In the network management area, I am collaborating with Avaya product group on the realization of the NETCONF protocol based management interface for Avaya’s network devices. I am also implementing the next generation capabilities, such as J2EE-JCA complaint connector for of SNMP, for the Secure Service Delivery platform (SSDP). The SSDP is a J2EE-based Operations Support System (OSS) platform for remote management of customer networks. In the Identity management area, I am leading the projects related to federated identity for the management of web-centric computing infrastructure and proxy signature based delegated access and attribute certificate based distributed authorization enforcement. I am also leading the project related to the implementation of the smart card interfaces for EAP-SIM and WLAN-SIM specification in order to use single network identity for both GSM and 802.1x security protocols. |
