  2. Overview • TAHI Existing Links • EU’s 6th Framework Programme • IST – Information Society Technologies • Benefits of Participation • Contacts

  3. TAHI European Links • The European Application Home Alliance (TEAHA): • ePerSpace:developing innovative interoperable value-added networked services • MediaNet: developing technologies, infrastructure and service solutions for easy exchange of digital content and audio-video content between creators, providers, customers and citizens • SmartHouse • Code of Practice/Guide to System Design • CENELEC Workshop Agreement • Refers to TAHI Open Architecture • European Commission DG Information Society, IST Programme • Euro-China Co-operation Workshop on Home Networks and Platforms, Beijing April 2004

  4. EU’s 6th Framework Programme • IST - Information Society Technologies • A thematic priority for research and development under the specific programme: • “Integrating and strengthening the European research area” • 2005-06 Work Programme • http://www.cordis.lu/ist

  5. IST Strategic Objectives • Research is increasingly organised on an international scale • Innovation processes are more open, with wider and faster exchange of ideas, people and resources • Technology chains are increasingly complex, making it more difficult for any single player to establish industrial leadership in any ICT field • New promising fields are emerging at the cross-over between ICT and other disciplines such as biotechnologies, materials and cognitive sciences.

  6. FP6 Strategic Objectives - General • Nanoelectronics • Towards a global dependability and security framework • Mobile and Wireless Systems beyond 3G • Semantic-based Knowledge and Content Systems/Cognitive Systems • ICT research for innovative Government • Technology-enhanced Learning • Integrated biomedical information for better health • eSafety – Co-operative Systems for Road Transport • Photonic components • Advanced Grid Technologies, Systems and Services • Multimodal Interfaces • ICT for Networked Businesses • Access to and preservation of cultural and scientific resources • ICT for Environmental Risk Management

  7. FP6 Strategic Objectives - TAHI Related • Broadband for All • Networked Audio Visual Systems and Home Platforms • Embedded Systems • Software and Services • Integration of the ICT research effort in an Enlarged Europe • Research networking testbeds • Collaborative Working Environments • eInclusion

  8. Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) • Advanced Computing Architectures • Presence and Interaction in Mixed Reality Environments • Situated and Autonomic Communications • Simulating Emergent Properties in Complex Systems

  9. IST FP6 Calls • Call 4(16 Nov 2004 - closes 22 March 2005) Budget 1.12 BEUR • Broadband for All • Networked Audio Visual Systems and Home Platforms • Integration of the ICT research effort in an Enlarged Europe • Call 5(17 May 2005 - closes 21 September 2005) Budget 638 MEUR • Embedded Systems • Software and services • Research networking testbeds • Collaborative Working Environments • eInclusion

  10. Benefits of Participation • Gain knowledge of the European market and environment • Network with leading technology players across Europe • Prediction of technology trends and industry standards • Better understanding of EU policies and future legislation • Shared knowledge and development costs • Results and products applicable across Europe

  11. IST Events/Workshops • The IST workprogramme will be the subject of presentations at: • IST2004 Conference: at Den Haag 15-17 November 2004 http://europa.eu.int/information_society/istevent/2004/index_en.htm • UK IST Conference 2004: in Oxford on 7/8 December 2004 http://fp6uk.ost.gov.uk/page.aspx?SP=1121
