  • Abstract
    The “Computing for the Future of the Planet” project is aimed at the intersection of computing and sustainability. An update on progress in the four main areas will be given: an optimal digital infrastructure, sensing and optimising with a global world model, reliably predicting and reacting to the environment, and digital alternatives to physical activities. Practical industrial examples will be presented in addition to longer term research goals.
