CISTER Researcher Ramiro Robles represented CISTER/ISEP in the final event of the European ECSEL project SCOTT (Secure Connected Trustable Things) that took place on the last two days of September 2020.
CISTER/ISEP is one of the leading partners of the project, being the leader of one technology line related to the reference architecture, the chair of the technical board of the project, and collaborator in the aeronautics, standardization, trust framework, and dissemination work-packages of the project. The preliminary outcome by the reviewers was highly positive, with details to come in a future document to be released by the project coordinators.

Ramiro Robles represented CISTER/ISEP in the F2F technical board meeting of the project SCOTT held at the premises of our partner NXP in Munich, Germany on the 7th of February 2019.
This meeting was mainly focused on how the different WPs and Technology lines of the project will answer the comments of the reviewers provided in the official feedback after the first year of the project. In addition, the meeting was also focused on refining the impact and exploitation definition of the project highlighting the main measurable outcomes expected of the project and how we will achieve the target values.
CISTER/ISEP acted as the chair of the technical board, leader of the reference architecture of the project and representative of the aeronautics domain.
 

From the 16th until the 18th of October, 2018, the SCOTT project consortium gathered in the city of Cork Ireland for a face-to-face and general assembly meetings. This is the third GA of the project and the second in 2018. This meeting was mainly used to keep track of the progress and to analyze the feedback from the reviewers after the meeting in Brussels in September 2018. CISTER/ISEP plays a key role in the project as leader of the technology line of the reference architecture, chair of the technical board, and co-lead of the aeronautics use case. SCOTT aims to build trust in IoT solutions for 5 different industrial domains: aeronautics, automotive, railway, building, and healthcare. SCOTT uses the concept of the Bubble to enhanced backwards compatibility with existing domain infrastructure, encapsulating these underlying technologies with a modern IoT interoperable and cross-domain cloud application environment with enhanced security, safety and trust.

Ramiro Robles was present in the first year project review meeting in Brussels. The review meeting was preceded by a rehearsal meeting with all the representatives of the different domains, and industrial partners. The preliminary feedback was very positive and the work in the reference architecture and aeronautics domain lead by ISEP received positive comments.

Ramiro Robles participated in the ISO/IEC/JTC1 SC41 meeting in Berlin, at the premises of the German standardization authority (DIN), where the SCOTT-ISO liaison between WG5 and the project SCOTT was accepted.
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC41/WG5 is the working group in charge of the Internet of Things technology and applications. This activity is part of the standardization strategy of project SCOTT (Secure Connected Trustable Things).

CISTER is proud to announce it will be the host of the first general meeting of the ECSEL project SCOTT (Secured COnnected Trustable Things) in October. SCOTT is one of the largest European research projects focusing on important aspects of trustability, dependability, security, privacy, and safety of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

SCOTT has a consortium of large European industrial partners such as Volvo, INDRA, Ericsson, AVL, NXP, Nokia, and Phillips that together with a team of leading academic partners aim to leverage the IIoT and related technologies across European industries. Such technologies include: wireless sensor networks, RFID, machine to machine communications, cloud computing, Big data, software-defined networks, and 5G. The general meeting will also host the technical board and strategic board meeting, as well as the official general assembly and workshops of the different technology lines and building blocks of the project.

CISTER has a relevant role in the project as chair of the technical board, member of the core team and strategic board. CISTER is also the leading partner of the reference architecture design, one of the main partners in the aeronautical industrial domain, and a contributing partner in standardisation, certification and regulation.
