On the 22nd and 23rd of March, the second annual workshop of the Dream Go project, "Real-time demand response and intelligent direct load control", is taking place in Salamanca. The reason for these annual meetings is to give opportunity to all participants to catch up on the progress of the project, the Instituto Politécnico Do Porto (Portugal), Universitaet Duisburgessen (Germany) and ISA Energy Efficiency (Portugal) Nebusens SL (Spain) and Discovergy (Germany) and, of course, our colleagues from the BISITE Research Group (University of Salamanca, Spain). This project has been in constant development since February 2015 and will be completed by January 2019.
The monitoring of data in different areas and the subsequent intelligent control has become an important field of research and development that can be applied in various domains: patients, the elderly, animals, crops and soils.
These possibilities have been the reason for the creation of the EKRUCAmI Project in 2013, which had been in continuous development until the end of last year, a period of fruitful international collaboration between the Polytechnic Institute of Porto (Portugal), Catholic University of Daegu (Republic of Korea) National University of Sunchon (Republic of Korea) and the BISITE Research Group (University of Salamanca, Spain).
Energy efficiency adapted to the user
The SURF project proposes an improvement in urban mobility. The project includes the participation of the Polytechnic University of Valencia, King Juan Carlos University and the BISITE Research Group of The University of Salamanca.
Framed within the challenge of the Sustainable, Smart and Inclusive Transport strategy, one of the seven social challenges identified by the European Commission in the Horizon 2020 program, it aims to contribute to the new model of smart city
Technology applied to animal production
The project funded by the Deputation of Salamanca is a collaboration between the Livestock Ángel Santiago García Martín and the BISITE research group. The main objective of the project is to develop a platform to solve certain problems detected in cattle.
The online platform PIAR is presented as a technological challenge within the framework of cybersecurity.
Although its initial purpose was detect potential network threats, since that makes it possible to find influencers and identify how they act, its marketing orientation can make it an essential tool in improving the brand image of any company.

SOGESCLOUD project
How to manage the human resources of your company with a single platform?
The SOGESCLOUD project is a tool that facilitates the management of human resources.
It consists of a system of social computing on a cloud computing environment with a configurable architecture that adapts to the main needs of each company.
DREAM-GO brings together pioneering research teams in key areas such electrical smart grids and artificial intelligence, and innovative companies with a wide market experience. It is a collaboration between the University of Salamanca (Spain), the Polytechnic Institute of Porto (Portugal), the University of Duisburg-Essen (Germany) as well as ISA Energy Efficiency (Portugal), Nebusens S.L. (Spain) and Discovergy (Germany).
The SPECTRA project, a National R&D consortium formed by 8 companies and supported by another 10 research organizations including the BISITE research group of the University of Salamanca, is part of the "Cien 2015" funded by the Centre for Technology and Industry development (CDTI).
In order to improve the interpretation of retinal images, the BISITE research group developed Altair, a software that expedites and strengthens the analysis of such images, automating tasks that are currently done manually. With regard to previous systems, Altair offers greater precision in the analysis of data having worked on clearing algorithms, which makes it possible to obtain more information from the images, and to do so automatically...
The use of robots to perform complicated and/or dangerous tasks is not new. They have been used for years in the field of health, for surveillance, and for the location and deactivation of explosives, to name only a few examples.
However, the interaction among different robotic devices in an effort to achieve a common goal is much less frequent, and not because robots are conceived and work according to heterogeneous architectures and computing languages, making automated coordination difficult...
