SENIX

Network Sensoring and Inspection

Started at: 01-03-2018
Ends on: 01-03-2021

Budget: 2.491.765,52€

Description

SENIX aims at transforming the networks and infrastructures associated to the utilities sector through the deployment and adaptation of Industry 4.0 concepts, working towards a Utilities 4.0 scenario.

The project will research new technologies to promote the digitalization, sensoring and monitoring of service provider’s networks with the objective of optimizing operations in terms of efficiency and costs (maintenance, investment and renewal costs). The project will also develop pilot tests based on specific use cases related to the utilities sector.
