An integrated concept of tumor metastasis: implications for therapy (TuMIC)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

From many perspectives our concept of the process of metastasis is inadequate and needs to be revised. In particular, the potential impact of recent ideas about the cellular basis of tumor growth (cancer stem cells) and the establishment by remote tumors of special permissive microenvironments in target organs prior to metastasis (metastatic niches) remains to be explored. In the TuMIC project we ...

Investigation of Si wafer damage in manufacturing processes (SIDAM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

Wafer handling in semiconductor manufacturing introduces microcracks at the wafer edge. During thermal processing, some of these grow into slip bands; on rapid thermal processing some of these grow into cracks, shattering the wafer and disrupting manufacture. Dense slip bands also lead to yield loss by locally increasing diffusion rates. Breakage losses alone were of the order of €2.5M p.a. for a ...

Ethical Issues of Emerging ICT Applications (ETICA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2011,

The ETICA project will identify emerging Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and their potential application areas in order to analyse and evaluate ethical issues arising from these. By including a variety of stakeholders and disciplinary perspectives, it will grade and rank foreseeable ethical risks. Based on the study governance arrangements currently used to address ICT ethics in ...

EU Fusion for ITER Applications (EUFORIA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

ITER is the next generation of fusion devices and is intended to demonstrate the scientific and technical feasibility of fusion as a sustainable energy source for the future. To exploit the full potential of the device and to guarantee optimal operation for the device a high degree of physics modelling and simulation is needed already in the current construction phase of the ITER project. First pr ...

Quality Impact Prediction for Evolving Service-Oriented Software (Q-ImPrESS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

The Q-ImPrESS project aims at bringing service orientation to critical software systems, such as industrial production control, telecommunication and critical enterprise applications. All these domains share a need for guaranteed end-to-end quality of service, but also a need to evolve over their long lifetimes. The Q-ImPrESS project targets this challenge by providing a method to allow developers ...

Java Environment for Parallel Realtime Development (JEOPARD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

The JEOPARD project will develop a platform independent software development interface for complex multicore systems, including SMP. The interface will be based on existing technologies including Java, the Real-Time Specification for Java (JSR 1 and JSR 282) and Safety-Critical Java (JSR 302), which provide a good foundation for the development of complex, safe, realtime systems, but do not yet pr ...

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE III (EGEE-III)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2010,

A globally distributed computing Grid now plays an essential role for large-scale, data intensive science in many fields of research. The concept has been proven viable through the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE project (EGEE and EGEE-II, 2004-2008) and its related projects. EGEE-II is consolidating the operations and middleware of this Grid for use by a wide range of scientific communities, such as ...

Monitoring and Minimisation of Traffic-Induced Noise and Air Pollution Along Major Alpine Transport Routes (ALPNAP)

Start date: Dec 31, 2004, End date: Dec 30, 2007,

A network of regional experts aims at the integrated use of advanced science-based methods to monitor, assess, and predict air pollution and noise and their impact on the environment, quality of life and health along major transport routes. These methods are adapted to the Alpine topography and its specific meteorological phenomena which often amplify the levels of concentration and noise. The pur ...
