FEDERATES Achieves Key Milestone with Completion of Architecture and Systems Engineering Studies
The FEDERATES consortium has successfully completed Work Package 3 (WP3): Architecture and Systems Engineering Studies, marking a significant milestone in the project’s development. Over the past 22 months, the partners of the consortium – comprising companies and research teams - have collaborated to define the FEDERATES reference architecture, under the leadership of Indra as WP3 Leader.
The Reference Architecture provides an essential guidance for system design.
WP3 delivered four major outcomes:
- FEDERATES Reference architecture principles and Rules, led by Indra as Task leader
- FEDERATES Main Components Report, led by Leonardo as Task leader
- Study of Security Environment and Implications on FEDERATES Architecture, led by Leonardo as Task leader
- FEDERATES Reference Architecture, led by TNO as Task leader
Together, these deliverables capture the most relevant discussions and analyses carried out during this phase and they will support the upcoming project work packages and remain valuable beyond the project itself.
Furthermore, they pave the way for the application of MSaaS solutions and contribute to advancing the overall ambition of FEDERATES.
With WP3 successfully concluded on schedule, the FEDERATES project moves forward with renewed momentum towards its next objectives.
