Contact points for information: Joseph Latanicki – Thales
Description: Source of transfer:
The goal of the TEFIS project is to address the heterogeneity of testing needs and support the service development lifecycle by providing an open platform for the management of the complete experiment orchestrated across heterogeneous facilities.
TEFIS intends to reach this objective building an abstraction layer above testbeds which will enable composition and interoperability among them.
TEFIS framework is organized into four main functional blocks: TEFIS Portal, TEFIS Middleware (including back-end components and core services), TEFIS users tools, and TEFIS testbed connectors.
The TEFIS framework will provide access to 6 facilities:
  • ETICS: quality, reliability and interoperability testing
  • planetLab: testing and evaluation of network protocols and networked services
  • Pacagrid: distributed systems and cloud computing
  • IMS: compliance with IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) protocols and standards
  • Botnia: end-users involvement in products and services development
  • Kyatera: network performance evaluation

Providing access to such heterogenous facilities, TEFIS supports of the entire service development lifecycle (need finding; business model definition; software design and development; testing, quality and system engineering).

Activity 1 : experimentation
By providing access to a variety of experimental facilities and leading edge infrastructures (networking, cloud and living lab resources), TEFIS will help Thales to experiment innovative communication technologies in conjunction of service-based applications making extensive use of a larger variety of network technologies:
Activity 2 : transfer
  • Support the future components of the Thales’ product portfolio for the professional mobile radio (PMR) market which is more and more intended to support large-scale and communication demanding applications.
  • Ensure a cost-effective, scalable and resilient system design for the Thales Government and Professional customers (such as banking systems) for which security, Quality of Service, scalability and flexibility are key.
  • Address service and application dimensioning and optimisation on top of these ever evolving networking capacities.

Description: Activity:
Creation of a text book on Model-Driven Risk Analysis
The CORAS Approach consists of three artefacts, namely a language, a tool and a method. The coherent approach is not only tied to the IT security domain, but this domain has been most apparent in the development of CORAS, because literature on risk analysis and risk management has a strong focus on safety and mechanical systems, and risk analysis is an emerging field within IT security and it still has need for literature in this domain and context. In the development of CORAS we have used a vast number of industrial trials where the three artefacts of CORAS have been tested and validated in a rigours way.

Contact points for information: Michel Cezon - Inria
Description: Exploitation of results from SOA4ALL by national, Inria wide project Galaxy, through the ProActive platform, through spin-off SME ActiveEon.
The focus is specifically on the following components and elements:
  • A new generation service-oriented environment for agile enterprises and service ecosystems, including a federated service infrastructure, offering the notion of federated service parks, federation that is itself totally distributed, agile, reconfigurable because based upon the GCM/ProActive platform.
  • A Grid component model (GCM) and its ProActive Java-based reference implementation (both R&D and Transfer&Innovation contexts): GCM and ProActive are not new results per se. but; because SOA4All was the opportunity for INRIA to further apply GCM and ProActive in new application domains (like Enterprise Service Bus, P2P semantic data storage), these efforts have and still will contribute to R&D and transfer/innovation.
  • An Eclipse-based module (Mangrove) for bridging SOA editors and representations (both R&D and Transfer&Innovation contexts)
  • A Monitoring, management and performance framework for SOA systems (MonFW, MonConsole) (both R&D and Transfer&Innovation contexts)
  • Exploitation through Open Source channels (OW2, OW2 LCE, Eclipse) and under Open Source licensing models (LGPL, GPL, EPL)

Exploitation is done through:
  • Follow-up research
    • Event clouds: European project PLAY (http://www.play-project.eu) will constitute a seamless follow-up of research and development done in the task 1.3 mainly by taking the Semantic Spaces P2P and Internet scale implementation developed using ProActive as the starting point, ie as a valuable input, to deliver the notion of “event clouds”.
    • French project SocEDA (Social Event Driven Architecture), http://research.petalslink.org/display/soceda/SocEDA%2BOverview, has recently started. It can be understood somehow as a research effort complementary to PLAY, in the sense that it will in particular add a social awareness dimension that will help to organize the whole set of events to be disseminated among bound services, by leveraging and exploiting the underlying social relations that exist among service parks, services, and their users. This last French funded project has also received the support of two Poles de compétitivité SCS and Pegase.
  • Spin-off SME: ActiveEon (spinoff of INRIA OASIS)
    • ActiveEon, whose business is to help users to master the ProActive technology
