1 Introduction

1.1 PurposeandScopeThis deliverable provides an outline of the dissemination strategy and contains facts on the performed

disseminationactivities.Morespecifically,itreferstoeventsandactivitiesthattookplaceinthefirstyear

oftheproject,namely2015.

The dissemination report is updated on an annual basis in order to depict the current status and it is

related to the deliverable D6.8 Business Plan and Innovation Management, which highlights various

activitiesundertakenaimingatcreatingapositive impacttothesoftwaredevelopmentcommunityanda

1.2 RelationwithotherWPsAlltheworkpackageshaveprovidedinputtothisdeliverable,asalltheaspectsoftheworkdonesofarin

theprojecthavebeenincludedintheseveraldisseminationactivitiesthatarementionedinmoredetailin

section 4. Since the main objective of all dissemination and exploitation activities in ARCADIA is to

maximize the visibility and sustainability of the project outcomes, a coordinated approach in diverse

disseminationandexploitationactivitiesisnecessaryandallpartnersareactivelycontributing.

4 Disseminationactivitiesreport

4.1 Overviewofyear1In the first year of the project, the partners have already participated in a number of dissemination

activities, as it is briefly presented in the following.More specifically,members of the consortium have

presented theARCADIA concepts and ideas at sixworkshops and two conferences, have attended three

cluster meetings and have organized internal meetings in their organizations in order to inform their

colleaguesontheaims,theambitionsandtheresearcheffortswithinARCADIA.Somemoredetailsonthe

workshopsandconferenceswhereARCADIAwaspromotedareprovidedbelow.

The NET FUTURES [7] conference gathers annually over 1.000 attendees and its main objective is to

maximizecompetitivenessoftheEuropeantechnologyindustrybyforminganinterconnectedcommunity

involvingcompanies,organizationsandpeople invarioussectors, likee.g.Research&Innovation,Market

Validation& Living Lab Research, Business Development, Entrepreneurship& Enterprise Strategy, Policy

Making.Thecoreconceptisthatifthegapsbetweenthesecommunitiesarebridged,innovationswillmore

advanced applications of data. It provides an opportunity for researchers and practitioners involved in

ongoingorpastEuropean researchprojects topresent theobjectivesandoutcomesof theseprojectsas

UCC (Utility and Cloud Computing) [3] is the premier IEEE/ACM conference covering all areas related to

CloudComputingasaUtilityandprovidesaninternationalforumforleadingresearchersandpractitioners

in this important and growing field. In the context of this conference, the Sustainable Data Center and

Cloud Computing workshop (SD3C) was organized to tackle specific aspects on energy efficiency for

computinginfrastructure.Datacentreenergyconsumptiondoubledbetween2000and2005andgrewby

Moreover, CNIT is planning to submit papers and participate at the International Teletraffic Congress

(ITC28)thatwilltakeplaceinSeptember2016andatthe11thInternationalConferenceonFutureInternet

Technologies(CFI2016)inJune2016.

AworkshoponProgrammability forCloudNetworksandApplications (PROCON)will beorganized in the

context of the ITC28 [22] international conference. Theworkshopwill cover the scientific areas around

CloudNetworks,ProgrammabilityinsideNetworks,CloudandFogComputingprinciples,SoftwareDefined

Networking,NetworkFunctionVirtualization,andSoftwareEngineeringapproachesforHighlyDistributed

Applications.

Finally it has to bementioned that anARCADIA specificworkshopwill be organized in june 2016 in the

contextofthe25thEuropeanConferenceonNetworksandCommunications(EUCNC)thatwillbeheld in

Athens.

5.2 ClusteringplanningMembers of the ARCADIA consortium are participating in clustering activities. They have attended a

numberofeventsthatfocusedonclusteringandharmonizationwithintheEU.Theseactivitiesareusedto

increase awareness for theARCADIAproject and to create synergieswithother researchprojects in the

field.

MorespecificallyARCADIAcontributestothe“NewApproachesforInfrastructureServices”[20]andtothe

“SoftwareEngineeringforServicesandApplications”[21]clusteractivities.

The former intends to be a forum for discussing the current research and innovation challenges

encounteredat infrastructure-as-a-service levelgeneratedby thedesire to improvetheuserexperiences

andtheefficientuseoftheavailableresources.Thecurrenttrendsareincludingtheintegrationofspecial

devices from high performance computing ones to mobile devices, the design of decentralised service-

19/21

oriented systems, the improvement of the virtualization technologies, the overcome of portability and

interoperability issues, or the automation the organisation andmanagement of the beck-end resources.

Cloud-basedapplicationsfromthefieldsof Internet-of-ThingsandBigDataareexpectedtochallengethe

newservices.

The latteraimsat facilitating thediscussionamong theexperts in thearea toexchangeexperiencesand

competencesandtoidentifyresearchdirectionsandchallengesaswellascommonplanstoaddressthem.

Inparticular,thespecificobjectivesbeingpursuedbytheclusterare:

• identifycomplementaritiesandsynergiesaswellaspossibilitiesforcollaboration/resultsadoptionsbetweenprojects;

• identifynewchallengesandtrendstoinfluencetheEuropeanresearchagenda;

• organizecommondissemination(publications,trainingandworkshops);
