Special Sessions

Multipartner Research Projects

Organizer(s): Dimitrios Soudris (NTUA, GR), Giampaolo Agosta (PoliMI, IT)

This special session presents recent advancements from European, national, and regional multipartner research projects in the fields of embedded systems, high-performance computing (HPC), cloud software, and artificial intelligence (AI). The accepted contributions illustrate how collaborative efforts are addressing key challenges in platform development, system integration, and technology transfer across the digital continuum.

Topics covered include optimized computational modeling for next-generation mobility, orchestration frameworks for distributed computing environments, and national strategies to build HPC competence. Additional contributions explore multi-cloud architectures for smart and sustainable applications, progress in enabling serverless computing, and the development of open, secure processor technologies.

Common themes across the session include hardware/software co-design, platform portability, and the deployment of AI capabilities in resource-constrained and distributed environments. Several papers highlight methodologies for system verification, performance optimization, and real-world validation, emphasizing not only technical excellence but also relevance to pressing societal and economic needs.

This session serves as a forum for exchanging experiences, identifying synergies, and shaping future directions in collaborative research on embedded intelligence, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance computing.
