Open Research Infrastructures and Toolkits for 6G
1st Workshop on Open Research Infrastructures and Toolkits for 6G
In conjunction with
ACM Special Interest Group on Data Communication 2025
September 8-11, 2025
São Francisco Convent
Coimbra, Portugal
The transition from 5G to 6G requires a fundamental shift towards AI-driven, programmable, and federated research infrastructures that support large-scale, reproducible, and practical experimentation, as well as promote small-scale, local innovations for connecting the unconnected. Unlike previous generations, 6G networks will integrate AI/ML, cloud-edge continuum, and network automation to enable autonomous network management, optimized resource allocation, and intelligent traffic engineering. However, achieving this vision requires open, vendor-neutral testbeds and software toolkits that facilitate hands-on experimentation and real-world validation of emerging technologies.
