The SUNRISE-6G flagship project aims to establish a robust experimental infrastructure across Europe, taking significant steps towards realising 6G technology. The SUNRISE-6G project is an ambitious initiative to develop a comprehensive experimental infrastructure for 6G technology across Europe. With 28 partners from academia, industry, and research organisations, SUNRISE-6G is dedicated to fostering innovation, enhancing connectivity, and driving the future of telecommunications.
eBOS has a leading technical role in the project. eBOS is leading the development of the detailed low-level design of the SUNRISE-6G Portal, the Lifecycle Management experimentation services, and their constituent components. Additionally, eBOS will upgrade and offer their State-of-the-Art 5G/6G Testbed for the SUNRISE-6G project whilst implementing the proposed configurations to enhance it further and expand it to a federated version of 6G testbeds.
eBOS plays a crucial role in managing and ensuring the success of a project, leading quality assurance, and ensuring that project outcomes meet high-quality standards. This involves implementing processes and methodologies to monitor and improve the quality of deliverables. eBOS also leads the effort to identify, assess, and mitigate risks associated with the project to minimise potential issues impacting the project’s success. Additionally, eBOS is in charge of managing project data. This includes monitoring project-related information’s organisation, storage, and security, ensuring it is easily accessible and meets EU data standards. Additionally, eBOS is leading the project’s Dissemination and Communication activities, ensuring the creation of impact and the online presence of the project’s results for several stakeholder and end-user groups.
