BIO-ICT AT RIPE NCC REGIONAL MEETING
BIO-ICT researcher Slavica Tomović participated at the sixth South East European (SEE) RIPE NCC Regional Meeting (SEE 6), from 12 until 13 June 2017 in Budva, Montenegro.
The goal of the meeting was to present the latest developments in the Internet industry and to identify, discuss and solve the specific issues that affect operators working in this region, and to encourage the cooperation between the operators. Slavica was one of the three participants from academic institutions, selected to present the experimentally confirmed research results related to the Future Internet design. She presented a new Quality of Service (QoS) aware design of SDN (Software Defined Networking) controller, named OpenMont, which is implemented on SDN tested at Faculty of Electrical Engineering in Podgorica. The presentations attracted a lot of attention and inspired interesting discussions on the forum, attended by more than 150 participants.
