- A challenge: How to support the growth and sustainability of community
networks by providing the means to conduct experimentally driven research.
** The CONFINE project (Community Networks Testbed for the Future Internet)
- Takes on the previous challenge.
- Project supported by the European Community Framework Programme 7 within the
Future Internet Research and Experimentation Initiative (FIRE).
- Partners (list with logos): Fundació guifi.net, Funkfeuer, Athens Wireless
Metropolitan Network (community networks); Universitat Politècnica de
Catalunya, Fraunhofer Institute for Communication, Information Processing
and Ergonomics, Interdisciplinary Institute for Broadband Technology
(research centres); the OPLAN Foundation, Pangea (NGOs).
- Objectives: Provide a testbed and associated tools and knowledge for
researchers to experiment on real community networks.
** Testbeds
- Environments built with real hardware for realistic experimental research on
network technologies (instead of simulations).
- Wireless: Berlin RoofNet, MIT Roofnet (outdoor); IBBT's w-iLab.t, CERTH's
NITOS, WINLAB's ORBIT (indoor). Limited local scale, controlled
environment, no resource sharing between experiments.
- Internet: PlanetLab, planet-scale testbed with resource sharing on nodes.
Main inspiration for Community-Lab.
** Community-Lab: a testbed for community networks
- The testbed developed by CONFINE.
- Integrates and extends three Community Networks: guifi.net, FunkFeuer, AWMN.
# Node maps here for CNs with captures from node DBs.
