Tema/Topic: Software Defined Networking (SDN) - Facilitando a Inovação/Facilitating Innovation

 

Summary:  The 7th API Think-Tank meeting is dedicated to the theme "Software Defined Networking: Facilitating Innovation". SDN has evolved in way to facilitate innovation since it allows new ideas for networking solutions to be tested in different scales in real world deployments. It allows networking researchers to easily overcome the closed/proprietary drawbacks found when attempting to use core switches/routers and to suitably assess the performance of such new ideas without compromising the functioning of the networks targeted for innovation. Thus, we invite you to submit teaser topics and/or demos and to engage in fruitful discussions about this theme with researchers from academia, industry, and government agencies.

 

Sumário: O 7º encontro Think-Tank da API é dedicado ao tema "Software Defined Networking: Facilitando a Inovação". SDN tem evoluído de forma a facilitar a inovação, uma vez que permite que novas idéias de soluções de rede sejam testadas em diferentes escalas de implementações reais. Com isso, pesquisadores na área de redes de computadores conseguem superar as barreiras encontradas ao tentar utilizar switches/routers fechados e com software proprietários e adequadamente avaliar o desempenho de novas idéias, sem comprometer o funcionamento das redes alvo de inovação. Assim, convidamos a comunidade científica a enviar teaser topics e/ou demonstrações e a envolver-se em discussões produtivas sobre o tema com outros pesquisadores da academia, indústria e agências governamentais.

** Software-Defined Networks (SDN) shall change telecommunication networks and its industry, with impact throughout its entire chain. For developing countries, such as Brazil, SDN offers unprecedented opportunities to influence the evolution of the Internet and to create a local networking software industry that is globally competitive. This presentation will address the opportunities SDN offers, its challenges and what CPqD has done to promote SDN in Brazil and worldwide.

Speaker: Dr. Marcos Rogério Salvador is technology evolution manager for converged network and responsible for the SDN activities at CPqD as well as one of the promoters of SDN and Future Internet in Brazil and worldwide.  He earned his Ph.D. degree in computer science from University of Twente, Netherlands, in 2003. Since then, he has worked at CPqD with innovations in the areas of optical and packet networks, as senior researcher/project coordinator and applied research manager.

 

6th API Think-Tank - Cooperative Sensing

Summary:  The 6th API Think-Tank is dedicated to the theme Cooperative Sensing as a Valuable Social Media.    Sensing aspects from our environment and collecting related data through technology surrounding us as invidual citizens is a recent trend which has seen a boost on the last years. Initiatives related to cooperative sensing start to be common,  be it from entities associated with specific fields (e.g. transportation, health, education, governmental projects, disaster environments), from the individual user (e.g. social networks and social networking), or from more research oriented projects (e.g. emotional mapping). More than common, such initiatives are either based on grassroots initiatives coming from the Internet end-user, or from entities which see a benefit in globally providing open data repositories.
