At the end of January, the OFERTIE and CityFlow projects ran a workshop on the topic of SDN Concertation, hosted at the European Commission. Many of the current and recently EU-funded SDN projects presented their research work and experiences.
The CityFlow project originally hosted the web page for this workshop. Below is a copy of the agenda for the day with links to the presentation given.
