ERATOSTHENES project started in October 2021. It involves 14 partners (6 small and medium-sized enterprises, 5 academic initiatives, and 3 large entities), three of which are from Spain (Universidad de Murcia, Atos, and IDIADA). Its estimated duration is 45 months with the collaboration of 8 European Union countries.
There will be three lines of work to be tested in pilots:
-
Interaction with vehicle (V2V) and road infrastructure (traffic lights) and software updates.
-
Smart health with Zero-contact enrollment of users and devices; integrations with third-party services; the extension of the platform with private devices; implementations for emergency situations; and a continuous monitoring and lifecycle management of services.
-
Disposal IDs in Industry 4.0 by the implementation of resilient and secure asset Identification; distributed disposable ID service; trust and permission service; Open Source and 3rd party integration; and scalability testing.
Atos will be ERATOSTHENES technical manager and will also lead the Decentralized Identity Management, focusing on the development of Context-aware identity and access management and, especially, it will implement Self-sovereign identity (SSI) solutions.
