Coverage

• theoretical analysis
• practical measurements
• stress testing
• research challenges:

Security & Authentication

• pass through,
• "virtuell fixed network operator"
• non-encrypted information flow

Quality of Service

• control service

Business models

• customer subscription versus provision from
• macro network costs versus femto costs, OPEX and CAPEX
• eksempel: FFI as femto provider
• børs versus management

Pilot

• konseptutvikling (bidrag fra FFI/Trondheim samarbeid - GNU software radio, Stig Frode, Torbjørn...)
• pilot market analysis

Budget

• 4 MNOK med 40% støtte av Forksningsrådet(?)
  • (6 MNOK totalbudget) for å dekke 3 x 800 kNOK = 2.4 MNOK for Dr. Grad

Finansering

• 20% arbeidskraft fra 4 bedrifter = 0.8 PY = 1.3 MNOK
• 6 bedrifter til å støtte PhD utdannele med 100 kNOK/år i 3 år = 1.8 MNOK
• (evtl. støtte fra UNIK 30% av PhD)
• missing: 2.9 MNOK (with UNIK help missing 1 MNOK?)
