1. Cross-media Content (call 2):novel forms of digital contentcreativity & interactivity, user experience & control, story-telling & non-linear narratives, cross-platform delivery …
2. Content & Knowledge (call 4):intelligent, dynamic contentaccess & management (meta data generation / extraction, semantic annotation & indexing, contextual retrieval…), automated workflows, aggregation & personalisation, reuse ...
3. Knowledge (calls 1 & 4):intersection of Web, MM and KR&R (SemWeb+)networked information & communities, automation of knowledge lifecycle, web / multimedia “documents”, from static to dynamic information, interaction & evolving processes

Towards FP7Towards FP7
• new framework programme expected to startlate 2006 / early 2007
• main proposals (FP, SPs, RfP) forwarded to Council & Parliament
• significant budget increase … depending on EU financial perspectives after 2006
• traditional as well as new SPs (eg Space)
• multinational collaborative research (Cooperation SP) as well as grants for individual teams (Ideas SP)
• IST rebranded now simply ICT, ~2 B€/year?
• still the largest thematic component within FP
• centred around 4 components:
– Core Technologies (incl. Knowledge)
– Integration of Technologies (eg home environments)
– Applications Research (incl. Content)
– Future and Emerging Technologies
See www.cordis.lu/fp7/
ICT research within FP7ICT research within FP7
Knowledge & Content in FP7Knowledge & Content in FP7
• Knowledge, cognitive and learning systems: methods and techniques to acquire and interpret, represent and personalise, navigate and retrieve, share and deliver knowledge, recognizing the semantic relationships in content for use by humans and machines
• ICT for content, creativity and personal development: novel forms of interactive, non-linear and self-adaptive content; creativity and enriched user experience; cross-media content customisation and delivery; combining all-digital content production and management with emerging semantic technologies; user-oriented use, access to and creation of content
• Home environments: … new services and new forms of interactive digital content and services; access to information and management of knowledge
ICT workprogrammeICT workprogramme
• WP describes (high-level) objectives & priorities in 2007-08, sets the direction for the first series of EU projects (1,5-2 Beuro?)
• time-to-WP: – phase 1 (consultations) Feb-Apr– phase 2 (consolidation) Apr-May– phase 3 (workprogramme) Jun-Jul– phase 4 (refine focus & instruments) Jul-Sept– phase 5 (spread the word) Oct-Dec => IST conference, Nov
• elicit input from ALL relevant circles:– research themes:
• continuity vs. new directions• emerging challenges vs. gaps & failures in FP6• long term research vs. development & validation• relationships vis-a-vis adjacent topical areas
– stakeholders: S&T communities, ICT and Media industry, user industries
– instruments: collaborative platforms, shared infrastructures …
ProcessProcess
• roundtables & working visits:– ISWC’05: Semantic Web, progress & prospects
– EWIMT’05: Interface between Multimedia & Knowledge R&D
– selected research centres …
• populate the research agenda– Content (26-27 Jan) + Knowledge (2-3 Feb)
• build “model”, fill gaps, refine S&T contentbuild “model”, fill gaps, refine S&T content– Knowledge (2-3 Mar) + Content (8-9 Mar)
• consolidate results & discuss working drafts – 5[-6] Apr (tbc)
• and then a long series of revisions …– EC internal then also national reps & experts
We need your input, now!We need your input, now!
• project deliverables relating to research roadmap, technology foresight, market trends, etc.
• outcome of project events - workshops, seminars … addressing ‘hard’ or emerging research themes
• ad-hoc contributions (by email):
– for each candidate research track:
• state problem & result / advances (granularity: ~ 20-50 Meuro)
• expected impact (scientific, technological, economic)
• time-to-maturity & application space
• why public intervention, why at EU level
• timeframe: research starting in 2008 and delivering ‘exploitable’ results 4-5 years later, so … think 2012 and beyond
Possible changes in emphasisPossible changes in emphasis
• from document to human centric approach: documents, interaction, ambient information…
• from focus on automation to balanced mix of people, data & tools:- cater for human & organisational factors- test technology against real(istic) data volumes
• integrate Web 2.0, address social networks, participative & consumer-produced content …
• keep pushing towards non-textual content analysis, place more emphasis on multi-modal analysis & interpretation
• preserve data integration as well as application / process related aspects
• encourage integration & consolidation: architectures & middleware
• early experimentation & feedback; more focused attack on selected user profiles and/or application tasks/domains
• … and more!
Linking research toLinking research towider contextwider context
• reach out: awareness & dissemination beyond specialist research circles
• first use: early access to technology, trials & use cases
• infrastructure: public outcomes, sharing pre-competitive results …
• and in general any other measure that can
• add value to research
• ease and speed up its uptake

your input (1 page per topic):
inquiries:
This meetingThis meeting• no more projects till Jan 2008
• hence up to you (!) to demonstrate good use of public monies
• and ... adequate return on investment
• powerful lobbies at work: must show results & broaden “our” constituency
• a huge challenge ahead:
– community building, “branding” & reach-out
• build new partnerships across disciplines
• stimulate dialogue with industry (IT, telcos, media)
• get users on board
• be known, be credible; exploit synergies, avoid duplication
• hence … a coherent and effective Dissemination & Awareness campaign
RemindersReminders• main target groups:
– your peers
– actual or prospective sponsors & buyers (your management, government & research agencies, high-end users, IT & telcos)
– politicians & journalists
• different means for different purposes & target groups:– print & electronic publications (S&T as well as PR)
– conferences & exhibitions (S&T as well industrial/professional)
– scientific papers & topical seminars (involving outsiders)
– project’s open days (prospective sponsors & buyers)
– training & knowledge-spreading (involving outsiders) …
• collaborative multi-party projects, hence “co-authoring”
• acknowledge EU support (DG INFSO / IST Pgme)
• reconcile tension between own organisation, consortium & “field” at large (which is OUR concern)
