Federico M. Facca
Dr. Federico Michele Facca, Head of Martel Lab, joined Martel in January 2016. He is a strong advocate of Open Source solutions (e.g. OpenStack, Apache Hadoop, Kubernates, Docker, …) and his expertise covers Cloud computing architectures and their application to different fields, e.g. Big data, Internet of Things, Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure. Dr. Facca acted as Technical Manager and Chief Architect in different large ICT projects: COIN, Infinity, SemanticGov, SUperhub and XIFI.
He is among the core technical figures in the FIWARE programme, within which he successfully supervised a heterogeneous team of more than 60 engineers from different ICT companies and major European research centers (e.g. Telefonica, Thales, Engineering, etc.) contributing to the FIWARE Lab activities.
Previously, he worked as Area Head in CREATE-NET focusing on Cloud computing management solutions; before that he was Area Head and Institute Manager at STI Innsbruck, focusing on service-oriented architectures and service middlewares. Dr. Facca obtained his Ph.D. in Information Technology and his M.Sc in Computer Science at the Politecnico di Milano.

The evolution of the IoT into the Next-generation IoT will be marked by a series of technological advances which includes contextually aware and distributed intelligence, federated services and microservices, integration of DLTs and smart contracts, and tactile and AR interfaces among others. It is typified by the convergence between the cloud and Edge along the human-cloud computing continuum and is underpinned by the functionalities afforded by 5G networks.&nb...

The Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are heavily interwoven within every-day present life and tomorrow will impact even more. Predicting the next global tendency but need in society is key to IoT development.In a new Post-COVID era, IoT is accelerating and facilitating new trends such as home working, new mobility challenges and the digitalization of the economy. It also becomes more necessary for redesigning the new global supply chain, foster the collaboration and generate ne...

Pilot Demonstrators and Industrial Use Cases
Technical Presentations for SMEs and Stakeholders in Data Marketplaces and Data Spaces
Cities worldwide are working hard to exploit IoT and ITC technologies to deliver new services to citizens and improve their operations. While there have been considerable success, many cities struggle to transform ideas and proof of concept trials into sustainable services. Key to success seems to be involving citizens and other community stakeholders early and often in service development and deployment. This session brings together speakers covering the ho...
Rolf Riemenschneider (European Commission) – EU perspective challenges related to performing processing in the cloud. The need to move processing to the edge where possible for latency, energy efficiency, security reasons (alleviate load on the cloud). Michael Hayes (Tyndall National Institute) “Power IoT challenges and opportunities (related to IoT wireless edge devices)”
