European Robotic Pedestrian Assistant (EUROPA)

Start date: Mar 2, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

In the field of robotics, there has recently been a tremendous progress in the development of autonomous robots that offer various services to their users. Typical services include support of elderly people, cleaning, transportation, and delivery tasks, exploration of unaccessible hazardous environments, or surveillance. Most of the systems developed so far, however, are restricted to indoor sce ...

Multimodal Immersive Motion Rehabilitation with Interactive Cognitive Systems (MIMICS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

The main hypothesis of this project is that movement training for neurorehabilitation can be substantially improved through immersive and multimodal sensory feedback. The approach is real-time acquisition of behavioural and physiological data from patients and the use of this to adaptively and dynamically change the displays of an immersive virtual reality system, with the goal of maximising patie ...

Evaluating the effects of species composition and biodiversity on ecosystem water fluxes in a changing climate (BIWACLIM)

Start date: Dec 1, 2007, End date: Nov 30, 2010,

Research addressing the effects of global change on ecosystem ecology has mainly focused on carbon cycling, while the consequences for ecosystem water pools and fluxes have received little attention. Given the important regulating role of the vegetation for ecosystem hydrology it is hypothesized that global change will not only affect ecosystem water relations directly (e.g. by altered precipitati ...

Envisioning a Socio-Economic Knowledge Collider:\nFrom Computational Social Science to Social Computing (Visioneer)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

Our economy and society are currently facing serious challenges. It would therefore be desirable, if politicians, business people and scientists could better foresee and proactively moderate theon-going systemic changes rather than having to react to them in the state of crisis. Many of the current problems result from the circumstance that economic and social systems have been driven out of equil ...

Crystallographic studies of the complex between the prokaryotic ribosome and the SecYEG translocon (RIBOSOME-SECYEG)

Start date: Nov 7, 2007, End date: Nov 6, 2009,

We propose to crystallize the complex of the prokaryotic ribosome or its 50S subunit with the SecYEG translocon. Two SecYEG heterotrimers bind to the ribosome at the end of the nascent polypeptide tunnel to form a transmembrane channel which is part of a translocase complex that allows for secreted and membrane embedded molecules to be transcribed through or into the membrane bilayer respectively. ...

Network management of traffic monitoring infrastructure (CAG)

Start date: Oct 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2009,

The Internet has emerged into an integral part of our daily lives, for this reason its solid operation and performance is of paramount social, economical, technological, and scientific importance. To guarantee the solid operation of the Internet, network operators rely on network monitoring, and especially traffic monitoring, devices that collect essential network data that are later used by manag ...

Hydrothermal evolution of cassiterite-sulfide veins - insights from laser-ablation microanalysis of melt and fluid inclusions in the host-rocks and ores of the San Rafael deposit, SE Peru (TINFINDER)

Start date: Oct 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2009,

Granite-related hydrothermal veins typically have high ore grades and tonnages and thus are an excellent target in the search for such commodities as tin, tungsten, silver, copper and many other metals.Although the geology of these deposits is well described, a considerable debate persists about key issues related to their genesis, such as the timing of fluid separation from crystallizing magmas, ...

This proposal is for a Marie Curie EIF to work in the Isotope Geochemistry laboratory of the Department of Earth Sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH Zurich for 24 months. This project proposes the combined analysis of Ca, Mg, Si and Li isotope ratios in rivers and soils to better constrain the global biogeochemical cycles of these elements. Ca, Mg and Si are some of the mos ...

Dynamical quantum groups, deformation quantization of Lie bialgebroids and integrable systems in mathematical physics (DYNQUANTGR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2007, End date: Sep 30, 2008,

The main goal of this proposal is two-fold: Study the quantization problem for Lie bialgebroids on one hand and pay attention to many examples coming from physics which are globally identified as dynamical quantum groups on the other hand. We take this problem as a pretext to develop a general mathematical theory of dynamical equations like the Yang-Baxter; one that first appeared in the work of F ...
