PRAGMA, has developed an innovative OEM IoT framework capable to collect, process, analyze, compare and present information collected at different architectural nodes of an end-to-end ecosystem. One of its major advantages is the embedded AI technology for on-the-fly data analysis. Indicative embedded AI algorithms are: anomaly detection; energy disaggregation; energy load and generation forecasting; trend analysis; inference mechanisms (occupancy, comfort, activity); advanced recommendation engine; pattern recognition (deep learning & ML methodologies). Within the project, Pragma will extend the architecture of the embedded AI algorithms, from conventional to federated. Thus, Pragma will be able to support either centralized or decentralized AI architectures, depending on the problem, the amount of data and the customer. Thus, it will gain an added value service that will exploited in the competitive IoT market.

Demand side solutions and improved energy efficiency are among the most cost effective ways to support the transition to climate neutrality, reduce pollution and raw materials use, to create inclusive growth and employment in Europe, to bring down costs for consumers, to reduce our import dependency and redirect investments towards smart and sustainable infrastructure. The transition to a decentralised and climate neutral energy system will greatly benefit from the use of digital technologies which will enable buildings and industrial facilities to become inter-active elements in the energy system by optimising energy consumption, distributed generation and storage and vis-à-vis the energy system. They will also trigger new business opportunities and revenue streams for up-graded, innovative energy services which valorise energy savings and flexible consumption.

The expected impact of the project is to contribute to the “Efficient and sustainable use of energy, accessible for all is ensured through a clean energy system and a just transition”, notably through

1. Technological and socio-economic breakthroughs for achieving climate neutrality and the transition to zero pollution of the building stock by 2050, based on inclusive and people-centric R&I (more detailed information below).
2. Increased energy efficiency in industry and reducing industry’s Greenhouse Gas (GHG) and air pollutant emissions through recovery, upgrade and/or conversion of industrial excess (waste) heat and through electrification of heat generation.

Pragma will lead the definition and delivery of CHRONICLE’s Renovation Planner, and coordinate the preparation and deployment of the project’s pilot site.

The overall aim of CREAMARE project is to create a trans-national and cross-sectorial cooperation framework in which cultural institutions, scientific/research bodies, creative professionals and technology experts co-produce CCI applications and media contents to communicate, disseminate and promote maritime and underwater cultural heritage and, simultaneously, raise the awareness about relevant social problems like pollution and other environmental threats that affects the oceans.

The project will test the proposed framework by involving marine archaeologists, ocean scientists and experts from the creative sector (storytellers, video makers, graphic designers, 3D artists, level designers, etc.) to co-produce, as a demo, a serious game in which the player will be able to visit highly realistic 3D digital replica of underwater sites of the Mediterranean Sea that are particularly relevant from the cultural and/or the ecological point of view. During these virtual dives, the player will solve enigma and challenges related to both the cultural heritage (shipwrecks, finds, submerged cities, etc.) and the environmental threats (e.g.: oil spills from shipwrecks, ghost nets that kill fishes and marine animals, illegal fishing and unsustainable boating practices, etc.).

Within CREAMARE project, Pragma’s main responsibility is the design, development and delivery of the collaborative digital platform, the ICT Advanced information system that provides tools and creative instruments to assist both creators and cultural professionals in learning and practicing creative co-production for CH.

TALES is a growing SME in the brewery’s domain. TALES plans to improve its production quality and expand its capacity to accommodate larger orders addressing the continuously growing interest of the market. Currently, the quality of the product/ beer is measured and assured completely empirically and manually. It is measured manually by tasting the beer and evaluate its taste, acidity, etc. in an empirically manner. Furthermore, the quality of the product is assured by ordering the “same” quality of malt and maintaining (manually) the “same” conditions during the various phases (e.g. mashing, boiling, cooling, fermentation, etc.) within the brewery’s production line. Therefore, TALES seeks the quality improvement and assurance at its production line that will increase the production flexibility, adaptability and automation enabling TALES to meet its scale-up objectives. TITAN will realize an IoT system for monitoring and control the quality of the products within brewery’s production line.

Challenges:

• Product quality monitoring and control within all intermediate steps of the production line;
• Product quality assessment and correlation with malt quality and environmental condition within various
  phases of the production line;
• Production of different, new flavours with improved quality on a safe manner;
• Real-time continuous monitoring and control of the production line;

PRAGMA, will be responsible for developing the prediction and simulation algorithms, as well as the TITAN’s HMIs and visual analytics.
