RELATED PROJECTS

ASIMOV

Aircraft Safe Inspection Module by Operating UAVs
Period: January 2026 – December 2028
ASIMOV, funded by the Piedmont Region as part of the 2024 SWIch call for proposals, aims to accelerate, make safer, and optimize aircraft deicing operations at airports, reducing the consumption of anti-icing fluids and the operational load on workers. The solution, protected by a EU patent, is based on the use of UAS-Unmanned Aerial System.

ASIMOV is based on a partnership, which includes WPWEB srl, NIMBUS, TOP-IX Consortium, SAGAT, Politecnico di Torino (Dipartimenti DIATI, DAUIN and PIC4SER Interdepartmental Centre).

H2@EDGE

Hydrogen supporting telecommunications during energy criticality
Period: December 2025 – June 2028
H2@Edge, funded by the Piedmont Region under the 2024 SWIch call for proposals, aims to address energy criticality situations in the TLC sector through a solution based on green hydrogen.

It involves a “cross-sectoral” partnership, including Piedmontese SMEs from the telecommunications (TRC Srl), ICT (EURIX), and systems engineering (TECNODELTA Srl) sectors, as well as various departments from the two Turin universities, including POLITO-DENERG and UNITO Department of Chemistry. The TOP-IX Consortium coordinates the activities.

Fulcrum Project

The Universal Cloud Federation
The Fulcrum project was launched with the goal of creating a Federated Cloud model that emphasizes complementarity and collaboration rather than competition among providers of different sizes. The project is built on two main pillars: the InterCloud Exchange Foundation (ICX) and the Computing Exchange Market (CEM). The ICX serves as a consensus forum for defining and agreeing upon open-source frameworks for infrastructure federation. These frameworks are then supported and implemented within the Computing Exchange Market, a platform designed to enable the exchange and visibility of resources and services, adopting the solutions agreed and defined within the ICX.
