In partnership with Green Communications, Thales, Université Paris Saclay, Smile, Comu Systems and Sorbonne Université (SU), the IE6 project aims to test and evaluate an architecture for 6G. The architecture is made up of nodes that can be adapted by a programmable sovereign infrastructure to meet customized requirements.
IE6 project is financed as part of the France 2030 “Telecom 5G” call for projects.
The IE6 project aims to test and evaluate an architecture for 6G. The architecture is made up of nodes that can be adapted by a programmable sovereign infrastructure to respond in a personalized way to requests. The solution uses both hierarchical and decentralized communication modes. More specifically, the project will focus on the decentralization of Edge Cloud infrastructure, made up of nodes that carry both infrastructure and services. The project will study distributed software structures in detail, and will validate the use of serverless computing technologies for 6G, covering also their security.
Cnam is aiming to make three contributions to the project: the design of an IE6 infrastructure automation system, the definition of a new architecture for offloading functions and sub-functions onto programmable network cards, and their exploitation by new learning algorithms for infrastructure automation.
