Evolution of evolvable systems (EVOEVO)
Start date: Jul 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2017,
"This proposal investigates the origin of three evolvable systems in biological evolution. The first pillar deals with early evolution/origin of life. It is the heaviest part of the proposal, with a strong experimental participation of a co-PI. We shall invetiage how genes, metabolism and membranes could have evolved to yield the first living cells. Intermediate stages will be proposed, modelled a ...

Forecasting Financial Crises (FOC-II)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
In this project we set up an interdisciplinary consortium of computer scientists, physicists, economists and policy makers to deal with the problem of understanding and forecasting systemic risk and global financial instabilities. By leveraging on expertise in the various disciplines, we want to provide a novel integrated and network-oriented approach to the issue. On one hand, we will offer a the ...

Breakthrough in European Ship and Shipbuilding Technologies (BESST)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
"Initiated by EUROYARDS, BESST aims to achieve a breakthrough in competitiveness, environmentally friendliness and safety of EU built ships. Focusing on passenger ships, ferries and mega-yachts, the results will to a large extend be applicable also to other ships. A holistic life cycle performance assessment on ship level will guide the technical developments on system level, clustered in System G ...

Evolutionary microfluidics (eFlux)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2012,
Ever since the insightful suggestion of John von Neumann, self-reproducing automata are considered to be a main long-term goal of IT. Biologists are dealing with such systems that arose in the course of evolution by natural selection. The future realization of technological artefacts that will mimic, or be inspired by biological automata, will face many problems that biological evolution had to so ...

Entwicklung und Implementierung eines Personal Learning Environments im Forst und in der Baumpflege
Start date: Dec 1, 2009,
Employees must help to maintain their own employability and the competitiveness of their employers by developing professionally relevant key competences on their own behalf. Vocational training should also contribute to the competitiveness of European undertakings. This is why vocational training and working practice need to mesh more tightly together and why we must attempt to integrate formal an ...
