Projects (Past/Current)

---

NetFPGA project is a line-rate, flexible, and open platform for research, and classroom experimentation.
NaaS project aka "Network-as-a-Service" allows tenants to customise the service that they receive from the network and deploy custom routing protocols, as well as more sophisticated mechanisms.
SSICLOPS project aka "Scalable and Secure Infrastructures for Cloud Operations" focuses on techniques for the management of federated private cloud infrastructures.
