INCODE @EBDVF 2023

The European Big Data Value Forum (EBDVF) is the flagship event of the European Big Data Value and Industrial AI Research and Innovation community. The event brings together industry professionals, business developers, researchers and policy-makers from all over Europe and other regions of the world to advance policy actions, and industrial and research activities in the areas of Data and AI. This year, the event will take place in Valencia, Spain, on 25 – 27 October 2023.

INCODE will participate in three sessions:

European Efforts on Creating Sustainable Heterogeneous Swarm Systems Across Computing Continuum

With partners Uni Systems and Martel Innovate

October 25, 16:30 – 17:30

As Europe creates a pathway for the understanding and development of the Cloud, Edge and IoT Continuum and supporting research and innovation initiatives to develop applications across the continuum, the paradigm also incorporates development of swarm and decentralized applications.

In this session, co-organised by two Horizon Europe projects, INCODE and TARDIS, experts will discuss about the challenges faced in the early stages of development of the architecture, how to align the market needs, and the support from the Cloud Edge IoT community in bringing together experts from different domains and helping find solutions to the research problems. The role of sustainability in the architecture and development of these technology platforms will also be addressed.

Speakers:

• John Avramidis, Uni Systems
• Giovanni Rimassa, Martel Innovate
• Giacomo Inches, Martel Innovate
• Monique Calisti, Digital for Planet
• Joao Leitao, NOVA University of Lisbon

Global Manufacturing-X Systems: Shaping industrial data ecosystems together

With partner Politecnico di Milano

October 25, 16:30 – 18:00

To support the development of sustainable, resilient, and competitive industrial solutions, the manufacturing industry is currently planning significant investments in the deployment and operation of a federated data economy for manufacturing.

It will bring together thought-leaders and decision-makers from both the public and the private sector who can represent the interests of key manufacturing initiatives in countries and regions around the world, who can facilitate an active and continuous dialogue for the global nurturing of trustworthy data ecosystems, and who can steer the development of the data economy.

Speakers:

• Sergio Gusmeroli, Politecnico di Milano
• Davide delle Carbonare, Engineering Ingegneria Informatica SpA
• Oscar Lazaro, Innovalia
• Thomas Hahn, Siemens AG

Accelerating the Adoption of Manufacturing Use-Cases through Computing Continuum and Data Spaces

With partner MADE Competence Center

October 27, 11:30 – 12:30

The manufacturing sector stands as a linchpin in Europe’s economic landscape, contributing significantly to GDP, employment, and innovation. Accounting for over 15% of the European Union’s GDP and employing millions of people, manufacturing plays a pivotal role in driving innovation, exports, and overall economic growth.

This session aims to explore the pivotal role played by the computing continuum and data spaces in accelerating the adoption of manufacturing use-cases. We will delve into the concepts, technologies, and real-world applications that are driving this transformation, highlighting the benefits, challenges, and best practices for leveraging these innovations.

Speakers:

• Golboo Pourabdollahian, IDC
• Alissa Zaccaria, Intellimech
• Maria Rossetti, MADE Competence Center
