4 Cooperation Field between Japan and EU EU-Japan ICT Coordinated Call Topics: a) Optical Communications b) Wireless Communications c) Cybersecurity for improved resilience against cyber threats d) Extending the cloud paradigm to the Internet of Things - Connected objects and sensor clouds within the service perspective e) Global scale experiments over federated testbeds: Control, tools and applications f) Green & content centric networks

5 Key characteristics Excellent proposals Solid consortia Innovative work Proven implementation capability Good impact both on EU and JP Catalytic role for further bilateral cooperation Budget EC Funding for the European project 1.5 M Euros X 6= 9 M Euros MIC/NICT Funding for the Japanese project Similar amount

6 Expected Impact (Generic) Collaborative targeted research and prototyping enable deepened and continued collaboration between European and Japanese researchers and industry, towards the creation of sustainable research links benefiting researchers and industry competitiveness of both sides.

7 Wireless technologies The use of millimetre bands, both in the context of in-door, in-house applications and the possibility to look for use in outdoor applications like sensing or fibre extensions. Achievement of short-range wireless transmission and networking in the teraherz frequency bands. A roadmap towards a possible common standardisation in future high-capacity short-range technologies and sensing technologies. 7

8 Impact Better exploitation of new spectrum parts for short range, very high capacity communication and high resolution sensing applications. Key enabling technologies for the future generations of short-range wireless systems with improved economic, spectral and energy efficiency. Joint identification of standardization requirements and contribution to standardization bodies and fora 8

11 Green and Content-centric networks Change in network architecture from host-oriented to content-centric networking Particular importance are issues related to naming, addressing and routing as well as resource control, access analysis and Digital Rights Management Needs to address the migration perspective from the current Internet protocols and architecture Integration with power consumption information to enable optimization of contents location and routing 11

12 Impact Content centric networking architecture for low energy efficient content delivery and associated standardisation requirements 12

13 Typical Projects 4WARD/SAIL NetInf - Network of Information PSIRP/PURSUIT PubSub - Publish Subscribe Routing COMET CMP - Content Mediation Plane CONVERGENCE CONET Content Network Xerox PARC CCN/NDN - Content-Centric Networking /Named Data Networking 13

14 Special requirements Two proposals submitted (EU and MIC/NICT): The description of the work (part B) will be common for the two coordinated proposals Two different administrative parts. The EU FP7 proposal cover the EC participants and their costs. The proposal submitted to MIC/NICT cover the Japanese participants and their costs

15 Special requirements The Part B must contain as an Annex a final draft of a required Coordination Agreement to be signed between the two consortia of two coordinated projects (see Annex 4 of the Guide) showing that the two consortia have already taken into account how they are going to regulate their cooperation activities, and in particular how they are going to deal with IPR issues in a balanced way, respecting the FP7 Rules of Participation.

16 Special requirements Proposals must demonstrate a balanced effort between the two coordinated projects and a research plan properly involving coordinated research activities between Europe and Japan
