Abstract :
The Joint Research Activity 3 of the European project GN2 aims to specify and develop a prototype for a Bandwidth on Demand service destined to operate in a multi-domain environment using heterogeneous transmission technologies. This paper reviews the project´s key achievements (general architecture and early prototyping results) and reports on current research and development areas (abstract network description, technology stitching and path finding) with a particular focus on inter-domain issues.
