[Project Name] VITRO [Home Page] www.vitro-fp7.eu [Short Description] 
The project is focused on developing architectures, algorithms and engineering methods, which will enable the realization of scalable, flexible, adaptive, energy-efficient and trust-aware Virtual Sensor Networking (VSN) platforms. To achieve this objective, VITRO enabled platforms will provide a homogeneous abstract appearance to enable federated collaboration with external entities (from objects and systems to domains and networks) simplify the discovery and management of the underlying hardware and software resources of large collections of heterogeneous smart objects, and scalable inter-objects collaboration. Although VITRO aims to be application-neutral, the proposed architecture and protocol toolbox will be validated through extensive simulation testing and furthermore implemented in a large trial of more than 500 sensor nodes.
