The Human Brain Project (HBP)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain diseases and build revolutionary new computing technologies. Today, for the first time, modern ICT has brought these goals within sight. The goal of the Human Brain Project, part of the ...

low Energy COnsumption NETworks (ECONET)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

Nowadays, it is widely recognised that the sole introduction of low consumption silicon elements will not be sufficient to effectively curb tomorrow's network energy requirements. Based on this assumption, the ECONET project will investigate, develop and test new capabilities for the Future Internet devices enabling the efficient management of power consumption so to strongly reduce the current en ...

Smart Catheterization (SCATh)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2013,

Modern medicine is irreversibly shifting towards less invasive surgical procedures. Conventional open surgery approaches are systematically being replaced by interventions that reduce access trauma and thereby minimise pain and hospitalisation periods for patients. The downside of this approach is that it is highly demanding for the interventionalist, entailing unacceptable risks for the patient. ...
