ARTEMISA, Architecture for Energy Efficiency and Sustainability in Ambient Intelligence (TIN2009-14378-C02-02)
|
| Description: |
The Artemisa project aims to define a software architecture for
intelligent and assisted spaces with the target of develop applications
and products that improve energy efficiency and promote sustainable
development. Based on this architecture solutions will be developed in
two areas, where energy efficiency is a priority.
On the one hand, the automotive industry focuses much of their efforts
in making engines more efficient and safer vehicles. However, his
proposals does not seek active collaboration by the driver. In
contrast, the subproject Artemisa seeks to offer advice to drivers
detecting bad habits and making suggestions for improving them.
On the other hand, energy consumption in lighting and refurbishment of
the office buildings and homes is higher, so the project Artemisa will
seek to reduce consumption in these settings from the analysis and
learning the habits of the inhabitants,to automate control of lighting
and conditioning in order to minimize consumption.

OSAMI-Commons,
Open Source Ambient Intelligence Commons
for an Open Internet (TSI-020400-2008-114) (ITEA 2 ip07019) |
| Description: |

The
aim of the international project OSAMI is the design of a basic, widely
applicable SOA-oriented component platform, its development, test and
its provision as open source software. The project consists of a number
of national sub-projects, each focussing on a certain field of
application. OSGi and Web Services forms the technical basis of the
OSAMI platform in order to implement distributed, dynamically
configurable, vendor-neutral and device-independent solutions.

Interactiva Multiplataforma de Distribución de Contenidos Audiovisuales
(TSI-020302-2008-115) |
| Description: |

The general aim of the project is the design and development
of an interactive multiplatform system of audiovisual
broadcast content,
that it will be accesible and adapted to the all age consumers and it
will be developed during two years. In order to do that, the idea to
make the most of the network potentials that are used to broadcast
non-authorized content is take as starting point, to create a
audiovisual content broadcasting system by a lawful and
controlled way and with a competitive cost for the consumers
and
companies. The goal is to boost and to consolidate new markets for the
audiovisual and telecommunications industry and it will be an
economiclly viable alternative thanks to comercials incomes that will
be generated through an innovate approach. |

InCare: Plataforma abierta para la integracion en el hogar de servicios cooperativos de
teleasistencia y telemedicina (CICYT: TSI2006-13390-C02-01) |
| Description: |
The goal of the
project is to overcome or reduce the difficulties currently suffered by
persons with special needs, particularly those living alone or in rural
areas, when obtaining professional care and medical services, using
innovative techniques both in communications and software, and based on
open systems. The project will design and integrate eHealth and eCare
services on a residential infrastructure including the home gateway and
other special devices, connected to medical and care service providers
as well as emergency facilities, and also to the person's relatives and
friends. |

Caring
Cars (EUREKA / MEDEA+ 2A403) |
| Description: |

This project is centered in the development of chipsets and middlewarte
for the construction of application and service networks in the
automobile. Specifically, sensor networks are used to measure
environments factors and data for the driver and the passengers. The
usage of these data for monitoring vital data of the driver, and to
adapt the environment inside the car will improve the wellness of the
driver, thus reducing the risks of an accident. Furthermore, these data
can be used to detect health problems, enhance efficiency of
professional emergency assistance, and reduce the environmental impact
of the vehicle. |

MUSE I
(Multi Service Access Everywhere) (FP6 - IST 507295) |
| Description: |
The overall objective of MUSE is the
research and development of a future, low cost, multi-service access
network, allowing the ubiquitous delivery of broadband services to
European citizens. The project integrates research in the following
areas: access network architectures, access platforms, first mile
solutions, cooperation among access network and home gateway and home
network, and lab tests.

Trust-eS:
Technology Responses To Ubiquitous Security Threats For
e-Security (EUREKA / MEDEA+ A306) |
| Description: |
This project aims at tackling the current
technology limitations or bottlenecks encountered in secure
transactions platforms and develops technology responses or
breakthroughs that will leverage future security solutions needed for
e-Security and e-Government applications in the next 3 to 5 years.

MUSE II
(Multi Service Access Everywhere) (FP6 - IST 26442) |
| Description: |
The overall objective of MUSE is the
research and development of a future, low cost, multi-service access
network. The access network should provide secure connectivity between
end-user terminals and edge nodes in a multi-provider environment. It
should be suited for the ubiquitous delivery of broadband services to
every European citizen.
The integrated project addresses the network architecture, access
nodes, first mile solutions and interworking of the residential gateway
with the access network.
A first phase of the project was granted in the first call of FP6.
During the present extension, MUSE will bring the results of the first
phase to standardisation and evaluate them in integrated lab trials.
The MUSE access network will be further enhanced by
- embedding new service enablers in the access network elements to
create more added value from multimedia applications,
- preparing the fixed access architecture to support fixed mobile
convergence,
- comparing new concepts like distributed architectures and node
consolidation.
The major objectives of phase II are
- the integration and end-to-end evaluation of the network elements in
lab trials,
- the enhancement of the fundamental network architecture models of
phase I with MM service enablers, FMC features, and the assessment of
new access architectural approaches. Evaluation of these enhancements
as upgrade of the lab trials.

Planets:
Platforms for Networked Service Delivery (EUREKA / MEDEA+ A-306) |
| Description: |
Currently, high speed asymmetrical Internet
access is widely deployed in Europe and world wide. This access type is
tailored to Internet browsing and download, a rather passive type of
user behaviour. In future, subscribers will become more and more active
and will also upload significant amount of data into the Internet.
PlaNetS will contribute to the overall goal of eEurope 2005, to provide
cost effective broadband access to all European citizens based on a
converged network unifying the current heterogeneous networks. On the
private network side, PlaNets is developing transmission techniques in
the domestic environment in line with the Home Gateway Initiative.
Tasks covered are for example, the implementation of a home media
server terminal prototype or the employment of the prototype to
evaluate new user services enabled by GSB and to evaluate the key
technologies and protocols necessary to support the converged network.

MARTES
(Model driven approach to Real-Time Embedded System Development)
(EUREKA / ITEA 4006) |
| Description: |
The main focus of
MARTES is on how to use the standard modelling languages UML and
SystemC efficiently in combina-tion for systematic model-based
development of real-time embedded systems in an era of digital
convergence. The project adopts ideas from MDA (model-driven
architecture), particularly the separation of application functionality
and platform. A number of special techniques developed around UML and
SystemC will also be integrated, to form a coherent methodology. |
