6G networks envision a pervasive service infrastructure spanning from centralized cloud to distributed edge and highly dynamic extreme-edge domains.

This perspective paper introduces a novel framework for container orchestration called CODECO.

The CROSSCON is a research project that targets developing research ideas into practical techniques and supporting prototypes, and the level of ambition is to validate results in lab conditions that are representative of a complex IoT system (i.e., technology readiness levels TRL 4 and TRL5).
