Management and Service-aware Networking Architectures (MANA) for Future Internet Position Paper: System Functions, Capabilities and Requirements
Future Internet (FI) research and development threads have recently been gaining momentum all over the world and as such the international race to create a new generation Internet is in full swing: GENI, Asia Future Internet, Future Internet Forum Korea, European Union Future Internet Assembly (FIA). This is a position paper identifying the research orientation with a time horizon of 10 years, together with the key challenges for the capabilities in the Management and Service-aware Networking Architectures (MANA) part of the Future Internet (FI) allowing for parallel and federated Internet(s)

Restorative justice and the right to move on: toward deinstitutionalising the stigma of a criminal conviction
Moves toward restorative justice have tried to reclaim the resolution of conflicts from the exclusive grasp of the state. While much has been achieved in developing new ways of theorising and resolving disputes the consequences of acquiring a criminal record that is retained and deployed by the state have been largely overlooked. In this chapter the authors explore the emergence of the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) in England and Wales and the ways in which the widespread use of criminal records compromises the rights of people to be considered free from the stigma of a criminal conviction. Contemporary developments in legislation and policy regarding the status of criminal convictions are considered and their implications for young people and those who work with them. The authors argue that the principles and practice of restorative justice must address these elements of permanent and increasingly active intrusive scrutiny by the state
Interoperabilidade e mobilidade na internet do futuro
Research on Future Internet has been gaining traction in recent years,
with both evolutionary (e.g., Software Defined Networking (SDN)-
based architectures) and clean-slate network architectures (e.g., Information
Centric Networking (ICN) architectures) being proposed. With
each network architectural proposal aiming to provide better solutions
for specific Internet utilization requirements, an heterogeneous Future
Internet composed by several architectures can be expected, each targeting
and optimizing different use case scenarios. Moreover, the increasing
number of mobile devices, with increasing capabilities and
supporting different connectivity technologies, are changing the patterns
of traffic exchanged in the Internet.
As such, this thesis focuses on the study of interoperability and mobility
in Future Internet architectures, two key requirements that need to be
addressed for the widely adoption of these network architectures. The
first contribution of this thesis is an interoperability framework that,
by enabling resources to be shared among different network architectures,
avoids resources to be restricted to a given network architecture
and, at the same time, promotes the initial roll out of new network
architectures. The second contribution of this thesis consists on the
development of enhancements for SDN-based and ICN network architectures
through IEEE 802.21 mechanisms to facilitate and optimize
the handover procedures on those architectures. The last contribution
of this thesis is the definition of an inter-network architecture mobility
framework that enables MNs to move across access network supporting
different network architectures without losing the reachability to
resources being accessed. All the proposed solutions were evaluated
with results highlighting the feasibility of such solutions and the impact
on the overall communication.A Internet do Futuro tem sido alvo de vários estudos nos últimos anos,
com a proposta de arquitecturas de rede seguindo quer abordagens
evolutionárias (por exemplo, Redes Definidas por Software (SDN))
quer abordagens disruptivas (por exemplo, Redes Centradas na Informação (ICN)). Cada uma destas arquitecturas de rede visa providenciar
melhores soluções relativamente a determinados requisitos de
utilização da Internet e, portanto, uma Internet do Futuro heterogénea
composta por diversas arquitecturas de rede torna-se uma possibilidade,
onde cada uma delas é usada para optimizar diferentes casos
de utilização. Para além disso, o aumento do número de dispositivos
móveis, com especificações acrescidas e com suporte para diferentes
tecnologias de conectividade, está a mudar os padrões do tráfego na
Internet.
Assim, esta tese foca-se no estudo de aspectos de interoperabilidade e
mobilidade em arquitecturas de rede da Internet do Futuro, dois importantes
requisitos que necessitam de ser satisfeitos para que a adopção
destas arquitecturas de rede seja considerada. A primeira contribuição
desta tese é uma solução de interoperabilidade que, uma vez que permite
que recursos possam ser partilhados por diferentes arquitecturas
de rede, evita que os recursos estejam restringidos a uma determinada
arquitectura de rede e, ao mesmo tempo, promove a adopção de novas
arquitecturas de rede. A segunda contribuição desta tese consiste
no desenvolvimento de extensões para arquitecturas de rede baseadas
em SDN ou ICN através dos mecanismos propostos na norma IEEE
802.21 com o objectivo de facilitar e optimizar os processos de mobilidade
nessas arquitecturas de rede. Finalmente, a terceira contribuição
desta tese é a definição de uma solução de mobilidade envolvendo diferentes
arquitecturas de rede que permite a mobilidade de dispositivos
móveis entre redes de acesso que suportam diferentes arquitecturas de
rede sem que estes percam o acesso aos recursos que estão a ser acedidos.
Todas as soluções propostas foram avaliadas com os resultados
a demonstrar a viabilidade de cada uma das soluções e o impacto que
têm na comunicação.Programa Doutoral em Informátic
Flexible media transport framework based on service composition for future network
This work introduces common guidelines defined in several standardization organisms towards future networks based on the actual mechanisms and protocols used to treat the

Converging Future Internet, “Things”, and Big Data: An Specification Following NovaGenesis Model
The convergence of Internet of “things” (IoT) with big data platforms and cloud computing is already happening. However, the vast majority, if not all the proposals are based on the current Internet technologies. The convergence of IoT, big data and cloud in “clean slate” architectures is an unexplored topic. In this article, we discuss this convergence considering the viewpoint of a “clean slate” proposal called NovaGenesis. We specify a set of NovaGenesis services to publish sensor device’s data in distributed hash tables employing selfverifying addresses and contract-based trust network formation. IoT devices capabilities and configurations are exposed to software-controllers, which control their operational parameters. The specification covers how the “things” sensed information are subscribed by a big data service and injected in Spark big data platform, allowing NovaGenesis services to subscribe data analytics from Spark. Future work include implementation of the proposed specifications and further investigation of NovaGenesis services performance and scalability
A Survey of Green Networking Research
Reduction of unnecessary energy consumption is becoming a major concern in
wired networking, because of the potential economical benefits and of its
expected environmental impact. These issues, usually referred to as "green
networking", relate to embedding energy-awareness in the design, in the devices
and in the protocols of networks. In this work, we first formulate a more
precise definition of the "green" attribute. We furthermore identify a few
paradigms that are the key enablers of energy-aware networking research. We
then overview the current state of the art and provide a taxonomy of the
relevant work, with a special focus on wired networking. At a high level, we
identify four branches of green networking research that stem from different
observations on the root causes of energy waste, namely (i) Adaptive Link Rate,
(ii) Interface proxying, (iii) Energy-aware infrastructures and (iv)
Energy-aware applications. In this work, we do not only explore specific
proposals pertaining to each of the above branches, but also offer a
perspective for research.Comment: Index Terms: Green Networking; Wired Networks; Adaptive Link Rate;
