MYRTUS in European networks

Working with Europe's computing research and industry communities

Rather than building a community of its own, MYRTUS contributes to the networks that already shape computing research and industry in Europe. Through them, project partners share results, help define research priorities, exchange ideas with researchers in Europe and North America, and bring MYRTUS technologies to industry, so that they can keep evolving beyond the project.

Shaping the research agenda for the computing continuum, in Europe and across the Atlantic.

Industry network

Bringing MYRTUS results to the European industry of intelligent digital systems.

Research network

From the research side, MYRTUS takes part in the networks where the future of computing systems is discussed, both as a project and through the universities and research centres of its consortium. Partners bring the project's experience on orchestration, design tools and swarm intelligence to these communities, and bring back new ideas and research directions. MYRTUS also works closely with its sister projects, the Horizon Europe projects of the Cognitive Computing Continuum cluster, through joint webinars, workshops and shared open results: read more on the MYRTUS and its sister projects page.

HiPEAC

HiPEAC is Europe's largest network for computing systems research. Since 2004 it has connected more than 2,500 researchers, industry experts and policy makers, and it is a focal point for dissemination, training and collaboration in the field.

MYRTUS is listed among the projects of the HiPEAC network and uses its events to present results and meet related initiatives, for example in workshops organised with other projects at the HiPEAC conference. Many MYRTUS partners are long-standing members of the HiPEAC community: they present their work on the computing continuum, design tools and adaptive hardware at the annual HiPEAC conference, and take part in its training activities, such as the ACACES summer school, where continuum topics are now a regular part of the programme.

DISCOVER-US

DISCOVER-US is a Horizon Europe initiative that draws on the HiPEAC network, in collaboration with the US National Science Foundation. Since January 2024 it has been building research collaborations between Europe and North America on the computing continuum, distributed computing and swarm intelligence, the same topics at the core of the MYRTUS cognitive engine.

MYRTUS researchers are part of the DISCOVER-US community and bring to it the project's experience on the computing continuum and on swarm-based orchestration. They take part in its vision workshops and online meetings, where European and North American researchers discuss shared research challenges, contribute to its vision papers, and present MYRTUS approaches in the DISCOVER-US webinar series. These exchanges connect the project with researchers across the Atlantic and open the way to future joint research, also through the short research exchanges that DISCOVER-US funds in both directions.

MYRTUS in the research network

Industry network

From the industry side, MYRTUS works with the association that brings together European companies, research centres and universities in intelligent digital systems. This is where the project meets potential adopters of its technologies and builds links for their exploitation after the project.

INSIDE Industry Association

INSIDE (formerly ARTEMIS-IA) is the European industry association and technology platform for intelligent digital systems. It is one of the three private members of the Chips Joint Undertaking and brings together actors across the electronic components and systems (ECS) value chain. Within the EUCloudEdgeIoT initiative, INSIDE leads the task force on strategic liaisons with industry.

MYRTUS has been active in the INSIDE community since the start of the project. As a project, it takes part in INSIDE initiatives and in the main events of the European ECS community, such as the ECS Brokerage Event and the European Forum for Electronic Components and Systems (EFECS), and shares its vision and results through the INSIDE Magazine. Individual partners, from both industry and academia, join INSIDE working groups, such as the focus group on the AI-enabled computing continuum. These activities put MYRTUS in contact with companies that could adopt its technologies.
