  4. IP-FLOW Overview • Research Area 1 – UTC-based pipeline forwarding for solving switch and link bottlenecksdelivery of very high capacity streaming data • Research Area 2 – TrustedFlow for run-time software authenticationtrusted delivery and processing of data • Research Area 3 – B-GLOW - Broadband services via GLobal Optical and Wireless integration - delivering streaming data to Wi-Fi clients Prof. Yoram Ofek - DIT - University of Trento, Italy

  5. Optimal UTC-based pipeline forwarding ensures: • 1. Efficient expenditure on equipment/infrastructure: • Single fully utilized network – convergence to 1 wire 1 network • 2. Revenue from serviceswith deterministic QoS: • Streaming/interactive media: video, audio, multimedia Research Area 1 - MotivationThe Telecom (Unfinished) Story • Why the telecom industry: vendors and providers are more or less in “bankruptcy” ( two trillions $ debts) • They ignored cash flow: • 1. spending money wisely … • 2. earn more money from new services Prof. Yoram Ofek - DIT - University of Trento, Italy
