Network

None of these advances will be possible without a network to run them. This network will evolve toward advanced connectivity: from the user’s point of view, this will make it possible to access services without worrying about what type of connection is available, and without even knowing when the device is connecting to or disconnecting from the Internet. These networks will have to interconnect and be interoperable.

This will involve providing ubiquitous, transparent broadband that will bring together various technologies and carrying out all tasks necessary in order for this connection to be transparent and apparently simple. These networks will be self-organising and self-repairing (Autonomic and Zero-touch) and require little or no human intervention.

Network

Networks will need to provide large-scale access, as well as additional characteristics in order to support the new services run on them. To this end, it is thought that they will evolve toward all-optical networks. The end product will be a network that supports everything connected to the Internet of the Future, a system that will be set up with open service platforms permitting agents from the real economy to build mass services for society on the network, services which evolve through a philosophy of open innovation to add value to our ways of living and working.

 The network is the key to making Internet of the Future become reality
