Preliminary analysis from the last Call
• Highlights
– Resource Management, Smart Systems integration,
Semantic reconciliation, Software as a Service, Innovation
clouds and social web concepts are central to the evolution
of our domain
• Lowlights
– The I.S.U concept is less apparent compared to Call 1
– Are new b.m. paving the way for tomorrow business
innovation?
– Towards a scientific foundation of our research?
– Where is EI positioned w.r.t The internet of the Future?

6.
FInES Cluster Meeting – 7th of October 2010
FInES Cluster activities
• Internally
– Open meetings of all Project Coordinators + stakeholders convened 3 or 4
times per year
– Development of technology-oriented R&D topics and Research Road
mapping
– Task Force activities supporting different goals > ecosystem approach
• Externally
– By projects, CSAs (ENSEMBLE, UNITE, AVY)
– With related initiatives and interest groups representing the broader FInES
community (inside and outside the Commission)
• Results
– Publications
– Impact on the policy and research agendas
– Impact on projects (directions, progress, collaboration, etc.)
– Impact on the Future Internet
– Impact on European enterprises (users, SMEs, virtual enterprises…)
• Review of the cluster results
– Periodically (annually?) – which indicators?

7.
FInES Cluster Meeting – 7th of October 2010
FInES Task Forces
• What are they?
– Each Task Force in the Cluster = an
independent ecosystem, a dynamic complex
of interacting parties.
– Differ in nature, size, impact, results,
duration, etc.
– Need recognition, support and (digital?)
services to function as an effective
ecosystem (publications, collaborative tools,
web sites, EC, ENSEMBLE, FInES
community, etc.)

Framework programme and MAFF (what is this?)
Annual EU budgets are based on the Multi Annual Financial Framework (MAFF) agreed between the European
Parliament, Council and Commission in an interinstitutional agreement.
The financial framework sets the maximum amount of commitment appropriations in the EU budget each year for broad
policy areas ("headings") and fixes an overall annual ceiling on payment and commitment appropriations.

2 ways of acting
• Supporting the Commission in its preparatory work
– Revision and dissemination of the FInES Position Paper +
Research Roadmap
• Sharing with other stakeholders
– ISTAG : Action?
– ETP (where relevant) Action: S. De Panfilis – privileged partner
– FIA’s Research Roadmap. Joined group. Our Roadmap will be a
starting point - Action: Delegation through M.Missikof.
– FoF’s AIAG and ActionPlant (CSA supporting)- Action: Link
established with Tecnalia (Industrial Systems Unit) dealing with
the task ‘roadmap preparation for ICT supported Manufacturing
beyond 2013.’ > necessity to concretize
– Other stakeholders: are we missing important ones?

16.
Concretely speaking
• Work Plan to be completed
• ENSEMBLE CSA providing insight and support
• Task Forces plans
• EC (all services)
• Identify potential short- and long-term Results
• Gap analysis for key actions
