The Artemis CONCERTO project had its kickoff meeting on 13th and 14th of May, 2013 in Pisa, Italy, where CISTER's researchers Eduardo Tovar, Vincent Nelis, Geoffrey Nelissen and Gurulingesh Raravi participated.
CONCERTO will address emerging embedded systems platforms harnessing new heterogeneous, multicore architectures to enable the next generation of powerful mission-critical applications. The applicability of the CONCERTO solutions will be validated in the aerospace, telecoms, automotive, petroleum and medical industrial domains.
CISTER will have a bold participation in the CONCERTO project. CISTER will be central to the success of one of the main objectives of CONCERTO, which is extending the multicore domain the model driven engineering approach for critical software development that resulted from the recently finished CHESS FP7/Artemis project.
Besides ISEP (through CISTER/INESC-TEC), the CONCERTO project involves key industrial players such as Intecs (IT), Thales (FR), Atego (FR), EADS (FR), Aicas (DE), The Open Group (UK), Oilfield Technology Group (NO) and Critical Software (PT). From the EADS group both Airbus (aviation) and Astrium (satellites) are participating. CONCERTO is a 10 Million Euros cost project, out of which 4 Million Euros of funding (both EU and National funding). The total funding for ISEP will be 375 KEuros.
