Geometric phases, pumping, and dissipation in quantum devices (GEOMDISS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
The aim of this project is to investigate how dissipation influences the geometric phases and geometric pumping in quantum solid-state devices and to assess the role of geometric manipulations in future ICT applications. Since all realistic solid-state devices suffer from dissipation due to their coupling to uncontrolled environment with many degrees of freedom it is crucial to understand how the ...

Image-based Multi-scale Physiological Planning for Ablation Cancer Treatment (IMPPACT)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
IMPPACT will develop an intervention planning and monitoring application for Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) of malignant liver tumours. RFA is a minimally invasive form to treat cancer without open surgery, by placing a needle inside the malignancy and destroying it through intensive heating. Though the advantages of this approach are obvious, the intervention is currently hard to plan, almost impo ...

Boosting Energy Awareness With Adaptive Real-time Environments (Be Aware)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,
Reduction of energy consumption is a societal challenge that requires combination of technical, economical, and social means. So far, energy conservation has focused on new technologies and automation, treating users as passive consumers. However, strong evidence suggests that users can adapt actively their behaviour to energy saving with suitable feedback, support, and incentives, reducing signif ...

Computer Aided Cryptography Engineering (CACE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,
Development of hardware devices and software products is facilitated by a design flow, and a set of tools (e.g., compilers and debuggers), which automate tasks normally performed by experienced, highly skilled developers. However, in both hardware and software examples the tools are generic since they seldom provide specific support for a particular domain. The goal of this project is to design, d ...
