AIOTI Days 2025 took place on 22–23 September 2025 in Madrid, at the Colegio de Aparejadores. The conference brought together thematic sessions, project presentations, and the second edition of the scientific conference GIECS, all under the overarching theme of Cities 5.0 — exploring how AI, continuum computing and virtual twins can foster human-centric, sustainable, and intelligent urban living. It also featured sessions on green ICT, standardisation, collaboration across domains, and showcased EU-funded projects from sectors such as 5G/6G, IoT, AI, smart cities and more. At OpenSource Community Day 2025, aerOS showcased how open source is powering the future of computing! Our Meta Operating System spans the full spectrum—from IoT & edge to cloud—presented by Rafael Vaño Garcia at AIOTI DAYS 2025.

The aerOS use case aims to demonstrate its architecture in the Smart Buildings market by optimising enterprise efficiency and safety through process and data autonomy and self-orchestrated IoT ecosystems, enhancing the energy efficiency of large buildings with real-time processing and frugal AI, and extending capabilities via 5G, NFV, and Network Apps. Expected benefits will be derived from intelligent aerOS nodes that enable autonomous, decentralised decision-making at the edge, while its unique abstraction approach bridges heterogeneity in data and platforms to orchestrate sensors, systems, and analytics across the IoT edge-cloud continuum. In Scenario 1 – Intelligent Occupational Safety and Health, aerOS will be integrated into the IoT ecosystem of a COSMOTE corporate building in Athens to monitor energy, luminosity, CO₂, humidity, temperature, motion detection, and desk occupancy, using embedded analytics and real-time/historical data to inform clustering and seating of employees, while actuation of ventilation, heating/cooling, and lighting systems with edge intelligence and frugal AI will ensure decentralised, secure, and low-latency management of office conditions for health and efficiency. In Scenario 2 – Cybersecurity and Data Privacy in Building Automation, COSMOTE will deploy aerOS cybersecurity components for authentication, authorisation, data governance, ownership, and sharing, alongside 5G, VNF, and potentially NetApps for executing security and privacy functions; video identification for safety will be supported by anonymisation and secure storage mechanisms. Driven by COSMOTE, NCSRD, FOGUS, INFOLYSIS, and UPV, this use case will showcase the energy-efficient, sustainable, flexible, and health-safe potential of aerOS in a real-world deployment and validation within COSMOTE’s enterprise office building in Athens, Greece.

“Dependency-Aware Microservice Deployment for Edge Computing: A Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach With Network Representation” Paper

/0 Comments/in /by

The popularity of microservices in industry has sparked much attention in the research community. Despite significant progress in microservice deployment for resource-intensive services and applications at the network edge, the intricate dependencies among microservices are often overlooked, and some studies underestimate the importance of system context extraction in deployment strategies. This paper addresses these issues by formulating the microservice deployment problem as a max-min problem, considering system cost and quality of service (QoS) jointly. We first study the attention-based microservice representation (AMR) method to achieve effective system context extraction. In this way, the contributions of different computing power providers (users, edge servers, or cloud servers) in the networks can be effectively paid attention to. Subsequently, we propose the attention-modified soft actor-critic (ASAC) algorithm to tackle the microservice deployment problem. ASAC leverages attention mechanisms to enhance decision-making and adapt to changing system dynamics. Our simulation results demonstrate ASAC’s effectiveness, prioritizing average system cost and reward compared to the other state-of-the-art algorithms.
