5G/6G + Edge AI
AI-powered evolution towards open and secure edge architectures
EC-funded
The main goal of VERGE is to provide an integrated approach on how to tackle the challenges of edge computing evolution, described around three main pillars: i) Edge for AI, namely a flexible, modular and converged edge platform design, unifying the lifecycle management and closed-loop automation for cloud-native applications, Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) and network services across the edge-cloud compute continuum for ultra-high computational performance; ii) AI for Edge, namely an AI-powered portfolio of solutions leveraging the multitude of collected metrics for intelligent management and orchestration; and iii) Security, privacy and trustworthiness of AI-based models at the Edge, providing a suite of methods to protect AI models against adversarial attacks, increase their explainability and reliability, and ensure data privacy.
