MASCOT - MeAsuring Security in Cloud OuTsourcing
Over the past decade, the trend in both the public sector and industry has been to outsource ICT to the cloud. While cost savings are often used as a rationale for outsourcing, another argument that is frequently used is that the cloud improves security. The reasoning behind this is twofold. First, cloud service providers are typically thought to have skilled staff trained in good security practices. Second, cloud providers often have a vastly distributed, highly connected network infrastructure, making them more resilient in the face of outages and denial-of-service attacks. Yet many examples of cloud outages, often due to attacks, call into question whether outsourcing to the cloud does improve security.
The Youngsters - Artificial Intelligence at the edge to support young animals for a sustainable smart farming
The first days in the life of young animals are seen as critical. Extra attention from the farmer is required: are the animals keeping warm, do they get enough colostrum and are they active enough to survive? In this project the integration of smart sensors that measure activity, temperature, weight and heartrate is looked at in order to get the required insight into the condition and risk factors of the animal with the use of artificial intelligence. Detailed information will be collected with sensors on the body as well as external sensors. These data will be analyzed in order to alert and advise the carer.
