The European Commission published three reports from the High-Level Forum on European Standardization’s workstreams: Workstream 7 on Wind Power, Workstream 14 on Data Interoperability, and Workstream 15 on Critical Raw Materials. The three reports include recommendations on standardization in the three different fields and how they can support the relevant sectors across Europe.
This CWA presents a methodology for the data-driven management of production processes from inception to operation, which allows to document their lifecycle and gain knowledge through its application. It provides a description of the methodological approach along with the introduction to its primary objectives.
The planned CEN and CENELEC Workshop intends to develop a CEN and CENELEC Workshop Agreement (CWA) describing a 'Methodology for the data-driven management of production processes', which allows to document the process lifecycle and gain knowledge through its application.
The subjects of Data, Dataspaces, Cloud and Edge are progressing continuously and are widely affecting the industry in all sectors.
More data is being generated than ever before. The global volume of data has doubled between 2018 and 2022 and is expected to double again between 2022 and 2025.
Data centres are a core element of the IT infrastructure supporting digital transformation. They contribute to a sustainable economy by improving the efficiency along the value creation chain. Nevertheless, data centres consume a significant amount of energy and other resources and are, as a result, also at risk in terms of their environmental sustainability. Due to emerging technologies and applications such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the resource consumption of data centres is constantly increasing.
Various anonymisation and pseudonymisation techniques exist, some of which are standardized. Nevertheless, the risk of a data breach for anonymised data and therefore that of re-identification of individuals remain significant. Therefore, institutions and commercial companies that may create or disseminate databases without identifiers are thus looking for a simple tool to measure this extreme risk of re-identification.
More data is being generated than ever before. The global volume of data has doubled between 2018 and 2022 and is expected to double again between 2022 and 2025.
Data centres have a notoriously high demand of resources: the massively increasing demand for IT services of all kinds continues to lead to rising consumption of (among others) electricity, water and refrigerants. Therefore, it is part of the daily business of a data centre operator to optimise facilities and infrastructures in terms of energy consumption and thus improve the environmental sustainability of the data centre.
Privacy and personal data protection are essential in our current society as our offline and digital experiences are increasingly entwined. To ensure that these essential values are taken into account early on in the development of products and services, newly developed EN 17529 ‘Data protection and privacy by design and by default’ provides manufacturers and service providers with requirements before, or independently of, any specific application integration.
