Workshop on IoT, Big Data and Real-time data processing
Organized by the Laboratory of Parallel, Embedded architectures and Intensive Computing (LAPECI)
June 30-July 1, 2025 | University of Oran1, Oran, Algeria
About the Workshop
These thematic days are dedicated to exploring the latest innovations in the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, and real-time data processing. Through a blend of theoretical sessions and hands-on workshops, participants will gain practical experience working with time-series data from IoT sensors and discover advanced tools for real-time monitoring and decision-making.
At this event, an advanced platform for real-time processing of IoT sensor data will be presented, with a specific focus on agricultural applications. The main purpose is to introduce IoT data collection methods using sensors, ESP32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi. The WALLeSmart project will also be presented, showing how Big Data, Cloud Computing and IoT can revolutionize digital agriculture by improving farm management and traceability.
In addition, the National Research Program project 'EUB-AGR1: Integrated, efficient and intelligent management of bio-treated wastewater for agriculture' will be presented. A prototype IoT platform for real-time monitoring of wastewater quality will be presented.
1 This event is partly funded by the National Research Program project 'EUB-AGR'.
