What is an FP7 project? <ul><li>A research proposal addressing an objective and target area, specifying a problem domain, a research agenda, a project plan, a budget and a set of partners (consortium) </li></ul><ul><li>The idea for a proposal needs to be consistent with the objectives and targets in the published call text. </li></ul>

Where you could benefit from participation in FP7 <ul><li>Perimeter [STREP EU FP7 ICT] </li></ul><ul><li>The Perimeter project is looking to establish a new paradigm of user-centrality for advanced networking. In contrast to network-centric approaches, user-centric strategies could achieve true seamless mobility putting the user at the centre rather than the operator enables the user to control his or her identity, preferences and credentials, and so seamless mobility is streamlined, enabling mobile users to be “Always Best Connected” in multiple-access multiple-operator networks of the Future Internet. </li></ul><ul><ul><li>Co-Ordinator = GFI </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><ul><li>10 Partners including Turkcell, Telefónica & Traffic Systems </li></ul></ul></ul>

Mobility & Future Networks Yesterday’s view Operator’s (or visited) network Operator USER IDENTITY AAA server Network is the centre 1 contract No choice

Mobility & Future Networks Today’s view Operator’s (or visited) network Operator A USER IDENTITY AAA server Many networks, but still network centric multiple contracts multiple roles/ identities But manual… choice Operator’s (or visited) network Provider B USER IDENTITY AAA server

Tomorrow’s view – User in the Centre Community network NO “old-style” contracts (Single-sign-on-like experience) Pseudonymized identities for privacy Context-based ABC Quality of Experience (in its broadest sense!) Next generation AAA for mobility Primitives for Service Compostion (QoE) ID, Attribs, Prefs,Auth Cred. 3rd party infrastructures PKI / PMI / ID mgmt / Reputation Frameworks
