Tools & Methods Applications 1st Call 2nd Call Indicators - SINE 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 DOSIS SUP.COM 5th Framework Programme WP 99 Tools & methods: more focused Indicators - SINE Applications - Focused on IST Non RTD: Networks - Transfer of Technology 3rd Call WP 2000 4th Call? SINE: Call for tender

  3. Outcome of the previous calls

  4. Workprogramme 2000 • Inserted in the IST programme • Nearly the same structure - CPA8 • Main efforts • Not enough covered area • Non-RTD actions (Networks, clusters, Transfer of technology, ...) • Participation of associated countries • SINE: Call for tenders

  5. IST Workprogramme

  6. CPA8: Statistical tools, methods, indicators & applications for the Information Society1 Objectives: To develop new statistical tools, methods and indicators exploiting information society technologies. To demonstrate and disseminate their use in information society applications while serving the needs of official statistics within the European Statistical System. Focus: • Statistical datamining, statistical modelling, representation and analysis of non-numerical data, the use of administrative data (particularly business registers) for statistical purposes, statistical disclosure control and improvements in quality and in timely and low-cost data production. • Definition, measurement and exploitation of new socio-economic statistical indicators for the Information Society. RTD work should aim to exploit best practice in software development and networked, distributed information systems. Types of actions addressed: RTD, thematic networks, best practice actions, non-take-up accompanying measures. Links with WP1999: Refocus of AL V.1.4 (CPA4) on “New Indicators and Statistical Methods” 1 This cross-programme action will be elaborated in co-ordination with Eurostat.

  7. Workprogramme 2001 • In preparation • Likely the same structure • Extension of SINE and TTK activities • Emphasis on “clusters” • Call at the beginning of the year 2001

  8. Scope of tools and methods • Defined in Workprogramme 2000 • Guided in EPROS: Tools and methods • EPROS: A list of research topics organized by NORIS and examples • Non-prescriptive and non-exhaustive • Soft and fuzzy limits of research scope • Open categories for each topic

  9. SINE Statistical Indicators of the New Economy In Workprogramme 2000: • Definition, measurement and exploitation of new socio-economic statistical indicators for the information society

  10. SINE

  11. Clusters • Co-operation and co-ordination of projects • For integration, standardisation, dissemination, … • Some themes: • metadata • data collection • data dissemination • ...
