Digital transformation relies on a sophisticated infrastructure of networks, computing and services. The availability, reliability, performance, interoperability and energy efficiency of these systems are major challenges that the digital sciences must meet to foster innovation, sovereignty and industrial competitiveness.

SILECS, the Cloud/Fog/Edge/IoT part of the SLICES-FR platform, enables prototyping and reproducible experiments at all levels of the Cloud IoT continuum. It meets the experimental needs of researchers in networks, systems, telecoms, IoT and other fields. The main objective of SILECS and SLICES-FR is to build a tool for experimentation that fosters the design of new services and applications in distributed computing, edge computing, reprogrammable wired or wireless networks and IoT, using a diversity of technologies on all aspects of the data chain, software or hardware, to meet the needs of the community.
