About INRIA
INRIA, the national institute for research in computer science and control, is dedicated to fundamental and applied research in information and communication science and technology (ICST). Throughout its six research centres located in seven major regions (Aquitaine, Bretagne, Lorraine, Île-de-France, Nord Pas de Calais, Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur, Rhône-Alpes), the Institute has a workforce of 3,700, 2,900 of whom are scientists from INRIA and its partner organizations. INRIA has an annual budget of 162 million euros, 20% of which comes from its own research contracts and development products.
INRIA develops many partnerships with industry and fosters technology transfer and company foundation in the field of ICST - some eighty companies have been founded. Startups are financed in particular by INRIA-Transfert, a subsidiary of INRIA that supports four startup funds.
The international collaborations are based on an incentive strategy of welcoming and recruiting foreign students as well as developing strong exchanges between research scientists. Priority is given to geographic zones with strong growth: Europe, Asia and North America while maintaining reasonable cooperation with South America, Africa and Middle-East.

ADAM project-team
ADAM is a joint project-team between
Laboratoire d'Informatique Fondamentale de Lille (LIFL) (joint unit between
CNRS and l'
Université des Sciences et Technologies de Lille) and the
INRIA Futurs research center located in Lille.
The ADAM (Adaptive Distributed Applications and Middleware) project-team deals with the concepts and tools for the adaptation of applications and middleware in distributed multi-scale environments. Its works are based on advanced software engineering techniques such as CBSE (Component-Based Software Engineering), AOSD (Aspect-Oriented Software Development) or CAC (Context-Aware Computing).
In the context of the SCOrWare project, ADAM is strongly involved in the design and implementation of the runtime platform for SCA applications and more specifically on the Tinfi runtime kernel, the SCA assembly factory, and the deployment of SCA-based distributed systems.

SARDES project-team
The overall goal of the SARDES (Architecture of Reflexive Systems for Distributed Environments ) project is to investigate the construction of distributed software infrastructures (operating system and middleware) to support global computing. Global computing is concerned with a projected environment in which processors will be everywhere and will be interconnected by a diverse array of networks, from ad-hoc pico networks to the global Internet.
In this large scale, open, highly heterogeneous and highly dynamic context, the SARDES project aims to develop dependable and highly adaptable software infrastructures, by systematically leveraging component-based and reflective programming techniques.
In the context of the SCOrWare project, SARDES is involved in the design and implementation of a SCA binding factory.

ObjectWeb @ INRIA
OW@INRIA is involved in middleware research, and as a development team, aims at improving and accelerating the transfer from the academic institutions and R&D teams towards the industry, by developing collaborations and partnerships with the industry, (large, medium and small enterprises), R&D and software organizations and consortia from Europe and worldwide. The goal is to accelerate the understanding and the reuse of R&D work and software, primarily transferred via the Open Source channel and integrating the Open Source into the Real World and the market, in collaboration with the OW2 Consortium (for more information:
http://www.ow2.org).
Our proposal is an innovative process for designing and integrating information systems in a concurrent approach using the SOA and BPM concepts at the highest level. The following main pillars support our positioning and process:
- Expertise in SOA and BPM - SCA/JBI standards, service orchestration and business process/workflow, monitoring, management and governance of frameworks, modelling (BPM, MDA), tooling for design, monitoring and management
- New holistic approach, methods and tools for innovation management
- Developing and providing concurrent innovation platforms for in-depth collaboration
- Capitalizing on Open Source in close collaboration with OW2 and other organizations (e.g. Eclipse)
- Providing an alternative way for the transfer from the research to the industry, business and market
