Projet 4  
Virtualizing and Maximizing Opportunisum with Wireless Mesh Networking (German
http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/events/cf/item-display.cfm?id=1220

Virtualizing and Maximizing Opportunisum with Wireless Mesh Networking
We like to form a STREP consortium, of operators, vendors, and technology
developers: we are interested in working with reliable partners, especially
the
industry. We are not intending to coordinate, but would be also fine if no one
else takes the lead. 
The objective is to work on: 
1) virtualizing wireless nets resources
2) utilizing opportunities with wireless mesh nets: throughput, routing,
performance, and security
Any comments, suggestions, inputs, and contacts with me are more than welcome.

Thème 1.2 Internet of Services, Software & Virtualisation

Projet 1
Event-driven Business Process Management (Germany)
http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/events/cf/item-display.cfm?id=1041

Event-driven Business Process Management
Business process modeling became popular in the context of enterprise
reorganization and modernization in the early 1990’s. A business process is a
structured set of activities designed to produce a specified measurable result
for a particular customer or market. The common understanding behind Business
Process Management (BPM) is that each company’s unique way of doing
business is
captured in its business processes. In the last years, BPM has become a common
tool in larger IT projects and workflow engines able to execute business
processes became quite popular. 
In depth discussion between the industry and the research community about the
realization of the Event-Driven BPM in the Future Internet of Services is
needed.

Thème 3.5 Engineering of networked monitoring and control systems

projet 1   
-       PH Center (Remote help center, diagnosis and intervention for
technical
processes management (Romania) Recherche un coordinateur  
http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/events/cf/item-display.cfm?id=1067

PH Center (Remote help center, diagnosis and intervention for technical
processes management ) -COORDINATOR NEEDED
The diagnosis system and debugging will allow the specialists working in the
center to analyze the processes data in real time, identify the problems and
recommend or even apply solution using remote desktop, via Internet. 
The remote diagnosis service will be improved continuously by using the
knowledge gained in the center for various applications with different
solutions and correlating them will show a decisive factor for the decisions
took in the next activities. This will diminish the time for solving the
problems and the time for stopping the plant through software strategies. 
This project aims to achieve a software packet unique on the European market,
bringing new features even to the international market. PH Center will run
remotely, via Internet, supervising and tuning the control loops even if they
are affected by different kinds of perturbations. The development of this
product will increase competitiveness on the industrial market. The main
advantage of remote tuning system is that it assures intervention at anytime
and from anywhere in the world. The software package can be used permanently
for the analysis of several the control loops or to monitor the performance of
already tuned loops, preventing hazards. Moreover, PH Center offers the
advantages of reducing the time during which the plant works at critical
parameters, extending the life cycle of the technological installation,
reducing the risk of material loss, reducing the risk of polluting or human
casualties. Therefore, PH Center will increase the safety in industrial
processes and will deal with crisis management.

Thème  6.3 ICT for Energy Efficiency

Projet 1
ARCHINETIC (Spain)
http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/events/cf/item-display.cfm?id=1247

ARCHINETIC - INTELLIGENT EXPERT TOOLS FOR ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS ON ENERGY
EFFICIENCY OPTIMISATION FOR BULDINGS: A SET OF TOOLS FOR DESIGN, MATERIAL
SELECTION, CALCULATIONS AND ENERGY ASSESSMENT
BACKGROUND
The shortage of traditional energetic sources has brought efficiency in the
use
of energy as a prioritized concern in every energy consuming process. Besides
that, sustainability, and more particularly, CO2 emission reduction, is a
prioritized goal after Kyoto Protocol was signed up by all European countries.
One of the most important fields is buildings design, construction and
exploitation, one of the sectors with highest CO2 emission and with highest
energy consumption. European normative (SAVE 76/93 CO2, for instance) and
regional normative (Basic document HE for energy saving, technical code for
buildings, March 2006) enforce the obligation for new building projects to be
optimized in terms of energy efficiency and sustainability. Public opinion is
being more and more sensible about those issues. To address the problem of
efficiency of energy in buildings, the integral life cycle of the building has
to be analyzed in an integrated manner. The recent European directives go in
that direction.
There are 3 stages in the life cycle of a building project in which energy
efficiency has to be addressed:
• Design: nowadays only buildings marketed as “bioclimatic architecture”
address energy in design
• Choice of materials: nowadays energy in materials is rarely taken into
account. Embodied energy, transport and mounting have to be taken into
account,
and the optimal physical properties of new materials like composites are often
underestimated by lack of knowledge.
• Installations, exploitation: nowadays often addressed independently, without
taking into account previous stages
Architects and engineers need integrated tools and expert support they don’t
have right now. They use diverse software tools for geometry 3D design,
structures computation, materials databases, illumination, acclimatization,
renewable energy generation, and so on. Software is dispersed and neither
communicates nor integrates. There’s a clear need for an integrated
intelligent
decision support software tool for energy efficiency optimization for
buildings.
Objectives
The proposed solution is to create a user friendly software application with
advanced AI techniques, which will ask for inputs such as Design of building
project, potential use of renewable energies, installations and exploitation
needs, etc. to outcome as outputs an Expert set of alternatives for energy
efficiency improvement, and multiple and flexible options to fix a number
parameters of the set of selected alternatives and set up ranges for others to
iteratively seek the optimal solution in terms of energy efficiency.
The incorporation of the suggested alternatives, by means of different
modules,
to the project will interact with the rest of factors, will affect the
building
and maintenance costs, and consumption of energy, all that quantified by the
application to enable the decision making. For the development of the project
some third party software components might be integrated which will solve
issues which commercial standalone products already solve, and which
architects
and engineers currently use, such as 3D Geometry, CAD, Materials Databases,
Structures computation, Installations of light and climate, Renewable energy
sources.
Dissemination will include the most relevant issues and publications.
