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

SEINIT - Security Expert INITiative
The overall objective of the Security Expert INITiative (SEINIT) project is to ensure a trusted and dependable information security framework, ubiquitous, working across multiple devices, heterogeneous networks, being organisation independent (inter-operable) and centered around an end-user. SEINIT is exploring new information security models and building the architecture and components to address our nomadic, pervasive, multi-player communicating world. This new solution uses information gathered by ambient intelligence and then deals with the new threats this entails.

SWAMI - Safeguards in a World of Ambient Inteligence
SWAMI stands for Safeguards in a World of Ambient Intelligence. It is an FP6 funded IST project which has as its main objective to identify the social, legal, organizational and ethical implications related to issues such as privacy, anonymity, security and identity in the context of AmI. This has been achieved through the elaboration of 'dark scenarios' as a centre piece of the SWAMI project methodology. These are realistic future scenarios which highlight threats and vulnerabilities which are subsequently analyzed so as to extract useful options aimed at overcoming the identified possible risks.

RUNES - Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems
Its main objective is to design a middleware system that is adaptive and intelligently self-organizing. RUNES investigates and develops solutions for supporting applications and services running on heterogeneous architectures of networked embedded systems.

PRIME - Privacy and Identity Management for Europe
PRIME aims to develop a working prototype of a privacy-enhancing Identity Management System. To foster market adoption, novel solutions for managing identities will be demonstrated in challenging real-world scenarios, e.g., from Internet Communication, Airline and Airport Passenger Processes, Location-Based Services and Collaborative e-Learning.

SMEPP - Secure Middleware for Embedded Peer to Peer systems
The main objective of this project is to develop a new secure and generic middleware, based on a new network centric abstract model for EP2P systems. Important part of the project with the remarkable relevance to the HYDRA project is its ability to provide open interfaces of middleware, especially in case of security, trust and quality-based aspects.

OXYGEN - MIT Project Oxygen – Pervasive, human-centered computing
Oxygen enables pervasive, human-centered computing through a combination of specific user and system technologies.  Computational devices, called Enviro21s (E21s), can sense the user's presence in an environment.  Handheld devices, called Handy21s (H21s), helps to communicate and compute while the dynamic self-configuring networks (N21s) help the devices to locate each other as well as the people, services, and resources they want to reach.  The software which runs on these devices is programmed to adapt either to the changes in the environment or with respect to the user requirements (O2S).

PAW - Privacy in an Ambient World
PAW aimed at providing full privacy in an ambient world by developing privacy protection architecture.

SERENITY - System engineering for security and dependability
The project SERENITY aims at providing security and dependability in Ambient Intelligence systems. Main goal is to develop specifications, methods and a suite of tools ensuring dependability and security for future AmI solutions. The software results will be made available as open source.

SENSEI - Integrating the physical with the digital world of the network of the future
The aim of the SENSEI project is to create an open, business driven architecture that fundamentally addresses the scalability problems for a large number of globally distributed and heterogeneous wireless sensor and actuator networks (WS&AN) devices. WS&AN will be integrated into a common framework of global scale and made available to services and applications via universal service interfaces.
