WELCOME TO ANSP

 

 

The ANSP project (an Academic Network at São Paulo), as determined by a decision of FAPESP's Board of Trustees, “provides the State of São Paulo research community with state of the art computer networking connectivity.”

 

ANSP develops and maintains the infrastructure, Internet services and data communication in general which, in conjunction with ANSP’s Technical Reserve Program, offers the education and research community in the State of São Paulo the technological means needed to access information throughout the world, to share knowledge, to develop collaborative projects and for innovation on a large scale.

 

The ANSP Project is run by NARA from The Medical School of the University of São Paulo and is funded by FAPESP through process 2013/11711-5

 

OPEN CALL FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE 2013 IEEE SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKS FOR FUTURE NETWORKS AND SERVICES (SDN4FNS)

Trento, Italy, 11-13/11/2013

Software Defined Networks - A shift in the paradigm for businesses or fun for technicians?

 

Software Defined Networks (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) are creating conditions for the reinvention of network architecture. This is happening first on the edges of the network, to where intelligence has already begun to migrate and where innovation is urgent to overcome rigidities through the flexibility of network infrastructure and services.

It is likely that SDNs will impact the future evolution of networks. The adoption of the principles of SDNs will enable savings in costs and improvements in the Quality of Service (QoS) and also create new market opportunities. It will be a question of following the line of thought that predicts that technology and business development will be increasingly intertwined. A given technology will be adopted not only considering its advantages and reliability, but also it will be judged as to whether it will be able to create the desired ecosystem. On the other hand, recently developed ecosystems look for permissive solutions and technologies capable of making them a reality.

Up until 13 August, 2013 the conference is seeking original and unpublished contributions which elaborate on, but are not limited to:

  • Telcos and SDN scenarios (seen not only from the point of view of the network operator, but also of the suppliers, OTTs and other participants in corporate networks, as well as electronics consumers).
  • Advances in software and hardware that enable SDN and NFV.
  • Management and orchestration, regulatory aspects, business models and technical and economic sustainability of SDNs.
