<p>The Centre for Networked Intelligence inaugurated its latest networking lab housed at the Department of Electrical Communication Engineering of the Indian Institute of Science on Monday. </p>.<p>The lab, developed in collaboration with Cisco, has a network testbed which will enable researchers and students to develop applications, algorithms and experiments in emerging areas in communication and computer networking such as software-defined networking, network function virtualisation and network slicing. </p>.<p>The testbed is equipped with network control, management, and analytics platforms (Cisco DNAC centre), wireless controller, enterprise switches and routers, WiFi-6 access points and an identity management suite.</p>.<p>The Centre for Networked Intelligence, a recently established centre at IISc, is a Cisco CSR initiative to develop next-generation networking methodologies and concept solutions that can derive knowledge from evolved networks of the future.</p>.<p>Krishna Sundaresan, vice president, engineering, Cisco India and SAARC, said, “Through the Centre for Networked Intelligence, we aim to help students gain insight into a new generation of networking technologies and equip them with the tools and knowledge they need to experiment with and craft cutting-edge networking solutions.”</p>.<p>Prof Rajesh Sundaresan, convener, Centre for Networked Intelligence, said: “We are quite excited about the centre and its activities. The focus is not just on transporting data, but on creating useful and actionable knowledge from the data.”</p>.<p>He said that the centre’s goal is to create the intellectual capital and the engineering solutions for knowledge extraction and distributed decision making. </p>
