Epitaxial transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayers for spin-valleytronics (SPINVALLEY)

Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Spin-valleytronics is a promising new paradigm in electronics. Besides the spins of electrons and holes, valleys in the electronic band structure of some materials may provide another robust identity for information processing. Transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers, exhibiting a layered graphene-like structure, have intrinsically strong spin-valley coupling, essential for harnessing thi ...

Board and SoC Test Instrumentation for Ageing and No Failure Found (BASTION)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

Today, an average family spends annually over 50 Euros on No-Failure-Found (NFF) investigations - a known problem of an unknown origin. Tomorrow, the electronic engine control system in a car will be dying after two-three years of operation due to CMOS ageing. Actions are urgently needed!A group of European experts will unite their forces in BASTION to fight against ageing and NFF issues. The proj ...

Expressive Agents for Symbiotic Education and Learning (EASEL)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

EASEL will explore and develop a theoretical understanding of human-robot symbiotic interaction (HRSI) where symbiosis is defined as the capacity of the robot and the person to mutually influence each other, and alter each other's behaviour over different time-scales (for instance, within encounters and across encounters). Symbiosis requires that the robot can read, and be responsive to, the behav ...

Sensing, monitoring and actuating on the UNderwater world through a federated Research InfraStructure Extending the Future Internet (SUNRISE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

We must learn to both sustainably exploit & protect our vast oceans, provider of oxygen, food, hydrocarbons & other resources. A solution lies in sensing & interacting through an Internet of Things, with distributed networks of intelligent sensors & actuators. Unfortunately, we currently lack a marine Internet, crucial to achieve distributed, coordinated & adaptive control, due to the rapid absor ...

Programming Large Scale Heterogeneous Infrastructures (POLCA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

Description A new mathematically based methodolgy for the development of heterogeneous systemsThe execution speed of processors has not increased since roughly 2006. To cope with the ever growing demands, computers are nowadays essentially an integration of multiplecomputers, called multi-core processors. However, most software has been d ...

Giant Organic Magnetoresistance BioSensing (GOMBS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

The GOMBS project prepares the commercialization of ultrasensitive point-of-care biosensors for early-stage detection of life-threatening diseases, based on the largest MR effect ever observed at room temperature and small magnetic fields, recently discovered by the PI [Science 341, 257 (2013)]. Target biomolecules are specifically attached to the sensor and magnetic nanoparticle (NP) labels, and ...

PRObing Using Droplets (PROUD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Currently, there is a trend towards the use of microfluidic microdroplet based systems for all kind of applications, since it has several advantages compared to bulky systems. Some of these are the use of small volumes, prevention of dispersion, high-throughput, fast reaction times and the possibility to study at single cell level. However the analysis of these small volume microdroplets is remain ...
