Main Objective

One of the key problems to be addressed in future integrated broadband communications (IBC) environments is end-to-end management of communication services to ensure efficient utilization of IBC resources.

The main goal of the PREPARE project is to investigate this problem and develop solutions through the realization of a demonstrator on a real IBC testbed.
