Projects and Reports

ARMC3

Tools for Autonomic Resource Management in the Cognitive Continuum: Improve the sustainability and reliability for large-scale systems though data-driven energy and resource management.

WARA-Ops will provide both 5G network access as well as compute infrastructure for analytics and data-sharing.

AIR2

AI for Attack Identification, Response and Recovery: The goal of the NEST project AIR2 is to develop resource-efficient systems that can operate with high autonomy even in hostile communication networks.

WARA-Ops will provide the computing and network infrastructure for conducting experiments and collection datasets for different kinds of attacks.

WARA-PS

The WARA-Ops cloud environment (“Xerces”) will continue to host components of the WARA-Ops core system.

About WARA-Ops

Ops is an ambitious research arena that seeks to bring together Swedish industry and academia to solve state-of-the-art challenges in data-driven operational research. It will develop an advanced data storage and processing infrastructure that will enable users to interactively store, annotate, process, and visualize large operational datasets, and - importantly - will provide a collaborative environment that will allow users to interact, share data and results, and set challenges and research questions.

The initial focus of WARA-Ops will be in two key areas:

  • check_circle Anomaly detection. We will collect and provide datasets and their associated research challenges, e.g., intrusion detection, denial-of-service attacks, etc. Examples of data include system/software log files.
  • check_circle Autonomous management. We provide and generate datasets that can be used to drive research into next-generation autonomous management systems that can proactively predict future demand.

Mailing List

WARA-Ops now has a mailing list; this will be a low volume list used to send out meeting announcements, grant opportunities, and updates on WARA-Ops and its associated infrastructure.
