Visits to International Teams

Research Stays Abroad

• CIC-IPN, Mexico:

  Participants : Gabriel Antoniu, Alexandru Costan, Luis Eduardo Pineda Morales, Pierre Matri.

  From October 31 to November 4, four members of our team visited the Informatics Research Centre of the National Polytechnic Institute (CIC-IPN for its acronym in Spanish) in Mexico City, Mexico.

  The visit was a follow up to previous discussions held with the Network and Data Science Laboratory. The goal is to create a scientific collaboration on the grounds of cloud-based big data for smart cities, for which a proposal has been submitted in August to the program ECOS-NORD (Mexico-France). The visit included scientific presentations from both teams, a plenary talk from KerData to the IPN community, as well as discussions on future common research lines. Additionally, we held meetings with the partnering coordinator to talk about possible funding sources for students exchanges.
