Advanced Offloading for Real-Time Applications

Purpose and goal

AORTA will develop technologies that allow offloading of real-time services and functionality to the edge and cloud. We will build upon recent advances in 5G and cloud and networking technologies, as well as cutting-edge research results. The AORTA framework will support a fluid compute model where functionality will be dynamically deployed locally, at the edge, or in the cloud and support integration and real-time performance irrespective of where they execute.

Expected effects and result

The project is expected to develop enablers and solutions that can be used by Swedish and European industry to streamline and enable the use of edge&cloud. The results come in the form of published papers, patents, demonstrations, student examinations (Masters and PhDs), new and improved products and services.

Planned approach and implementation

The project is divided into four work packages, with a number of identified tasks in each. Results will be spread between project parts and analysis to identify coordination gains will be performed. Once integration benefits have been identified, this will be described and in some cases implemented. A project management group with the project manager, and the work package managers meet regularly and are responsible for reporting and disseminating the results.
