A big EU project doing research for future cloud computing platforms (2010 to 2013). This is my main task at Deutsche Welle Innovation Projects.

Interesting partners (IBM Haifa, SAP, Siemens, Telefonica, France Telecom, RAI), interesting goals: VISION Cloud is my main project right now. Kick-off was in October 2010, in Israel, project duration is three years.
