The EU-BR FUTEBOL project envisages the creation of a
federated control framework to integrate testbeds from Europe and Brazil
for network researchers from academia/industry with unprecedented
features. Our major goal is to allow the access to advanced experimental
facilities in Europe and Brazil for research and education across the
wireless and optical domains.
The Federal University of Minas
Gerais, founded in 1927, is one of the best Brazilian universities
according to ranking sponsored by the Brazilian Ministry of Education
and is ranked 551-600th in the world, according to the QS World
University Rankings 2016/2017. The university has 4 campuses and has
currently over 16000 graduate students. UFMG currently offers 75
undergraduate majors, 77 Master's degree and 63 Doctorate degree
programs. The graduate programs in Computer Science at UFMG have
received the maximum score (CAPES 7) issued by CAPES (Comissão de
Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal do Nível Superior - Commission for
Post-Secondary School Personnel Improvement), which is an organ created
by the Ministry of Education for evaluating and coordinating Graduate
Schools across Brazil.
The FUTEBOL UFMG TESTBED is being developed in the Wireless Networks Laboratory, WINET (Wireless Networks).
The WINET group is one of the research groups in networking of the Computer Science Department. The WINET group participates in several research projects in the topic of wireless networks, developing new networking protocols as well as contributing to network management and security services for wireless communication. The group has several ongoing national and international partnerships, and our researchers publish in the main conference and journals of the area.
The UFMG FUTEBOL Testbed is planning an environment to experimentation
with wireless technologies (WiFi, 3G, 4G,5G), Software-Defined Radio,
Software-Defined Network, Internet of Things, Wireless
integration. Our testbed includes the fol...
We envisage that the testbed will be accessible mainly via the
Fed4Fire platform. All users with valid Fed4Fire credentials will be
able to book and control the resources in the FUTEBOL UFMG
testbed. Also the devices and the experiments will be controlled by ...
