Are you interested in short and focused FET OPEN innovation actions? Do you need funding for further innovation related work arising from FET-funded project results? Do not forget to submit your proposal under the FET Innovation Launchpad topic.
As part of its update of EU copyright rules, the European Commission today proposed a copyright exception that would permit researchers to analyse on a large scale scientific data to which they have lawful access.
The EU-funded DIVERSIFY project brought together researchers from the domains of software-intensive distributed systems and ecology, in order to translate ecological concepts and processes into software design principles. The project ended early 2016 but its impact is ongoing.
Six of the world’s most advanced vehicles will race over a track made of gold. Only you won’t be able to follow the race because each competitor is just nanometres in size and invisible to the naked eye.
This international conference brings together researchers dealing with swarm intelligence to share ideas on current developments and applications and to present their latest research. ANTS2016 welcomes paper submissions on any aspect of swarm intelligence.
ICT-enabled public sector modernisation is one of the key priorities of Societal Challenge 6, part of the H2020 research programme. Public administrations should move towards an open government paradigm, composed of 3 axes: «Open data», «Open services» and «Open process». This brochure presents these themes and the projects focusing their activities in "Europe in a changing world - inclusive, innovative and reflective societes".
The aim of the ETFA 2016 conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners from the industry and academia and provide them with a platform to report on recent advances and developments in the newly emerging areas of technology, as well as actual and potential applications to industrial and factory automation.
The Barcelona Cognition, Brain and Technology summer school addresses students and researchers involved in research at the interface between brains and technology. The 2016 edition is supported by the FET Proactive project socSMCs (Socializing Sensorimotor Contingencies).
What is the SME involvement in FET-Open projects? Which disciplines receive funding? How many participants does a typical FET-Open project have? Check out facts and figures on the first FET-Open call 2014/15.
Between 2011 and 2016, eight projects have been working towards the next generation supercomputer: CRESTA, DEEP and DEEP-ER, EPiGRAM, EXA2CT, Mont-Blanc (I + II) and Numexas. Thanks to their collaborations, these projects also started developing a European Exascale Community. This brochure summarises their achievements and the status of the European HPC ecosystem.
Imagine your favourite football team entering a stadium. An army of wireless cameras is following the players to give you the best possible view - of the whole pitch, of the chanting crowd, of each footballer, from the tip of his head to the grass blades he treads with his cleats. Thanks to Prof. Leif Oxenløwe's research, this kind of wireless ultra-high definition television broadcasting can one day become a reality.
The September 2016 edition of the FET Newsletter brings the latest news on Future and Emerging Technologies research, projects, outlines the funding opportunities in 2016 and reports on workshops, conferences and future events.
Following the nomination of the chair, Prof. Mlynek, the Commission has now formally set-up the Commission Expert Group, with 13 very high-level academic members that will provide recommendations on the preparation of the Quantum Technology Flagship.
This summer 2016 edition of the FET Newsletter brings the latest news on Future and Emerging Technologies research, projects, outlines the funding opportunities in 2016 and reports on workshops, conferences and future events.
Understanding the neurobiological principles beyond retinal functionality is essential to develop successful artificial computer vision architectures. This workshop is a unique opportunity to learn about the R&D performed in the FET project RENVISION which investigated pan-retinal signal processing at high spatio-temporal resolution, through neuroscientific, optical and computational approaches involving advanced pattern recognition and machine learning technologies.
Today, the European Commission announced an investment of €8.5 billion to be released during 2017 into research and innovation, following an update to the Work Programme of Horizon 2020, the EU's research and innovation funding programme.
Spanning seven years (2014 to 2020) and working with a budget of €77 billion, Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU research and innovation funding programme ever.
The EuroScience Open Forum is an international conference dedicated to broadly defined science and innovation. For the first time, Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) is organising two sessions at ESOF dedicated to science and policy related to FET.
The EU's Horizon 2020 research funding programme has now a more specific set of rules on research integrity to be followed by beneficiaries. This is thanks to the new provisions in the Horizon 2020 Model Grant Agreement.
The Convergent Science Network (CSN) for Biomimetics and Neurotechnology (FET Proactive Co-ordination Activity) is co-organising the 5th edition of the Living Machines conference. This event will focus on biomimetic and biohybrid systems, and demonstrations of state-of-the-art living-machine technologies. The all for papers, satellite events and sponsors is now open. Accepted papers will be published in Springer Lecturer Notes in Artificial Intelligence.
