Enabling Innovation in the Internet Architecture through Flexible Flow-Processing Extensions (CHANGE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

The CHANGE project addresses a central problem of today's Internet: its size and scope make innovation through the introduction of new core network technologies very difficult. The Internet suffers from "ossification". Even minor changes only happen through the accretion of point solutions that embed knowledge in the network, optimizing today's applications at the expense of tomorrow's.The goal of ...

Transport Fire Safety Engineering in the European Union (TRANSFEU)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

There is an urgent need to have a confident toxicity measurement methodology that contributes to the existing level of surface transport fire safety, which is the most difficult issue to assess in case of fire. The lack of confidence in the robustness of the existing product toxicity classification forbids its acceptance as a standard which prevent the European industry from common safety rules an ...

European Network for Cell Imaging and Tracking Expertise (ENCITE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

"Cell therapy can be defined as the transplantation of living cells for the treatment of medical disorders. Three different principles underlie the increasing interest in cell therapy. 1. Transplanted cells used as an “active drug” 2. Transplanted cells used to replace damaged and degenerated tissue. 3. Cells used as a drug delivery vehicle. Promising results have been obtained in pre-clinical and ...
