Overall Objectives
Hipercom project-team aims to design, evaluate and optimize the telecommunication algorithms. The aimed areas are protocols, new telecommunication standards and quality of service management in networks. The aimed activity fields are centered around the new networks and services supporting internet. Although we address the whole spectrum of telecommunication domain, practically the Hipercom project team is specialized in local area networking, local loops, in particular mobile ad hoc networking. However the thematic extends to the information theory and modelization of internet graph and traffics.
The scientific foundations are the following:
-
Analytic information theory,
-
Methodology for telecommunication algorithm evaluation,
-
Traffic and network architectures evaluation,
-
Algorithms conception and implementation
The objectives assigned to HIPERCOM were:
-
Massive mobile dense wireless networks
-
New services and protocols
-
Wireless and backbone integration
-
Convergence 4G manet internet
The last objective about the convergence between 4G and manet has been put aside to the benefit of the three other objectives. The main reason is because there is no real demand in this very technological item.
