Abstract: The project CONTENT proposes a next generation ubiquitous converged infrastructure to support Cloud and mobile Cloud computing services. The proposed infrastructure facilitates interconnection of fixed and mobile end users with computational resources through a heterogeneous network integrating optical metro and wireless access networks. In this paper, we present the CONTENT converged network infrastructure and layered architecture which deploys cross-domain virtualization as a key technology. In accordance to the CONTENT proposal this paper also presents a novel virtual infrastructure planning scheme that takes a holistic approach considering jointly the network and computational resources.
