NEPHELE co-organises MECC 2025 workshop in Rotterdam

The 2nd Workshop on MetaOS for the Cloud-Edge-IoT Continuum (MECC 2025) will take place in Rotterdam, The Netherlands on 31th March 2025. (It will be co-hosted at the ACM EuroSys 2025 that will be held from March 30 to April 3, 2025).

The workshop, co-organised by the MetaOS projects cluster - FLUIDOS, NEPHELE, aerOS, NebulOuS, NEMO and ICOS EU funded projects - and also MANOLO project, aims to provide an overview of the opportunities and critical issues brought by a MetaOS orchestrating the Cloud-Edge-IoT ecosystem, particularly focusing on its deployment to optimize AI processes computational needs.
