SIXG explores how serverless applications and programmable 6G networks can adapt together—bringing computing closer to where data is created and decisions are needed.
Smart manufacturing and connected mobility guide the research, with early-stage technologies evaluated in controlled laboratory demonstrations.
THE SIXG APPROACH
Devices ↔ Edge ↔ Cloud
Monitoring and AI coordinate computing and network resources across layers.
Simplified research concept, adapted from the SIXG proposal.
01
Develop a platform for real-time analytics and AI workloads.
02
Build a lightweight WebAssembly runtime for serverless functions.
03
Investigate in-network deployment, service migration and privacy-preserving telemetry.
04
Tailor network resources to application needs while improving energy efficiency.
05
Coordinate function placement, resource allocation and application layout across computing and network layers.
06
Integrate and evaluate the framework through three proof-of-concept demonstrations in manufacturing and ADAS scenarios.
07
Contribute findings, software and technical proposals to research, open-source and standardization communities.
