TEACHING D2.2 - Refined requirement specifications and preliminary release of the computing and communication platform

This deliverable is aimed at providing an updated report on state-of-the-art analysis, conceptual design and implementation of the Distributed Computing and Communication platform for CPSoS, that we refer as High-Performance Computing and Communication Infrastructure (HPC2I). After providing an update on the State-of-the-art for some of the related research activities we summarize the overall design and features of the HPC2I. We present a more concrete and detailed design of the conceptual, high-level system architecture previously described at M12. Said infrastructure lays the foundation of the TEACHING platform and supports the execution of project use cases. This deliverable also focuses on the implementation of the different software tools and prototypes that compose the HPC2I, highlighting the relationships they have with the work package activities (tasks). For each of these tools is also provided the rationale and a description of the base technologies on top of which the actual software components are developed.
