Multimodal Stream Fusion
From canaries sensing danger in coal mines to drones deploying in areas too risky for manned flight, humans continue to engineer novel sensors to overcome the limitations of human senses. Modern-day smart sensors translate the physical world into digital streams by producing a digital representation of the physical quantity being measured.

Self-Optimizing 5G Applications in Network Slices
A decade ago, large-scale services like enterprise resource planning (ERP) were a corner-case scenario, often designed as one-off systems. Today, applications like social networks, automated trading and video streaming have made large-scale services the norm rather than the exception.

Heterogeneous Cluster Computing
Traditional enterprise applications currently run on platforms that are complicated to use and expensive to build and maintain. Although new IT solutions that use dynamically scalable and virtualized clusters of shared computing resources have the potential to dramatically cut costs associated with delivery of enterprise IT services, many obstacles must be overcome.

Cosmic – System Software for Efficient Xeon Phi Coprocessor Sharing
COSMIC* is NEC’s system software that enables seamless Xeon Phi coprocessor sharing. It is completely transparent to applications and all other system software components. COSMIC is useful in organizations where several users share one or more Xeon Phi-based servers. It can reduce capital costs by efficiently utilizing fewer servers.
