SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

All joint undertakings have 3 general objectives on strengthening and integrating the scientific, innovation and technological capacities and facilitating collaborative links, securing sustainability-driven global leadership and resilience of Union value chains in key technologies and industries and on developing and accelerating the uptake of innovative solutions throughout the Union addressing climate, environmental, health, digital and other global challenges.

The same document also lists 5 specific objectives for the Joint Undertakings: enhance the critical mass and scientific and technological capabilities and competences, accelerate the green and digital transitions, enhance the research and innovation capabilities and performance of existing and new European innovation ecosystem and economic value chains, including in start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), accelerate the deployment, uptake and diffusion of innovative solutions, technologies, services and skills and deliver environmental, energy, resource-saving, societal, circularity and productivity improvements in new products, technologies, applications and services by exploiting Union capabilities and resources.

Expected Impact 

  • Suitability and quality of the measures to maximise expected outcomes and impacts, as set out in the dissemination and exploitation plan, including communication activities.
  • Customizable high-end RISC-V based multi-processor core (including dedicated hardware & supporting software IP, enhanced or new libraries of HW peripherals and software), to be applied for high-end computing or domain-specific applications, including features as a.o. dependability, reliability and security.
  • Development of new concepts, metrics and standards to assess and support reduced environmental footprint and sustainability of ECS products. 
  • Industrial manufacturing capability for current and next generation silicon photonic integrated circuits (PICs).
