3rd Internal Workshop

The 3rd internal workshop was held on 21 Feb 2024 to discuss the current progress of our project and the challenges that we are facing at this stage.

In the 3rd workshop, there was a rich exchange of knowledge, fostering collaborative discussions to identify solutions to the existing difficulties. This synergy of thoughts and expertise was further enriched by the contribution of our Early Researchers (ERs) and Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs), who presented a total of 8 insightful presentations. The presentations introduced the latest developments, findings, and methodologies employed within the project's scope including Aerial-Terrestrial network, remote sensing, network management, lightweight and secure AI, which showcased the significant progress we have made and highlighted areas that required further attention and optimization.
