The objective with the EMPHASIS project is to develop a system for detecting ongoing illicit production of explosives and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in urban areas. The EMPHASIS system will be composed of networked sensors. Area sensors, strategically positioned, for the monitoring of explosives or precursors to explosives in the vapour phase will be used. Static sensors, positioned in the sewer, for the monitoring of the sewage for indicative traces will also be used. The detectors will be connected in a network and the total gathered data will be fused and evaluated. If a threat substance is detected in elevated amounts, information about the type, location, time and amount will be registered and sent to a command central where further evaluation and appropriate actions can be initiated. The intention is to cover a large area that can be reduced step by step into narrower areas due to a positive alert. The number of sensors used will be increased in the smaller areas. For the final verification stand-off detectors in equipped mobile units will be used to pinpoint the location of the bomb factory. The techniques adopted in the project include electrochemical sensors for the sewage subsystem, resonant Raman and active QCL (Quantum Cascade Laser) transmission spectroscopic techniques for the area monitoring subsystem. Active imaging IR (Infra Red) laser backscattering and stand-off imaging Raman spectroscopic techniques will be used in the final verification. In the EMPHASIS project, threat analysis and search strategy, system network and integration, deployment, legal aspects, cost effectiveness and data fusion and information management will be evaluated. The project also includes a test and subsystem validation part. The consortium consists of eight partners, research institutes, an industry, SMEs and an end user.

REFINEMENT will conduct the first ever comparative and comprehensive overview of links between the financing of mental health care in Europe and the outcomes of mental health services. Mental health is a key priority area for Europe, as evidenced by the publication by the European Commission in June 2008 of its European Pact on Mental Health and Wellbeing. Conducted across nine European Countries (Italy, Austria, UK, Spain, Finland, Norway, France, Estonia and Romania) it will bring together an experienced team of health economists, mental health service researchers, public health specialists and cover, in term of funding models and interfaces with social care services, a representative range of health care systems across Europe. Four core scientific objectives of REFINEMENT will help us attain our overarching goal of determining how variations in the structure and characteristics of mental health financing systems in nine European states: (1) impact on quality of care; (2) impact on the appropriateness of pathways through the services system; (3) help identify best practice and effective innovations and components of the financing system; and (4) allow us to draw conclusions and present recommendations on how best to structure funding systems in different country contexts. The first objective is to map and describe characteristics (including incentives) of financing systems for mental health care. In objective 2 using detailed descriptions of nine mental health systems, we wish to describe the outcomes of mental health services, including quality of care and met/unmet needs. Objective 3 will describe typical pathways through the health and social care system by people with mental health needs. Finally objective 4 is to build a series of health care financing models conducive to the promotion of high quality mental health care associated with better outcomes, drawing on data obtained as part of the three previous objectives.

The PaN-data Europe Strategic Working Group (PaN-data Europe) will support the development of a sustainable data infrastructure for European Neutron and Photon laboratories. The existing PaN-data collaboration aims to develop a common data infrastructure for European Neutron and Photon large facilities. The PaN-data Europe Support Action will support the integration of this work with the creation of a fully integrated pan-European e-infrastructure supporting all scientific communities. PaN-data Europe brings together eleven large multidisciplinary Research Infrastructures. The consortium operates hundreds of instruments used by over 30,000 scientists each year. They support fields as varied as physics, chemistry, biology, material sciences, energy technology, environmental science, medical technology and cultural heritage. Applications are numerous, e.g. crystallography reveals the structures of viruses and proteins important for the development of new drugs; neutron scattering identifies stresses within engineering components such as turbine blades, and tomography can image microscopic details of the 3D-structure of the brain. Industrial applications include pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals and microelectronics. This Support Action focuses on 5 standardisation activities: 1. development of a common data policy framework 2. agreement on protocols for shared user information exchange 3. definition of standards for common scientific data formats 4. strategy for the interoperation of data analysis software enabling the most appropriate software to be used independently of where the data is collected, and 5. integration and cross-linking of research outputs completing the lifecycle of research, linking all information underpinning publications, and supporting the long-term preservation of the research outputs. The Pan-data partners are: STFC (UK), ESRF (Int), ILL (Int), Diamond (UK), PSI (CH), DESY (DE), ELETTRA (IT), Soleil (FR), ALBA (ES), HZB (DE), LLB (FR).

The land surface is a decisive factor regarding the state of the environment and human well-being. To manage it well, regularly obtained up do date information on land use and land cover is needed. Land monitoring provides this information through thematic maps based on the interpretation of areal photography, satellite imagery and further sources. These maps aid spatial planning, nature protection, agricultural policy, forestry, water catchment area management, etc. In spite of its importance, land monitoring in Europe is quite inefficient owing to lacking coordination between the national, sub-national, and European levels. Efforts are duplicated and given opportunities for mutual support are not utilised which means a substantial waste of resources. HELM is a network of authorities concerned with land monitoring across Europe. It will initiate a move to increase the maturity of European land monitoring along five sequential steps: (1) mutual interest in achieving reciprocal knowledge, (2) shared visions and planning for the future, (3) joint activities by taking on tasks collectively, (4) alignment of national systems involving the mutual adaptation of data interpretation methods and of the timing of data gathering, (5) lasting integration and combining data across all administrative levels. HELM envisions a coherent European land monitoring system characterised by high quality data and efficient productivity. This system will combine the broad range of specific expertise and resources of relevant authorities in the member states. Their work will be supported through targeted centrally supplied measures fulfilling common requirements for raw data and data processing. Through a continuous flow of knowledge from the local to the European scale and the other way round, future information needs regarding land use and land cover will be met as an essential basis for managing the land surface in the framework of European sustainable development.

New and innovative technologies are needed more than ever to solve existing and emerging security gaps. Europe is falling behind in addressing these gaps with European inventions. Therefore, we will deliver a study about running a competition in one of these key risk domains to incentivize European innovators to take development risk and conceive disruptive technical solutions, raise awareness of security challenges, create new networks of security stakeholders, create sustainable security businesses and raise safety standards for citizens. The project's concept is based on our proven methodology and systems used in our past 15 international competitions where we awarded over $1.6 million: Design: Together with end-users and government experts, we will deliver minimum 3, maximum 5 scenario packages (containing proposed scenarios, rules and media plans) to the EC, based on currently unsolved mission areas.

Researchers of all disciplines, from Life Sciences and Astronomy to Computational Chemistry, create and use ever-increasing amounts of complex data, and rely more and more on compute-intensive modelling, simulation and analysis. Scientific workflows have become a key paradigm for managing complex tasks and have emerged as a unifying mechanism for handling scientific data. Workflows capture the essence of the scientific process, providing a means to describe it via logical data- or work-flows. Workflows are mapped onto concrete Distributed Computing Infrastructures (DCIs) to perform large-scale experiments. The learning curve for reusing workflows, however, is still steep because workflows typically have their own user interfaces/APIs, description languages, provenance strategies, and enactment engines, which are not standard and do not interoperable. Workflow integration or reuse therefore is currently impractical, thereby inhibiting the growth in uptake and proliferation of workflows in scientific practice. The SHIWA project aims to leverage existing solutions and enable cross-workflow and inter-workflow exploitation of DCIs by applying both coarse- and fine-grained strategies. The coarse-grained approach treats workflow engines as distributed black box systems, where complete sub-workflows are sent to pre-existing enactment engines. The fine-grained approach addresses language interoperability by defining an intermediate representation to be used for translation of workflows across systems (currently selected: ASKALON, Pegasus, P-Grade, MOTEUR, Triana). SHIWA will develop, deploy and operate the SHIWA Simulation Platform to offer users production-level services supporting workflow interoperability following both approaches. A Repository will facilitate publishing and sharing of workflows, and a Portal will enable their actual enactment. Three use cases based on medical imaging applications will serve to drive and evaluate this platform from a user's perspective

The EU dairy industry produces 130 billion litres of raw milk each year for consumption and for application in the production of many food, feed and pharma products. Without doubt the quality and safety of milk and milk products is of paramount importance for safeguarding the health and safety of EU consumers. While pasteurisation has resulted in a dramatic decline in milk-borne disease outbreaks, consumption of raw or inadequately pasteurised milk has been associated with several outbreaks of enteric infections with pathogens such as Listeria and Campylobacter. Furthermore, not all consumers want to drink milk that has been pasteurised, and although a niche product, consumer interest in raw milk is growing as many people believe it contains a higher proportion of beneficial microorganisms and vitamins. Raw milk continues to be consumed directly by large numbers of people in rural areas across the EU. There is a need for a technology that will improve the treatment of milk and provide an alternative to pasteurisation. Research carried out by University College Dublin revealed that the treatment of milk with thermosonication (TS) combined with pulsed electric field (PEF) achieved a degree of inactivation of L. innocua comparable with conventional pasteurisation, while substantially reducing the severity of the time/temperature exposure. This project will build on this research and will build a TS and PEF- based pre-competitive prototype system called SmartMILK. It will be tested and validated in milk production facilities. A key innovativion of the SmartMILK project will centre on optimising the combination of TS and PEF, whereby TS can assist the treatment technology in resulting in a lesser degree of thermal damage in the milk, thereby retaining more of the organoleptically and nutritionally favourable characteristics of the fresh product, while potentially achieving similar or superior shelf life to the conventional treatment.

HEMOLIA is a new generation Anti-Money Laundering (AML) intelligent multi-agent alert and investigation system which in addition to the traditional financial data makes extensive use of modern society’s huge telecom data source, thereby opening up a new dimension of capabilities to all Money Laundering fighters (FIUs, LEAs) and Financial Institutes (Banks, Insurance Companies, etc.). Adding the Telecom Plane to the existing Financial Plane may improve and dramatically change AML doctrines, since another dimension is added to the analysis and investigation processes. HEMOLIA, taking into account existing legal frameworks, will hybridize and correlate the Financial and Telecom Planes in order to create richer and more accurate alerts, intelligence and investigation tools, as well as information sharing, both nationally and internationally. A major part of HEMOLIA will be the legal research and provision of legal guidelines to all ML fighters. To respect privacy rights HEMOLIA will bring a new model of Push Privacy Preserving Alerts where all FIUs and FIs are pushed with alerts that mark a transaction or customer with a money laundering / fraud risk level or risk probability, yet without disclosing any private data. This model may have outstanding impact on AML because it means that FIs will be alerted based on data of all other FIs and based on Telecom service providers at the national and international level, opening up a new era of Money Laundering and financial crime reporting by FIs to FIUs. The HEMOLIA consortium includes 2 end users (Belgium FIU, Ministry of Justice of Poland) and 7 technological partners which bring together European SME’s, industries and academies, ranging from system and database design through to money laundering detection. HEMOLIA will be tested in an environment which simulates live network and systems of 3 different countries which have implemented the HEMOLIA concept and which will cooperate together to share AML information.

This proposal has been elaborated to continue the work undertaken in the former project SEcurity REsearch Ncp network – phase I (SEREN I), therefore the activities foreseen in this proposal are built upon the outcomes reached previously by the network. The Security National Contact Points (NCPs) network is still at an early stage and its members were quite recently appointed as NCPs, as compared to NCPs from other Themes within FP7, therefore an enhanced communication and collaboration among the members are deemed necessary in order to further strengthen the network. Presently, the main tool on which potential participants in security call for proposals rely on for building balanced consortia and for writing high quality proposals is the NCP network being, and for that reason it is essential to reinforce the network’s capability to cope with issues that might arise, especially with those which have a security specific character. To tackle and overcome the difficulties of building international partnerships and in order to foster the participation in the security research field, the network will organize joint brokerage events and awareness campaigns with focus on promoting good project ideas and on identifying ways and means for the end-user involvement. To support these activities, special tools will be developed and implemented as security tailored partner search system and matchmaking tool for competencies. Security research new aspects (policies, new programmes, conferences and workshops) will be monitored and analyzed to provide synthesized information to stakeholders at all levels (from NCPs level to clients level). Having in mind that security in general is a very dynamic field, that security research has been recently included in the Framework Programme and because it presents several particularities as compared to other themes it is important that the Security NCPs project foresees activities focused on this particularities and specific eleme

In this project we will develop multiscale modelling technology supported by comprehensive experimental characterization techniques to study the degradation and reliability of next generation Complimentary-Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) devices. Building upon fundamental analysis of the structure and electronic properties of relevant materials and interfaces at the quantum mechanical level, we will construct mesoscale models to account for defect generation and impact on CMOS transistor and circuit performance and yield. The models will provide detailed understanding of the common reliability issues and degradation routes, and will be verified by cutting edge experimental characterization. Strong links with industry insures that the project will make a step change in the process of next generation device modelling and design. The project will provide technologists, device engineers and designers in the nano CMOS industry with tools, reference databases and examples of how to produce next generation devices that are economical, efficient, and meet performance, reliability and degradation standards.
