The work of the OMiLAB@JOANNEUM RESEARCH Node provides new research results in the areas of Artificial Intelligence/Optimization, Semantic Service Technologies, and Intelligent Decision Support for use in the Edge-to-Cloud continuum.

The OMiLAB@JOANNEUM RESEARCH is an IoT innovation space for innovation and development. It is both a physical and virtual space equipped with IoT tools (e.g., low-cost sensors, gateways, RFID/NFC tools) to explore the development and design of AI methods and optimization techniques, as well as to demonstrate the benefits of these data-driven IoT techniques for decision-making.
The goal is for all relevant data to flow digitally throughout the product creation and use process. This allows for quick feedback loops from production to development, which improves future service concepts. The CCM research group focuses on the implementation of intelligent services using various AI and optimization methods.
