This September, the team of the EU-funded Swarmchestrate project (Application-level Swarm-based Orchestration Across the Cloud-to-Edge Continuum), gathered in sunny Athens, hosted by the Institute of Communication and Computer Systems of the National Technical University of Athens, to discuss the next steps in the project. Interest mainly revolved around the on-going research in areas of interest of the project, such as orchestration, swarm computing, knowledge management, security and AI. Furthermore, the synergies of the project’s demonstrators with the Swarmchestrate framework were discussed, as well as the collective dissemination & communication efforts of the project partners.
The project coordinator is HUN-REN SZTAKI, a Hungarian research institute; among the 14 project partners, we find universities, research institutes and companies from 10 different EU countries, the UK and Korea. The technical coordination lies with the University of Westminster, represented in this project by the Centre for Parallel Computing (CPC), a centre of excellence and one of the leading and most successful research hubs within the University. The project is funded with €4,3 million from the European Union’s Horizon Europe Programme, with £938.271 coming from the UKRI and with €356.229 from the Seoul National University (Institute of Engineering Research) and the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) (funded by the Korea government, Ministry of Science and ICT -MSIT).
