ANR Socioplug (1/12/2013-31/11/2017)

  • SOCIOPLUG aims to provide models for programming, querying and securing federation of plugs while preserving symmetry, fairness and privacy. Socioplug will explore how to deploy efficiently disorderly distributed programs on a federation of plugs. Socioplug will confer to plug programmers the ability to perform "community-based" queries i.e., queries that preserve information symmetry. Finally, Socioplug will secure the federation by monitoring divergence evolution of streams on each node and by integrating a usage control model based on data publishers rather than service providers.

  • DeSceNt aims to ease the writing of distributed programs on a federation of plug computers. Plug computers open the opportunity for everyone to create cheap nano-clusters of domestic servers, host data and services and federate these resources with their friends, colleagues, and families based on social links. This project’s vision is that plug computers can form the core component of a social-based infrastructure organized around the concept of federation.

Lodpaddle: publink call of EU FP7 Lod2 (2013-2014)

  • The Regional Council of the Pays de la Loire, the department of Loire-Atlantique, Nantes M.etropole and the city of Nantes have recently launched a shared open data portal with more than 350 open data sets. LodPaddle objectives includes transformation and publishing of all regional raw structured datasets into semantic data interlinked with linked open data. The LodPaddle project raises the following issues: (i) The selection of valuable data for publication as LOD, (ii) the best practices for continuous transformation and linked open data publishing, (iii) the best practices for publishing linked open data.

ANR Kolflow (2011,2014)

  • The Kolflow is a 3-years basic research project taking place from 1 February 2011 to 31 July 2014, funded by French National Agency for Research (ANR), program ANR CONTINT(ANR-10-CORD-0021). The aim of the project is investigation on Man-machine collaboration in continuous knowledge-construction flows. Kolflow partners are GDD(LINA), Orpailleur (LORIA), Silex (LIRIS), Wimmics (INRIA). The coordinator of Kolflow is Pascal Molli, Full Professor at University of Nantes and Head of GDD team at LINA

  • Web 2.0 is currently producing a huge amount of information. Continuously transforming this information into knowledge is a major challenge for the research community. Automated reasoning or collective intelligence are currently two representative approaches to transform content into knowledge. The Kolflow project proposes to extend collective intelligence with smart agents relying on automated reasoning. Smart agents can significantly reduce the overhead of communities in the process of continuously building knowledge. Consequently, continuous knowledge building is much more efficient. Kolflow aims at building a social semantic space where humans collaborate with smart agents in order to produce knowledge understandable by humans and machines. Humans are able to understand the actions of smart agents. Smart agents are able to understand actions of humans. Kolflow targets the co-evolution of content and knowledge as the result of interactions of humans and machines.

ANR STREAMS (2010-2013)

  • The STREAMS project is a 3-years research project taking place between 2010-2013, founded by French National Agency for Research (ANR), program ARPEGE. Participants in the project include: ASAP project-team (University of Rennes 1 / Inria Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique), CASSIS project-team (Inria Nancy - Grand Est / University of Lorraine), GDD team (University of Nantes), REGAL project-team (Inria Paris - Rocquencourt / LIP6), SCORE team (University of Lorraine / Inria Nancy - Grand Est), XWiki SAS company. The project coordinator is Gérald Oster from University of Lorraine / LORIA / Inria Nancy Grand Est.

  • STREAMS project proposes to design peer-to-peer solutions that offer underlying services required by real-time social web applications and that eliminate the disadvantages of centralised architectures. These solutions are meant to replace a central authority-based collaboration with a distributed collaboration that offers support for decentralisation of services.

  • The ConcoRDanT is a 3-years research project taking place between 2010-2013, founded by French National Agency for Research (ANR), program ANR Blanc. The aim of the project is investigation on Commutative Replicated Data Types (CRDT), which guarantee (eventual) consistency, with no complex concurrency control and no rollback, and scale to large-scale distributed systems, such as P2P and Cloud systems.

ANR DISPLEXITY (2012-2016)

Distributed computation keep raising new questions concerning computability and complexity. For instance,

as far as fault-tolerant distributed computing is concerned, impossibility results do not depend on the compu-

tational power of the processes, demonstrating a form of undecidability which is signi.cantly di.erent from

the one encountered in sequential computing. In the same way, as far as network computing is concerned, the

impossibility of solving certain tasks locally does not depend on the computational power of the individual

processes.

The main goal of DISPLEXITY (for DIStributed computing: computability and ComPLEXITY) is to

establish the scienti.c foundations for building up a consistent theory of computability and complexity for

distributed computing.

Region PDL - (2011- dec 2014)

Distributed Infrastructure for Social Semantic Web. The objective is to propose models and systems for large scale data management. Infrastructure should be able to self-adapt to community needs. Systems should provide distributed system properties: scalability, performance, reliability and should handle dynamicity of social evolution of communities.

Former project

P2P WEB (2010-2012)

Pôle de compétitivité Images et Réseaux : Appel a projet PME région/OSEO

Porteur du projet : TMG

Responsable GDD : Patricia SERRANO ALVARADO, Maître de Conférences, LINA, Université de Nantes, Faculté de Sciences,

Responsable IVC : Benoit PARREIN, Maître de Conférences, Polytech Nantes

Site Web : https://sites.google.com/site/p2pweblina/

Le projet P2PWeb vise à combiner le paradigme du pair-à-pair (Peer to Peer) au traditionnel modèle client/serveur des applications Web pour tirer profit des avantages de ces deux architectures et lancer un premier pas vers un « Internet du futur ». Ce projet permettra d’accélérer et fluidifier l’accès à certains services très sollicités, notamment lors d’événements particuliers (manifestations sportives, festivités ...).
