Introduction: The FIA Research Roadmap, Priorities for Future Internet Research

We describe the key findings of the Future Internet Assembly Research Roadmap for Framework Programme 8, which captures the ideas and contributions of the FIA community on the important research topics that should be addressed in future funding programmes. The findings of the roadmap have been produced through an open consultation of research projects who participate in FIA. It is primarily concerned with identifying research that can be carried out in the second half of this decade and which will have an impact in 2020 and beyond. By ‘impact’ we mean will result in products, services, systems, capabilities, that come to market and are available and deployed in that timeframe.
