Following a peer-review process, Springer Earth Science Informatics has accepted to publish a scientific manuscript, authored by UBITECH, University of Aegean and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki,, entitled “Development of a Spatial Database and Web-GIS for the Climate of Greece”. Dimitris Ntalaperas and his co-authors present the design and implementation of a spatial database and a web-GIS application that allow the management, visualization and analysis of data that are directly or indirectly related to climate and its future projections in Greece. Emphasis is given to the design decisions made in order to fulfill the requirements of flexible data querying and reporting, and of maintenance cost minimization. Cartographic layers for climatic and other parameters are dynamically produced through database views and geographic web services. The web-GIS provides user-friendly cartographic operations for visualizing and manipulating thematic maps, as well as reporting services for selecting, displaying and downloading climatic values for selected areas.

UBITECH leads the editing of a scientific publication about vertical apps and network services orchestration in 5G ecosystems
A scientific paper entitled “Separation of Concerns among Application and Network Services Orchestration in a 5G Ecosystem” has been authored by UBITECH, University of Genoa and University of Bristol, and is presented at the European Conference on Networks and Communications (EUCNC) that is going to take place in Ljubljana at 18-21 of June 2018. In this paper, Panagiotis Gouvas, Anastasios Zafeiropoulos, Eleni Fotopoulou, Thanos Xirofotos and their co-authors detail a novel holistic framework tackling the overall lifecycle of 5G-ready applications design, development, deployment and orchestration over application-aware network slices, highlighting the separation of concerns among the related stakeholders per layer of the proposed architecture.
UBITECH co-authors a scientific paper about the beyond-MANO features of the 5GTANGO Service Platform
A scientific paper entitled “5GTANGO: A Beyond-MANO Service Platform” has been co-authored by ALTICE Labs, CCT Catalunya, University of Piraeus, NCSR Demokritos and UBITECH, and is presented at the European Conference on Networks and Communications (EUCNC) that is going to take place in Ljubljana at 18-21 of June 2018. In this paper, Eleni Fotopoulou, Anastasios Zafeiropoulos and their co-authors present the 5GTANGO Service Platform, highlighting the features that we consider being beyond-MANO, which are the strongest points when compared.
UBITECH coordinates the editing of a manuscript about the adoption of 5G network technologies from vertical industries
5G network technologies are evolving in a tremendous pace, enhancing the potential for being adopted and exploited by vertical industries and serve advance networking requirements needs. Towards this direction, a set of 5G PPP projects (i.e. MATILDA, 5GTANGO, 5GCity, 5G-Xcast, 5G-MoNArch, SLICENET, 5G-MEDIA, IoRL, 5G-TRANSFORMER, 5GPICTURE, 5GCAR, BlueSPACE) are providing contributions for tackling aspects related to the overall lifecycle of 5G vertical applications design, development and deployment, including the activation and management of the appropriate network services. To this end, UBITECH has undertaken the responsibility to coordinate these projects so as to contribute towards the generation of the cartography of a set of novel solutions facilitating the adoption of 5G technologies by vertical industries, aiming at identifying set of challenges and relevant solutions as well as potential synergies among them. The produced whitepaper has been presented at the European Conference on Networks and Communications (EUCNC) that is going to take place in Ljubljana at 18-21 of June 2018.
UBITECH supports MarineTraffic showcasing BigDataOcean at Posidonia 2018
Exmile Solutions Ltd. (MarineTraffic), with the support of UBITECH and NTUA, presented the BigDataOcean project at the 2018 Posidonia exhibition, which took place at the Metropolitan Expo in Athens, Greece in June 4-8, 2018. In particular, as part of BigDataOcean, two presentations took place at the booth of MarineTraffic. The first presentation showcased the fault prediction and proactive maintenance pilot progress of the project, while the second one pertained to the use of Big Data for the detection of abnormal vessel behavior. Both presentations were very successful and drew many spectators. Posidonia is an biennial international shipping exhibition that takes place in Athens, Greece, which brings together the international maritime community, composed of industry leaders, shipowners, and other key maritime industry stakeholders. Every two years, more than 2.000 exhibitors come together from over 90 countries to show what they have to contribute to the maritime domain.
UBITECH co-organizes, coordinates and participates in 5G technologies -related workshops and special sessions at EUCNC 2018
Through its involvement in the MATILDA and 5GTANGO 5G PPP (https://5g-ppp.eu/) projects, UBITECH co-organizes and is actively involved in a series of workshops and special sessions organized at the European Conference on Networks and Communications (EUCNC) that is going to take place in Ljubljana at 18-21 of June 2018.
UBITECH’s success story on 5G technologies is included in NetWorld2020’s brochure on SME Expertise and Skills in the 5G Domain
The European Technology Platform for telecommunications and related services and applications, NetWorld2020, has released the second, revised and updated version of the brochure entitled “SME Expertise and Skills in the 5G Domain”, that aims at showing the expertise and skills from selected European Small and Medium -sized Enterprises (SMEs) in 5G and related domains, focusing more on the expertise that could be useful in various industry vertical sectors. Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) have an important role to play in developing, piloting and deploying 5G technologies, both to help with disruptive technologies and to address the needs of various vertical sectors. European SMEs have a great added value in providing innovative concepts and solutions that are having an important impact on the 5G value chain. They have the agility and flexibility required in a fast evolving technical and market landscape.
