ICT Work Programme approach and structure
• ICT theme focuses on a limited set of Challenges that – respond to well-identified industry and technology needs
and/or– target specific socio-economic goals
• A Challenge is addressed through a limited set of Objectives that form the basis of Calls for Proposals
• An Objective is described in terms of– target outcome– expected impact on industrial competitiveness, societal goals,.. – funding schemes
• A total of 25 Objectives expressed within 7 Challenges

Challenges
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
• Network and service infrastructures underpin economic progress and the development of our societies – 2 billion mobile terminals in commercial operation, 1 billion Internet
users, 400 million internet enabled devices
• A growing and changing demand– for increasing user control of content/services
for networking ‘things’ - TV/PC/phone/sensors/tags …for convergence: networks|devices|services - video/audio/data/voice/.
• Current technologies can be, and need to be improved significantly– for scaling up and more flexibility
for better security, dependability and robustnessfor higher performance and more functionality
• Europe is well-positioned: industry, technology and use
Challenge 1: Pervasive and trusted network & service
infrastructures
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
• Today’s ICT systems cannot learn from experience and reason, cannot contextualise and adapt, and cannot (inter)act based on observation and learning
– many ICT applications cannot be developed further if there are no new breakthroughs in machine intelligence and systems engineering …
• Overcoming such technology roadblocks opens the doors to a wide range of opportunities in new application fields
– vision/sensing systems, service robots, health robots, industrial robots, multimodal and multilingual interactions ...
• Europe has key assets to build on – world leadership in industrial robotics and systems engineering– mastering of multiple disciplines: neuroscience, microsystems …– excellent academic research in these fields
Challenge 2: Cognitive systems, robotics and interaction
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
• Electronic systems underpin trillion Euro ICT markets
• Electronic systems are embedded in all artefacts of life– 20-40% of the value of new products comes from embedded electronics– increasing demand for lower cost, higher performance components
• Europe is currently leading in embedded electronics in a number of industries
– car safety, engine control, fly-by-wire avionics, telecom equipment, medical equipment, industrial automation …
• European firms also among top semiconductor manufacturers and equipment companies
• Europe enjoys leading positions in emerging fields – photonics, plastic electronics, flexible displays, integrated
micro/nanosystems …
Challenge 3: Components, systems, engineering
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
Challenge 4: Digital libraries and content
• Growing load of information and content and increasing demands for knowledge and skills– in less than 10 years, the average person will be managing
terabytes of videos, music, photos, and documents every day– digital content production | consumption:
from “few-to-many” to “many-to-many” models
• Today’s technology provides limited tools for access/interaction, development/creation, delivery/diffusion and preservation of content & knowledge
• Europe, with its unique cultural heritage and creative potential, is well placed to take advantage of technology developments and their use
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
Challenge 5: Towards sustainable and personalised
healthcare • Rising demands on healthcare
– by 2050 close to 40% of the Union’s population will be over 65 years– growing expectations of citizens for better care– increasing mobility of patients and health professionals– need to respond to risks for emerging diseases
• By 2010, ICT for Health spending may account for up to 5% of the EU’s total health budget, up from just 1% in 2000– need to access, understand and securely manage huge amounts of
health information
• ICT is also supporting progress in medical research and a shift towards evidence-based medicine
• European businesses have every opportunity to become leading global players in the new ICT for Health industry
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
Challenge 6: ICT for Mobility, environmental sustainability and
energy efficiency • Growing demand for transport services
– more congestion, higher energy consumption, pollutant emissions
• Accidents causing fatalities and injuries – over 40.000 fatalities on the EU roads every year
• Increasing demand for natural resources – 1-2% per year for energy and growing water consumption
• Natural and industrial disasters has doubled in one decade– killing 500.000 people and causing 700 billion of damage
• Europe’s industry is one of the most competitive– automotive, transportation, civil protection, equipment supply …
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
Challenge 7: ICT for Independent Living and Inclusion
• Between 1998 and 2025 the proportion of the population classified as elderly will increase from 20% to 28% – more people with high disability rates– smaller productive workforce
• Need for a paradigm shift in health and social careand new requirements for inclusion, accessability and usability
• Complexity and lack of accessibility and usability of many ICT-based products and services is a major barrier for many people
• A major economic opportunity for European industry
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
Future and Emerging Technologies
Objective• Lay foundations of the ICT innovations of tomorrow• Foster trans-disciplinary research excellence in emerging ICT-related
research domains• Help emerging research communities to organise and structure their
research agenda• Avoid ‘tunnel vision’ in FP7, by exploring unconventional ‘minority’
options and opportunities off the beaten track
FET Open Scheme• Open Call for continuous submissions• Open to any foundational ICT-related research of High-risk / high-
potential impact
FET Pro-active Initiatives• Fundamental cross-cutting long-term challenges in ICT• ICT Call 3
Treviso, May 22nd, BRISE Conference
• International cooperation– To pave the way for strategic partnerships in view of developing
global standards and interoperable solutions and strengthening EU competitiveness
– To widen the diffusion of the information society, especially in developing countries and strengthened the EU policy for development
• Trans-national co-operation among National Contact Points– One proposal including officially appointed NCPs– To improve NCP service across Europe– To help to simplify access to FP7 calls– To lower the entry barriers for newcomers– To raise the quality of submitted proposals
