From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Background

Conducting European research policies and implementing European research programmes is an obligation under the Amsterdam Treaty, which includes a chapter on research and technological development. Since even entire Member States find it increasingly difficult to play a leading role in many important areas of scientific and technological advance, international cooperation is needed.

It was estimated in 2006 that the contribution of € 7 billion/year might generate a GDP increase of € 200 billion/year in the 2030s.^[1] Proponents gave the intangible incentive to face the intrinsic complexity of international collaborations. Diversity introduces additional costs, but it facilitates addressing competitors in an even more diverse world. Changes triggered by research policy directly affect people and enterprises, which experience broader horizons and experience the advantages of international collaboration. This complements the institutional activities of the EU, building a community united in diversity capable of facing the challenges of a globalized world.^[2]

To advise the European Commission on the overall strategy to be followed in carrying out the Information and Communication Technology thematic priority, the Information Society Technologies Advisory Group (ISTAG) was set up. It reflects and advises on the definition and implementation of a coherent policy for research in and on ICT in Europe.^[3]

[edit] Instruments

Framework Programme projects are generally funded through instruments, the most important of which are listed below.

Integrated Project (IP)

Medium- to large-sized collaborative research projects funded in FP6 and FP7. They are composed of a minimum of 3 partners coming from 3 different countries from Associated states but can join several tens of partners. The typical duration of such projects is 3 to 5 years but there is not a defined upper limit. The budget granted by the Commission can reach several tens of million euros, paid as a fraction of the actual costs spent by the participants.^[4]

IPs specifically aim at fostering European competitiveness in basic research and applied science with a focus on “addressing major needs in society” defined by the Priority Themes of the Framework Programme. Like STRePs (see below), IPs ask for a strong participation of small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to ascertain the translation of research results into commercially viable products or services.^[5]

Network of Excellence (NoE)

Medium-sized research projects co-funded by the European Commission in FP6 and FP7. These projects are “designed to strengthen scientific and technological excellence on a particular research topic through the durable integration of the research capacities of the participants.”^[6]

NoE projects require the minimum participation of three different EU member nations, however, projects are usually expected to involve at least six countries.^[7] Projects are provided grants for a maximum of seven years. The budget granted by the Commission is €1-6million per year depending upon the number of researchers involved.^[7]

An NoE project should not strictly be considered as a research project, since its aim is not to conduct research, but rather to contribute to the clarification of the concepts in the covered field.^{[citation needed]}

Specific Targeted Research Projects (STReP)

Medium-sized research projects funded by the European Commission in the FP6 and FP7 funding programs. STReP projects are composed by a minimum of 3 partners coming from 3 different countries from Associated states. The typical duration of such projects is 2 to 3 years and are generally involving between 6 and 15 partners. The budget granted by the Commission is usually around €2million.^{[citation needed]}

These concrete project results will be validated within three large-scale Testbeds from diverse application areas.^[55]

[edit] SecureChange

SecureChange (Security Engineering for Lifelong Evolvable Systems) is a research project with the objective to develop techniques and tools that ensure “lifelong” compliance to evolving security, privacy and dependability requirements for a long-running evolving software system.

[edit] SIDER

“Radiation shielding of composite space enclosures” project (SIDER) ^[56] is funded by the European Union‘s 7th Framework Programme under Cooperation Specific Programme and addresses the objectives of activity 9.2 “Strengthening the foundations of Space science and technology”, SPA.2010.2.3-01 “Security of space assets from space weather events”. The project started in December 2010 and will run for 3 years.

Space electronics systems employ enclosures to shield sensitive components from space radiation. The purpose of shielding is to attenuate the energy of charged particles as they pass through the shield material. The standard practice in space hardware is the use of aluminium as both a radiation shield and structural enclosure. The new concepts for lightweight satellite show the possibilities of using advanced designs based on composite housings. Nevertheless, the radiation effect on composites is still scarcely investigated.

The main objective of SIDER is “the development of the technologies and tools required to obtain lightweight, safe, robust and reliable composite structures”.
