Important results from the project
The overall goal of DEWI was to provide industry with an opportunity to introduce dependable wireless technology in a context that requires high reliability of communication, such as in-vehicle sensor networks. Through about twenty demonstrators, the project has managed to show the many benefits of intelligent wireless systems, and has demonstrated a significantly higher reliability and reliability for these applications.
Expected long term effects
At the end of the project, about 20 demonstrators have been presented where the potential for the DEWI architecture and other innovations has been shown. Some of the benefits of intelligent wireless systems that the project has shown are: reduced vehicle weights, simple and inexpensive system updates, increased flexibility and reconfigurability, and reduced installation costs. With the technologies and architectures developed within DEWI, we have achieved significantly higher reliability and dependability in the applications studied.
Approach and implementation
The project was a major EU / Artemis project, coordinated by the Virtual Vehicle Research Center (Graz, Austria). The project has covered four domains (vehicles, aerospace, trains, buildings), and after the development of a larger number of use-cases and technology items, the results have since been reported in the form of twenty demonstrators. The coordinator has done an exemplary job and the project has had all of its 279 deliveries approved by the Commission without notice.
