PII participates at the conference "FIRE and Living Labs – Future Internet by the people" which is held in association with the Swedish EU presidency in autumn 2009 where two strong communities meet and exchange experiences: The FIRE community focusing on Future Internet Research and Experimentation and the Living Labs community with the mission to engage people, users as co-creators in the development of new successful products and services.

The conference and the workshops are open to everybody interested in research on Future Internet in the world, and in particular to SAC, FIRE and FIA (Future Internet Assembly) members.

During the Eureka Celtic event that was held in Paris on 11-12 March 2009, the visitors had the opportunity to see a live demonstration of on-demand tesbed provisioning capabilities. At the exhibition space, PII participants from Germany and Greece showed how a testbed, spanning multiple networks, was enriched by dynamically adding desired functionality, by simply deploying needed components via the Teagle portal.

The Teagle portal allows the customer to look-up and dynamically deploy selected testbed configurations and testbed functionality.
