Cross-Programme Actions
– topics common to several Key Actions (avoiding
fragmentation)
– topics of a strategic nature reflecting the IST vision
– topics not foreseen when IST was set-up
– support integration, convergence and building of
critical mass
– 13 Action Lines in WP2001 (~20% of workprogramme
content)
– provide support to eEurope (large scale
demonstrations & trials)
