ADOPNET (Advanced Technologies for Operated Networks) contributes to the specification of architectures, protocols, control mechanisms, and monitoring mechanisms for the next generation networks. Our goal is to build networks that are flexible, adaptive, energy-efficient, secure, and able to deliver content on a large scale to various types of terminals. ADOPNET, in particular, addresses the convergence of access networks, the combination of radio and optical technologies, service chaining in the context of virtual network functions.
The team has 2 main axis:
- Radio-Network Control. This includes mobility mangaement, radio resource allocation and scheduling, multiple access technology selection.
- Edge-Network Control. This includese location of virtual network functions and slicing optimisation.
Adopnet research team was created in 2015 and renewed in 2021 and succeeds to ATNET and REOP teams.
