RELATED PROJECTS
- To address the need to optimize the resources available in wireless networks TELCO4IOT project has emerged, led by the Research Group on Cellular Communications Networks (GRXCA) of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC).
- The project involves the participation of the Center for Innovation in Electronics, Motion Control and Industrial Applications (MCIA) of the UPC. The main aim is to construct a digital twin to monitor, visualise and manage the state of maintenance of hospital equipment.
- The inLab FIB of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) collaborates with SEAT and the Volkswagen Group Innovation in the Predictive eBoost project.
- As smart cities are developed and, as a result, platforms enabled for the internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence expand, new and complex threats to their security increase exponentially. The new IRIS platform will increase the security and privacy of these ICT-based systems and will respond to attacks through a collaborative approach.
