aerOS project at Horizon Europe Info Day

The European Commission invites stakeholders from industry, academia and innovators to participate in the Horizon Europe Info Day on 30 January 2023. This event is an Information Session on the Horizon Europe Work Programme 2023-2024 on “World leading data and computing technologies”.

The open and FREE half-day virtual event will introduce three calls under Destination 3:

  • HORIZON-CL4-2023-DATA-01-07: Collaboration with NSF on fundamental research on new concepts for distributed computing and swarm intelligence (CSA)
  • HORIZON -CL4-2023-DATA-01-04: Cognitive Computing Continuum: Intelligence and automation for more efficient data processing (RIA)
  • HORIZON -CL4-2023-DATA-01-06: Coordination and Support of Cognitive Computing Continuum research and policy (CSA)

aerOS will be presented during the “MetaOS and Swarm projects” slot at 15:00 CET.

EUCloudEdgeIoT Open Source

Open Source Software (OSS) is already at the core of modern Cloud Computing and Big Data infrastructure and is rapidly gaining ground at all levels of the Internet of Things. From a European perspective, a solid consensus (now corroborated by systematic studies and official EC policy directions) has formed around the critical role of OSS and Open Source Hardware for multiple European objectives, from GDP growth to digital autonomy.

aerOS in EUCloudEdgeIoT association

aerOS is an active member of the EUCloudEdgeIoT association utilizing the resources on the edge-to-cloud computing continuum for enabling applications in an effective manner while incorporating multiple services.

Data is the heart of an IoT system, and with the proliferation of IoT devices, more than 500 zettabytes of data will be generated by 2025. Edge computing techniques allow these data to be processed locally, reduce security risks by data transmission to the clouds, enable real-time analysis, and offer greater privacy – such as helping organisations to take safe and reliable decisions at the point of interest. The Edge Computing paradigm will spur the next wave of Innovation of decentralised intelligence by optimising operations in a broad section of industries like mobility, farming, home/buildings, energy, logistics and manufacturing, and by mastering increasing volumes of data in their green and digital transition. These trends call for a shift towards the technical and business convergence of the Cloud, Edge and IoT domains, paving the way to a computing continuum and embedding topics like cognitive cloud and open source, which require both research and application perspectives and a strong cooperation among the two. In this context, EUCloudEdgeIoT.eu aims to realise a pathway for the understanding and development of the CEI Continuum by promoting cooperation between a wide range of research projects, developers and suppliers, business users and potential adopters of this new technological paradigm. It will do so by contributing to the coordination of a portfolio of projects in the CEI Computing Continuum funded under the Meta-Operating Systems for the Next Generation IoT and Edge Computing and ensuring consistent exploitation of their outcomes to help regain European competitiveness in core internet infrastructures.The initiative was preliminarily presented at the IoT week in Dublin in June 2022. The ultimate goal is to support the definition of the large-scale pilots envisaged by the European Commission in line with the EU Data Strategy. Future calls and projects on similar topics awarded by the EU Commission as part of the 2023- 2024 workplan will also be included in the cluster of projects cooperating under the European Cloud, Edge & IoT Continuum.

aerOS in NGIoT association

aerOS project is member of the Next Generation Internet of Things – NGIoT ecosystem. You may learn more about NGIoT organisation here: https://www.ngiot.eu/

The Next Generation Internet of Things (NGIoT) initiative is a growing community of projects and related initiatives at work to maximise the power of IoT made in Europe. NGIoT works to lower the barrier for adoption and development of IoT-empowered solutions, by supporting business models, innovation and skills. In a “network of network” ecosystem, NGIoT consists of ongoing projects and upcoming funding opportunities at work for a human-centric and sustainable digital transition. NGIoT projects are working to achieve H2020 goals while Horizon Europe will bring new opportunities to launch research and innovation projects across Europe and beyond. NGIoT works in close collaboration with related technology networks including cloud, Edge, Artificial Intelligence, 5G telecommunications networks and services, cybersecurity and blockchain. In complex IoT scenarios, people are becoming an essential part of interconnected cyber-physical systems. End users are both benefiting from connected devices and appliances as well as generating data which reinforces the effectiveness of IoT. Europe is leading the way to ensure the development and adoption of trusted and sustainable IoT that in combination with other advanced technologies can drive the digital and green transformation of our society and economy, across areas such as manufacturing, energy, agriculture, smart cities, mobility, retail and health care. The NGIoT is sharing best practices and building a growing and on-the-move ‘network of networks’ for knowledge and technology transfer, at the intersection of different research and innovation communities and industrial-driven initiatives.

aerOS Workshop on State of the Art and Market Analysis

The aerOS Workshop on State of the Art and Market Analysis took place virtually on November 29th. The main scope of the workshop is the presentation of “State of the Art and Market Analysis” survey, results. The workshop was divided in two parts:

  1. Report on the results of the activities planned in T2.1
  2. Q&A and open discussion

The results of this questionnaire will be presented extensively into Deliverable 2.1, Chapter .

aerOS project in TRA 2022 Conference

Ignacio Lacalle from UPV presented aerOS project in the TRA 2022 at the stand of the European Commission. The 2022 TRA version took place in Lisbon, Portugal. TRA, the Transport Research Arena, is the largest European research and technology conference on transport and mobility. TRA is the foremost European transport event that covers all transport modes and all aspects of mobility. In 2022, TRA takes place in Lisbon, Portugal. Themed “Moving together – reimagining mobility worldwide”, TRA2022 brings together experts from around the world to discuss the newest innovations and future of mobility and transport, building also on the Portuguese historical legacy and links to overseas transport professionals.
