European Research Infrastructure supporting Smart Grid Systems Technology Development, Validation and Roll Out (ERIGrid)

Start date: Nov 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2020,

Renewable energy sources are key enablers to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and to cope with the anthropogenic global warming. The intermittent behaviour of them and their limited storage capabilities present new challenges to power system operators in maintaining power quality and reliability. However, the increased availability of advanced automation and communication technologies has also pr ...

Embedded Multi-Core Systems for Mixed Criticality Applications in Dynamic and Changeable Real-Time Environments (EMC2)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2017,

Embedded systems are the key innovation driver to improve almost all mechatronic products with cheaper and even new functionalities. Furthermore, they strongly support today's information society as inter-system communication enabler.Consequently boundaries of application domains are alleviated and ad-hoc connections and interoperability play an increasing role. At the same time, multi-core and ma ...

Joint Operation for Ultra Low Emission Shipping (JOULES)

Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,

Reducing emissions from shipping has increasingly become a challenge over the last years, both as a counter measure against global climate change and to protect local environments and population from waste, gas emissions and noise.This challenge has been documented both in policy papers, like the Europe 2020 initiative or the Transport White Paper, and in rules and regulations issued by IMO as wel ...

Territorial Approaches to New Governance (TANGO)

Start date: May 31, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

Policymakers in the field of territorial development and cohesion recognise a clear need for coherent public action and allocation of public resources within the different territories across the European continent. Especially in times of restricted public budgets they feel a strong need to understand how policy action can become more effective in their daily practice and how synergies can be explo ...

Efficient Silicon Multi-Chip System-in-Package Integration - Reliability, Failure Analysis and Test (ESIP)

Start date: May 1, 2010, End date: Apr 1, 2013,

The ENIAC JU project ESiP is addressing the issues of reliability, failure analysis and testing in innovative system-in-package (SiP) solutions. Highly integrated systems with greater miniaturisation and increased functionality open new markets and improve the quality of life through a wide range of applications. In particular, higher systems integration technologies using multi-chip packaging, th ...

Identifying and exchanging best practices in developing Regional Integrated Strategies in Europe (RISE)

Start date: Aug 31, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

Regional approaches to strategic planning across Europe are changing and Regional Integrated Strategies (RIS) are emerging as a way for regions to focus on cohesion and integrated sustainable development. Although RIS are emerging all across the EU, there is no single model of RIS. Instead they consist of a combination of several core thematic and spatial topics, which vary depending on the region ...

ESPON and Territorial Impact Assessment (EATIA)

Start date: Aug 31, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

European sector policies and directives – often together with their translation and implementation into national and regional policies – can have a severe impact on the territorial development and spatial development policies of countries and regions in Europe. EU Member States and the European Commission therefore demonstrate interest in Territorial Impact Assessment (TIA). They both have been in ...

High Performance and Embedded Architecture and Compilation (HiPEAC)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

Due to technology limitations, the domain of high-performance processors is experiencing a radical shift towards parallelism through on-chip multi-cores and chip customization leading to heterogeneous multi-core systems. Furthermore, the commodity market, the supercomputing market and the embedded market are increasingly sharing the same challenges, leading to convergence of the three markets.The ...

Assessment of Regional and Territorial Sensitivity (ARTS)

Start date: Jan 31, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2011,

An effective exploitation of Europe’s territorial capital requires deeper insights into the various territorial effects of EU sector legislation and policy as well as on how they structurally reinforce each other. Policymakers increasingly acknowledge the need to consider ex ante possible territorial effects of new EU sector legislation and policy as they might have both directly and indirectly of ...

Virtual synchronous machines for frequency stabilisation in future grids with a significant share of decentralized generation (VSYNC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

PROBLEM DEFINITION In electricity grids the frequency of the voltage is stabilized by a combination of the rotational inertia (rotating mass) of synchronous power generators in the grid and a control algorithm acting on the rotational speed of a number of major synchronous power generators. When in future small non-synchronous generation units replace a significant part of the synchronous power ge ...

Freude am Fluss

Start date: Jun 30, 2002, End date: Jun 29, 2008,

This Dutch-led project with a total of 12 partners from France, Germany and the Netherlands, aims at reducing the opposition from local stakeholders to “room-for-river” measures against flooding. The project’s objective is to develop expertise for assistance of NWE decision-makers, engineers and local communities in joint planning and design of ‘room-for river’ packages, and to apply the method in ...

Connected Cities (CC)

Start date: Jun 30, 2005, End date: Dec 30, 2007,

European citizens travel much further to work and leisure facilities today than in the past. Despite bringing benefits, this huge increase in mobility has led to traffic congestion and pollution, holding back efforts to achieve sustainable development. Public transport can form the basis of more sustainable approaches to mobility. However, the mismatch between older public transport networks and m ...
