ACES Group

The ACES group is carrying out research in the area programming models and system support for ambient applications. The goal of our research on operating system support is to define platforms that enable programs to run on resource-limited devices, where wireless network connection fluctuates. In particular, we are looking at environments built around Java™ technology, in order to maximise application safety and portability.

Collaborations

	We are involved in four research projects funded by the European Union: SmartMuseum is an FP7 project whose aim is to develop a platform for innovative services enhancing on-site museum access to heritage content. ROBOSWARM is project whose aim is to develop an open knowledge environment for self-configurable, self-learning and robust robot swarms usable in everyday applications. ReSIST project is a network of excellence that brings together research institutes from all over Europe to work on scalable security and dependability techniques for large-scale ubiquitous systems.
	The group is participated in Java Specification Request 284. This JSR is defining a Resource Consumption Management API for Java applications.
	ERCIM Working Group on Software Evolution is studying various aspects of the management of the evolution of software systems.
	PRIAM - Privacy Issues and Ambient Intelligence. An INRIA funded cooperative research action whose aim is to study the modeling of privacy law in information systems.,.
	In collaboration with Alcatel, we are designing an architectural model for representing the different components of a mobile heterogeneous network (mobile terminals, access controllers, legacy network, etc.).
	TVMSL - In this project, we are studying DVB-SH communication coupled with 3G networks.
