SUMMARY:Workshop: More than GigaBit Broadband & Metaverse on the Move\, 1 March 2023 in Barcelona
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1680527131534{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n \n   \nRationale and Objectives \n“Requirement roadmap mapping between mobile broadband and Metaverse “is the central theme in a workshop organized by NetworldEurope in a joint effort with CCSA (NetworldEurope Cooperative Members)\, on the morning of the 1st March\, in Barcelona\, in parallel with MWC. The workshop aims to provide an open information space to share current and future views about the real requirements of “Metaverse”\, and how this upcoming area is being realized by different stakeholders. Two different discussion panels are organized\, discussing current practices and plans\, as well as potential new requirements and challenges that the Metaverse may bring to mobile communications infrastructures. Ultimately\, the workshop will contribute to identify future innovation challenges that are being posed by the introduction of Metaverse in our society. \nThe workshop will feature key speakers from industry and academia\, representing the views of manufacturers\, operators\, and application developers. The event will have an hybrid format\, but will take opportunity of MWC to bring all speakers around the world together in the same room\, providing enhanced interactions in the discussions. \nAll speakers will be on site. Nevertheless\, since only a limited number of places are available\, this option will be confirmed on an individual basis for regular attendees. The draft version of the agenda is currently as follows: \nOpening video \n \nVideo Panel discussion 1     Video Panel discussion 2    Closing video \nAll presentations are here \nAll videos are here \nWorkshop report here \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1680529361308{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Workshop Moderators and Speakers\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1680525146149{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1680525313483{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Prof. Rui L Aguiar\, Chair of the Steering Board of the NetworldEurope European Technology Platform\, has been involved in research and strategic research management since 1988\, having been involved (in multiple positions) in all European-funded framework programs.   He was involved in the development of the NetworldEurope initiative\, and the launch of the 5G-Infrastructure Association PPP\, and has led the association before.

SUMMARY:Webinar on Smart Ports\, 16 September 2022
DESCRIPTION:Webinar on Smart Ports\, 16 September 2022\n\nWebinar registration is closed! \n \nRationale and Objectives \nWith the growing and changing demands of global trade\, many ports across the world are increasingly faced with more difficult challenges. These include infrastructure limitations (and the associated need for optimization)\, limited handling capacity\, and high OPEX\, as well as the challenge of complying with more stringent regulations\, man-power issues\, and aspects of sustainability. \nIt is commonly known that the adoption of ICT technologies in the port sector addresses many of these challenges. However\, the question arises as to how and when the sector can fully harness emerging ICT technologies to provide cost and time-effective management and monitoring solutions\, customized to meet the specific business requirements of ports while catering for the maritime environment and fully complying with evolving regulations. The question has been partially addressed by some ports that have recently taken steps toward the digital transformation of their processes\, based essentially on IoT\, cloud computing\, and renewable energy. \nThis event aims to highlight the experiences of some of these smart ports and the benefits achieved of such digitalization steps. Going beyond what has been achieved\, the event brings speakers from different contexts and locations in the world to discuss the Smart Port view on the evolution of paradigms and roadmaps toward new approaches based on emerging technological trends such as 5G and Beyond\, Big Data\, Artificial Intelligence\, and Digital Twins. The program will highlight the different approaches taken in very different ports and very different stakeholders\, and allow for a presentation of a very diverse set of views associated to the future of Smart Ports. \nOpening Rui Aguiar\,  Opening Wen Ku \n \nComments discussion 1\,  Comments discussion 2\,  Closing \nSee the webinar report here\n  \nSpeakers & Moderators: \nRui L Aguiar\, Chair of the Steering Board of the NetworldEurope European Technology Platform\, has been involved in research and strategic research management since 1988\, having been involved (in multiple positions) in all European-funded framework programs.   He was involved in the development of the NetworldEurope initiative\, and the launch of the 5G-Infrastructure Association PPP\, and has led the association before.

Digital evolution\, climate change\, increasing demand\, rapid urbanization etc etc. These mega-trends all have major implications for the future shape of rail\, pulling it in new directions. One essential trend is digital transformation that is visibly marked by the emergence of the concept Railway 4.0 and Digital Railway. \nGiven that the rail industry has its own specific requirements for optimally customized service delivery\, the ICT technologies\, such as 5G/B5G/6G communication systems will need to provide tailor-made solutions for future rail against the “one size fits all anywhere\, anytime” approach of current systems. Therefore\, it is of importance to provide a platform where both the rail and the communications industries can meet and converge. \nThe aim of this webinar is to take a first steps in this direction by bringing together experts from both sectors together. They will discuss paradigm shift and roadmaps towards new approaches\, future communication\, and related technologies such as AI and Cloud as enablers of a rail industry that is ready to meet tomorrow’s expectations and challenges\, including sustainability and full digitalization of the rail transport sector.
