  • FERARI: Flexible Event Processing for Big Data Architectures

    FERARI: Flexible Event Processing for Big Data Architectures

    FERARI is a research project aimed to define architectures and develop algorithms for efficient, real-time Big Data technologies of the future.

  • QualiMaster: A Configurable Real-Time Data Processing Infrastructure Mastering Autonomous Quality Adaptation

    QualiMaster: A Configurable Real-Time Data Processing Infrastructure Mastering Autonomous Quality Adaptation

    The growing number of fine-granular data streams opens up new opportunities for improved risk analysis, situation and evolution monitoring as well as event detection. However, there are still some major roadblocks for leveraging the full potential of data stream processing, as it would, for example, be needed the highly relevant systemic risk analysis in the financial domain.The QualiMaster project will address those road blocks by developing novel approaches for autonomously dealing with load and need changes in large-scale data stream processing, while opportunistically exploiting the available resources for increasing analysis depth whenever possible.

  • HBP: Human Brain Project

    HBP: Human Brain Project

    The Human Brain Project (HBP) is a European Commission Future and Emerging Technologies Flagship. The HBP aims to put in place a cutting-edge, ICT-based scientific Research Infrastructure for brain research, cognitive neuroscience and brain-inspired computing. The Project promotes collaboration across the globe, and is committed to driving forward European industry.

  • LEADS: Large-Scale Elastic Architecture for Data-as-a-Service

    LEADS: Large-Scale Elastic Architecture for Data-as-a-Service

    LEADS is a new European integrated project funded in part by the European Commission under the FP7. It groups together 3 universities and 4 companies with the common goal of building and showcasing a novel Cloud service model named Data-as-a-Service, atop an innovative infrastructure based on an elastic collection of geographically distributed micro-clouds.
