Projects

ICON - Switch-, router-, system- and storage area interconnection networks

Switches and routers are one of the main pillars of modern information and communication technology. Switch- and router architecture is the science on how to design these components so that they achieve the highest possible performance, as well as how to organize a set of such components into cooperating networks.

Resilient Networks

Resilient Networks will develop and demonstrate protocols and methods for routing and self-configuration that have resilience against failing components, misconfigurations and sabotage.

RELAY - Resource utilization in time-dependent large-scale distributed systems

More heterogeneous end-systems and faster access networks make large scale distributed multimedia applications such as streaming and gaming increasingly popular. RELAY addresses issues of resource utilization in such distributed systems by investigating distribution mechanisms, network and operating system support that provide quantifiably better support.

REPAIR – REsilient Protocols And Internet Routing

The purpose of this project is to develop and demonstrate protocols and methods for routing and self-configuration that increases the resilience a network has against a range of challenges like failing components, misconfigurations and unexpected traffic patterns.

Resilient Wireless Networks

The purpose of this project is to design architecture, protocols and algorithms to provide resilient services continuously and effectively for wireless networks. We are expecting to incorporate resilience as an inherent characteristic in wireless networks.

SimTel Innovation

SimTel Innovation is a joint project between Simula Research Laboratory, Simula Innovation AS and Telenor R&I.
