FET REPORTS
Moving the ICT frontiers. A strategy for research on future and emerging technologies in Europe. (1658KB)
- How should future and emerging technologies be stimulated? How can we support much larger multi-disciplinary themes? How can we encourage talented young researchers? How can we strengthen links with national and international research programmes? At the FET2009 conference "science beyond fiction" commissioner Viviane Reding announced this document which gives the key strategies the Commission has for future and emerging technologies.

FP7 PROJECT COMMUNICATION: PROMOTE YOUR PROJECT !!
- Read the FET FP7 Project Communication quick guidelines (40KB)
- FP7 projects: you have been successful in your bid for EU funding.
Now it is time to tell everyone!
The visibility of your project depends on how you promote it.
VISIT: Best practices for FP7 projects about "project communication". e.g. suggestions on issuing a project launch press release by partners,creating a professional project logo & launching a project website.
We strongly recommend to add on your project webpage the following text & images:
"The project XXX acknowledges the financial support of the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) programme within the ICT theme of the Seventh Framework Programme for Research of the European Commission". - FET tree & clouds (zip file), FP7 logo,
- To acknowledge the European Commission and the Directorate General Information Society and Media we recommend to add the "transmitter" image. You can download "the transmitter" in ENGLISH (zip file,2,640 Kb ). Other EU languages are availble on request (email: Infso ICTFET infodesk). Please read carefully how and were to use it. The EU flag and references, along with arrow, form a whole and should NOT be split up. The "transmitter" is systematically placed at the bottom rightof documents. The transmitter indicates the source of information. As with a signature, it is positioned bottom right, in the margin. On an internet site, it features in the same place and on every page. Apart from material like a poster or an image (photo, illustration, etc.) where all the available space is full, the set is placed on a white background.

- " Predictive modelling for better understanding of cardiovascular disease: the case of In-stent Restenosis" (PDF) by COAST (Complex Automata Simulation Technique),European Union FP6 FET Complex Systems funded project
- Prof. Ioannis Antoniou was awarded the Prigogine 2008 award for his contribution to the theory of chaos, as it was first developed by Prigorine in the early 70s. A student of Prigogine himself for 24 years, Antoniou's contribution offers the mathematical formula for the Prigorine theory to be applied to fields such as optical tomography, electrocardiograms, 3D display, nanotechnology, etc. The 2008 prize was presented at The Sustainable City 2008 conference in Greece (Dec2008). Prof Antoniou was involved in several FP5 FET projects such as : TDIS (Three-Dimensional Imaging System Based on Integral Photography for Precise Simulation of 3D Perception and Enhancement of the Telepresence Effect) IMCOMP (IMMUCOCOMOPUTING), SQID (Semidonductor-based implementation of quantum information devices).

- Read the "PERADA" magazine. The Coordination action of the FET Proactive Initiative on Pervasive Adaptation (PERADA) launched a first online magazine (Oct2008).
- The Isaac Newton medal of the Institute of Physics -2008 for outstanding contributions to physics has been awarded to Professor Anton Zeilinger, for his pioneering conceptual and experimental contributions to the foundations of quantum physics, which have become the cornerstone for the rapidly-evolving field of quantum information. Prof. Zeilinger is a partner in the FET QIPC projects: QUROPE and QAP.
- Study on the Worldwide State-of-the-Art in Brain-Computer Interfaces: NSF and other agencies of the US government commissioned a stock-taking study on the worldwide status of R&D in brain-computer interfaces (BCI). The report is available at http://www.wtec.org/bci/BCI-finalreport-10Oct2007-lowres.pdf. It positions European BCI research in the global scene, quoting several projects funded by the ICT programme, in particular FET. The study also discusses the strengths of the European cooperative research model with respect those applied in other funding schemes.
