Objetivo
Specific Objectives
1. Develop, test and build consensus on a methodology for data gathering, monitoring and benchmarking the progress of eEurope+ in the CC13;
2. Analyse the emerging policy issues with regard to cyber security, in particular with regard to privacy and identity and by exploiting the research finding of EPSO (see project 19);
3. Explore the feasibility of a forward looking IST observatory integrating the research findings on e-commerce, e-society and cyber security.
Planned Deliverables
Specific deliverables to DGs:
Workshops and their proceedings;
Research Reports;
Publications.
As a result of the research:
Advances in technological progress in relevant areas;
Advice on long-term policy issues to policy-makers;
Promotion of awareness in related industry sectors;
Helping political acceptance of standardisation processes.
Summary of deliverables made by: 31/12/2001
Report to the European Parliaments ITRE Committee on Future Bottlenecks in the Information Society.
Report to DG INFSO as a European Commission contribution to the G8 Digital Opportunities Task Force (Dot. Force) on The Digital Divide ¡V A Research Perspective;
Organising and managing the ICT Enlargement Panel, preparation of the report on its findings in the context of the Enlargement Futures Project & presentation at the Bled (Slovenia) international conference.
Output Indicators and Impact
Scientific Outputs: 2 scientific presentations per sub-cluster and 3 scientific publications are foreseen.
Impact:
A significant contribution to the implementation of eEurope+ and to prospective work on the development of the information society in pre-accession countries;
Contribution to policy development on the societal aspects of the information society, including equity effects and social cohesion, info-ethics, mobility and transport.
Summary of the project
Both this Project and Project 19 (Electronic Business ¡V q.v.) fall within the responsibility of the ICT Unit at IPTS. Both concern the Information Society and both constitute the backbone of the Units institutionally-funded work.
The projects are supplemented by competitive projects and activities financed directly by the Commission Services requesting them.
The ICT Unit structures these activities into three strategic thematic clusters:
IST & Enlargement, IST & Mobility/e-society, IST & Cybersecurity with a cross-cutting Technology Watch function operating on all three.
Of the three thematic clusters, the first two relate most closely to Project
71.
During 2002, the project will focus on:
Enlargement & Technology Watch:
- Monitoring and Benchmarking the progress of eEurope+, the Commission programme for promoting the development of the Information Society in pre-accession countries; forecasting relevant technological developments for leapfrogging;
- Forecasting relevant technological developments for leapfrogging opportunities and identifying potential PACs industrial competitiveness in the ICT sector.
Mobility & Technology Watch:
Analysing potential user behaviour regarding the acceptance of information society and road-mapping the applications of future mobile technologies and multi media services;
Analysing the impact of e-society trends on the transport system;
Investigating the concept of digital identities in a mobile Europe;
Assessing the impact of IST on scientific research.
Rationale
In March 2000, the Lisbon European Council highlighted the potential for growth, competitiveness and job creation of the shift to a digital knowledge-based economy and it set the ambitious objective for Europe to become the most competitive and dynamic economy in the world. The eEurope 2002 Action Plan proposed by the Commission (DG Information Society) provides a roadmap for actions until the end of 2002 in order to meet this objective. This action plan was endorsed at the Feira Summit in June 2000.
In this context, the overall objective of IPTS work in this area is to assess the impact of the transition towards an information society, and to help our main clients (identified above) to take the right actions in order to ensure that EU citizens will indeed benefit from this transition. This particular project focuses on future regulatory implications, aspects of user acceptance of new technologies and services, and on the technologies themselves.
In the European context the pressure for change is augmented by other drivers, such as enlargement, the economic integration process, demographic transformations and emigration. These compound the new techno-economic paradigm to challenge traditional European values, principles and policy goals -
quality of life, employment, competitiveness, social cohesion, sustainability and good governance.
In other words, Europe is facing a transition from a conglomerate of national 9-to-5 societies and economies towards an integrated 24-hour continent operating in a globalise context. It needs to find ways to accommodate this transition in a sustainable way.
The concept of a Mobile Europe can be the basis for formulating a roadmap that helps to reconcile these forces for change with the characteristics and goals of a growing European society. Technology, and especially ICT, may be a driver of change toward a Mobile Europe, but technology offers also many solutions. It can help to create the innovations necessary for realising policy goals.
