VERGE – AI-powered eVolution towards opEn and secuRe edGe architEctures

Edge computing involves an ecosystem of highly heterogeneous computing elements, which may be located practically everywhere across the path between the end-devices, the access network and the central cloud. In this context, the EU-funded VERGE project will design a flexible, modular and converged edge platform to support distributed AI at the edge. Focusing on security, privacy and trustworthiness, VERGE will carry out two use cases. The first will cover mixed reality driven edge-enabled industrial Beyond 5G applications in Turkey. The second will study edge-assisted autonomous tram operations in Italy. Results will be disseminated to academia, industry and the wider stakeholder community.
