Vision of the IST programme
”Create an ambient intelligence landscape
(for seamless delivery of services and applications)
in Europe relying also upon testbeds and
open source software, develop user-friendliness,
and develop and converge the networking infrastructure in Europe to
world-class"
M. Richonnier
6
Vision of the IST - KA1
“Ambient intelligence”
Beyond “ the screen and keyboard interface”
 A knowledge society for ALL
 “Our surrounding is the interface” to IST
applications and services
 Multi-sensorial interfaces supported by computing
and networking:

– everywhere
– in everyday objects
– offering natural interactions (voice, gesture etc.)
M. Richonnier
7
IST KA1 R&D paradigms



From data telematics (3rd FP) to multi-media telematics
(4th FP) to ambient intelligence (5th FP)
Ambient intelligence = ubiquitous computing + ubiquitous
communication + intelligent interfaces which will allow...
The realisation of innovative, user-friendly, intelligent and
communicating application systems that will improve
delivery of services to users.
M. Richonnier
8
Reminder on IST

Visible part of integration: Cross Programme Actions and
Integrated Application Platforms (12% of budget) =
“the tip of the iceberg”

Application R&D (+/- 50% of the budget) combines both
technology research and system integration

Genuine industrial participation with a view to
exploitation of results
M. Richonnier
9
Key Action 1: Objectives

Exploit the potential offered by progress in “ambient
intelligence” through RTD in new application systems
for making general interest services user-friendly,
dependable, cost-effective and interoperable.
 improve competitiveness & meet user demands
M. Richonnier
10
Key Action 1:Aim
1. Innovative application systems,
i.e. systems that will be new at the end of the project
Innovative integration
- progress wrt state of the art
New IST components
2. That have significant exploitation potential
M. Richonnier
11
Key Action 1:Focus

Improving impact:
– Critical mass:
• Open to larger projects - no “one size fits all”
– Concentration on strategic issues
Focus on the vision of “ambient intelligence”
 Fostering longer-term and/or high-risk effort
 Reinforcing the eEurope momentum beyond 2002

M. Richonnier

KEY Action 1: Our goals
GOAL 1
Attract RTD proposals with critical mass, strategic impact
and real economic value, e.g. an average EU funding
of 2.0 M€
M. Richonnier
15
KEY Action 1: Our goals
GOAL 2
Attract Consortia that are manageable and where all
partners have a clear role and a significant task in
contribution, e.g.:
 Consortia of not more than 6 partners is ideal
 No partner with microscopic input (such as 15000 €
per year!)
M. Richonnier
16
KEY Action 1: Our goals
GOAL 3
In order to avoid cost on your and our side, only high
quality proposals should be submitted, e.g.:
 Over-subscription not more than a factor of 4

Audit certificates
Only RTD i.e. research, demonstration and combined
research and demonstration projects
 When the contract has
– A cost of more than 250 000 Euros for the first 12 month period
of the project, the audit certificate to be provided with first interim
cost statement
– A total project cost exceeding 250 000 Euros for the final
consolidated cost statement, the audit certificate to be provided
together with the final consolidated cost statement, also for those
that have provided audit certificates with their first interim cost
statement

Eligible costs
– Community financial contribution shall not exceed 4000 Euros
32
per audit certificate
Some Evaluation Feedback

Evaluators consider all aspects of the proposal
and have different backgrounds
– Experts in IST, knowledgeable in application area,
understand business issues

Proposers have to make convincing case of
innovation and present very clear objectives
– Your strategic objectives matter most
Proposal has to be realistic and “exciting” at the
same time
 Make the case for Community funding

– i.e. both European level and need for public money
33
Some Evaluation Feedback

All partners must have a clear role and the
consortium has to reach “critical mass”
– importance of “Consortium engineering”

Carefully consider “release” level of deliverables
– note e.g. the objective to foster the development and
use of open source software

Management has to consider all issues e.g.
– risk management
– handling of conflict
– communication strategy
34
Some Evaluation Feedback

The proposal may not have a weak point
– thresholds and weighting
– each evaluation criteria discussed on its own merits

Avoid easy criticism
– ask colleagues to critique early versions
Proposals which are “incontournable” have up to
now always been funded
 Evaluators evaluate what is written, not what is in
your mind
 Evaluators look more for content than style
