Research Areas and Topics
1. Internet of Things and Services
- Network Architecture and Protocols
- M2M and Machine Type Communication (3G/LTE, WiFi, ZigBee,
etc.)
- Cloud Computing and Big Data Processing
- Self-organization and -optimization, extensibility, openness
- Security and Privacy
2.
Mobile Networks (with active
participation and contributions to 3GPP standardization)
- LTE and Evolved Packet Core (EPC)
- (Distributed) Mobility Management (IP-based)
- Small Cell Networks (incl. Femtocells)
- Traffic offloading (through Wi-Fi or Small Cells Networks)
- User Plane Congestion Management
- Application-aware traffic engineering/optimization
- RAN Sharing enhancements
- LTE SON (self-organizing & -optimizing networks)
- Mobile Backhaul (Transport SON, dynamic resource management)
- Content distribution and delivery enhancements
3. Cloud Networking (expected
contributions to ETSI ISG NFV)
- Network Function Virtualization (virtualized EPC and Cloud
RAN)
- Dynamic resource scaling (resource elasticity)
- Function/VM migration (improved resilience)
- End-to-end cloud resource control and optimization
- Smart network function placement
4. Software Defined Networking
- OpenFlow in Carrier Networks
