InterDigital to showcase AdvantEDGE Platform at 2019 Edge Computing Congress
September 18 2019 - 3:00AM
InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile and video technology
research and development company, today announced that it will be
participating in the 2019 Edge Computing Congress (ECC), the
premier global event dedicated to edge computing. During the ECC,
InterDigital (located at ECC Stand 20) will showcase AdvantEDGE, an
agile mobile edge emulation platform that enables users to
experiment with edge applications and network designs.
Edge Computing Congress, now in its fifth year, unites
technology providers, telecommunications operators and businesses
to highlight the wireless technologies that both enable 5G and
embed application resources at the “edges” of access networks,
closer to end users and devices. The ECC will be held in London
from September 17 - 19.
At ECC, InterDigital will demonstrate the AdvantEDGE mobile edge
emulation platform, which supports experimentation in mobile edge
applications and networks. To display the benefits of the platform,
InterDigital will run a live AI-enabled video augmentation
application that provides real-time video stylization from the
network edge. Using AdvantEDGE, InterDigital will run the OpenRTiST
app, an open source project from Carnegie Mellon University that
captures live video on a mobile device and stylizes the content
based on famous artwork, using local edge nodes.
In addition to supporting AI and GPUs on emulated edge nodes,
AdvantEDGE also enables cluster deployment across a set of machines
for scalability and features the ETSI MEC Edge Location Service
API. To drive interest and collaborative use of AdvantEDGE,
InterDigital will make the platform publicly available for the
first time in open source.
“The journey to 5G and beyond will see a growing
number of applications and services move to the network edge, and
the AdvantEDGE platform will accelerate development using new edge
architectures,” said Henry Tirri, InterDigital’s CTO and EVP of
Research and Development. “Edge computing, coupled with
ultra-reliable low latency communications, will enable rich
multimedia experiences in more devices and applications. We are
proud to showcase and share our AdvantEDGE platform with
enterprises, operators, universities and other collaborators to
support new use cases and applications of this solution.”
In addition to presenting the AdvantEDGE demo at
the Edge Computing Congress, Robert Gazda, Senior Director of
Engineering at InterDigital will also participate in a keynote
discussion called “The Edge Leaders’ Industry Outlook,” on
Wednesday, September 18 at 11:50. The keynote will also feature
wireless leaders from Sprint, Ovum, and OfCom in a discussion that
explores the primary areas of opportunity and challenge in the edge
computing ecosystem.
