EVOLVED-5G was present at EuCNC & 6G Summit 2023! The 2023 EuCNC & 6G Summit built on putting together two successful conferences in the area of telecommunications: EuCNC (European Conference on Networks and Communications), supported by the European Commission, and the 6G Summit, originated from the 6G Flagship programme in Finland, one of the very first in its area. It brought together cutting-edge research and worldrenown industries and businesses, globally attracting in the last years more than 1300 delegates from more than 40 countries all over the world, presented and discussed the latest results, and an exhibition with more than 70 exhibitors, for demonstrating the technology developed in the area, namely within research projects from EU R&I programmes. EVOLVED-5G reserved a booth, presented accepted conference papers and introduced numerous visitors to the concept and the achievements of our project! Apart from the booth several other activities took place in the context of the conference.
The following list tentatively describes the activities, performed there:

The 2023 EuCNC & 6G Summit builds on putting together two successful conferences in the area of telecommunications: EuCNC (European Conference on Networks and Communications), supported by the European Commission, and the 6G Summit, originated from the 6G Flagship programme in Finland, one of the very first in its area. The conference is sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), the European Association for Signal Processing (EURASIP) and the European Association on Antennas and Propagation (EurAAP), and focuses on all aspects of telecommunications ranging from 5G deployment and mobile IoT to 6G exploration and future communications systems and networks, including experimentation and testbeds, and applications and services.
EVOLVED-5G project will be there through a booth at H00-22. Also, the project will be represented by some paper presentations. Stay Tuned for more information.

The 5GPPP Architecture WG released the white paper entitled “The 6G Architecture Landscape – European perspective”. You may find it online along with the EVOLVED-5G contributions here: https://5g-ppp.eu/white-papers/
This white paper summarizes the main findings from the European research landscape on the vision of the 6G architecture. Such a design vision is derived from around 45 projects starting from October 2020 in all relevant areas of 5G while paving the way towards 6G, within the 5G Public Private-Partnership (5G PPP) in the scope of the European Framework for Research and Innovation (the list of contributing projects can be obtained from the 5G PPP website at https://5g-ppp.eu/5g-ppp-phase-3-projects/.). At present, the European networking research community has started a new program along with 33 projects on the Smart Networks and Service (SNS) programme that will focus on 5G advanced and 6G. The 5G/B5G Architecture Working Group (WG), as part of the 5G PPP Initiative, is identifying and capturing novel trends and key technological enablers for the realization of the 5G and 6G architecture. The main findings and results of the Architecture WG are now captured in this white paper, which presents a consolidated view from European perspective on the technical directions for the architecture design in the 6G era.
The latest issue of the 5GPPP newsflash is now available (Issue 71)!
In this issue you may find information about activities related to 5G projects across Europe. You may also find details, about EVOLVED-5G’s participation in IEEE MeditCom 2022. Find it online here: https://5g-ppp.eu/newsflash-december-2022/
Harilaos Koumaras EVOLVED-5G technical manager, presented “5G Network Programmability and Openness: A first Step towards 6G with native-AI capabilities” at IEEE Conference on Standards for Communications and Networking which took place on Thessaloniki, Greece on 28-30 November 2022. IEEE Conference on Standards for Communications and Networking (CSCN 2022) will deliver a rich technical program discussing the future of mobile communications systems, offering distinguished Keynotes, Panels, Tutorials and Technical Sessions. The Technical Sessions will consist of technical papers reviewed and selected by an international technical program committee representing both academia and industry, with a strong standardization background. IEEE CSCN 2022 will be an excellent networking and publicity event with strong presence of industry, offering the opportunity for academics and industrial people to meet and exchange ideas and information. This is indeed one of the main objectives of the conference. IEEE CSCN 2022 will be also a platform for presenting and discussing standards-related topics in the areas of communications, networking, cloud computing, and related disciplines, facilitating standards development as well as cooperation among the key players.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the IEEE CSCN 2022 conference will run in hybrid mode (i.e., using remote audio/video support and as an in-person event). The event will be collocated with the IEEE Standards Thessaloniki Summit 2022 with participation from all Standards Developing Organizations (SDOs). Furthermore, another 3 events will be collocated, an Industrial Workshop with Industrial Demos and Presentations, an IEEE Young Professionals (YP) Training on Standards/Standardization and a Mini YP/Students/Early Stage Researchers Forum.
