High-Tech and Affordable 5G Network Roll-Out to Every Corner

Affordable5G aims at creating a 5G network that will deliver a complete and affordable solution covering the needs of private and enterprise networks through technical innovation that span across all parts of 5G network, leveraging cell densification, RU/DU/CU split, hardware acceleration, edge computing and core network virtualization, seamlessly combined with the adoption of open-source RAN, MEC and MANO solutions, for cloud-native, micro-service based deployments.

Holistic, omnipresent, resilient services for future 6G wireless and computing ecosystems (HORSE)

6G technologies, benefitting from softwarisation, Gb/s speed and sub-THz communications paradigms, open up opportunities for developing new and innovative network management strategies while navigating the evolution toward disaggregation, new software-based paradigms in architecting and operating future connectivity platforms, and embracing features of computing, automation and smartness, trust, privacy and security.

Towards a functional continuum operating system (ICOS)

The unstoppable proliferation of novel computing and sensing device technologies, and the evergrowing demand for data-intensive applications in the edge and cloud, are driving a paradigm shift in computing around dynamic, intelligent and yet seamless interconnection of IoT, edge and cloud resources, in one single computing system to form a continuum. Many research initiatives have focused on deploying a sort of management plane intended to properly manage the continuum.
