Bristol Is Open
A Joint Venture between the University of Bristol and Bristol City Council
Digital city test-bed where an SDN-based Network Operating System (City OS) controls a programmable city infrastructure
www.bristol.ac.uk/smart 18
Bristol Is Open
• We built a research network integrating optical, wireless, IoT and computing to provide an open and experimental platform in the centre of Bristol
• We offer the test-bed as utility for experimentation: City Experimentation as a Service
• It supports City-driven digital innovation
• Three main technology pillars: • Technology agnostic
• SDN
• Open Hardware
