Effectsplus 1st kick off technical cluster meeting is scheduled for March 29^th & 30^th 2011, location Brussels (Details and registration coming soon on  http://www.effectsplus.eu/ )

The main objectives of this Effectsplus kick off cluster meeting is as follows

1. Official cluster kick off meetings (Cluster group activities to discuss common topical areas, issues and action items for future cluster meetings).
2. Dedicated trust and security research roadmap sessions, with the output of these sessions in turn contributing as input to the FIA Research Roadmap for Framework 8

Effectsplus is also organising a broader call for inputs for the FIA Research Roadmap across all the Future Internet research areas for an open workshop that is scheduled for March 31^st (http://www.effectsplus.eu/fia-research-roadmapping-open-workshop/). Contributions from Trust and security projects to this FIA research roadmap will take place during the official Effectsplus Cluster meeting on March 29^th & 30^th.  Hence participants of the Effectsplus cluster meeting on March 29^th and 30^th are not expected to attend the FIA Research Roadmap session on March 31^st.

Further details on contributions to the Roadmapping aspect of Effectsplus cluster meetings on March 29^th & 30^th will follow soon.

For Your Information: Details of  the official Call for contributions to the  FIA Research roadmap  Open workshop on March 31^st is as follows.

The EU Coordination Action Effectsplus and the Future Internet Assembly (FIA) are developing a roadmap for research into all aspects of the Future Internet. As part of this effort they are organising an Open Day / workshop on 31st March 2011. The workshop will also include the  opportunity to review contributions received to date as well as to hear new contributions to be presented at the workshop.

Date: Thursday 31st March, 10.00 AM to 4.00pm

Location: European Commission, Beaulieu 25,  room 0/S1 , Brussels

Register for this event via the following link: http://fiaresearchroadmapping.eventbrite.com/

Directions: see link http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/information_society/practical/find_us/index_en.htm

(Note : please ensure you bring identification with you to access the event location)

Researchers working in the field of Future Internet are invited to contribute short position papers, to be presented at the workshop, with the intention that they will shape the content and impact of the roadmap.

The roadmap will be written at a sufficiently high level so as to shape the themes of Framework Programme 8, without favouring particular methods or tools. The roadmap targets research that will be carried out over the duration of Framework 8, 2014 to 2020 and beyond. The contributions we solicit will present a good future vision, recognition of major changes in the use and application of technology, recognition of significant obstacles and challenges, and potential solutions.

The contributions are expected to not exceed three (3) A4 pages, and will address, in order, the following four issues/questions [These are standard headings which must be used]:

What changes will occur? Describe the broader social and other changes that research into the future internet will need to take into account here. Indicate the timescale of these changes

Which positive outcomes can be brought about by the use of technology? Discuss how you imagine the world will be as a result of the changes and advances that will have occurred; what impact will we be able to have? When will we have that impact?

Discuss the difficult problems (broader, technical, …) that have to be addressed satisfactorily in order to handle the changes and realise the vision

What’s the answer? which new approaches/technologies/… will likely be most useful in addressing the gaps and challenges? What research needs will emerge as we try to build such solutions? What are the steps to developing the solutions?

These contributions will be synthesised and published as part of the research roadmap. Contributors will present their ideas and discuss them at the Open Day in Brussels.

Written contributions to the roadmap should be send your written contributions by 20th March 2011 in Microsoft Word .doc format to Nick Papanikolaou (HP Labs) – nick.papanikolaou@hp.com .

Contributions should include the contributors name, institution and email address, and include four sections under the following headings

Title of Contribution & Research Area

1. 1. Changes
2. 2. Vision
3. 3. Challenges
4. 4. Solutions

This event has passed.

Target Audience : Trust and Security(T&S) EU research project representatives, external T&S initiative representatives, EC Unit F5 representatives, other parties with interest in Trust and Security clustering activities.

Description: The aim of this event is to provide detailed information on

• The actual technical clusters effectsplus will set up and run in 2011.  (1^st technical cluster meeting planned for 29th/30^th March 2011, Brussels)
• Details on T&S EU research projects involvement in such clusters. (expected workings and outputs of cluster activities)
• Benefits for EU research T&S projects participation in effectsplus clustering activities.
• Contribution towards Trust and Security roadmapping activities towards FP8 and FISA (Future Internet Support Action) activities.

The event will be split into three main parts.

1. The morning session will consist of  Guest Speaker from The European Commission  Unit F5 followed by specific informative effectsplus presentations.
2. The next part will involve mini cluster breakout sessions, The aim of these sessions is for projects to become familiar with other participating projects within their cluster, identify participants, open discussion on proposed workings of the cluster (Terms of reference), next steps before official 1 st technical cluster meeting in March.
3. The final session will have 2 further effectsplus specific presentations followed by a session dedicated to summary reports from the earlier cluster breakout session. This will help share the plans of each cluster groups to the larger audience.
