Introduction

• Initiated in late 2003 by Commissioner Liikanen -several working-groups started work on a broad range of issues

• In the mobile and wireless context of the 7th Framework Program (FP7), a Mobile and Wireless Communications Technology Platform eMobility has been established on March 18, 2005 in the Public Launch in Brussels– The first important milestone of the eMobility Platform

in FP7 is the definition of a Strategic Research Agenda – This Research Agenda is being developed based on

the draft workplan in the June 2004 report of the working groups (available on the IST web site)

Technology Platform

eMobility Time Plan

2004 2007 2013January to June 2004: Development of general framework

During FP7:

Operational phase with• complementary and• cooperating research

activitieslaunched under theumbrella of the eMobilityPlatform

Development of :

• The Strategic Research Agenda

• Relationship with other bodies towards the European Research Area

• The eMobility Platform as an “instrument” for project implementation in FP7

• Introduction







Vision, Rationale, Mission

• Support the renewed Lisbon Strategy for a competitive, knowledge-based society

• Drive future technology development in mobile and wireless communications that serves Europe's citizens and the European economy

• Confirm the key role of scientific research and technological development for economic growth

• Enhance cooperation between industry players, the research community and public authorities

• Provide input for the future European R&D Framework Programs

The Shared Vision

• Mid- to long-term vision to maximise the benefit of mobile and wireless communications, thus enabling economic and social advances in the EU

• Formulation of an action plan and time-table for the key developments

• Evolution of a consistent policy, spectrum and regulatory framework

Key Objectives

Technology leadership for competitiveness• Support for business & government processes

improves competitiveness and European economy• Services hide complexity from the user with

interoperability between access systems• Multi-layered mobility – users move & change

devices, sub-networks in trains & cars move, software moves

• Peer-to-peer communities emerge to empower people to collaborate

• Opportunities for social applications expanded through always-with-you qualities reducing isolation

The eMobility Vision for 2015

• Achieve full mobile access to applications for European citizens, building on European strength in wireless communication

• Develop the technology to provide optimal applications relying on the most promising technologies and network resources

• Focus European R&D resources to exploit the coming business opportunities in mobile and wireless to the benefit of the European economy, and ensuring eInclusion especially for new member states

Mission Statement

• Ensuring leadership in mobility in all communications to be established and maintained in Europe

• Mobile & wireless have an economic impact greater than the INTERNET

• Public investments in other regions (Asia, North America)

• Job creation – from 4 Million jobs now to 10 Million in 2010

• Europe should ride the next wave of wireless innovation

• Mobile services account for about 3% of European GDP

• Scope of research – mobile and wireless communications ranging from wide-area systems to short-range communications in all its facets

The Value Chain from Research to Global Product

• Competing in a changing worldLeadership requires concerted efforts of all players incl. regulators and governments to provide the environment needed for growth

• Consensus buildingComplexity and need for global standards, requires cooperation beginning with research

• Europe’s industry is fully committed10-20% of turn-over are committed to R & D, where the collaborative R&D comprises less than 1%

Meeting the Challenge


• Introduction







Structure, Organisation & Management

• The drawing up of a Strategic Research Agenda

• The achievement of the necessary critical mass for research and innovation

• The mobilisation of substantial public and private funding

• Actual projects in Framework Programme 7 will be carried out in projects under the umbrella of the eMobility Platform

• Technology Platforms should be industry led

Rationale• Service creation technology, key to boosting the service

market in Europe.• How personal and intelligent can a service be?• What is the design process?

“Make service creation and delivery as easy as constructing and delivering Web pages”

Mobile applications and services are no longer separate“add-ons”, but integral parts of everyday life! This

includes also personal service creation!
