and the 6G vision being developed, the main challenges for SMARTNESS are how to design and operate cloud computing infrastructures and networks with adequate capabilities to leverage the next generation of Internet services and applications. The scope of end-to-end services at the Internet scale is exceptionally broad and requires contributions across multiple disciplines along with large investments in capital and human resources.
SMARTNESS aims to explore well-planned opportunities through an appropriate methodology based on the confluence of Research Strands (RS) designed to successfully impact world-class research and innovation through Scientific and Technological Advancements (STA) to address challenging use cases in Internet scenarios for industry and society with a vision on the horizon for the year 2030.
SMARTNESS announces three new MSc defenses! The presented research addresses key challenges in networking, including optimizing cloud-native communications with eBPF, integrating Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) with 5G for industrial applications, and enhancing security in programmable networks through scalable compliance verification.
Prof. Dr. Christian Rothenberg (UNICAMP), Coordinator of SMARTNESS 2030, presented a lecture on “15 Years of Software-Defined Networking (SDN): Quo Vadis, SDN?"* at the II Open Networks Training Workshop in Brasília. The talk explored SDN's evolution, current challenges, and future trends, including Intent-Based Networking (IBN) and AI-driven optimization, highlighting its impact on open and disaggregated networks.
Recent research by Francisco Germano Vogt and collaborators discusses innovative methods for enhancing Quality of Experience (QoE) in 360º virtual reality (VR) video streaming. Leveraging P4 programmable data planes, the research presents in-network QoE (INQoE) approaches to address challenges like fluctuating network conditions and adaptive content streaming.
