Call for Interest to Participate in European ICT Project
07 November 2010
UEAPME, the European association representing national business representatives, representing also GRTU, is looking for SME associations to participate in a European ICT project, BRITE, aiming at creating "the browser for the Internet of things".
In computing, the "Internet of things" refers to the networked interconnection of everyday objects, ranging from very small such as cell phones, keys' batteries etc. up to several meters big like cars buses and buildings. Most of these objects are not interconnected to each other and even fewer are connected to the internet infrastructure. In the "Internet of things", the internet is used as the underlying facility providing the communication channel.
The project will extend the current browser interface to the internet to include finding and presenting information from "things" across infrastructures, communication technologies and addressing schemes, or multiple descriptors of the "things". It will also allow the discovery and composition of services related to the connected objects, by processing, combining and presenting the results emanating from the multiple data streams related to the object(s).
The planned duration of the project is 30 months and the total budget would amount to 3 million Euros.
You are kindly invited to send your expressions of interest by the 13th of December to Timea Czirner:

For the project abstract kindly contact Abigail Mamo at GRTU.
