You ‘d like to contribute as an intern? Join our IT for Innovation Services department

The IT for Innovative Services (ITIS) department, with its 100 researchers and engineers, focuses on the digital transformation of operations in organizations with traditional environments and digital ecosystems, with the aim of improving their performance and innovation capacity. The common thread throughout ITIS is to develop the most efficient use of big data to ensure the most appropriate decision-making processes.

The department relies on the Data Analytics Platform: a hybrid infrastructure covering the entire range of data analytics activities. The platform is based on three pillars: a high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure, a cognitive analytics pillar and an interactive visualization wall (Viswall).

How will you contribute?

Deterministic networking is one of the key requirements in future cyber-physical systems. Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) has recently been developed to meet these requirements in wired networks (e.g., Ethernet). However, the internetworking between TSN and 5G systems has yet to be explored. In addition, 6G mobile networks are expected to support deterministic end-to-end time-critical applications.

The main goal of the internship is to build a TSN demonstrator based on the TSN hardware available in the 6G Lab. TSN is one of the main research topics of the EDGE group and it is included in its STRIA. The internship has the following objectives:

1. Build a wired TSN testbed using the TSN hardware available in the 6G Lab.
2. Develop a demonstrator using the TSN testbed to showcase the performance and potential of this technology.
3. Investigate methods to integrate the wired TSN testbed with best-effort wireless networks (WLAN, 5G).
4. Extend the base demonstrator with wireless capabilities.
