DAFNE: Use of a Decision-Analytic Framework to explore the water-energy-food NExus in complex and trans-boundary water resources systems of fast growing developing countries. (DAFNE)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 2020,

Global trends in population growth and rising economic prosperity will increase the demand for energy, food and water, with more severe impact in fast-growing economies, such as in several African countries. The constraints on water, energy, and food could well hamper economic development, lead to social and geopolitical tensions, and cause lasting environmental damage. DAFNE advocates an integrat ...

Hijacking cell signalling pathways with magnetic nanoactuators for remote-controlled stemcell therapies of neurodegenerative disorders (MAGNEURON)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease, are a major public health issue given the aging population in Europe and beyond. While curative pharmacological treatment of these diseases is not in sight, cell replacement therapies (CTs) are considered very promising, in particular with the advent of stem-cell reprogramming technologies. However, a fundamental challenge in the medical app ...

Socialising Sensori-Motor Contingencies (socSMCs)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,

As robots become more omnipresent in our society, we are facing the challenge of making them more socially competent. However, in order to safely and meaningfully cooperate with humans, robots must be able to interact in ways that humans find intuitive and understandable. Addressing this challenge, we propose a novel approach for understanding and modelling social behaviour and implementing social ...

Concept Invention Theory (COINVENT)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,

The capacity of combinational creativity---i.e., when novel ideas are produced through unfamiliar combinations of familiar ideas---is difficult to recreate computationally. In particular, it is a hard task for autonomous computational systems to tackle the combinatorial explosion of potential combinations, and to be capable of recognizing the value of newly created ideas (concepts, theories, solut ...

Robustness by Autonomous Competence Enhancement (RACE)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2014,

Description The aim of RACE is to develop an artificial cognitive system, embodied by a service robot, able to build a high-level understanding of the world it inhabits by storing and exploiting appropriate memories of its experiences. In this way, experiences provide a detailed account of how the robot has achieved past goals or how it has ...

Internet of Things Environment for Service Creation and Testing (IoT.est)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,

To date implementations of Internet of Things architectures are confined to particular application areas and tailored to meet only the limited requirements of their narrow applications. The ICT workprogramme highlights the importance of interoperability between the silo solutions and different technologies used in these disjointed sectors. Sensors/objects that provide information or perform as act ...

Policy Science Interactions: connecting science and policy through innovative knowledge brokering (PSI-connect)

Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,

European policy makers and researchers recognise the large policy potential of research in the field of sustainable development, but the potential is not fully used. PSI-connect wants to contribute to bridging the gap between science and policy in the field of the impacts of climate change on water management. The decoupling challenge from the EU Sustainable Development Strategy implies that impac ...
