COMEX 1 - Exploitation of ESPRIT Results - Technical Days

In the framework of COMEX 1 ARCHIMEDIA S.A. offers services to the European Commission. The following tasks have been performed: - Preparation of a guide of ESPRIT projects to be distributed through the relay centers network. - Coordination of the preparation of technical-promotional fiches on ESPRIT results that will be distributed through the relay centers network to all European countries. - Organisation of technical days in Greece in the exploitation of the results of specific ESPRIT projects.

DISCOMI - OMI Technology Disseminations

The overall objective of the DISCOMI project is to improve the visibility of OMI (Open Microprocessor Initiative) and of its commercially available results in particular to the widest possible audience of industrial SMEs and academia, through the facilitation and co-ordination of various dissemination activities.

EDI-Loc - Investigation of the potential and feasibility of EDI technology for Local Administration

The study aims in investigating the potential and feasibility of using EDI technology for the coordination of local administrations at regional and national level in Greece. This is to be seen in the general framework of development of EDI for Public Administration in Europe in view of the adoption of the IDA (Interchange of Data between Administrations) action. A generalized overview of the Greek Legislation issues affecting the use of EDI for Local Administration activities will be conducted in the study. The study also concentrates on the problem of the availability of standard EDI messages for Local Administration activities. The adequacy of current EDIFACT standards has been investigated and a general proposal about the nature of standard messages for Local Administration has been formulated.

HPCN-GR - Development of HPCN applications in Greece

A feasibility study to access the situation in Greece related to High Performance Computing and Networking and to propose specific actions aiming at promoting the introduction of HPCN applications to the local SMEs and also help the SMEs to benefit from Community actions foreseen in the new RTD Framework.

INNO - An INspection Technology Transfer NOde

Technology Transfer Nodes (TTN) forms an important component of the ESPRIT 4th Framework Programme HPCN PST activities. TTNs are networked to facilitate technology transfer, exchange of experience and expertise, and dissemination of results between them. They form a supporting superstructure for a group of regionally based industry-led PST actions. INNO is a Greek TTN which main focus is on the promotion of HPCN applications in industry and SMEs. The objectives of the node are: (1) to demonstrate the feasibility of HPCN applications in industry; (2) to capture user requirements; (3) to disseminate results and promote best practice; (4) to provide high level technical support, training and consulting to the users.

NOW - Not Only Wildfires

NOW is a Technology transfer and support activity within the Esprit Programme, with the following objectives: 1) Decision Support Technology Cluster Development Provide a cluster of technologies produced by the Esprit programme for decision support in environmental and other emergencies (EDSS ='environmental DSS' and 'DSS for emergency management'). The technical content of the projects and their spin-offs, as well as their engineering and commercialisation status will be considered. 2) Product/Service Client Specifications The technology cluster will be a tool to identify generic answers for a range of common requirements in application domains of paramount importance for Mediterranean and Central European countries, such as DSS for the prevention of the devastating effects of fire and other natural emergencies. 3) Technology Transfer Implementation Transferring results of existing RTD projects to national and regional Public Administrations. 4 case studies will be developed with the involvement of public institutions and SMEs at regional level; in each region an advanced technology transfer centre (TTC) will push the utilization of Esprit-derived EDSS-related technologies.

FUSE-TTN - A Technology Transfer Node for FUSE (First Users Action)
