The European Commission’s Directorate‑General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG CONNECT) has opened a call for expression of interest on future visions and research directions for the work programme 2025-2027 in the area of cloud-to-edge-to-IoT for European Data. The Deadline for submissions is April 14, 2023. The EUCloudEdgeIoT Initiative is supporting in the dissemination of the activity.
Under Horizon Europe’s Cluster 4, the European Commission supports a new strategy on the next generation of Cloud-Edge-IoT continuum with more intelligence and autonomy at the edge. Research and innovation (R&I) investments under the work programme 2020-2023 focused on establishing a baseline technology and emerging system concepts based on the cloud-edge computing paradigms by building on relevant elements of computing, connectivity, IoT, AI and cybersecurity. Further R&I is devoted to the development of a Cognitive Cloud-Edge Computing Continuum, as a hyper-distributed computing approach that exploits artificial intelligence techniques to advance automation and dynamic adaptation of resource management across IoT devices and Edge and Cloud computing models.
Next in line is the work programme 2025-2027. For this, DG CONNECT launches an expression of interest to contribute to and invites everyone who wishes to express their visionary perspectives on the future of the European research and innovation programmes 2025-2027 under the above areas, looking at new ways for managing the Cloud to Edge continuum, capturing new trends like from MetaOS towards MetaWeb, for industrial IoT towards a Metaverse@theEdge, for radically new Software Engineering Challenges or related big game changers.
The contributions should help to guide the European Commission on future disruptive trends, radically new vision, and emerging game changers for the Cloud-Edge-IoT research domain and help structuring the future R&I policy for the work programme 2025-27.
More information is available on the EUCloudEgeIoT website.
All vision papers are screened in a confidential manner and a selection is planned to be invited to present during a consultation meeting in Brussels, 11 May 2023.
