Fragility and sustainability in restricted island environments: adaptation, cultural change and collapse in prehistory (Fragsus)

Date du début: 1 mai 2013, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2018,

Sustainability of societies in a restricted or fragile environment forms a perpetual question, past and present underpinning questions of the rise and fall of civilisation. Today, the eroded Maltese islands support one of the densest human populations in the world. When first colonised in the 6th millennium BC, pristine soil and forest covered the landscape, but within centuries the landscape was ...

An Adaptive, highly Scalable Analytics Platform (ASAP)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,

This project proposes a unified, open-source execution framework for scalable data analytics. Data analytics tools have become essential for harnessing the power of our era's data deluge. Current technologies are restrictive, as their efficacy is usually bound to a single data and compute model, often depending on proprietary systems. The main idea behind ASAP is that no single execution model ...

Evaluation and Development of Wind Turbine Generator Technologies (EDWTGT)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2016,

"Renewable energy has been widely recognised as a growth area, and thus included in the ten themes of the FP7 for research and technological development. At this moment it is wind energy that is firmly in the spotlight because this is the only feasible source of renewables to be utilised economically in quantities. Traditionally, medium and large wind turbines use doubly-fed induction generators ( ...

Significance-Based Computing for Reliability and Power Optimization (SCoRPiO)

Date du début: 1 juin 2013, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,

Manufacturing process variability at low geometries and power dissipation are the most challenging problems in the design of future computing systems. Currently manufacturers go to great lengths to guarantee fault-free operation of their products by introducing redundancy in voltage margins, conservative layout rules, and extra protection circuitry. However, such design redundancy may result into ...

Eye-hand coordination in space and time (EYEHAND)

Date du début: 1 mai 2013, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,

"Loss of arm function can have a severe impact on a patient’s life and results in a loss of productivity. As a remedy, scientists are currently developing brain-machine interfaces, which ultimately would allow patients to control a cybernetic arm by thought, through signals recorded from the brain. Even though many basic real-life situations, such as interacting with other people and navigating tr ...

Parallel Patterns for Adaptive Heterogeneous Multicore Systems (ParaPhrase)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,

A revolution is happening in computer hardware. After three decades during which microprocessor speeds increased almost 4000 times, we are starting to hit long-predicted physical limits on the speed of a single processor. Recent computers instead use two, four or even twelve processor cores working together ``in parallel'', giving peak performance that is equivalent to a 5GHz, 10GHz or even 30GHz ...

This IOF fellowship merges together two unique concepts toward a common goal, which can have significant benefit to the end users – the patients. It investigates the potential of a less invasive approach to surgeries through the use of injectable biosilica-filled adhesive hydrogels comprised of a sustainable biosilica phase and a marine inspired adhesive hydrogel. The IOF fellowship is with Nort ...

"Prevention, protection and REaction to CYber attackS to critical infrastructures" (PRECYSE)

Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,

"Today, attackers are using more sophisticated technologies, making existing “add-on” security solutions obsolete or insufficient, and the number of stakeholders involved –both human and machines– is always increasing. Thus, design and embedding of new security mechanisms directly into the systems is needed to drastically increase reliability and security levels, and provide higher levels of resil ...

Incorporating Laughter into Human-Avatar Interactions: Research and Evaluation (ILHAIRE)

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

Laughter is a significant feature of human communication, and machines acting in roles like companions or tutors should not be blind to it. So far very limited progress has been made towards allowing computer-based applications to deal with laughter.ILHAIRE will lay the foundations of truly multimodal, multicultural laughter-enabled man-machine interaction, by associating experts of the different ...

Temporal Enhancement of Motor Performance Using Sensory Guides (TEMPUS_G)

Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2013,

Temporally controlling our movements to successfully perform an action (e.g. directing our eyes to read this text, picking up a pen, drinking from a cup) is something we do thousands of times a day, without thinking twice. Given that many of these actions are self-paced, (i.e. no perceptual timing cues are provided by the environment) prospective control has to be determined by intrinsic neural me ...

Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2011,

The development of a sense of positive identification with the 'European project' by ordinary citizens is crucial for the long-term success of the European Union. The current state-of-the-art in research into European identity has been driven almost exclusively by a 'top down' elitist perspective that focuses upon the development of an identification with 'Europe' through centrally-driven policies ...
