CREATE-NET's Real-life service-oriented testbed in trento

CREATE-NET's testbed is an open, service-oriented environment, implemented on a real-life city-wide communication infrastructure deployed in the city of Trento. Target user groups and users are integral part of the experimentation and take part in validation of the services implemented in the testbed. It spans the range of the most advanced communications technologies, starting from a wide area DWDM optical backbone, WiMAX Wi-Fi wireless distribution/access networks, all the way to sensor networks and technologies for smart spaces. The testbed also serves as a model of a community network, planned for deployment in the Province of Trento.
