IRoNet seminar on Thursday, January 8th, 2004.  Seminar Program and Presentations

Press release of the TEKES/IRoNet-program on February 1st, 2002.

IRoNet seminar on December 10th, 2002 (1pm-4pm).


IRoNet is a laboratory wide effort to produce a new generation of IP router networks. It spans from the beginning of 2002 all the way to 2004 primarily funded by TEKES and industry partners. The IRoNet research team is one of the spear-head groups selected in the NETS-program by TEKES to advance research in the area of future networks.

The industrial and other full partners supporting the IRoNet financially are:

The following companies contribute by advisory membership in the Steering Group.    CSC Scientific Computing is also participating in IP network measurements in a joint activity with IRoNet.

The project is focused on issues of QoS in the development of the future multi-purpose Internet. The project has four major research topics:

  1. Traffic classification studies the use and methods of traffic classification in future IP networks.
  2. Forwarding plane and traffic stream modelling.
  3. Class and constraint based routing studies to understand the feasibility and means of class and constraint based routing used in DiffServ networks.
  4. Management of QoS in the multi-service Internet.

Staff


The project is carried out by the HUT Networking Laboratory.
