About us

FIREworks is Specific Support Action funded from FP7 Call 2, Objective 1.6 “New paradigms and experimental facilities” with EC contribution of 790.000 €.

The FIREworks Support Action coordinates and supports interworking of testbed activities in Europe and their respective connections outside of Europe, mainly to North America and Far East.

FIRE Future Internet Research and Experimentation is an initiative under the ICT theme of EU Framework Programme 7. Projects selected under Call 2 - Objective 1.6 “New Paradigms and Experimental Facilities” are the first step under FP7 towards building FIRE. The initiative has two related dimensions: Building a European Experimental Facility for Future Internet research, and supporting experimentally-driven advanced research, which defines the challenges for and takes advantage of the dynamically evolving facility.
