  4. Future & Emerging Technologies (FET)Objectives • Emerging new science fields / disciplines in IST • Not much is known, the bulk needs to be discovered • Well established science field but a fundamental barrier determined by science • Addressing the barrier from a new angle • Addressing problems that are identified to happen in the long term • Alternative approach, distinct from mainstream • Problems not anticipated yet • Building the knowledge / understanding more valued than the prototype

  5. FET – Key Elements • Visionary and exploratory research • Longer-term or high-risk research • ‘Nursery’ of novel ideas - trend-setting - pathfinder • Embryonic – Proof-of-Concept • Interdisciplinary • Helping new IST-related S&T fields and communities to emerge • Complementary to other IST strategic objectives • Two Parts: • Open Domain => reflects research trends • Pro-Active Initiatives (e.g. NID, QIPC, DC, LPS, ...) => strategic vision, common objective

  6. FET OPEN – Modus Operandi • Bottom-up • Any IST related topic • Continuous submission / no fixed deadline • 2-step evaluation process (STREP) • Short proposal : WHAT & WHY • Full proposal : HOW • 1-step evaluation process (CA/SSA) • WP2003-2004: 60 Mio €, WP2005-2006: 60 Mio €

  7. Plan of the Talk • FET in IST-FP6 • FET in the IST work programme for 2005-2006 • Preparation of the 7th EU Framework Programme

  15. Presence & Interaction in Mixed Reality Environments Convey the sense of being there and of participating, acting, doing, influencing and changingthings there • Objective: • To further the understanding of Presence in order to create novel ICT systems that match human cognitive and affective capacities and recreate the experiences of presence and interaction in mixed reality environments • Focus areas: • Understanding different forms of Presence(i.e., aspects of perception, interaction, emotions and affect) • Design and development of essential ICT Building Blocks capturing different forms of Presence and based on a range of relevant HW and SW ICT technologies (rendering, 3D representation, tracking, haptics, light control, etc.) • Building novel Systems supporting Presence & Interaction(open system architectures integrating the essential building blocks, open source authoring tools, open APIs) • Support the realisation of Challenging and Visionary Scenarios • Integrated Projects and Co-ordination Actions

  16. Situated and autonomic communications A world pervaded by ubiquitous communication facilities with self-organising and self-preserving functionalities • Objectives: • To define a self-organising communication network concept and technology that can be situated in multiple and dynamic contexts • ranging from sensor networks to virtual networks of humans • defining decentralised optimisation strategies • benefiting from cross-layer or non-layered approaches • To study how strategic needs of social or commercial nature impact on future communication paradigms, and how networks and applications can support society and economy, enabling a service oriented, requirement and trust driven development of communication networks • to develop networking technologies (hardware/software combinations) that can evolve and create maximal synergy with the other types of non-technological networks that constitute their context • Integrated Projects and Networks of Excellence

  17. Simulating emergent properties in complex systems Framework of mathematical and computational techniques for simulation of complex systems • Objective: • We can engineer components of systems: How can we predict aggregate behaviour? • How can we infer models from (often incomplete) data? • Research challenges: • How to cope with uncertainty in simulation of engineered and natural systems? • How to describe systems acting on multiple scales? • How to integrate simulations on different levels? • STREPs
