Hydra is affilliated with the following programs and organisations:

The Hydra coordinater FhG FIT is a member of ARTEMISIA, the association for R&D actors in the field of ARTEMIS: Advanced Research & Technology for EMbedded Intelligence and Systems.


The Hydra middleware allows developers to create inclusive applications with a high degree of accessibility for all. The Hydra project supports the Commissions campaign: eInclusion - be part of it!



The Hydra project is part of the Cluster of European projects on the Internet of Things. The Cluster aims to promote a common vision of the Internet of Things.


The Hydra project is co-funded by the European Commission within the Sixth Framework Programme in the area of Networked Embedded Systems under contract IST-2005-034891

Description:

In this project, a middleware named COGMA for mobile appliances was developed. It enables the easy development of cooperative applications among various kinds of appliances in mobile environment. The middleware is designed for:
  • Working not only on embedded device but also on note PC,
  • Dynamic reconfiguration of sensor or control devices, and cope with sudden power-on/off,
  • Cooperation of different kind of functional devices.

By virtue of dynamic code mobility based on mobile agent technology, on middleware enables the on-demand code installation. The middleware also has a logical network configuration tool. By using this tool, user can control/monitor the embedded device via GUI-terminal. COGMA system can utilize several kind of network links such as TCP/IP, and serial. On these links, the system can construct an ad-hoc network. Each device has information about its function. Devices on the same network exchange information about them to cooperate each other. In this project, we develop a SmartMeeting application. In this application, LCD projector, Note PC, and Light are controlled through SmartMeeting codget. By using this application, usability and feasibility of the middleware is exemplified.

Relevance to HYDRA:COGMA project offers the solution very similar to HYDRA design in several aspects.
