Internet of things (IoT) and edge computing are advancing, allowing the computing to be performed closer to where the data is produced and apply analytics for processing the data. Adding edge processing to resource-constrained IoT devices brings new security issues and requires innovation and optimisation at the hardware, software and connectivity levels. The session gives an overview of the IoT evolutionary concepts, and the presentations focus on the challenges related to leveraging the ...

As data becomes the new oil of the economy and a key asset to address societal challenges like mobility, energy, carbon-neutral cities and manufacturing, the EU must strive for a leading position in the data economy and cannot afford to have the data of its businesses, public sector and citizens stored and exploited from largely outside its borders. A strategy for on World-leading Data and Computing Technology is at the heart of the European policy strategy for

Digital technologies are unlocking new business opportunities and with that new business models. For example, we have seenservitization as a key concept changing a large number of industries from product to service driven businesses. This session will explore the next wave of business models enabled by IoT and combining this with edge computing. We will explore results from the H2020 Large Scale Pilot projects one of the largest investments by the EC in this field provide and mature examples ...

The IoT, edge and cloud computing technologies are likely to be global by design. A technology that is developed by focusing only the specific requirements of a regional market may face difficulties to be globally adopted. International collaboration allows researchers to exchange knowledge and combine perspectives to solve challenging problems, often of transversal nature. Nowadays, with a growing number of global challenges such as climate change, infectious diseases, energy and sustaina...

This session will explore different aspects of edge intelligence for industrial internet of things applications, including AI at the edge, human machine collaboration and cyber-security solutions for edge intelligence.

The farming industry is facing pressing challenges, as food security or getting water and energy management right. The arrival of IoT technology is completely redefining everything, from food production to the relationship between producers and consumers. On this ssession, we will learn how IoT is making the industry smarter, safer, more sustainable and more competitive through the power of data collection and analysis. Get inspired from vision talks by key stakeholders on the future of the E...

Introducing data spaces into society makes us designers of a new world exploiting the sharing of data in a totally new way. As designers, we need to know what we are doing, business activities will not be the same as before, business processes will be re-engineered, and new skills are necessary to build data ecosystems. This track will bring together leading initiatives that are paving the way for what could become functional implementations of European-governed data sharing spaces. We want t...

Between smart machines, at the low end, and artificial systems with own legal or even ethical status, at the high end - that is where Artificial Intelligence is being placed in the public discourse.There is much of uncertainty about chances and constraints, opportunities and limitation - but common sense of the large potential of industrial AI.To get the most out of it, good balance of high expectations and subtle concerns is worthwhile. This comes down to the trustworthiness...

Water is the source of life. While some parts of the world can access water easily and at an economical rate, others pray for water consumption on a daily basis as they face water scarcity regularly. This irregularity in the water supply is troubling numerous lives across the world and threatening the healthy life for our future generations. In such situations, immediate actions are required to be taken. Here, the Internet of Things (IoT) is a one-stop solution that has the capability of a...

The IPv6 Initiative at ETSI (3GPP) is attracting a very good number of players including ISPs/Vendor/Academia from Europe, US and Asia to work on:Identify gaps and recommendations of existing and required IPv6 standards both inside ETSI and in other SDOs;Identify and describe IPv6 Network related use cases & specific scenarios, derived requirements and IPv6 networking challenges in the following areas:

The expansion of the IoT and edge computing landscape has brought opportunities but also new challenges. Standards have an essential role in the IoT and edge computing systems. Having a roadmap of IoT standardization can enhance the technical issues that have to be addressed and resolved. The role of standardization in interoperability solutions is key, both by allowing a formalised support to various implementations, and by ensuring a consolidation of the options available so that the int...

Disclosing the key role of IoT in the so-called 4.0 revolution and how it is intertwined with other technologies that are going to fundamentally transform our world. We will also discuss about the key role of IoT, Edge IoT andAIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) for theIndustry 5.0 revolution.Pitch Title of Roberto Siagri: “Edge computing, Edge AI and the 5G Cloud matrix”

The data interoperability in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT) has several issues to be solved by the research community. For instance, the large amount of data, the numerous different data models and the data collection at high speed are key challenges to address by the different organizations working in the domain of IoT data interoperability. Different dimensions of IoT data interoperability exist like semantic interoperability, syntacticalinteroperability and the object abstr...

 Artificial intelligence and industrial internet of things, IIoT, are enablers for digitising industries. The progress in technology delivers more intelligence at the edge that empowers IIoT devices with smarter decision-making, high performance, low power processing, and built-in security to create more intelligent and adaptive industrial applications. This session aims to present the research and development results related to the deployment of AI technologies implemented in ...
