Embedded Tutorial - ARTEMIS and ENIAC Joint Undertakings: A New Approach to Conduct Research in Europe

Summary form only given. This special session will present the two first ever Europe-wide public private R&D partnerships ARTEMIS and ENIAC. ARTEMIS will address the invisible computers (embedded systems) that today run all machines from cars, planes and phones, from energy networks and factories to washing machines and televisions. ENIAC will target the very high level of miniaturisation required for the next generations of nanoelectronics components. These joint technology initiatives (JTI´s ) on embedded computing systems and nano-electronics will pool industry, Member states and Commission resources into targeted research programmes. The session will include global presentations on the initiatives and information on the expected research topics included in the first calls in 2008.
