Future Internet

Mission

The vision of the Future Internet research programme is that the Internet will become a mission critical backbone of global information society with billions of mobile and wire line users instantly connected to information and each other, and using the Internet to communicate, conduct business, manage their everyday lives, express themselves, and enjoy entertainment.

The objective is to develop concepts, technologies, and supporting theories and methodologies needed to design and implement future computing services and products for the Internet of the future.

Research challenges

 The future progress of the Internet is constricted by several bottlenecks: unwanted traffic, choking of the routing system, mobility and multi-homing, compensation and congestion, privacy and attribution, and trust and reputation. The current bottlenecks and deficiencies are limiting the potential utility of the Internet.

 The core theme of the Future Internet programme is to find ways to remove these obstacles. These include the creation of new network architecture concepts and mechanisms, in particular information-centric network approaches and post-IP networking architectures. The solutions are applied not only in traditional wireline networks, but also in wireless and pervasive environments, addressing the specific needs of those scenarios.
