“Effect of diet on the mental performance of children” (NUTRIMENTHE)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

Current evidence on the effect of diet on mental performance (MP) is largely based on animal, retrospective studies, and short-term nutritional intervention studies in humans. NUTRIMENTHE will significantly improve this knowledge through studying the role, mechanisms, risks & benefits of specific nutrients & food components to respond to specific needs and improve the MP of children. The research ...

European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Nanomaterials (NanoImpactNet)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

Recent technological advances allow the targeted production of objects and materials in the nanoscale (smaller than 100 nm). Nanomaterials have chemical, physical and bioactive characteristics, which are different from those of larger entities of the same materials. Nanoparticles can pass through body barriers. This is interesting for medical applications, but it raises concerns about their health ...

Mobile Biometry (MOBIO)

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

Portable personal devices (PDAs or mobile phones) are indeed widely used.They provide the mobile worker or the customer with portable computing and wireless access to Telecom networks. It is then possible to access many services (phone card reloading, remote purchase or telephone banking). The conventional means of identification (passwords, secret codes and PINs) can easily be compromised, shared ...

4WARD - Architecture and Design for the Future Internet (4WARD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimize and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Inter ...

Barriers for energy changes among end consumers and households (BARENERGY)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

The main objective in this proposal is to develop methods to identify the relevance and strengths of various barriers for energy behaviour changes among end consumers and households, and to discuss how activities from political authorities, energy producers and NGOs can overcome these barriers. We will address changes in consumer behaviour along two dimensions. The first is energy saving and impro ...

Wireless Hybrid Enhanced Mobile Radio Estimators (WHERE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

To increase ubiquitous and mobile network access and data rates, scientific and technological development is more and more focussing on the integration of radio access networks (RANs). For an efficient usage of RANs, knowledge of the position of mobile terminals (MTs) is valuable information in order to allocate resources or predict the allocation within a heterogeneous RAN infrastructure.The main ...

Reconfigurable OFDMA-based Cooperative NetworKs Enabled by Agile SpecTrum Use (ROCKET)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2009,

The project aims at provisioning a ubiquitous wireless solution to reach bit rates higher than 100Mbps with peak throughputs higher than 1Gbps, based on Reconfigurable OFDMA Cooperative Networks enabled by agile spectrum use (ROCKET). While increasing peak rates is a natural must-do for new standards, providing homogeneous high rate coverage is equally important as it guarantees a constant user ex ...
