The first year of the VALU3S project
The VALU3S project is now reaching the end of its first year and is experiencing one of its busiest periods. During this year, and despite having to deal with a global pandemic, we managed to reach the project objectives set out for the period. This was made possible, through an active participation and contributions of the project partners as well as the many online meetings that replaced the initially planned face-to-face meetings. We have also had an active involvement in dissemination and communication of the project results through continuous reporting of the project results in the project’s social media platforms and participations in conferences, workshops, fairs that resulted in publication of a set of scientific articles that are available on the project website.
 
We are looking forward to finalization of the first year of the project and planning for the coming year, which will, to a great extent, be dedicated to implementation of technologies (methods and tools) that contribute to addressing the project objectives. These technologies will then be used mainly in the last year of the project to evaluate the project demonstrators as well as to show the time- and cost-related improvements made available through the application of the technologies on the demonstrators. The coming year will also be an exciting year where lots of activities will be performed in connection with our web-based repository that hosts the different vital components needed to conduct a V&V activity.
 
I would like to once again thank all the project partners for their active contributions to the project. Also, a special thank to you, readers of this newsletter, for showing interest in the project and following-up on its activities and results. Stay tuned for additional project-related news, results, and updates and hope that you find this newsletter informative and useful.

Security of Automated systems – exploiting risk assessment as countermeasure against cyber-threats
Automation is the key factor that will be increasingly present in the factories of the future. This type of systems is used in a wide range of applications, such as control and monitoring systems, data security applications, factory automation systems, automated message response systems, autonomous vehicles etc. The rise in automation leads to significant advantages in economic and safety terms.

Collaborative robotics – A way to ease recycling and enhance labour market inclusion
Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) represents the fastest-growing type of waste in Europe. The increasing levels of electronic waste, inappropriate elimination, and insecure treatment pose significant risks to the environment and human health. Over the last decades, the ever-higher amount of waste electrical and electronic equipment has become a significant problem worldwide.
