Continous Delivery toolkit

ENACT will deliver two enablers that aim at improving the continuous delivery of smart IoT systems, with a specific focus on (i) agile and continuous evolution and (ii) ensuring the proper design of the system before delivery. A particular attention will be given to support the testing of smart IoT systems and the gradual migration from the test to the operation environment.


Agile Operation Toolkit

ENACT will deliver three innovative enablers to significantly reduce the burden of managing and maintaining smart IoT systems. A specific attention will be given (i) to ensure the trustworthiness of such systems and (ii) to automate operation activities as much as possible.


Trustworthiness toolkit

ENACT will deliver a set of enablers addressing specific crosscutting trustworthiness concerns such as ensuring proper robustness, security and privacy of smart IoT systems.

Events


The Second MeSS Workshop - Colocated with STAF 22


The International Workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for Smart IoT Systems is one of the most accurate venues to offer researchers a dedicated forum to discuss fundamental as well as applied research that attempts to exploit model-driven techniques in the IoT domain. MeSS will be co-located with STAF'22 in Nantes.



The first MeSS Workshop - Colocated with STAF 21


ENACT Co-organize the fourth edition of the MeSS workshop. The International Workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for Smart IoT Systems is one of the most accurate venues to offer researchers a dedicated forum to discuss fundamental as well as applied research that attempts to exploit model-driven techniques in the IoT domain.



The first ENACT Hackathon


The 5th of March, ENACT organized its first Hackathon. For this Hackathon a strong focus was given to the Actuation Conflict Management, Orchestration and Deployment, and Context-aware Access Control enablers via presentations, tutorials, and challenges. We had a total of 36 participants from Sophia Antipolis. Several surveys were completed during the day, providing the consortium with useful information that will serve to evolve and improve our enablers.



Second ENACT Industry Day


The 6th of March, with the support of the SAFE and SCS clusters and Telecom Valley, ENACT has arranged its second industry day in Sophia Antipolis to meet companies located in southeast of France from the IoT sector and interested in adopting DevOps practices. 20 participants from 15 companies in the Sophia Antipolis ICT ecosystem registered to the event.



4th International workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for the Internet of Things (MDE4IoT) - STAF'20


ENACT Co-organize the fourth edition of the MDE4IoT workshop. This year the workshop will be co-located with STAF'20 in Bergen. The objective of this workshop is to: (i) foster work in its early stage on novel topics covering fundamental as well as applied research that attempts to apply model-driven techniques in the IoT domain, (ii) bring together researchers from the model-driven software development and IoT communities, as well as to promote discussions between theoreticians and practitioners, (iii) discuss the transfer and/or applicability of research results from the MDE community to IoT industrial case studies.



3rd International workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for the Internet of Things (MDE4IoT) - MODELS'19


ENACT Co-organize the third edition of the MDE4IoT workshop. This year the workshop will be co-located with MODELS'19 in Munich. The objective of this workshop is to: (i) foster work in its early stage on novel topics covering fundamental as well as applied research that attempts to apply model-driven techniques in the IoT domain, (ii) bring together researchers from the model-driven software development and IoT communities, as well as to promote discussions between theoreticians and practitioners, (iii) discuss the transfer and/or applicability of research results from the MDE community to IoT industrial case studies.


DevOps: the Future of Software Development for IoT Systems Workshop - IoT Week 2019 (SINTEF)


DevOps has recently emerged as a software development practice that encourages developers to continuously patch, update, or bring new features to the system under operation without sacrificing quality. Software development and delivery of IoT systems would greatly benefit from DevOps as devices and IoT services requirements for reliability, quality, security and safety are paramount. However, even if DevOps is not bound to any application domain, many challenges appear when the IoT intersects with DevOps. As a result, DevOps practices are far from widely adopted in IoT, in particular, due to thea lack of key enabling tools. In this workshop, we would like to invite speakers and panellists from both academia and industry to discuss with IoT Week 2019 attendees the future of the software development and operation of IoT systems. In particular, we will promote discussions about aspects related to the challenges and benefits of adopting DevOps for IoT system, the important tools to enable it, and the challenges and solutions to guarantee IoT systems trustworthiness.


Seminar on Actuation Conflict Management in IoT Systems (CNRS)


Numerous Iot Applications now manage connected objects, not restricted anymore to collect data from field, but having the capacity to act on their surrounding environment. Thereby, large scale IoT systems, become critical. Continuous deployment and integration solutions (DevOps) require new tools for enforcing the operational security and the degree of validation of the applications. Challenge 1: IoT software composition lies on shared hardware/software services. Concurrent accesses to these services lead deployed software applications to behave in a non-deterministic fashion. Synchronous languages offer a formal approach to constrain accesses and validate the deterministic behavior of the applications and the services. Challenge 2: Meanwhile, DEVS formalism provides capabilities to model and simulate discrete, continuous or hybrid complex systems, hence allowing: (i) To model complex physical interactions between actuators through a real physical environment (e.g. heater/cooler), and (ii) To model asynchronous software components to verify some properties through tests and simulations (case applicable to the modeling of the execution machine of a FSM).


ThingML: Model-Driven Software Engineering for Heterogeneous and Distributed Reactive Systems - MODELS'18 (SINTEF and TellU)


A Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) typically relies on a highly heterogeneous interconnection of platforms and devices offering a diversity of complementary capabilities: from cloud server with their virtually unlimited resources to tiny microcontrollers supporting the connection to the physical world. This tutorial presents a tool supported Model-Driven Software Engineering (MDSE) approach targeting the heterogeneity and distribution challenges associated with the development of CPS. The approach is based on a domain specific modelling languages called ThingML. The foundations and rational of ThingML have been elaborated over the past years based on a set of experiences and projects aiming applying the state of the art in MDSE in practical contexts and with different industry partners. The aim of the tutorial is (i) to reflect on these experiences to motivate the approach and its implementation, (ii) to describe the approach and its usage by the actors involved in the development of CPS and (iii) to provide handson experience with the associated tools.


2nd International workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for the Internet of Things (MDE4IoT) - MODELS'18


ENACT Co-organize the second edition of the MDE4IoT workshop. This year the workshop will be co-located with MODELS'18 in Copenhagen. The objective of this workshop is to: (i) foster work in its early stage on novel topics covering fundamental as well as applied research that attempts to apply model-driven techniques in the IoT domain, (ii) bring together researchers from the model-driven software development and IoT communities, as well as to promote discussions between theoreticians and practitioners, (iii) discuss the transfer and/or applicability of research results from the MDE community to IoT industrial case studies.
