View on F&T portalExpected Outcome
Proposal results are expected to contribute to one or more of the following outcomes:
- Development of European processors/accelerators for secure embedded intelligence supporting inference and machine learning in autonomous intelligent objects and AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) at the edge.
- Development of platforms and automated tools for HW/SW co-design of edge-AI based systems including non traditional computing paradigms (e.g. neuromorphic).
- Development of AI software algorithms and/or frameworks and tools for dealing with sparse computing resources for edge-AI based systems.
- Increased energy efficiency and improved processing capabilities for edge-AI.
- Support of virtualization concepts at firmware, operating system and middleware layer for vertical applications (e.g. automotive, industry, … )
- Design for security and reliability to support applications in critical sectors like mobility, healthcare, industry, …
Scope
Proposals need to address:
- The design of innovative and energy-efficient processing solutions for AI on theedge and deep-edge, with a focus on new processor architectures and middleware.
- Tools allowing semi-automatic and automatic design space exploration, including variants of algorithms, computing paradigms, hardware performances, energy efficiency, etc.
- Scalable architecture, use of interposer and chiplets to build chips for various applications (for edge and for embedded HPC applications) with the same family of hardware building blocks with efficient interconnection network, e.g. using photonics.
- Development of hybrid architectures, integration and cooperation of neuromorphic or other non-conventional computing solutions within classical systems. Supporting design tool chains and OSs addressing multiple computing paradigms
- Middleware and engineering tools, to reach a trade-off between training cost, power consumption and execution time while supporting virtualization concepts.
- Advanced memory management
- Automated transfer-learning, meta-learning, and real-time learning at the edge
- Secure (i.e. trustworthy and explainable) edge-AI by design.
- Encouraging SMEs to participate in those developments, in particular paying attention to the needs of SMEs, involve SMEs in project execution, and develop solutions that can be taken up and/or exploited by SMEs
The activities have their centre of gravity at the TRL 4-5 – see Annex 1 of the KDT JU Work Pogramme 2021

The complex funding rates of KDT JU RIAcall 2021 and the limitations of the submission system resulted in the fact that thefunding rates of the large enterprises (for profit not SMEs)are not adequately integrated in the JU/EU Budget table in the Part A. Consequently, these organizations need to calculate their JU/EU Funding asinstructed in the Guide for Applicants(examples for each Call/topic are presented).
Similarly, theNational Budgets/Funding Tableare not anymore integrated into the Part A (as it was the case in the past for the ECSEL JU) and itneeds to be uploaded as a separate xls filein the dedicated place holder in the submission tool. More details/instructions are provided in the Guide for Applicants
The Part C are now named National Part in the submission toolto avoid confusion with the Part C (dynamic forms) used by other programmes. Moredetailsareprovided in the Guide for Applicants
