Projects & Initiatives
_________
COMMIT
The goal of the COMMIT programme is to find solutions to societal problems and to exploit socio-economic opportunities through the use of ICT technology.
_________
ENOFES
The ENOFES project focuses on designing energy-aware embedded control (EAEC) systems for industrial production.
_________
Go Green
The Go-Green project seeks to develop an intelligent energy-aware system which adapts dynamically to end-user’s behavior and energy-use preferences.
_______
HeerlenLive
The project has developed a free wifi network,urban screen network, walk-in studio, content distribution platform and other services for Heerlen citizens based on a broadband network.
_______
NDIX
NDIX an open platform which seeks to facilitate competition, innovation and the development of new digital services by offering unlimited and secure connectivity between content suppliers and end-users.
_________
RASTER
The Raster project seeks to develop a methodology for the risk assessment of large-scale telecommunication services.
_________
Reliable Mobility Systems
This project aims to improve Holland’s traffic, transport and logistical systems through developing a robust Smart infrastructure which can mitigate the effects of local disruptions and enable synergies between road traffic and high-tech public transport.
_________
SEASTAR
The SEASTAR project seeks to address the increasing need for underwater communication systems with higher data rates over considerably longer distances.
_________
Smart City
The Smart City project aims to create a dynamic ecosystem in which administrators, companies, citizens and research institutions jointly produce comprehensive, innovative and impactful services.
_________
SOWICI
The SOWICI project aims to develop a novel, energy-efficient, in-building optical/wireless communication network. This network will feature intelligent routing and transmission functionalities for wireless services between sensors and actuators and fixed and mobile wireless broadband communication devices.
_________
WALNUT
The WALNUT project (Wireless Ad-hoc Links using robust Noise-based Ultra-wide-band Transmission) intends to focus on providing solutions to the communication robustness problem while maintaining or even reducing power consumption.
_________
Wireless and Sensor Systems
The Wireless and Sensor Systems (WiSe) group pursues research covering all aspects of wireless and sensor networks from analog/digital integrated circuit design via wireless networks and computer architecture to distributed systems.
