XLAB research and development focus are various distributed systems
with emphasis on the GRID computing, distributed multi agent
technologies and P2P systems. “XLAB Research” is involved in
multiple FP6/7 and national projects. We are mainly active in the
integration of the existing GRID solutions and P2P protocols with
extension of agent technologies. High emphasis is also put to the
network level software development, user interface R&D, control and
library development.
XLAB has researched and developed technology, which is based on highly
distributed algorithms and provides transport and manipulation layer
for various media streams.
Currently we have five post-graduate students (2 PhD, 3 Master thesis)
in the area of GRID computing, P2P systems, Multi-agent technologies,
media (content analysis).
Selected FP6/7 projects:
- XtreemOS – Building and Promoting a Linux-based Operating System to Support Virtual Organizations for Next Generation Grids.
- DeDiSys – dependable distributed systems, IST-2003. Goal of the
project is to evaluate trade-off between availability and constraint
consistency in distributed systems. XLAB participate as research and
development partner on GRID platforms.
- Mosaica – Semantically Enhanced, Multifaceted, Collaborative Access to Cultural Heritage.
Selected national research projects:
- Interactive visualization of flooding areas to support urgent actions
- Computational Grid for Higher Utilization of Computational Resources in Organizations
- Quantitative tracking of regional function and Telenuclearmedicine
development, 2004-2007– applicative project, financed by Research Agency
and Ministry of Health
- GRID distributed resource directory, 2003-2005
- GRID computational services, 2004-2006.
Development in support of research projects
- InstFinder -- a web mining/machine learning application for resolving researcher affiliation
- GRIDy – envelopment framework for Globus
- Utopia – P2P simulation engine
- Felix – Flexible and self-healing distributed simulation execution framework.
Development projects:
