Within the XReco project, Eviden has developed a Metasearch Service, a platform that allows user search across multiple media archives and data sources from a single access point. It doesn’t replace existing systems; instead of that, it connects them.

Following the trend for the provision of applications over programmable resources distributed across the computing continuum, in this manuscript, we detail a novel meta-orchestration approach for management of such applications. Two main challenges are considered.

This paper presents ICOS, a meta-operating system designed for the cloud continuum.

Transparency, collaboration, security, and digital sovereignty are the open source values that are also important to many European countries and institutions.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of IoT-Edge-Cloud continuum (IECC), effective management of computational tasks offloaded from mobile devices to edge nodes is crucial.

The term ‘Dynamic Heterogeneous Computing Sphere’ is used to describe a computing paradigm that is heterogeneous, volatile and highly dynamic.
