WP5 – ECOFACT platform and ICT framework development
Key achievements:
- Completed the work on the WP4 wrapper, which acts a bridge between the ECOFACT Data Broker and the WP4 LCA/LCCA modules.
- Further implementation of DSS features, integrating learning capabilities to take into account the stakeholders’ behaviours (how they exploit the DSS suggestions and what is the outcome of their actions).
- Dashboard refined and extended with functionalities from the different ECOFACT modules.
- Setting up of the overall CI/CD infrastructure, including a central code repository, testing pipelines and a private Docker registry to host images of the ECOFACT components.
- First complete Integration Test of different ECOFACT components: Data Broker, DTP, Dashboard and DSS, exploiting the real data coming from AB pilot site.
