CISTER hosts the kick-off meeting of the VORTEX CoLAB

On the 2nd of October, CISTER had the pleasure to host the kick-off meeting of VORTEX, a recently approved collaborative laboratory (CoLab) led by Altran Portugal and co-promoted by CISTER, HASlab/INESC TEC, NOVA LINCS, and Beta-i in the areas of Cyber-Physical Systems and Cyber Security. The goal of VORTEX is to explore the gaps and opportunities emerging from in the interplay between these two main areas, by boosting the results of fundamental R&D made in the Academia, to foster knowledge transfer and co-creation of new products on an active coaching approach and its release to the market as a product or integrated solution. VORTEX gathers research partners with recognized excellence in a set of proposed research areas, namely Intelligence, Usability, Control, Communications, Systems, Safety, and Security, and it is elevated by the involvement of Altran and Beta-i as business promoters with proven experience in the application domains and with access to key international industrial players.
