(V1.0 August 2024)
This theme addresses the seamless integration and deployment of new AI workflows and data pipelines across diverse technological infrastructures.
This involves harmonising various stages in the data lifecycle (capture, storage, computation, analysis, and transmission) within an ecosystem that includes IoT devices, edge computing, cloud environments, HPC, quantum computing, and 5G networks. It implies smooth interoperability between the different technologies and ensures that data flows seamlessly across these platforms.
But equally important is adapting AI workflows and data pipelines to operate effectively within this computing continuum. This will ensure that AI processes are flexible and compatible with different computing environments, from edge to cloud to HPC and beyond, leading to optimised deployment and execution of AI tasks.
Finally, this theme also pursues the achievement of real and practical use cases that show this convergence between AI/Data and edge/cloud/HPC and the application in real-world computing environments (including quantum computing).
