Dear Cluster Members,

 

As you are probably aware the European Commission will soon fund several new Research projects and Support actions which will exclusively deal with the Internet of Things and bring further potential to our Cluster.

 

As we said last year, 2009 has been a year of transition – harvesting the fruits from the research on more RFID-related topics and preparing the future towards IOT by preparing a Strategic Research Agenda and fostering the exchange and collaboration. Excellent results from this period are the SRA and the Cluster book 2009 which will soon be published – a testimony of the work been done and an invitation to go deeper into the subject at the same time.

 

As a consequence of the activities ahead and of a stronger international perspective, we have decided to change the Cluster’s name into

IOT European Research Cluster

European Research Cluster on the Internet of Things

 

A second change will be that Patrick Guillemin who was heading the Cluster for a longer period, will from now on concentrate on coordinating standardization issues for the Cluster.

Ovidiu Vermesan whom many of you know already from the work on the Strategic research agenda has accepted to become the new Cluster co-ordinator and, in order to ensure a smooth transition will be supported by Patrick Guillemin.

 

Once the new projects are settled, I propose having shortly a meeting and to define in common our new activities. We will soon make you a proposal for a next Cluster get-together which shall take place in the first half of 2010.

Best regards,

Peter

All views will be incorporated in a new CERP-IoT SRA position paper in order to follow & prepare SRA Fall 2010 version and disseminate all feedbacks

 

CASAGRAS Final Report on IoT is now available at http://www.rfidglobal.eu/userfiles/documents/FinalReport.pdf

 

Objectives

 

The IOT European Research Cluster is bringing EU-funded projects together to define and promote a common vision of the Internet of Things

 

The main objectives of the Cluster are:

• Facilitate networking of different RFID and IoT projects in Europe
• Coordinate research activities in IoT including RFID
• Leverage expertise, talents, and resources and maximize impact
• Establish synergies between projects

 

RFID has the potential to enhance Europe's competitiveness and is an important driver for the development of an information based economy and society. A wide range of research and application projects in Europe have been set up in different application fields. Communication between these projects is an essential requirement for a competitive industry and for a secure, safe and privacy-preserving deployment of RFID in Europe. To promote this exchange of information the "Cluster of European RFID Projects" has been founded in January 2007. The objectives of the cluster are:

 

 

 

CERP-IoT Focus areas in 2009

The CERP-IoT will focus on the following tasks in 2009:

• Publication of an updated strategic research roadmap (SRA)
• Publication of CERP-IoT Cluster book (planned for fall 09)
• Sound contribution in the next high level events and conferences
• Identification of concrete areas of cooperation
• Reinforcement of network synergies with the EU RFID Thematic Network “RACE networkRFID”, CASAGRAS and GRIFS

Past CERP Working Paper

At the international conference “RFID: Towards the Internet of Things” in June 2007, CERP presented a common Working Paper on RFID Research Needs.

In 2008, CERP has submitted the  detailed Working Paper on future RFID Research Needs  to the EC.
