Cooperative Infrastructure Platform for Delivering Mission-critical Services

To solve various social problems, we are researching the integration of network and computing technologies as social infrastructure. The Cooperative Infrastructure Platform being researched and developed at NTT Network Service Systems Laboratories is introduced in this article.
