Abstract

One describes how 4WARD processes, concepts and technologies can be used and applied as to provide a suitable network architecture to support a futuristic business scenario. One describes the actors and the network environment of a futuristic business scenario, the ‘AdHoc Community’, which is followed by an analysis and extraction of a set of non-technical business-related requirements. Those are further analyzed and then mapped onto a set of technical requirements. The Design Process is then followed in order to derive a suitable network architecture made up of components and interfaces, which can be deployed into a physical network infrastructure. At the end, a discussion on design options is provided, as well as a comparison with a solution based on existing technologies.
