EnviGuard – Development of a biosensor technology for environmental monitoring and disease prevention in aquaculture ensuring food safety (EnviGuard)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

The objective of the EnviGuard project is to develop a highly specific and precise (i.e. quantitative and qualitative) in situ measurement device for currently hard to measure man-made chemical contaminants and biohazards (toxic microalgae, viruses & bacteria, biotoxins & PCBs) that can be used as an early warning system in aquaculture and as an environmental monitor to assess the good environment ...

Calibrating Exoplanetary Atmospheres Using Benchmark Brown Dwarfs (CalExoPlan)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

Low-mass brown dwarfs in wide binary systems with young stars provide unparalleled opportunities for critically testing and improving the atmospheric model grids that are fundamental to interpreting observations of giant exoplanets. By data-mining the latest generation of wide field infrared surveys (e.g. VISTA, UHS, WISE) to select a sample of benchmark L and T dwarfs that maximise overlap in par ...

ConstRaint and Application driven Framework for Tailoring Embedded Real-time Systems (CRAFTERS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

"ICT-based service and product innovation is curtailed by the growing vertical chain of dependence on poorly interoperable proprietary technologies in Europe. This issue was identified to have high impact on European innovation productivity by the Report of the Independent Expert Group on R&D and Innovation, commonly known as the Aho-report. The report demanded incentives for the convergence of sh ...

Network of Excellence in Internet Science (EINS)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2015,

The goal of EINS is coordinating and integrating European research aimed at achieving a deeper multidisciplinary understanding of the development of the Internet as a societal and technological artefact, whose evolution is increasingly interwined with that of human societies. Its main objective is to allow an open and productive dialogue between all the disciplines which study Internet systems und ...

Cognitive Control Framework for Robotic Systems (CORBYS)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

Description The focus of the CORBYS project is on robotic systems that have symbiotic relationship with humans. These systems have to cope with highly dynamic environments as humans are demanding, curious and often act unpredictably. CORBYS will design and implement a cognitive robot control architecture that allows the integration of 1) hig ...

A converged copper-optical-radio OFDMA-based access network with high capacity and flexibility (ACCORDANCE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

ACCORDANCE introduces a novel ultra high capacity (even reaching the 100Gbps regime) extended reach optical access network architecture based on OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) technology/protocols, implemented through the proper mix of state-of-the-art photonics and electronics. Such architecture is not only intended to offer improved performance compared to evolving TDMA-PO ...

Application of Electromagnetic Fields for Enhancement of Structural Metal Performance (EMFforMET)

Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

The external parameters generally used in the traditional processing of structural metals are temperature, pressure and time. External electromagnetic fields (EMF) have significant potential for use in materials processing. Experimental data reasonably indicate that EMF can influence the microstructure and mechanical properties of materials. They suggest that application of EMF may be an effective ...

Architecture Paradigms and Programming Languages for Efficient programming of multiple CORES (Apple-CORE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2007, End date: Apr 30, 2011,

Apple-CORE will develop compilers, operating systems and execution platforms to support and evaluate a novel architecture paradigm that can exploit many-core chips to the end of silicon. It adopts a systematic model of concurrency implemented as instructions in the processors' ISA (developed in the EU FP6 AETHER project). This has enormous potential but is disruptive, as this paradigm shift requir ...
