The Horizon Europe twinning project AIoTwin organised its 2nd Summer School on the intersection of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in September 2024 in the enchanting city of Dubrovnik, Croatia . The event took place at the Centre for Advanced Academic Studies (CAAS) of the University of Zagreb , which offers a stunning view of Dubrovnik's Old Town's famous City Walls and Lovrijenac Fortress.
The event was organised in collaboration with the EU-funded SmartEdge project and brought together more than 40 participants from all over Europe. The programme of the summer school included invited talks, technical tutorials and hands-on sessions, as well as the technical programme of the workshop “ Edge AI meets Swarm Intelligence ” with paper presentations and poster sessions showcasing the latest research results by PhD students.
Key highlights of the Summer School include:
Keynotes by Aaron Ding (TU Delft) on sustainable and trustworthy edge AI for future computing, Stefan Nastic (TU Vienna) on computing paradigms for next-generation computing landscapes, Spyros Lalis (University of Thessaly ) on elevating drones to first-class citizens in the cloud-edge-IoT continuum.
Tutorials on doctoral education at KTH, insights on operating distributed computing continuum systems through active inference, exploring privacy-preserving computation techniques for edge AI, in-network programming and practical guidelines for startups with examples.
Hands-on sessions included two open-source solutions: 1) AIoTwin orchestration middleware enabling edge orchestration of hierarchical Federated Learning workflows and 2) ColonyOS , an event-driven meta-operating system spanning edge and cloud environments.
Joint technical workshop with the project SmartEdge on “ Edge AI meets Swarm Intelligence ”.
The event successfully promoted collaboration and networking between academics, PhD students and industry professionals through interactive sessions, giving researchers and participants the opportunity to share insights on edge AI , swarm intelligence and edge orchestration .
