The InTERiM project is the crossing of two projects, one in Switzerland, the other in Tunisia:
- The Swiss joint project which aims at combining edge and Cloud technology to deploy and execute self-adapting Machine Learning based IoT applications on large scale area.
- The Tunisian “PNRI” (Programme National de Recherche et d’Innovation) project, led by IPNET. This project aims at deploying an IoT smart agriculture application used to predict irrigation water requirements.
InTERiM aims at:
- using the expertise of the Swiss partners (HES-SO, SixSq) in the domain of edge and cloud to deploy the IoT smart agriculture application on a hybrid edge/cloud platform based on the SixSq NuvlaBox appliance;
- using the IoT smart agriculture application as concrete use-case to extend and enlarge the markets targeted by the Swiss joint project;
- create a partnership between the two non-academic partners: SixSq and IPNET to target the Tunisian market in particular, and that of Africa in general.
