ARTEMIS vision Maintain and consolidate European world leadership in Embedded Computing technologies which are crucial for the competitiveness of many important sectors of key EU industry and for key applications (e.g. energy, security, safety, health environment and well-being) • (picture from ARTEMIS European Technology Platform)

The Design Productivity Challenge • ARTEMIS aims to close the design productivity gap • Reduce cost of system design by 15% • Achieve 15% reduction in development cycles • Manage complexity increase of 25% with 10% effort reduction • Reduce by 15% the effort for re-validation and re-certification • Achieve cross-sectoral reuse • e.g. automotive, aerospace and manufacturing Complexity Expectation GAP Capability Time
ARTEMIS SRA: Application Contexts • Industrial systems • Large, complex and safety critical systems, that embraces Automotive, Aerospace, Manufacturing, and specific growth areas such as biomedical • Nomadic Environments • Enabling devices such as PDAs and on-body systems to communicate in changing and mobile environments, that offer users access to information and services while on the move • Private Spaces • Such as homes, cars and offices, that offers systems and solutions for improved enjoyment, comfort, well-being and safety. • Public Infrastructure • Major infrastructure such as airports, cities and highways that embrace large scale deployment of systems and services that benefit the citizen at large (communications networks, improved mobility, energy distribution, intelligent buildings, ...).
ARTEMIS SRA: Research Domains • Reference Design & Architectures • Creation of a generic platform and a suite of abstract components • with which new developments in different application domains can be engineered with minimal effort. • Seamless Connectivity & Middleware • Middleware, operating systems, and other functions required to link the physical world, as seen by the networked nodes, to the higher layer applications. • A vital element in the model of future Embedded Systems. • Design Methods & Tools • Essential for rapid design and prototyping, without which it is unrealistic to attempt development of such complex systems. • The objectives are : design efficiency, systematic design, productivity and quality.
ARTEMIS-JU Research Agenda:relationship to the ARTEMIS SRA • ARTEMIS-JU programme addresses the Research Domains and Application Contexts identified in the ARTEMIS SRA
Integrating R&D and Innovation • R&D • 8 Sub-programmes: • application-oriented eco-systems • address key applications for European prosperity and wellbeing • Priorities within each sub-programme • Innovation • Collaborative Innovation • “CoIEs”, which are the kernel of eco-systems • SMEs, • Education, • Standardisation • Business Models (e.g. Open Source, …), • Tool-Platforms • New concept, addressing long-standing obstacles • External Relations: with existing initiatives (FP7, ITEA2, NSF,…), and new ones
ARTEMIS-JU Research Agenda:Main relationships to the ARTEMIS SRA • SP1: Methods and Processes for Safety-relevant Embedded Systems • SP2: Person-centric Health Management • SP3: Smart Environments and Scalable Digital Services • SP4: Efficient Manufacturing and Logistics • SP5: Computing Environments for Embedded Systems • SP6: Security, Privacy and Dependability • SP7: Embedded Technology for Sustainable Urban Life • SP8: Human-centric Design of Embedded Systems
