The Challenge is organized in two phases:
The referents of the participating universities have to preliminary select the domain of interest and to propose project titles or themes. In order to cover the largest number of topics, after the collection of the proposals, the organizers will assign the themes to the participants.
The participants (local teams) can choose to work during the first or the second semester. In both cases, at the end of each semester, the winning local team must send the software documentation to the organizers for participating to the presentation meeting.
The winning teams of the two semesters are invited to participate to the final hackaton that will be held at the I-CiTies conference in September 2019. During the hackaton each team will integrate its system with the ones implemented by the other teams according to an integration scenario provided by the organizers.
