Logo INRIA MAESTRO: models for performance analysis and control of network

Ongoing academic collaborations

  • DAWN

    MAESTRO has privileged collaborations with the Indian Institute of Science at Bangalore, the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research at Mumbai, and the University of Pennsylvania, through an associated team called DAWN (Distributed Algorithms for Wireless Networks).

  • ANR SYSCOM Modecol (2009-2012)

    MAESTRO is partner of the ANR SYSCOM Modecol project, titled "Using modeling to improve the ecological services of prairial ecosystems". The participants are: UMR Ecobio (CNRS/Univ. Rennes 1, project coordinator), University of Houston (USA), University of La Rochelle, INRIA (Project-Teams Maestro, Mere, Tosca, P. Del Moral), University of Berkeley (USA).

    MAESTRO is a member of the IST STREP europeean project "ECODE" (Experimental cognitive distributed engine). This 3-year project (to be launched in September 2008) is coordinated by A-LBell (Anvers) and envolves UCL, ULg, IBBT, INRIA (MAESTRO and PLANETE), ULANC, and CNRS.

  • EuroNF (2008-2010)

    MAESTRO is a partner of the Network of Excellence (NoE) EuroNF on Anticipating the Network of the Future - From Theory to Design.

  • ECO-NET program

    MAESTRO and its partners, the University of Saint Petersburg and the University of Erevan, are working on "Game Theory for Wireless Networks".

  • CEFIPRA program

    MAESTRO and the IISc, Bangalore, are working on "Emerging Strategies forWireless Communication Networks".

Past academic collaborations

  • BIONETS (January 2006 - February 2010)

    MAESTRO is a member of the IST FET Europeean project BIONETS (Integrated Project BIOlogically-inspired autonomic NETworks and Services).
    The motivation for BIONETS comes from emerging trends towards pervasive computing and communication environments, where myriads of networked devices with very different features will enhance our five senses, our communication and tool manipulation capabilities. The complexity of such environments will not be far from that of biological organisms, ecosystems, and socio-economic communities. Traditional communication approaches are ineffective in this context, since they fail to address several new features: a huge number of nodes including low-cost sensing/identifying devices, a wide heterogeneity in node capabilities, high node mobility, the management complexity, the possibility of exploiting spare node resources. BIONETS aims at a novel approach able to address these challenges.

    See here the list of our partners.

  • EuroNGI/EuroFGI

    MAESTRO is a partner of the Network of Excellence (NoE) EuroNGI/EuroFGI on the Design and Engineering of the Next/Future Generation Internet; EuroNGI: December 1, 2003 - November 30, 2006, EuroFGI: December 1, 2006 - May 31, 2008.

  • ARC POPEYE (2008-2009)

    MAESTRO is the coordinator of the INRIA Cooperative Research Initiative POPEYE (Populations, Game Theory and Evolution). This proposal focuses on the behavior of large complex systems that involve interactions among one or more populations. The partners are MAESTRO (coordinateur), MESCAL (INRIA), INRA (Montpellier, Sophia Antipolis), U. Paris 6, U. Avignon, UNSA.

  • ARC COINC (2006-2007)

    MAESTRO is a partner of the INRIA Cooperative Research Initiative COINC (COmputational Issues in Network Calculus).

  • ARC IFANY (2006-2007)

    MAESTRO is the coordinator of the INRIA Cooperative Research Initiative IFANY (Information theory: New challenges and new interdisciplinary tools).

  • INRIA/NSF cooperation

    MAESTRO is part of a 5-year NSF ITR (Information Technology Research) project entitled "QoS in the future Internet". US partners are R. Guérin (Univ. of Pennsylvanie), J. Kurose and D. Towsley (Univ. of Massachusetts), Z.-L. Zhang (Univ. of Minnesota). The objective of the project is to develop a theoretical framework within which to evaluate different architectures (diffserv, etc.). The project started in 2001.

  • ARC PrixNet (2003-2004)

    MAESTRO is a partner of the INRIA Cooperative Research Initiative PrixNet whose goal is to develop, implement and compare new pricing schemes for telecommunication networks.

  • ARC TCP (2002-2004)

    MAESTRO is the coordinator of the INRIA Cooperative Research Initiative ARC TCP on the development of models and algorithms for TCP/IP Networks.
