Objectives:
- Set up a list at project start of projects and initiatives that are related to the topics handled in ECONET and that represent a strong interest for cooperation. At this early stage, cooperation is envisaged with, but not limited to the following projects:
- "The Energy Efficient Internet Project", funded by NSF, linking by USF;
- "Energy Efficient Digital Networks" project and the U.S. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, linking by USF.
- "Energy-Aware Radio and neTwork technologies - EARTH", funded by EC, linking by ALU and TELIT.
- "Green Touch" initiative by Bell Labs of Alcatel-Lucent, linking by ALU.
- "ICT for Energy Efficiency - ICT4EE" forum, linking by TELIT.
- "Cognitive radio and Cooperative strategies for POWER saving in multi-standard wireless devices - C2POWER", funded by EC, linking by LQDE.For each of these projects a partner will take the responsibility of the liaison throughout the project duration.
- The Cooperation with such initiatives, fora and R&D project will aim at:
- Exchanging and comparing perspectives on next-generation energy-efficient networks, technical knowledge and results and main achievements;
- Creating synergies for impacting on standardization bodies in a way effective as much as possible;
- Participating to forum activities (e.g., ICT4EE) in order to create consensus and common visions and make the impact on standardization easier.
- Creating inter-workable energy-efficient solutions, protocols and technologies for future network technologies (e.g., between ECONET wired solutions and EARTH wireless ones);
- Organizing and/or participating to common events, workshops and open panels/discussions in order to maximize the impact and the soundness of EC efforts in the field of energy-efficient ICT.
