This paper describes an information system designed to support the large volume of monitoring information generated by a distributed testbed. This monitoring information is produced by several subsystems and consists of status and…
The Internet of Things movement provides self-configuring and universally interoperable devices. While such devices are often built with a specific application in mind, they often turn out to be useful in other contexts as well. We claim…
The Sixth Generation (6G) network is a platform for the fusion of the physical and virtual worlds. It will integrate processing, communication, intelligence, sensing, and storage of things. All devices and their virtual counterparts will…
Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative training without pooling raw data, but standard FL relies on a central coordinator, which introduces a single point of failure and concentrates trust in the orchestration infrastructure.…
Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL) eliminates the need for a central aggregator, but it can expose communication patterns that reveal participant identities. This work presents UnlinkableDFL, a DFL framework that combines a peer-based…
We propose integrating the edge-computing paradigm into the multi-robot collaborative scheduling to maximize resource utilization for complex collaborative tasks, which many robots must perform together. Examples include collaborative…
The Hybrid Technology Hub and many other research centers work in cross-functional teams whose workflow is not necessarily linear and where in many cases technology advances are done through parallel work. The lack of proper tools and…
Numerous digital humanities projects maintain their data collections in the form of text, images, and metadata. While data may be stored in many formats, from plain text to XML to relational databases, the use of the resource description…
Critical goals of scientific computing are to increase scientific rigor, reproducibility, and transparency while keeping up with ever-increasing computational demands. This work presents an integrated framework well-suited for data…
The Web is a ubiquitous economic, educational, and collaborative space. However, it also serves as a haven for personal information harvesting. Existing decentralised Web-based ecosystems, such as Solid, aim to combat personal data…
A plethora of scholarly knowledge is being published on distributed scholarly infrastructures. Querying a single infrastructure is no longer sufficient for researchers to satisfy information needs. We present a GraphQL-based federated query…
The 6GENABLERS-DLT project addresses critical challenges in fostering multi-party collaboration within dynamic 6G environments. As operators and service providers increasingly depend on third-party resources to meet their contractual and…
Distributed, online data mining systems have emerged as a result of applications requiring analysis of large amounts of correlated and high-dimensional data produced by multiple distributed data sources. We propose a distributed online data…
Solutions to the classic problems of dealing with heterogeneous data and making entire collections interoperable while ensuring that any annotation, which includes the recognition-and-reward system of scientific publishing, need to fit into…
Federated Learning (FL) is a decentralized machine learning (ML) paradigm in which models are trained on private data across several devices called clients and combined at a single node called an aggregator rather than aggregating the data…
Complex systems are increasingly being viewed as distributed information processing systems, particularly in the domains of computational neuroscience, bioinformatics and Artificial Life. This trend has resulted in a strong uptake in the…
Replicated data types (RDTs) are data structures that permit concurrent modification of multiple, potentially geo-distributed, replicas without coordination between them. RDTs are designed in such a way that conflicting operations are…
Knowledge Tracing (KT) infers a student's knowledge state from past interactions to predict future performance. Conventional Deep Learning (DL)-based KT models are typically tied to platform-specific identifiers and latent representations,…
Federated learning is a privacy-focused approach towards machine learning where models are trained on client devices with locally available data and aggregated at a central server. However, the dependence on a single central server is…
Presently, a very large number of public and private data sets are available around the local governments. In most cases, they are not semantically interoperable and a huge human effort is needed to create integrated ontologies and…
