  27. Commission proposal “Specific Programmes” (May 2001)

  28. Main IST related parts of FP6

  29. IST: a high political and policy profile • The Union has set an objective for the next decade … Lisbon council …. “To become the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world, capable of sustainable economic growth with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion.” eEurope: A major instrument to attain this objective providing consolidation in Member States • IST providing the key technologies ….for knowledge creation, sharing and exploitation

  30. IST: part of a competitive “race” to knowledge • The US invests 3 times more on RTD in IST 52% of RTD effort in IST in OECD countries is in the US only 17% in Europe (22% in Japan) • Public investment in the EU is 50% of the US effort …. and the gap is widening • The EU effort is fragmented ….critical mass is rarely reached in the member states • … and IST has shorter & shorter life-cycles...

  31. IST - Europe can react... • A new generation of technologies is emerging • helps build an ALL inclusive knowledge society and economy • Europe is well positioned • Europe can build on strengths, e.g. - in Mobile and Wireless, - embedded software, - consumer electronics, - rich content & service provision • EU RTD in IST provides a unique opportunity - to aggregate fragmented effort (ERA) - build consensus and provide a “global approach”

  32. IST in FP6: Strategy • Concentration and focus • building critical mass • Capitalise on Europe’s strengths • Visionary, forward looking (longer term / high risk) • Address key societal, economic & industrial challenges • Combine flexibility with greater speed in implementation

  33. IST in FP6 : key elements • Policy Framework (Lisbon conclusions, eEurope) • Vision of “Ambient Intelligence” providing natural & enjoyable interactions with IST applications & services • Objectives Strengthening Europe’s competitiveness & technology base Building the information and knowledge society for ALL • Scope Core technologies & “pull-through” applications • Challenges Bring the users, “people”, to the foreground Embed trustful technologies in the background (almost invisible)

  34. An overview of IST in FP6 • Context • Content • Instruments • Budget

  35. IST : the way to an “all inclusive knowledge society” • IST today • PC based …………………………….. • “Writing and reading”…………….…. • “Word” based information search……. • Low bandwidth, separate networks…. • Mobile telephony (voice)…………..… • Micro scale……………………………. • Silicon based………………………….. • eServices just emerging………………. • Only 5% of global population on-line.. “Ambient Intelligence” tomorrow “Our surrounding” is the interface Use all senses, intuitive Context-based knowledge handling Infinite bandwidth, inter-operable, .. Mobile/Wireless full multimedia Nano-scale different materials Wide adoption (eHealth, eLearnng, …) >70% of world-wide population on line

  36. Security, privacy IPRs, dependabilty Smart cards,... Health, eInclusion, mobility, environment safety, cultural heritage GRIDS for science, engineering business and society E and m business, e and m work, learning Trust & Confidence IST for societal challenges IST for economic challenges Demanding applications Applied IST for major societal and economic challenges Pervasive, mobile, wireless, trustful infrastructures Miniaturised, low cost low power components & µsytems Natural interactions with ‘ knowledge ’  Communication & networking Software µ, nano & opto electronics µ and nano systems Knowledge technologies interfaces • Mobile: beyond 3G • Fixed:All optical • Integrated (IPv6) • Adaptive • Reliable • Embedded • Distributed • Adaptable • CMOS : the limit • System-on-Chip • Nano-scale • New materials • Multidiscplines • New Sensing • Networked • New materials • Nano-scale • Context based • Semantic based • Agent based • Scaleable • All senses • Multilingual • Intuitive • ‘Surrounding’ Specific integration Anywhere anytime natural and enjoyable access to IST services for ALL Building blocks Generic
