ENABLE is a new Science Foundation Ireland Spoke on Smart Communities involving the collaboration of CONNECT with Lero and Insight – two other SFI research centres.
ENABLE will be led by Professor Siobhán Clarke, Principal Investigator at CONNECT, and Professor at the School of Computer Science and Statistics in Trinity College Dublin.
ENABLE aims to connect communities to smart urban environments through the Internet of Things (IoT). It will address the challenges that currently limit the potential benefits of IoT for communities by enabling smarter buildings, more efficient transportation/mobility, better handling of environmental issues, better decision support, and enhanced cyber and infrastructure security and data privacy.
