MTA SZTAKI, 1111 Budapest, Kende u. 13-17 2 Contribution to capacity building through attracting young researchers The Quality Management Department has employed 3 young researchers in the reporting period. 3 Enhanced participation in the 5th Framework Programme 3.1 IDEALIST 5FP Information Dissemination and European Awareness Launch for the IST Programme under the 5th Framework Programme IST-1999-14184 The aim of the project is to reduce the barriers faced by organisations wishing to participate in the IST programme. The approach is carried out by: 1. Making partnering easier; 2. Providing through workshops, seminars and conferencies, an international environment in which proposers can learn about the IST programme; 3. Suggesting how the IST programme procedures and Workprogramme can be made more user-friendly; 4. Increasing the effectiveness of IST National Contact Points (NCP) with emphasis on the NCP of the newly associated countries. http://www.ideal-ist.net 3.1.1 Partners Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt E.V. -Germany Malta Council for Science and Technology-Malta Singleimage Limited-United Kingdom Senter-Netherlands Bent Egebart Informatik-Denmark 4/7 Centro Para El Desarrollo Tecnologico Industrial-Spain Silesian University of Technology-Poland The Research Council of Norway-Norway National Technology Agency-Finland Radet for Forsknings-Och Utvecklingssamarbete Mellan Sverige Och EuSweden Reseau Suisse d'Innovation-Switzerland Institutul National de Cercetare-Dezvoltare in Informatica - Ici Bucuresti Ra-Romania Magyar Tudomanyos Akademia Szamitastechnikai es Automatizalasi Kutato Intezet-Hungary Bit Buero für Internationale Forschungs- und TechnologiekooperationAustria Sihtasutus Archimedes-Estonia University of Cyprus-Cyprus Haskoli Islands-Iceland Enterprise Ireland-Ireland University of Latvia, Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science-Latvia Academy of Sciences of The Czech Republic - Institute of Information Theory and Automation-Czech Republic Consorzio Pisa Ricerche-Italy Centre du Commerce Exterieur-France Gabinete de Relacoes Internacionais da Ciencia E do Ensino SuperiorPortugal Slovak University of Technology-Slovakia Turkiye Bilimsel Ve Teknik Arastirma Kurumu - Tubitak-Turkey Bulgarian Academy of Sciences-Bulgaria Alprocor S.A., Societe Anonyme-Luxembourg Jozef Stefan Institute-Slovenia National Documentation Centre/National Hellenic Research FoundationGreece Israel Industry Centre for R&D - Israel Directorate For EU FP5-Israel Luxinnovation Gie, Agence Nationale-Luxembourg Lietuvos Innovaciju Centras-Lithuania 3.2 TEAMWORK Technology Exploitation and Adaptable Methodologies offering new Organisational Models and Practices for e-Working Teams IST-2000-28162 Objective is to develop and apply a novel, integrated solution for distributed eworking organisations through the innovative and creative combination of Technology, Methodology and a Skills solution / Social analysis http://www.euteamwork.net 5/7 3.2.1 Partners TecNet (Technology Network) - Ireland ISCN (International Software Consulting Network) - Ireland The General Foundation of Valladolid University - Spain MTA SZTAKI (Computer and Automation Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Science) - Qualty Management Department - Hungary Faculty of Electrotechnical Engineering and Computer Science, Institute of Informatics, University of Maribor - Slovenia DANUBE - Department R&D, Innovation and Technology Transfer - Austria Hyperwave AG - Germany System and Software Engineering Centre, QinetiQ - United Kingdom GMV S.A.- Spain APS - Austria BisDato - Austria Letterkenny Institute of Technology - Ireland Institute of Technology Tralee - Ireland Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT) - Ireland 3.3 CBSENET Component BaSEd innovation NETwork IST-2001-35485 Component-based software engineering is an approach to software systems development, which is based around the reuse of existing general-purpose software components. System implementation involves integrating these components within some framework. Although there are overlaps in partners and informal communications between research initiatives through out Europe, we believe that all existing and future projects in this area as well as potential adopters of CBSE technology could benefit from a more systematic approach to information interchange. Thus CBSEnet will be a network which aims to a) create a European-wide forum for the exchange of information between researchers and developers working in the area of CBSE; b) suggest how CBSE technologies could improve software engineering processes in different domains and to propose future research requirements for development and deployment of CBSE technologies. http://www.cbsenet.org 6/7 3.3.1 Partners Engineering - Ingegneria Informatica - S.P.a. - Italy The University of Lancaster-United Kingdom Fundacion European Software Institute-spain SINTEF - Stiftelsen for Industriell Og Teknisk Forskning Ved Norges Tekniske Hoegskole-Norway Magyar Tudomanyos Akademia Szamitastechnikai Es Automatizalasi Kutato Intezet-Hungary Universita degli Studi del Sannio-Italy Athens Technology Center S.A.-Greece 3.4 SQUFOL Software Quality Founded On Design Laws IST-2001-37003 As with systems in management science and economics, software development (the development includes the whole software system life-cycle: from the idea/statement of need to its use and maintenance) has similar system attributes, i.e. as a complex, dynamic, non-linear and adaptive system. Consequently, the aim of the session is to gain a fundamental understanding of the software process and the software product. The proposed approach will use the science of complexity, various system theories, the theory of chaos, fractals and other, traditionally "physically based" methodologies, theory of complex adaptive systems, biologically and evolutionary inspired economic/market theories, intelligent data analysis, data mining which are not yet recognised by software design researchers. Our aim is to significantly improve the basic knowledge about and the fitness and quality of the software product, its quality and its development process in short develop and introduce well understood software design processes first leading to well understood software and related products of superior quality. http://squfol.uni-mb.si/ 3.4.1 Partners University of Maribor, FERI - Slovenia South Bank University - UK Rila Solutions EAD - Bulgaria, USA University of the West of England, Bristol - UK Lucent Technologies network systems GMBH - Germany MTA SZTAKI (Computer and Automation Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Science) - Qualty Management Department - Hungary LogicDIS S.A. - Greece 7/7
