It developed from an early focus on the engineering method of concurrent engineering\, to general organisation of the engineering process and its organisation within the corporation and in networks. Concurrency obviously addresses parallelisation of activities in time\, but it comes with the broadening of decision making on what is wanted and how services and products ought to be. This is not decided by technical criteria alone\, but includes usability\, economic\, environmental\, and social criteria. The ICE conference therefore discusses systems engineering as a socio-technical task with a focus on design of products and services\, and the entrepreneurial innovation process for its adoption in society and economy. \nThe 30th ICE IEEE/ITMC Conference (ICE 2024) will be hosted by UNINOVA in Madeira Island\, Portugal\, being part of the Madeira Digital Transformation Week. For this upcoming event we would like to signal to our growing community of researchers\, innovators\, industrialists and engineers to share their insights (practitioner\, industrial and academic)\, practices\, projects and case studies that address the conference theme\, “Digital Transformation on Engineering\, Technology and Innovation.” \nLearn more URL:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/event/ice-event-30th-edition/ CATEGORIES:Conferences,Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Screenshot_1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20240628 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20240629 DTSTAMP:20260501T181937 CREATED:20240430T081253Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240430T081253Z UID:13977-1719532800-1719619199@eucloudedgeiot.eu SUMMARY:1st Open-Source RISC-V Software Workshop DESCRIPTION:History teaches us that any new hardware without good and widely-used software on top has no future. Countless examples exist even from the biggest manufacturers (e.g. Intel Itanium\, IBM Cell\, …) without even considering competition (e.g Sun Microsystems’s Ultrasparcs\, Digital’s Alphas\, HP’s …). Regardless of the nostalgia and to ensure RISC-V is successful beyond small controllers\, software and -specially- widely used software suites require the focus now to avoid repeating the errors of the past. \nThis workshop is born to bring together all the researchers and developers in the open-source software arena to showcase their developments and establish collaborations. This community can provide efficiently and effectively the necessary software in the different application areas where RISC-V can be deployed. \nThis workshop focuses on software. From hardware simulators/emulators\, through OSes/toolchains\, to applications and software stacks. A special focus will be devoted to open-source and collaborative projects. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizers:\nRamon Canal\, Beatriz Otero (UPC)\nStefano Di Carlo (POLITO)\nManolis Marazakis (FORTH) \nProgram Committee:\nDimitris Gizopoulos (UoA)\nJuan José Costa (UPC)\nAaron Call (BSC)\nManolis Marazakis (FORTH) \nLearn more URL:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/event/1st-opensource-riscv-workshop/ CATEGORIES:Conferences,Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/risc-v-workshop.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20240702T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20240702T170000 DTSTAMP:20260501T181937 CREATED:20240627T130652Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240627T130955Z UID:14618-1719936000-1719939600@eucloudedgeiot.eu SUMMARY:OSS and Business Model: Zettascale DESCRIPTION:Open Source has gone a long way and arguably it is at the foundations of today’s software infrastructures.

IoT and edge computing will play a significant role in the future of our businesses\, economy and society\, especially while keeping data at the edge and taking decisions at a local level. This gives us an advantage in global emergencies like the energy crisis\, or natural disasters caused by climate change. Creating this CEI environment—a computing continuum of data collection\, storage and processing from edge to cloud—will be an essential component of a globally competitive\, secure and dynamic data-agile economy in Europe. Europe has the opportunity to shape this technological paradigm and creates its role as a key player in the worldwide CEI ecosystem and further progress towards digital autonomy and economic resiliency. \nTo seize the opportunity\, it is crucial to tackle central open points for the edge paradigm shift. While\, on one hand\, collaborative work is needed in terms of a common CEI reference architecture\, identification of relevant open-source building blocks and common use of an edge taxonomy\, there is also the crucial need to fully understand the needs and requirements of European industrial adopters\, the evolution of a European CEI ecosystem and industrial market trends to ensure the alignment of technological solutions with the economic opportunities. The formation of an integrated European CEI value chain where there is an established dialogue among the key stakeholders (technology providers\, infrastructure providers\, system integrators\, end-users\, etc.) is an important step to facilitate this edge paradigm shift.

The nodes in swarm compose a self-organized radio network\, providing precise time and position references without additional infrastructures like GPS or base stations. Each node is additionally equipped with environmental sensors\, for example a photonic sensor to sense the illumination in caves beneath the lunar surface\, a hydrogen sulfide sensor to explore the volcanic activities\, or a methane sensor to track organic traces. More importantly\, the swarm has a unique capability of formation optimization. Hence\, nodes collaboratively choose their trajectories\, so that the spatial-temporal information is gathered most efficiently. \nAt the German Aerospace Center (DLR)\, we design compact and portable nodes with ultra-wideband (UWB) technology for decentralized timing\, position and environmental sensing. These nodes can be easily carried or deployed by robots and are thus suitable for technology demonstrations in space-analog missions. These nodes are also served as educational platforms\, assisting high school through doctoral students to gain intuitions and in-depth knowledge in signal processing for communications\, localization\, decentralized estimation\, sensor fusion\, etc. \nIn this webinar\,  Dr. Zhang will start with the fundamentals of swarm localization and sensing\, then present the building steps of a swarm system\, and finally showcase the usage of the swarm in DLR’s space-analog missions\, for example on volcanos and in lava caves. \nRegister here \n\n\n  URL:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/event/swarm-localization-sensing-webinar/ CATEGORIES:Events,Webinars ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/ieee-webinar.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20241021 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20241024 DTSTAMP:20260501T181937 CREATED:20240530T153425Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240530T153425Z UID:14319-1729468800-1729727999@eucloudedgeiot.eu SUMMARY:1st Workshop on advancements in research infrastructures\, adaptive frameworks\, and global architectural evolution DESCRIPTION:The aerOS project is proud to support the inaugural Workshop on Advancements in Research Infrastructures\, Adaptive Frameworks\, and Global Architectural Evolution (Athena 2024)\, held in conjunction with IEEE CAMAD.

Intelligently balancing tasks in a continuum enables faster response times\, lower latency\, and more efficient use of network bandwidth. However\, efficiently managing extremely heterogeneous Cloud and Edge resources is a pressing concern in real-world large-scale implementations. Such heterogeneity refers to differences in network capabilities\, processing power\, software stack\, APIs\, and security protocols across the Cloud-Edge Continuum infrastructure. This raises significant challenges for the network community to develop new and efficient protocols and communication services. Given the potential benefits of the Cloud-Edge Continuum\, it is important to explore the current state-of-the-art research and identify the challenges and opportunities in this area. \nThe Cloud-Edge Continuum (CEC) workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to discuss the latest research\, trends\, and challenges in ecosystems and environments based on Cloud-Edge Continuum paradigm. The primary goal of this workshop is to foster collaboration and exchange of ideas among researchers and stakeholders. The workshop can provide a platform for participants to share their experiences\, best practices\, case studies\, and to identify emerging research areas and potential solutions to existing challenges. By bringing together experts from different domains\, the CEC workshop also aims to provide insights into how Cloud-Edge Continuum can be applied in various fields\, such as healthcare\, transportation\, smart cities\, and manufacturing. \nTOPICS (not limited to) \nWe welcome submissions of original research\, work-in-progress\, and proof of concepts describing original ideas and presenting new directions.

By fostering the development of scalable\, federated\, and secure cloud infrastructures\, emerging initiatives such as the Important Project of Common European Interest on Next Generation Cloud Infrastructure and Services (IPCEI-CIS) and the CISERO project aim to position Europe at the forefront of global digital advancements\, ensuring the continent’s leadership in emerging technologies that underpin the Digital Decade policy and overall sustainability goals. \nIn this context\, several actions have been launched. An example is the UNLOCK-CEI project\, one of the CSAs coordinating the EUCloudEdgeIoT initiative\, as it represents a crucial link between the current state of the art of cloud\, edge\, and IoT technologies in the EU’s framework. UNLOCK-CEI recently held its final event\, providing a comprehensive mapping of the state-of-the-art demand & supply of cloud-edge-IoT applications. More recently\, the CISERO project has been launched to support the successful implementation of IPCEI-CIS actions\, facilitating collaboration among EU member states\, industry leaders\, and research organisations. Its mission is to coordinate resources\, provide technical support\, and build a robust business ecosystem to ensure the widespread adoption of cloud and edge computing solutions.  \nThis event aims\, on one side\, to bring insights from the demand market of Cloud-Edge-IoT and\, on the other side\, to investigate how the joint efforts of Member States and industries through IPCEI-CIS projects can create its path towards the market. As a result\, this event will discuss the key results of UNLOCK-CEI\, which are synergistic with CISERO’s goals. These include key trends\, market pathways\, frameworks\, tools\, and methodologies developed throughout the project. Moreover\, considering the strategic role of AI in the CEI ecosystem (from a solutions perspective\, market perspective and ecosystem players’ perspective)\, there will be a panel discussion to focus on specific applications of AI on the computing continuum (in particular\, AI at the edge) where pitches will be provided by the EU-funded projects working on the topic. \nThese outputs will be particularly valuable for CISERO\, offering preliminary recommendations to address the challenges of cloud and edge integration and highlighting key remaining gaps. The legacy of UNLOCK-CEI could serve as a foundational element for creating the CISERO’s sustainability roadmap\, which will support the IPCEI-CIS work in ensuring widespread adoption of next-generation technologies and cloud-to-edge solutions across Europe.\n \n\n\nAgenda\nModerator: Claudio de Majo – Trust-IT Services\, Italy \n15:00 Welcome and webinar introduction \n15:05 Introducing the CISERO project in the IPCEI-CIS context – Matthias Kuom/Sophia Herlmrich DLR Projektträger\, Germany \n15:15 Navigating computing continuum: Demand market insights\, dynamics and opportunities– Golboo Pourabdollahian – IDC\, Italy \n15:35 Panel discussion “Edge AI for Europe’s Cloud and Edge Future” – insights from EU-funded projects \n\nAI REDGIO 5.0\nManolo\nPandora\n\n16:00 Q&A \n16:10 Conclusion \nRegistration available here. \n\n\n  URL:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/event/joint-webinar-cisero-market-insights/ CATEGORIES:EUCEI Event,Events,Task Forces,TF5,TF6,Webinars ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://eucloudedgeiot.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/cisero-unlock-joint-banner.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20241126T090000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Zurich:20241127T180000 DTSTAMP:20260501T181937 CREATED:20241025T080351Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241104T090437Z UID:15265-1732611600-1732730400@eucloudedgeiot.eu SUMMARY:Joint Workshop on Cross-Domain Standardisation and Architecture for Edge Computing DESCRIPTION:Date: 26 November 2024 09:00 – 27 November 2024 18:00\n\n\n\n\nLocation: Brussels & Online\n\n\n\nCEI-Sphere and INSTAR are hosting a Joint Workshop on Standardisation and Architecture for Edge Computing.

Flexible assets such as electric vehicles\, heat pumps\, solar panels\, residential batteries etc.\, will link the energy sector to mobility and living to benefit from affordable green electricity and reduce its carbon footprint. At the core of the AI-driven age\, secure and trusted methods will be required to safely integrate energy flows across different sectors and allow different energy assets to interact with the grid in a trusted manner. \nThe objective of the workshop is to address trusted and seamless data exchange across different sectors and explore aspects like ID management\, distributed ledger\, digital wallet\, SSI and edge computing for key applications that are piloted through the pilot project O_CEI\,  like smart building\, Ev charging\, etc… Core of the discussion will be to identify key enablers for a secure approach that enables identity-related information to be safely verified and exchanged between different parties\, extending from current industrial initiatives for building a mature technology base to piloting IoT platforms and decentralised intelligence applications. In this context\, it seems promising to explore the role Blockchain and other Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT; like Ethereum\, IOTA\, Hyperledger and others) could play in underpinning such systems of fully or at least largely decentralised identification. \nThe EU-funded O-CEI project will pilot cutting-edge solutions to drive cross-domain standards for flexible energy solutions by orchestrating cross-domain data sharing\, minimising energy footprint\,  and promoting open standards for virtualisation and interoperability. It targets the adoption of edge paradigms and technologies in real-world environments in areas like electromobility\, software-defined vehicles\, logistics\, smart agriculture and agri-food\, smart urban environments and multiple electricity grids management. \nThe focus of the workshop should be on related application scenarios across sectors \, the underlying ID and data governance and its potential use of distributed ledge technologies  – with an unwavering commitment to preserve people’s sovereignty. \n\nTO LEARN MORE AND REGISTER\, CLICK HERE!
