    16     16   ** The CONFINE project (Community Networks Testbed for the Future Internet)
    17     17   - Takes on the previous challenge.
    18     18   - Project supported by the European Community Framework Programme 7 within the
    19     19     Future Internet Research and Experimentation Initiative (FIRE).
