Seeds (UCL) • Advisory Board: Antonio Teixeira, University of Aveiro (Portugal) Valter Ferrero, Polytechnic of Torino (Italy) Francesco Matera, Fondazione Ugo Bordoni (Italy) Kyriakos Vlachos, University of Patras (Greece) Dieter Jaeger, University of Duisburg-Essen (Germany) • 15 Partners involved in experiments: ACREO, AIT, DTU-COM, FT, ISCOM, IT, NTUA, ORC, PoliMi, RACTI, TU/e, UCL, UDE, UPC, UPVLC

  3. WP-L Objectives • Updating of catalogue/checklist of equipment and facilities- Completed • Definition of rules for joint experiments and resource sharing between participating partners- Completed • Definition of a joint experiments plan among the participating partners- Completed • Carrying out a number of joint experiments- Completed • Reporting the results of those joint experiments- Completed

  4. WP-L Commitments • N° joint experiments (>10 in two years) 12 have been funded • N° joint papers (>10 in two years) 7 joint papers already, others reported in other work-packages and in preparation • N° mobility actions (>10 in two years) > 12 achieved

  5. WP-L Role and contribution of partners • UCL Co-ordinates the Work-Package. • 15 Partners committed to WP-L. • 15 Partners participating in joint experiments. • Partners from 10 member Countries participate in WP-L joint experiments.
