aerOS and SAFE-6G Co-organised Workshop

aerOS and SAFE-6G projects co-organized a workshop to share their technical activities and explore upcoming opportunities for collaboration. This joint effort provided a platform for both projects to exchange valuable insights, align their goals, and identify potential synergies. The workshop fostered a collaborative environment where participants could discuss advancements, share best practices, and plan future initiatives, strengthening the partnership between the aerOS and SAFE-6G.

SUPSI’s Summer School

Walter Quadrini from Politecnico di Milano had the chance on 10th of July to present aerOS project to master’s students that visited the MADE lab. The event took place in the context of SUPSI’s Summer School on the internet of Things.

NCSR “DEMOKRITOS” Summer School

The Front Research Group of NCSRD actively engaged researchers and postgraduate students in discussions about SAFE-6G objectives and 6G experimentation during the poster session of the event.

Dr. Harilaos Koumaras, head of FRONT Research Group and Leader of Athens 6G testbed, stated: “ We had the opportunity to share SAFE-6G’s vision for 6G experimentation with young researchers and postgraduate students, who need access to 6G experimentation testbeds for performing their research. SAFE-6G, as the pan-European federated B5G/6G experimentation facility, can meet this need by offering applied testing and experimentation.”

The event, which focused on Information Technology and Telecommunications, Nanotechnology and Modern Materials, and Energy, Environment, and Safety, provided a dynamic platform for researchers and postgraduate students to exchange insights, forge new partnerships, and explore cutting-edge innovations.

INFOLYSiS, an SME partner of the project, also participated in the SAFE-6G booth, communicating the importance of B5G/6G experimentation for building innovative services and products and explaining how SAFE-6G supports this through its federated open experimentation 6G testbeds.

Both teams engaged participants in in-depth discussions, highlighting the project’s transformative potential. The vibrant roll-up banner showcased technological advancements and our commitment to advancing the fields of communication, materials science, and environmental sustainability. The SAFE-6G communication was also complemented with project materials such as leaflets and stickers.

aerOS 8th Plenary Meeting

The 8th aerOS Plenary Meeting took place on 18 – 20 of June. The sessions were filled with enriching discussions on project tasks, engaging presentations on task issues, parallel technical meetings, and strategic planning for our next milestones. Our project manager shared administrative details, setting the stage for future initiatives. Participants also had the chance to visit our Pilot 2 premises, with special thanks to CloudFerro S.A. for hosting us. A big thank you to all participants and speakers for their incredible insights. We’re excited about what’s next for aerOS!

EMPOWERING 6G NETWORKS: FIRST WORKSHOP ON ADVANCEMENTS IN RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES, ADAPTIVE FRAMEWORKS AND GLOBAL ARCHITECTURAL EVOLUTION (ATHENA 2024)

The IEEE International Workshop on Computer Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD) 2024 invites researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to submit their original contributions to the workshop titled “Empowering 6G Networks: Workshop on Advancements in Research Infrastructures, Adaptive Frameworks, and Global Architectural Evolution.”

Workshop Scope:

The “Empowering 6G Networks” workshop, to be held at IEEE CAMAD 2024, is dedicated to exploring the vast potential of 6G technology and its impact on the future of communication. This workshop aims to serve as a crucible for innovative ideas, research findings, and discussions that will shape the trajectory of 6G development. The scope of this workshop encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, each pivotal to the realization of 6G’s promise.

At the core of the workshop’s scope is the advancement of research infrastructures. This includes the development of testbeds and simulation environments that mirror the complexity of real-world 6G scenarios. Such infrastructures are essential for validating the theoretical models and practical applications that will underpin 6G networks. They also provide a foundation for cross-disciplinary collaboration, bringing together experts in telecommunications, computer science, electrical engineering, and other fields to push the boundaries of what is possible.

Adaptive frameworks are another critical aspect of the workshop’s focus. As 6G networks will need to be inherently flexible to accommodate a wide range of applications and services, these frameworks will explore how networks can self-organize, heal, and optimize themselves in response to dynamic conditions. This includes the use of AI and machine learning to predict and respond to network demands, as well as the development of algorithms that can dynamically allocate resources in real-time.

The global architectural evolution of networks is also a central theme. The workshop will delve into how 6G networks can be architected to ensure seamless global connectivity, supporting the burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous systems, and smart cities. Discussions will cover the integration of terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks, the role of edge computing in reducing latency, and the use of blockchain and other distributed ledger technologies to secure and manage network transactions.

Topics of Interest:

The “Empowering 6G Networks” workshop will focus on the latest advancements in 6G network research infrastructures, adaptive frameworks, and the evolution of global network architecture. This workshop will serve as a platform for discussing the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in the journey towards realizing the full potential of 6G networks.

Submission Guidelines:

Authors are encouraged to submit high-quality, original work that has not been previously published. Submissions should be formatted according to the IEEE conference template and submitted through the EDAS submission portal. Detailed instructions and submission deadlines will be provided on the IEEE CAMAD 2024 website.

Important Dates:

  • Paper Submission Deadline: 30/6/2024
  • Acceptance Notification: 15/7/2024
  • Camera-Ready Submission: 22/7/2024
