RRM Challenges for Non-Conventional and Low-Cost Networks in Ambient Networks
- 2005
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper presents an overview of the Radio Resource Management (RRM) functionalities needed for Non-Conventional and Low-Cost Networks. These types of networks are characterized by increased cooperation between different types of networks and providers and they are believed to play a fundamental role for future wireless network networking. The paper describes three specific concepts, which latter is used to identify new RRM challenges. In addition, it identifies the relation between the RRM challenges and the Ambient Networks architecture and functionalities, in particular the multiradio resource management functionality.

Validation of the Ambient Networks System Architecture

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Ambient Networks project develops a complete and coherent solution for control architectures in future networks. In particular, the concept of Ambient Control Space has been proposed to support a technology-agnostic, modular and dynamic control plane. The second phase of the project (2006-2007) has an increased focus on validation, where two complementary tracks are being followed: proof-of- concept prototyping and performance evaluation through simulations. The prototype modules, focusing on requirement engineering, were validated during the process of integrating them into a common control space prototype, which was later used to build the demonstration setups. The system performance evaluation through simulations deals with aspects such as capacity utilization, reachability, cost and performance trade-offs and also provides evidence that the additional AN features (e.g., composition) do not introduce excessive signaling overhead. We target different composition aspects, advertising & discovery, negotiation of composition agreements and their interaction with multi-radio access and mobility control. Our validation approach is based on several use cases.

A Multi-Radio Access Architecture for Ambient Networking
- 2005
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Ambient Networks concept targets forthcoming dynamic communication environments; characterized by presence of a multitude of different wireless devices, network operators and business actors that can form instant inter-network agreements with each other. In this paper we propose an architecture, including the concepts of Multi-Radio Resource Management and a Generic Link Layer, for efficient use of heterogeneous access technologies in such emerging scenarios.

ELIXIR and Toxicology : a community in development
- 2021

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Toxicology has been an active research field for many decades, with academic, industrial and government involvement. Modern omics and computational approaches are changing the field, from merely disease-specific observational models into target-specific predictive models. Traditionally, toxicology has strong links with other fields such as biology, chemistry, pharmacology and medicine. With the rise of synthetic and new engineered materials, alongside ongoing prioritisation needs in chemical risk assessment for existing chemicals, early predictive evaluations are becoming of utmost importance to both scientific and regulatory purposes. ELIXIR is an intergovernmental organisation that brings together life science resources from across Europe. To coordinate the linkage of various life science efforts around modern predictive toxicology, the establishment of a new ELIXIR Community is seen as instrumental. In the past few years, joint efforts, building on incidental overlap, have been piloted in the context of ELIXIR. For example, the EU-ToxRisk, diXa, HeCaToS, transQST, and the nanotoxicology community have worked with the ELIXIR TeSS, Bioschemas, and Compute Platforms and activities. In 2018, a core group of interested parties wrote a proposal, outlining a sketch of what this new ELIXIR Toxicology Community would look like. A recent workshop (held September 30th to October 1st, 2020) extended this into an ELIXIR Toxicology roadmap and a shortlist of limited investment-high gain collaborations to give body to this new community. This Whitepaper outlines the results of these efforts and defines our vision of the ELIXIR Toxicology Community and how it complements other ELIXIR activities.
