FIT is one of the 52 laureate projects of the “excellence equipments” call of the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research. It regroups UPMC Sorbonne Universités, INRIA, Université de Strasbourg (LSIIT), Institut Mines-Télécom (Télécom ParisTech & Télécom SudParis) and CNRS around the construction of a large scale federated experimentation platform for the Internet of Things.
FIT (Future Internet of Things) aims to develop an experimental facility, a federated and competitive infrastructure with international visibility and a broad panel of customers. It will provide this facility with a set of complementary components that enable experimentation on innovative services for academic and industrial users. The project will give French Internet stakeholders a means to experiment on mobile wireless communications at the network and application layers thereby accelerating the design of advanced networking technologies for the Future Internet.
