NGI Explorers - An EU-USA Webinar on Smart Cities & Regions for International Collaboration
The webinar is organised by NIST (USA) and NGI Explorers (EU) for the international smart cities and regions community. In this webinar, we are going to briefly discuss the future for Smart Cities in Europe and USA and introduce an initiative funded by NGI Explorers (EU Fellowships to the US) on how technologies like IoT, AI, Big Data and others can be used for smart city innovation. A focus part on this webinar is an introduction of innovative results in the field of Smart City KPI Methods for Measuring the impact of the technology in cities and also as a Self-Assessment method for evaluating community impact or digital inclusion. We will briefly discuss a roadmap for this innovation and finally how a smart city in Ireland (as an example) is following the methodology to advance in their Smart City development strategy.

The next webinar, titled ‘WIRELESS TESTBED W-ILAB.T’, will be held on December 3rd at 10 am CET.
Registration to the webinar is free but mandatory. REGISTER NOW.
FED4FIRE+ Webinar | Wireless testbed w-iLab.t
The w-iLab.t testbed enables all kinds of wireless, IoT, and 5G research. It provides more than 200 nodes in various environments (industrial environment, office, datacenter) with up to data WIFI hardware, user-defined radios, mobile nodes and IoT devices. The experimenter has full control over all of them.
This webinar will provide an overview of the w-iLab.t resources such as wireless fixed and mobile nodes, IoT, officelab and portable testbed and a hands-on tutorial on using the testbed.
TARGET AUDIENCE
The intended audience is hands-on experimenters who want to use (large) testbeds to put their research on a higher level. Background required: basic Linux know-how and know-how to use ssh to log in on a remote computer.
HANDS-ON MATERIAL
All tutorial material is available online at https://doc.fed4fire.eu and/or https://doc.ilabt.imec.be.Read more
2021 Joint EuCNC & 6G Summit
The 2021 Joint EuCNC & 6G Summit, initiated this year, builds on putting together two successful conferences in the area of telecommunications: EuCNC, in its 30th edition of a series, supported by the European Commission; and 6G Wireless Summit, in its 3rd edition, originated from the 6G Flagship programme in Finland, one of the very first in its area. The conference is sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society and by the European Association for Signal Processing.
With this year’s motto "On the Road to 6G", the conference focuses on all aspects of telecommunications ranging from 5G deployment and mobile IoT to 6G exploration and future communications systems and networks, including experimentation and testbeds, as well as applications and services. 2021 Joint EuCNC & 6G Summit brings together cutting-edge research and world-renown industries and businesses, globally attracting in the last years more than 1.300 delegates from more than 40 countries all over the world, to present and discuss the latest results, and an exhibition space of more than 1.500 m2 with more than 70 exhibitors, for demonstrating the technology developed in the area, namely within research projects from EU R&I programmes.
The conference will be held in Porto, Portugal, from 8 to 11 June 2021. We invite you and your colleagues to submit a paper to the conference, as well as proposals for workshops, special sessions and tutorials, by 29 January 2021.
