The aim of this project was to create a B2B-marketplace for trusted and proven cloud services.

IEEE TSN standards are the technology for unifying network infrastructures in the manufacturing industry. They gradually replace existing non-interoperable networking solutions and guarantee seamless communication from enterprise to field level. High bandwidth, full interoperability, strict and dependable real-time communication – TSN is a game changer for interconnecting shop floor assets.

Within the TT-Medal project, industrial and academic research teams have started a common offensive to establish a basis for the industrial application of tests and testing methodologies with advanced languages.

The TUNER project addresses current concerns about data privacy.It therefore aims to mitigate the risks involved in open networked environments. The project’s research results will be used for the creation of an open-source platform that supports the development of trustworthy service environments.

Cyber-physical Systems (CPSs) must be reliable, robust, efficient, safe, and secure, even in the presence of uncertainty. U-Test will aim to improve the dependability of CPSs by defining extensible MBT frameworks supporting holistic testing of the systems under uncertainty in a cost-effective manner.

This project, funded by the European Commission, introduces the concept ofUser Centric Networking (UCN), which is a new paradigm leveraging user information at large to deliver novel content recommendation systems and content delivery frameworks.

A group of 17 leading European telecommunications service providers, IT corporations, infrastructure vendors and academic institutions have launched “UniverSelf” a research initiative whose goal is to overcome the increasing complexity of managing communication networks and enable their future growth by generating innovations in autonomic networking – technologies that enable networks to manage themselves.

The UST+ project aims at the development of a semantically enhanced, context-sensitive middleware for dynamic interconnection and collaboration of services located on different devices.

SQC joined forces with an industry partner from the SME sector in the Vakoma project (validation methods for cost-effective, modular, industrial control systems) to develop decentralized modular architectures for control devices in compliance with IEC 61508, the standard governing safety requirements in electronic systems.

Within the VARIES project 23 partners from seven European countries work on maximizing the potential of variability in safety critical embedded systems, which underlie additional requirements. Therefore, the VARIES project team will develop an extensible reference platform for the “Variability Management”.

The expected outcome of the VERDE project is a net improvement of productivity, predictability and cost control in the development process. The VERDE solution will be readily exploitable by software engineering vendors and service providers.

The Internet of Things (IoT) increases the risk of attacks on the software of systems caused even by simple execution errors. Software verification tools can make a significant contribution to ensuring the security and reliability of digital technologies.
