The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) and the related architecture form a proposal to change the TCP/IP stack to better support mobility and multi-homing. Additionally, they provide for enhanced security and privacy and advanced network concepts, such as moving networks and mobile ad hoc networks. The InfraHIP project studies application-related aspects of HIP, including APIs, rendezvous service, operating system security, multiple end-points within a single host, process migration, and issues related to enterprise-level solutions.

Fuego Core is the core project of the Future Internet research program at HIIT. The current project is scheduled to run for three years, from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2007, and is a continuation of the work on future mobility middleware began in 2002. The project focuses on five areas in fundamental mobility middleware: XML processing and messaging, mobile distributed event system, XML synchronization and data access, software configuration management, and desktop search.

This is a TEKES project in collaboration with VTT. Our project partners are ICT-Turku, Suunto and TeliaSonera.

DRAMA - Scenario Methods for User-Centered Product Concept Design (UCPCD) is a multidisciplinary research project, in which UCPCD’s scenario-based working methodology and process are reinforced with methods of devised theatre. The ultimate goal is to make the human voice loud and clear in the new product development to create humane products. This is achieved by improving current working methods, tools, and processes.
