Exceptional results reported from the European Commission at SliceNet’s final review

The SliceNet project has received the EC’s report on the final project review and is pleased to announce that the project is deemed to have fully achieved its objectives and milestones, and to have delivered exceptional results with significant immediate or potential impact.

The key achievements of the project are summarised here:

• SliceNet built a framework for network slicing across multiple administrative domains, facilitating early and smooth adoption of 5G slices for verticals to achieve their demanding use cases, and managing the QoE for slice services. The framework can be used by verticals in many sectors.
• 60+ papers have been published or accepted in international journals, magazines or conferences including several top-tier journal publications in IEEE transactions or journals and other renowned periodicals;
• Numerous other project dissemination events and materials have been produced including both live and recorded webinars for all the 7 technical work packages in the third year of the project, contribution to more than 10 white papers through liaison with 5G PPP program, among others;
• 7 formal contributions to international standardisation organisations including 5 official Work Items created in the third year of the project in ITU-T ML5G and ETSI GANA, in addition to the ETSI ENI POC and an IETF draft in previous years.
• Close collaboration with other 5G and Horizon 2020 projects, especially joint development and trial with Phase 2 project MATILDA for the Smart City Lighting use case, which has been deployed and demonstrated in real-world operational environment.
