Abstract
Community Networks have been implemented for the last few years on several cities, most of them supported by local governments or by experimental projects. Portugal was not an exception and since the early 1990s some small-scale projects were deployed. By the end of 1998, the Portuguese government sponsored a new wave of community networks under the scope of the project ‘Digital Cities’, promoting the use of new technologies and the development of enhanced services for the citizen. The city of Aveiro was the first of a new generation of Digital Cities in Portugal. This paper describes, in detail, network implementation options for this community network, concerning both its core and access enabling technologies, as well as the services that are being provided, including description and architectures for each of the relevant ones.
