The final version of Fog Computing tutorials was presented at the Virtual Embedded Systems Week Conference on October 7th, 2021. The tutorial presents novel architectures, hardware and software platforms, applications, and data-driven techniques for enabling fault tolerance in Industrial IoT and Fog Computing systems. It comprises theoretical and hands-on components with a focus on fault tolerance. The tutorial details are as follows: Fog Computing: Industrial Use Cases and Open Issues…
FORA Training School 3 (TS3) held virtuality from June 15th to June 19th, 2020. TS3 was initially planned to be held in Mälardalen University (MDH) in Västerås, Sweden as a summer school, which was canceled due to COVID 19 pandemic. This training school has consisted of four modules focusing on innovation and entrepreneurship, optimization techniques, deep learning, and visual science communication. The modules were followed by hands-on exercises. Overall, twenty-six…
The FORA AADL Workshop, in collaboration with the Institute of Information Systems Engineering of TU Wien, took place December 11-13, 2019, at the Distributed Systems Group of TU Wien, Austria. The FORA AADL Workshop was a three-day event, organized by Bahram Zarrin (DTU), with focus on the introduction of the AADL in use cases related to fog computing and industrial applications. During the course of this event, the participants had…
About The Nordic IoT Summer School is a week-long intensive introduction to all aspects of IoT systems. Rich sensor systems and distributed computation allow computing systems to measure and interact with the physical world. These emerging IoT systems will necessarily stretch from edge and fog computing devices that connect to cloud servers. Challenges at all levels of abstraction—devices, software, networks, architectures, and applications—must be faced to deliver on the potential…
The FORA’s interim check meeting has taken place Dec. 12, at Park Inn By Radisson hotel, Copenhagen. In conjunction with this meeting, we had a training day on Dec.11 to define the main concepts of the Fog Computing platform and plan its development and use. We had 32 participants, with representatives from each beneficiary. The local organizers of this event were Prof. Paul Pop and Dr. Bahram Zarrin from the Technical University of Denmark. The…
The main objective of the FORA Training School (TS1) is to introduce the basics of Fog Computing and Industry 4.0 very early on, i.e., 3 months after the majority of the ESRs have started. TS1 also covers resource management topics (SC3). To help plan their research, ESRs take TC1 on research methodology and scientific publishing. This is also when they have a seminar on ethics (including research integrity) and gender…
