TRANSACT Impact Webinar
TRANSACT Impact Webinar: Reference architecture and methodology for transforming safety-critical cyber-physical systems from localised standalone systems into safe and secure distributed solutions.
presented by: Javier Coronel Parada & Teun Hendriks
This presentation focuses on the TRANSACT reference architecture and its distributed multi-tier approach, which is based on a computing continuum that spans from the CPS device tier, through the edge tier, to the cloud tier. Outsourcing functionality to the edge and cloud tiers can lead to improved performance, reduced execution time, or enhanced precision in computations as long as the quality of service requirements are met and safety is not compromised. The description will be complemented with a medical use case showing how the TRANSACT approach and reference architecture can be applied in a hospital. Having a cloud-connection available during live treatment of patients would enable a surgeon to e.g. request the cloud to perform the latest 3D image processing analysis, to provide the best insight for the medical procedure at hand.
