Brief description of the proposal
The project is focusing on human-centric research and use-case-driven innovation on SUStainable Edge-oriented Trustable Things (SUSETT) to enable social benefits. The objectives are:
(1) Addressing the European Green Deal by maximising efficiency and sustainability of Trustable Things (Electronic Components and Systems (ECS) and ECS-based solutions)
(2) Embracing a systemic view of sustainability
* AIoT & Edge AI paradigm (strengthening the edge cloud continuum,...)
* New devices/systems with very low demand on energy incl. energy harvesting/energy efficiency approaches
* Building resilience (incl. security)
* Innovative and sustainable Processes
- Full life cycle approach: development/production/operation/end-of- life...
- Bringing human users early into the loop
(3) Making sustainability a requirement as important as performance or reliability
* Sustainability can be threefold (focus of Use Cases):
1. In production (e.g., energy usage reduction)
2. In operation (e.g., energy usage reduction)
3. Trustable Things adopted in Use Cases (e.g., by optimising workflows & enhancing efficiency)
* Assessment of sustainability
- Design for sustainability
- Technical sustainability: specific KPIs
