The main objective of the CONTROL4COVID project is the development and commercial exploitation of an innovative product to address the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences, by offering a complete platform which integrates the major stakeholders in a secure and reliable way, as well as the scientific community to help build a state-of-the-art decision support system

The Malloc project aims to develop a software solution that protects users’ data by safeguarding their mobile devices against unauthorised or unattended data recordings or transmissions. An ever-growing number of data leakages have been reported over the past few years. Many factors contribute to this phenomenon ranging from poor programming practices to intended but unjustified

The MARI-Sense project aims at developing the MARI-Sense Cognitive Decision Support System for the planning of maritime activities such as tracking surface vehicles, autonomous identification of polluting vessels, detection of swimmers and divers, and optimization of maritime spaces, amongst others. Sustaining the high activity levels of maritime and coastal tourism and maritime transport and shipping

The aim of the CORONASENSE project is to develop and bring to the market an innovative software to assess in real-time the Indoor Air Quality specifically for conditions that enable the spread of COVID-19 in large public indoor spaces. Poor Indoor Air Quality has been proven to act as an enabling mechanism for airborne virus

The aim of this MSCA fellowship is to transfer Bayesian statistical methodologies in the area of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and contribute towards the efficient decision-making and fault diagnosis capabilities of intelligent vehicles (IVs), as well as improve their collective behavior when interacting with other vehicles and the road infrastructure. The research activity BITS is

The AURA project aims at improving the Indoor Air-Quality monitoring in large, energy efficient buildings and reducing the overall cost of the monitoring system by developing an innovative software. During the last decade, over 100.000 deaths in Europe were caused by household (indoor) air pollution. This phenomenon occurs due to the high increase of the

PVgnosis aims at developing a software platform and associated tools needed for delivering advanced diagnosis, predictive maintenance and intelligent visual inspection on installed photovoltaic (PV) plants towards the massive adoption of solar energy. The solar photovoltaic energy is considered to be an important and most cost-effective type of renewable energy source and it is expected

Although Cyprus has adopted all the relevant prerequisites and adapted its national legislation and policy with regards to energy regulation and energy markets as a full member state of EU, Cyprus energy market is still in its infantry levels compared to the envisaged EU framework liberalization and completion levels. The innovation project “EnergyXchange” envisions to

The KIOS Research and Innovation Center of Excellence (CoE) at the University of Cyprus is participating in an Innovation Action project funded by the EU under the Horizon 2020 programme. The project is titled “CARAMEL” and brings together 15 organizations from 8 European countries with complementary expertise and skills. It addresses the cybersecurity challenge of

We spend 85-90% of our lives in buildings and require them to offer a comfortable and safe environment, as well as to be operated efficiently for economic reasons and compliance with EU and national regulations. As a result, most commercial buildings are already equipped with Building Automation Systems (BAS) and sub-systems that monitor and control

The REALFON (Resource Allocation in Flexible Optical Networks) project aims at developing novel optimization algorithms for the efficient utilization of resources in future optical networks taking into account the security of the physical layer. The ever-increasing growth of traffic in backbone networks is expected to exceed the available capacity provided by the fixed-grid wavelength division

The KIOS Research and Innovation Center of Excellence at the University of Cyprus is coordinating a new innovative research project entitled “EMPOWER”. This project aims to develop new tools and technologies specifically suited for the Cyprus power system in order to further enhance its stability and reliability, even in the presence of a very high
