DROP (Distributed Resource Offloading) was funded through the NEPHELE 2nd Open Call (FSTP). NEPHELE develops a lightweight software stack and synergetic meta-orchestration framework for the next-generation compute continuum, enabling efficient and secure orchestration of hyper-distributed applications spanning Cloud-to-Edge-to-IoT infrastructure.
NUBIS contribution: Through the DROP proposal, NUBIS develops a distributed resource offloading mechanism leveraging the vAccel framework for ESP32-based IoT devices. DROP enables real-time processing capabilities for resource-constrained devices while reducing latency and improving system efficiency, fostering innovation in logistics, smart home, and industrial automation.
