The TIGER project awarded CELTIC-Gold

The TIGER PROJECT Receives CELTIC GOLD!

[21/1/2009]

The TIGER project ("Together IP, GMPLS and Ethernet Reconsidered"), a EUREKA-CELTIC international industrial cooperation project, in which Virtual Trip has participated through GSRT and recently successfully completed, has been awarded the gold CELTIC Excellence Award.

The TIGER (EU) project has been considered a very successful project by the CELTIC organization and its sequel, TIGER-2, has been strongly favoured and encouraged by CELTIC.

Virtual Trip has participated in the European consortium of the TIGER project as partner and work-package (WP4) leader, having contributed innovative network simulation and analysis tools and methods, incl. one conference paper publication. The consortium included partners such as Alcatel-Lucent, Orange - France Telecom, Nokia-Siemens, FORTH, Univ. Politecnica de Catalunya, RAD Data Communications, ENST, IBBT, etc.

The "TIGER Tool", an Approximate Mean Value Analysis Solver tool, has been presented in the 8th IASTED Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing and Networks (PDCN 2009), in Innsbruck, Austria (16-18 Feb. 2009), by Dr. Fotis K. Liotopoulos, Director of Virtual Trip's RTD dept., who also co-chaired the "Algorithms" sessions of that conference.

The "TIGER Tool" is a unique and very flexible, high-level performance analysis tool, which can be used for the design and sizing of large Metropolitan Ethernet networks, consisting of several thousands of network nodes and millions of customer services.

The tool is highly parametric and solves very complex, closed, fixed-queueing network models of large metropolitan networks in only a few seconds!
