S partnerji Netis Group, blockchain tehnologij in walt.id sodelujemo v projektnem ekosistemu eSSIF-Lab. Poudarek dejavnosti raziskav in razvoja projekta AD&VM bodo #SSI Authority Delegation, primeri uporabe, tokovi procesov, podatkovni modeli in njihova uporaba v scenarijih, kot so javna uprava in/ali njena uskladitev z #EBSI, #ESSIF in #eidas.
H2020 DE4A
Digital Europe for All
Partners with H2020 DE4A where we conduct research in the field of blockchain technology and digital identities. We also participate in the project "Study Abroad" pilot.
Hyperledger Frameworks
Pilot tests
Implementation of pilot tests on Hyperledger Frameworks: Fabric, Iroha and Burrow.
IOT & IOTA
Internet of things meets distributed ledger
Setting up an IOTA private network and collecting real-time sensor data (temperature, humidity, brightness, etc.) from the work environment and sending them to IOTA tangle or IOTA MAM Channel and analytical display of data from the IOTA network.
ECTA
Efficient Collaboration Team Autonomous
The Blockchain Lab: UM team advises on the assessment, decision making and implementation of the ECTAsolution, which will be based on blockchain technology concepts. Participates in the implementation of a smart contract that will allow startup fundraising (ICOs) to execute a project. It also assists in providing information security for design and development.
Smart InsurTech
PKP 2018 - Smart contracts based on blockchain in business processes
"Po kreativni poti do znanja" is a student orieted project proposing innovative solutions based on smart contracts and blockchain in the insurance industry. The use of these enables the removal of intermediaries or unnecessary manual work, as well as the automated, transparent and speedy implementation of business processes, which reduces costs and puts the insurance company in step with time.
We have developed and tested a prototype of smart contract based insurance service. We also created guidelines for developing such solutions.
H2020 Concordia
Cyber security Competence for Research and Innovation
Partners with H2020 Concordia project where we conduct research in the field of blockchain technology.
EduCTX
Global plaform for knowledge certificate management
Ecosistem EduCTX is a global decentralized platform for the awarding of digital micro certificates to trusted institutions. The platform provides a complete and unified digital environment for managing, awarding and presenting certificates to individuals and educational institutions, businesses and organizations. At the same time, it enables the development of independent digital services that offer organizations the ability to automate the evaluation of individuals' skills and knowledge.
Platform represents the initiative EduCTX, which seeks to bring different interest groups together to create a globally effective, streamlined and versatile environment with the aim of avoiding linguistic and administrative barriers.
our academic achievements
Research activity
As a team of multidisciplinary researchers and developers, we focus on different aspects of blockchain technologies. Our work includes scientific articles, professional publications, student theses as well as patent applications.
