Köln 2007: Information Day on European ICT Research & Development - FP7 – ICT Proposers Day

Congress Centrum Koelnmesse, Köln - 1 February 2007

Follow up IST 2006 with a visit to Köln 2007!

A one day event to help ICT researchers respond to the calls for
proposals under the work programme 2007/2008 of the 7th Framework
Programme for R&D.

FP7-ICT Proposers Day, Köln 2007, will be an opportunity to meet other people with similar or complementary research interests, and wishing to form project consortia. In preparation for attending the event, we would encourage you to prepare a profile of yourself,
and your organisation's research interests. If you are forming a
research consortia, it may also help you to provide a short profile of
the skills / industrial expertise you are looking to find, from others that will be attending the Information Day. In January 2007, this website will be expanded to support the on-line networking and exchange of ideas
amongst participants, prior to and in preparation for the event. As for
the networking part of IST 2006, you will be able to post your ideas to
a range of on-line fora centred on each objective of the Workprogramme.
By browsing though these in advance of the event, you will quickly be
able to find and make contact with interesting people that you wish to
meet during your visit to Köln.
The Information Day is
essentially an unstructured event. What you get out of it will
essentially depend on how much you have prepared yourself in advance.

A series of 'networking booths' , each corresponding to part of the work programme, will be provided.

Apart from meeting each other, researchers will be able to meet Commission Staff bilaterally to discuss such issues as:

  • the scope and objectives of the work programme

  • the instruments

  • evaluation under FP7

  • rules for participation and the general working of the programme.

Reliable Infrastructures in Organisations

Secure, dependable and trusted infrastructures to us
means that enterprises (also authorities etc.) have to be equipped such
that different kinds of attacks, failures, accidents, natural disasters
etc. may perhaps affect the infrastructure, but not to an extent that
jeopardizes the business or service processes depending on this
infrastructure(s). A lot of intelligent strategies are needed to ensure
this and to ensure it at acceptable costs. This is especially true for
but not restricted to ICT infrastructure.

We plan to submit a proposal for a project which will
contribute to this goal via several european wide information exchange
techniques.

Proposals on identity management/biometrics

AIIA Lab AUTH has participated in 40+ EU funded R&D projects and has 7 books, 550+ publications on digital media.

We are interested in cooperating in FP7 proposals on
identity management/biometrics, since we have strong expertize on such
topics, notably in

facial biometrics, anthropocentric (human centered)
video analysis, human detection/tracking, human activity
detection/description,

video/image content watermarking/fingerprinting.

Profile and infos can be found in www page http://poseidon.csd.auth.gr.

MeshID=SemanticMesh for working-living on trusted MeshUp

During ISI GAM-2 , CONSEN presented the proposal MeshID (SemanticMesh)
as basic and simple (multidisciplinary bottom-up) approach to strength
the identity, privacy and casting of individual users (persons-groups)
as FP7 call-1 cluster of 3 proposals of ICT for Trust, Business and Inclusion ACAAL
raised on: Security and trust in dynamic and reconfigurable service
architectures; Trusted computing infrastructures and Identity
management and privacy enhancing tools.

MeshID is based on:

- ULICA Unique Local Identification

- Public and Private Information (PAPI) standard, OpenID, MicroFormat applied to Mashups (merging on web),

but extended to Broadband, Broadcast, Satellite, Wireless, Mobile nets (pls. See PostIP)

- Meshup technology
to merge contents, applications, ... , devices, licenses, countries
regulations, protocols, standards, nets for creating and supplying new
and innovative Information Services to the Society.

The request of the users is: On the NET we want.....

- Only Have One Profile to update, define access, preferences, foreground and control our privacy (i.e. email)

- Syndicate All profiles, Label our contributions with our local rich media content and unique signature

- Only Sign-on one to locate, identify, authenticate, authorize and characterize

- Only one switch-off/on to
dis/connect on holidays, define our security channel, risk messaging,
everywhere in an unique personal device (mobile)

We seek

- competences to define SoA

- ETPs, Industries to create a EU mainstream, Critical Mass

- partners to cooperate in a sustainable, social responsible exploitation of results.
