Abstract
A report that includes the data management strategy enabling data sharing, data privacy and data ownership. The document outlines how data will be handled during the project, and even after the project is completed, describing what data will be collected, processed, or generated and following what methodology and standards, whether and how this data will be shared and/or made open, and how it will be curated and preserved. The document will be revised at M18 and M36.

Abstract
Report on the current work in all the relevant research areas of NebulOuS project and capture of relevant requirements. Bird’s view on the general architecture of the system and should lay a foundation for the integration. Each component will be described through its functional and non-functional requirements.

Abstract
This document discusses NebulOuS’ approach to resource discovery. It presents the models underpinning NebulOuS’ resource discovery mechanism, including: a declarative model of expressing hyper-distributed components and their deployment characteristics; a declarative model for capturing QoS requirements attached to application components; a semantic representation of the capabilities and characteristics of a pool of CC resources; a model for semantically representing QoS requirements; and finally, a model for determining optimal application component placement based on the current available resource capabilities and characteristics, the component’s QoS requirements, as well as any user-expressed preferences regarding deployment. The document also presents an initial description of a prototype of NebulOuS resource discovery mechanism.

Abstract
This deliverable presents the refined semantic foundations and resource discovery mechanisms of NebulOuS. Building on D2.2, it consolidates three complementary semantic models describing (i) the capabilities of cloud–edge resources, (ii) the QoS requirements of application components, and (iii) the meta-quality constraints governing service delivery. It also presents the enhanced Resource Discovery Mechanism, which has been extended to support edge device registration with the Scheduling Abstraction Layer (SAL) and dynamic integration into deployment scenarios.

Abstract
This deliverable is the textual enclosure to the resource management software produced for the first release of the NebulOuS platform. It intends to provide an overview and background of the implementation emphasising on the theoretical foundations and architecture of the software. It therefore serves as a necessary first introduction for a user of NebulOuS leaving the details and implementational details to the open-source code itself and the software wiki.

Abstract
Early results of task T4.1, and T4.2, on the deployment and management of distributed applications on the cloud-to-edge continuum, particularly focusing on resource pool management. Besides traditional cloud-native workloads, we also present our plan to accommodate serverless applications on the compute continuum. We introduce the details of our mechanism for the automatic establishment of secure overlay networks between the distributed compute resources (T4.4) and detail our approach to provide fine-grained policy-controlled access control mechanisms on the provisioned clusters (T4.5).

Abstract
This deliverable reports on the 1st iteration of all WP5 related NebulOuS technology. First, it reports on an efficient monitoring mechanism for processing Fog-enabled applications monitoring data. Second, it reports on a distributed IoT architecture for time series and data storage and management, with secure stream data processing capabilities able to run the anomaly detection models, both at the edge, and the cloud. Third, it reports on NebulOuS technology for autonomously driving reconfigurations in transient cloud computing continuum. Last, this deliverable reports on an asynchronous message-based API that drives the communications among NebulOuS components.
