Description:

The ACCUS (Adaptive Cooperative Control in Urban (sub)Sytems) is an ambitious Project meant to achieve a better sustainable management and to engage synergies in order to improve citizens’ quality of life. It is motivated by the societal challenge “Smart buildings and communities in the future” and the supporting scenarios “Mobility for everyone”,”Energy control in the urban and rural environment” and “Security” as defined in the ARTEMISIA Strategic Research Agenda (SRA). The ACCUS project is focused on the integration of urban subsystems such an intelligent transport systems, city light systems and energy management systems. Rather than developing solutions for specific applications and scenarios, the ACCUS project will develop theoretical framework (e.g. semantic interoperability concepts) and practical framework (e.g. methodology, reference architecture) to design new applications within converged scenarios.

Outline

The ACCUS project has been co-funded by the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism of the Spanish Government (Ref. ART-010000-2013-2 ACCUS, 333020-1 ) and JTI ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking of the European Commision. This project is motivated by the societal challenge “Smart buildings and communities of the future” and the supporting scenarios “Mobility for everyone”, “Energy control in the urban and rural environment” and “Security” as defined in the ARTEMISIA Strategic Research Agenda (SRA). ACCUS proposes an advanced solution of adaptive cooperative control. ACCUS aims at three innovations: 1. Provide an integration and coordination platform for urban systems to build applications across urban systems 2. Provide an adaptive and cooperative control architecture and corresponding algorithms for urban subsystems in order to optimize their combined performance 3. Provide general methodologies and tools for creating real-time collaborative applications for systems of systems The ACCUS system and tools will be proposed to be demonstrated in the cities of Gdansk (Poland) and Ljubljana (Slovenia).

Resumen

El proyecto ACCUS ha sido co-financiado por el Ministerio de Industria, Energía y Turismo del Gobierno Español (Ref. ART-010000-2013-2 ACCUS, 333020-1 ), y la JTI ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking de la Comisión Europea. El proyecto ACCUS viene motivado por reto social “Edificios Inteligentes y Comunidades del futuro” en el marco de los escenarios “Movilidad para todos”, “Control energético en entornos urbanos y rurales” y “Seguridad”, todos ellos comprendidos en la Agenda Estratégica de Investigación (SRA) de ARTEMISIA. ACCUS propone una solución avanzada de control adaptativo cooperativo en entornos urbanos, soportado por tres ejes de innovación: 1- Creación de una plataforma de coordiación de (sub)sistemas urbanos, sobre la que se contruyan differntes aplicaciones. 2- Diseño de arquitectura adaptativa-cooperativa sobre la que se despliegan los algoritmos encaragdos de optimizar el rendimiento de los (sub) sistemas urbanos. 3- Provisión de metodologías generales y herramientas utilizadas para la ceración de aplicaciones colaborativas en tiempo real en el contexto de “systems of systems”. Tanto la arquitectura ACCUS, así como las herramientas, algoritmos y aplicaciones desarrolladas se han propuesto en los pilotos que se llevarán a cabo en las ciudades de Gdańsk (Polonia) y Ljubljana (Eslovenia).
