EXTRACT coordinator Eduardo Quiñones from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center was invited to speak at the 28th Ada-Europe International Conference on Reliable Software Technologoies (AEiC 2024), which took place 11-14 June in Barcelona. His talk took place on 12 June...

As part of the Horizon Europe funding programme, seven pioneering projects have received funding to address the challenges posed by extreme data generated by Internet of Things (IoT), industrial, business, administration, environmental, scientific, societal sources....

Partner BINARE joined the CSC’s Digital Twins Technologies group at their Digital Twin seminar on 27 May 2024. They shared a poster on the Urban Digital Twin of Venice being prepard within the framework of the EXTRACT use case for a Personalised Evacuation Route. The...

The EXTRACT project, introduces a pioneering application of UDT in Venice, Italy—a city known for its unique architectural complexity and significant tourist influx. The UDT developed by LOGOS exemplifies advanced digital twin technology applied in urban settings.

Watch our videos to learb how the EXTRACT project is harnessing the power of data and testing its solutions in the PER and TASKA use case.

Implementing the PER  system and creating a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) model requires a preliminary phase that simulates the possible movements of people in an emergency situation to properly train the model.. A true-to-life simulator offers a safe and controlled platform for testing learning strategies in different situations.

On 2 February 2024, fifty retired policemen and women were called on to participate in a simulation activity that feeds into the project’s Personalised Evacuation Route use case. These volunteers met on San Servola island to help visually represent the change in crowd speed stemming from different obstacles put in their path.

By:SIXSQ Efficiently managing data is one of the main challenges faced by complex computing systems, including AI. The rapid increase of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and the vast amounts of raw data they generate have made it essential to effectively store and...

Elli Kartsakli and Alba Cañete from the BSC presented at the Barcelona Beat Agora, hosted by the Barcelona City Council on 26 February. Their presentation focused on smart city applications of the key enabling technologies that facilitate extreme data mining. It also included an introduction into the Venice Personalised Evacuation Route crisis management use case.
