Center for Trustworthy Edge Computing Systems and Applications
TECoSA is a Vinnova center that brings together KTH and 17 industrial partners. The aim is to provide methods, tools and theory for building safe, secure and predictable systems relying on edge computing.
Industrial and societal relevance
New TECoSA Partner!
TECoSA core projects
CART
The research in CART aims to promote road traffic safety and performance in such new environments encompassing a variety of operational design domains.
SMEDE
The SMEDE project applies novel approaches to managing communication and computing resources, focusing on ensuring security in the edge computing environment.
COLA
The goal of the COLA project is to facilitate the development of learning-based, multi-agent, real-time autonomous systems with humans in the loop by edge computing.
Information- and feedback loops between devices and edge nodes.
About edge computing
Edge computing is a computing layer located between the devices/embedded systems and the cloud, at the “edge” of the network. Edge nodes are connected and each one can perform computations and provide storage for several devices/embedded systems, providing lower response times, relieve network capacity and enhance privacy.
Challenges involved in ensuring trustworthiness properties.
Addressing the challenges
Wide-scale adoption requires edge computing-based systems to be trustworthy. TECoSA addresses the challenges involved in ensuring predictability, safety and security, both for the edge computing infrastructure and for the applications and services served by the infrastructure.
Roadmap on Industrial IoT (IIoT)
IIoT is a key enabling technology for the green transition, bringing together several technological paradigms, from smart electronic components, 5G technologies, to AI and Edge Computing. Five Nordic universities have developed a roadmap on Industrial IoT (IIoT).
