The Future Internet will consists in more flexible radio access networks which are less centralized than the network infrastructure we have today. Integration of flexible heterogeneous radio access networks in HetNets will allow further social diffusion of the mobile internet. Therefore the IEEE is exploring novel concepts to allow for flexibly centralised radio access networks […]
Telecommunication and IT industries must work much more closely together than they do it nowadays in order to successfully manage the Internet in the future – especially if we consider that the Internet has become mobile. The future challenges for the mobile internet lie in increasing numbers of mobile end users, rapidly growing data traffic […]
Special thanks to Patricia, Editor in Chief of the ZHAW Impakt Magazine, who was with the ICCLab as “Embedeed Journalist” for two days in July. It was a great time and we are looking forward to reading the result. Patricia on the Free-Throw-Line. The ICCLab spirit is contagious 🙂
On Wednesday afternoon, 25 September 2013, the Future Internet Public-Private Partnership programme, FI-PPP, will hold an information day in Brussels on the upcoming Open Calls organised by the six FI-PPP phase 2 projects.

Making vehicles intelligent was one of the major topics this Wednesday. Transportation is an influential factor to economic growth, but it faces many challenges in the areas of safety, mobility (traffic jams) and protection of the environment. Building intelligent traffic surveillance systems is a major goal of US Department of Transportation researchers James Pol and […]

Campus Party is an annual week long, 24-hours-a-day technology festival where thousands of “Campuseros” (hackers, developers, gamers and technophiles), equipped with laptops, camp on-site and immerse themselves in a truly unique environment.
It is the biggest electronic entertainment event in the world which unites the brightest young minds in technology and science under the idea that “the Internet is not a network of computers, it’s a network of people.”
In the third part of the SmartOS Series (check the first two parts: Intro and Virtualisation) we are going to deep dive into the SmartOS Storage: ZFS. ZFS is a combination of file system and logical volume manager originally introduced in Solaris 10. ZFS includes many features that are key for a Cloud OS such […]

If you ever tried to implement High Availability in OpenStack by using Pacemaker, you might be disappointed by Pacemaker’s extremely slow recovery speed. Pacemaker recovers OpenStack at a very low pace – and even worse: it sometimes detects outages when they do not occur. As a result Pacemaker starts unnecessary computationally intensive recovery actions which […]
