22 Company Profile Page 8 Russia All-Russia Research-and-Development Institute for the Problems of Computing Equipment and Information Technology Offer TO_RU_28368 Personal Cryptographic Data Security Tool (PCDST) Russian scientific research institute from Moscow has developed a personal cryptographic data security tool (PCDST) that provides encryption, digital signature generation and verification, passwords and PKI certificates storage and allows for secure transfer of data via the Internet, including mail and ICQ messages. Partners for further development and promotion of the product are sought. Detailed description: Innovative aspects / advantages: The developed tool is a USB device (i.e. it is absolutely impossible to plug it in any incorrect way), which in fact is a specialized computer of flash memory size. This computer is equipped with its own processor running cryptographic algorithms absolutely independently, i.e. without using the processor of the computer in the USB port of which it is plugged in. It also features everything a regular computer has - memory, input/output ports, etc. Thus, cryptographic data security means encryption and electronic digital signature (EDS), in the first place. Advanced users know it is possible to encrypt a file or sign it electronically without any additional devices - just by using the software to be installed on the computer. Nevertheless, the necessity to eliminate the "bottlenecks" remains. That is, how and where the data is transformed. The first bottleneck is how the key (or key pair) is generated and where it is stored. Generating keys in the computer is dangerous because it is an unreliable medium, which enables intruders, for example, to make the user use a pre-stored key or to generate a key that can be easily stolen. The developed device generates keys independently: it is equipped with a physical random number generator. Storing the key in computer memory is dangerous because there are different ways of getting it or restoring it from memory. Moreover, users may need not only to use the keys on their own computer but also save them to different carriers, which is even more dangerous! When using the developed device, the keys are always accessible to the owner and can never be used by anyone else. The second bottleneck is whether transformation has been carried out in a correct way. Intruders can modify the computer software in such a way that, instead of encrypting, it will perform some other operations, which will not protect but destroy the data. Moreover, even provided the transformation is carried out in a correct way, nothing can prevent the intruder from snatching the key. The developed device protects the data without using the computer software: it does not need to use it because it is a computer in itself. At the same time, it is impossible to modify the software of the device in any way. Therefore, the device is a reliable medium, and the transformation it carries out can be relied on. For all that, the developed tool is a small device, which is easy to use. Prior to using it, it is necessary to take only several simple steps to get it ready to work (it is much easier than to adjust the navigator in a car). Software from the mini disk is installed according to a standard procedure. After the initiation of the device (entering the PIN code, etc.), it is ready to work. Standalone mobile personal cryptographic data security tool. Main advantages: High reliability.

We automate all kind of processes: from production to expedition. We are specialists on Automated Guided Vehicles providing a wide range of them according to the customer needs. Our vehicles have been successfully installed in several food companies, improving its productivity. Our work makes other_s more productive. Detailed description: Our technology is focused on automation. We automate all kind of vehicles, providing them with the most advanced technology. We set them the adequate guiding system such as laser, magnetic or optical. Although all of them are valid, depending on the customer requirements only one will be ideal. A very important implement to the vehicles are the security systems which will vary with the AGV usage. Bumpers, lasers, photocells& are some of the devices that can be added to the vehicle to guarantee safety for the people interacting with the machines. Batteries and recharging systems can be adapted to the needs. And of course the type of industrial machine, we look for the most adequate among the offer in the market according to the weight of the load and the high to reach and if not founded, we design and build it. We have worked on the development of new guiding systems, such as shapes or a new optical technology which led as to a new product: SIGVIA. Thanks to this optical technology, we can not only guide an AGV, we can also control and manage floats of vehicles, achieving total traceability of processes and products. On the food industry we have developed several systems such as a specific one for industrial fridges. Using AGVs to carry out all the transport duties into the fridges, companies can improve the labor conditions and overall productivity. Machines do not have to stop because of the cold what implies higher production and energy saves, as the fridges do not have to get opened loosening part of the temperature with the extra energy expense to recover it. We have developed automatic transport systems for the most important food companies, such as Campofrio, where we are installing a three AGV system to link the final production line with roll film packaging line. We can implement any of these systems with solutions in traceability and stock controls or picking systems, which enhance productivity and that provide useful information for decision making, so important for management. This technology can be used in all kind of sectors. We have already carried out projects on food, metal, pharmaceutical, paper or automotive industries as a sample.

30 a new automatic vehicle able to carry out all the truck loading duties, using a dual guiding system, laser and shapes. But perhaps the most recent product and most innovative is SIGVIA, a system that let us manage industrial vehicle floats in warehouses, using a new datamatrix technology. With this system, the vehicles are located and can follow routes, but not only this; all their movements get registered what provides a total traceability to products and processes. As the computer gets information about position, sense of movements, speed& from all the vehicles in a warehouse, it can manage the traffic of all of them, avoiding accidents and material damages. As a further feature, the system can automatically upgrade the inventory data, as counts with label readers on the forks of the industrial vehicles that can read the labels identifying materials and places. Automatically all this information is sent to the central PC which will use it to upgrade the stock data, keeping a record of the materials movements (Who, from where, to where, How&) Main advantages: The main advantages of our products are that they make productivity raise, and costs decrease what can be translated into an efficiency improvement. Our systems provides control on processes, as all king of reports such as working times or output levels can be issued for management decision making. Not only that, the processes can be followed just in time from whatever part of the world just with an internet connection. Failure drops getting close to cero, accidents disappear and maintenance costs decrease.

49 Company Profile Page 36 Spain CSIC/VATC Technology Offer TO_ES_27910 Automatic method for analysis of non-stationary acoustic signals A group of scientists in the Spain public research council has developed and registered a new method for detection of events in biomedical signals of interest in areas such as phonocardiography and electrocardiography, which can be useful in other areas as well such as seismic analysis and inspection by sound. The method is based on a Rényi entropy measure extracted from a time-frequency representation. Detailed description: The present innovation relates to techniques for digitally capturing and processing biomedical signals of cardiac interest in phonocardiography and electrocardiography. The procedure is based on a time-frequency analysis of the signal of interest followed by extraction of a particular normalisation of the Rényi entropy. This method proposes one specific entropy normalisation, under an instantaneous-wise basis, as the most suitable among others for detection of normal and abnormal patterns and their singularities. This procedure originates a new temporal sequence of data where normal and anomalous events can be better detected and visualised by providing a more discriminative distinction between them. It has direct applications in many biomedical signals of interest such as electrocardiograms (ECG), electroencephalograms (EEG) as a help for detection i.e. precursors of epilepsy, electromyograms, as well as in other areas such as seismic signal analysis and detection of failures in inspection by sound. Innovative aspects / advantages: This technology provides better-localised information about normal and pathological events hence early diagnosis of diseases and phenomena are facilitated this way. This method of biomedical signal analysis offers a new way to analyse cardiac signals. Other advantages include the low computational cost due to the fact it implements a 1D Wigner-Ville distribution what facilitates its implementation in portable devices. Main advantages: A phonocardiogram (PCG) is a graphical representation of the sounds produced by the heart. A normal cardiac cycle has two main sounds, called S1 and S2, which define the start of systole and diastole, respectively. A common problem in the processing of phonocardiographic signals is to detect the main events of the cardiac cycle (S1, S2, murmurs, etc) as a tool for helping the diagnosis of the valvular state of the heart. The delineation of the individual events is a challenging task, because the events are usually very close in time, and their separation may be not clear using threshold techniques. Classical methods based on magnitude thresholding are frequently not able to delineate and separate the events of interest. The new developed method is able to accurately delineate the presence of events, even if two or more events appear joined or even if murmurs have amplitude larger than S1 and S2. Another advantage if that it will allow an objective measure of abnormal events without the presence of an expert.

Management, control and protection solution based on A-GPS technology. Needs a proper device. These solutions send their positions to a Control Centre called KYROS. KYROS receives and stores the devices positions and data for their later treatment. Innovative aspects / advantages: The positioning technology used is different for each product depending on the device used. The most used technology nowadays is based on satellite positioning basically based on GPS (Global Positioning System). As DAT is a company that belongs to a group of companies well-known on the space industry, we consider that we are in a preference position to guarantee the evolution of these solutions in the future. DAT has developed indoor positioning solutions base don Bluetooth and WIFI

53 technology. Solutions developed for outside positioning are based on GPS and Cell-id Main advantages: 1. Competitive Opportunity. There are no companies that offer such services yet. and the ones that do offer these kind of solutions are usually specialized on fleets tracking applications and have deepen into niche solutions such as vehicles information management designed to define the driver_s profile or to analyzed the dysfunctions of the vehicles in order to draw conclusions or to manage critical components, such as wheels, to economize the vehicles activity. 2. Market Opportunity. There is an huge market for the new positioning Technologies, not just for vehicles but also for people and object. 3. Technology Opportunity. Given the expected growth of this activity in the world. There is now an opportunity to acquire the image of leading-edge technology company specializing in this type of activity. Acquiring this position is much more difficult when another company has already known. Current state of development of the technology: Already on the market Intellectual Property Rights: Others (registered design, plant variety right, etc) Web link to present innovative product: Comments about market We can segment the market into various types of environments: applications: 1. Vehicles. We can also distinguish different kinds of clients and needs. a. Fleets. There are different types of fleets. i. Trucks. Of special interest companies that do not require very specific applications and may be interested in managing the drivers and their cargo. It is important to have the possibility of having hands-free devices, navigator, messaging or routing systems in real time. ii. Delivery vans. For these businesses it is important the navigation and the capacity to manage routes on line and at real time. b. General users. i. Security. The most important fact for these clients are to protect their vehicle, not just by detecting theft but also by recovering and tracking the vehicle. ii. Services. There are solutions that offer added services such as hands-free devices for mobile terminals or possibility of navigation. c. Service Companies 2. People The difficulty to penetrate this market with solutions of positioning lies on the fact

54 that people are most of the time indoors and mostly people that live and work in cities. Despite, people identify the need of these localization solutions with outdoors activities, therefore it is very important to have solutions technically capable of combining inside and outside positioning. This has been one of the reasons of the delay on the development of this market that has been, at the same time, linked to the development of the cellular telephony. We can identify several niche markets: a. Elderly and sick people suffering Alzheimer. One of the characteristics of these modern societies is the increased longevity of their populations so that the medium age of old people is much higher that it was in the past. This means people need support to enable them to make a kind of life the more "normal" possible. b. Children and teenagers. Another feature of our society is the growth of major cities with respect to other areas that tend to depopulation. This implies risk of being lost in unfamiliar urban areas or even in dangerous zones. Moreover, the parents of these groups are usually prepare to pay to have their children controlled either in their activities in their indoor and outdoor activities: sports, hiking, etc.. c. People with risk professional activities. There numerous professional activities whose performance involves certain risk of a different nature: police, guards or watchmen, doctors who serve patients in depressed areas or dangerous zones, engineers of public service facilities. 3. Objects Usually the need is closely related to security and implies the detection of improper movement of the object inside or outside buildings. For these applications we use different technologies: for a precise positioning inside buildings we have solutions based on Bluetooth and WIFI technology. There are also solutions that use the cellular webs to detect movements and also to track the object anywhere where there is GSM coverage. Applications: technology but also based on Assisted GPS and on an own developed cellular a. Banks: protection of safes and ATMs, especially those displaced. b. Warehouses: protection and control of goods. c. Health: location for the control and management (and protection) of sanitary sensitive materials.

79 Company Profile Page 68 Spain Gesfor Group EU RTD Result EURTD_ES_28285 IT Service Provider ROMULUS Project Domain Driven Design and Mashup Oriented Development based on Open Source Java Metaframework for Pragmatic, Reliable and Secure Web Development Detailed description: The main concept of ROMULUS is researching on novel methods for increasing productivity and reliability of web software development, in particularly, focused on Java web development. ROMULUS proposal is based on recognising some of the deficiencies of standard Java Enterprise Edition, and proposing a new paradigm for developing web applications taking advantage of new trends in software engineering, such as domain driven design combined with agile development methodologies, and some of the principles from Ruby on Rails. In order to have a serious impact, the project does not start from scratch, it is based on two mature open source projects, Roma and LIFERAY, which will be extended according to this proposal needs and following an open source project development methodology, in order to disseminate and exploit the results of the project. The idea of using these projects is to solve the former problems, with Roma will get to make Java application development easy, integrate frameworks and tools using a metaframework and decreasing the implementation time. While with LIFERAY, we are integrating the leading enterprise open source portal framework, with relevant industrial references. Innovative aspects / advantages: Innovative Technical Approach * Defining an innovative development framework for Java Web development based on a combination of Domain Driven Design (DDD) and the application of Model Driven Architecture (MDA) techniques to a metaframework of Web Applications, derived from previous mature experiences. In addition, the project will provide integration with standard development tool, and semi-automated semantic annotation of relevant software assets, such as bugs and feature requests. * Integrating a _Mash-up oriented development_ in the process. The integration of mashup web services based on REST APIs is showing its agility for increasing productivity and promoting reusability. ROMULUS will go a step further and will research on: o Web Services Mashups, such as Google Maps or Yahoo Pipes. The project will research on how these mashups can be integrated in the software development life cycle. o Data-level mashup for integrating heterogeneous data systems based on semantic technologies. o Portal-level mashups, or _micro-portal-mashups_, a novel extension of current portal frameworks for providing common services to the web components reducing itsdevelopment effort. o Enterprise mashups, modelling of enterprise systems as mashup services to speed up their integration * Integrating soft goals, such as reliability, scalability and security in the

80 domain description, and integrating automatic generation of tests. * Researching on the balance between client and server technologies, and on providing an active role to the end-users for its customisation. Main advantages: I. Increasing productivity of web software development, focused on Java, based on a domain driven design, MDA techniques and a metaframework The proliferation of frameworks and tools, has both increased the required skills of web engineers (for choosing, mastering, integrating and maintaining), and has affected considerably their productivity. A key objective of the project is the usage of domain driven design based on a metaframework that abstracts from the frameworks, together with an MDA approach which generates the application from the metaframework onto the de-facto standard and popular frameworks. The main indicators for this objective are: * 20% reduction in development time of standard web applications, measured through its evaluation in a user group. * 30% reduction of required skills evaluated through an index which is calculated by the combination of number of different libraries and their complexity needed to implement a set of tasks. * Integration of at least three frameworks in the metaframework. * Development of plug-ins for most popular IDEs (netbeans, eclipse) for assisting in the development process. II. Increasing software productivity by using mashup oriented development This objective will research on how web application development can be speeded up thanks to the reuse of existing services and components, as well as the defined methodologies. This objective is spread during the whole project duration. The project will research on several types of mashups: * Mashup web services. The usage of mashup web services such as Google Maps or Yahoo Pipes has proven a successful engineering method for speeding up development. A key objective of this project is to research on how these mashup web services descriptions can be successfully used in the application domain model description, favouring the web service dynamic discovery and composition. The Romulus metaframework will be able to provide, consume and compose REST services in the development and provide a certain number of prepackaged services (maps &). * Data-level mashups. The integration of data from heterogeneous sources is a very time consuming task that will be researched in the project taking advantage of Semantic Technologies. A set of methodologies, best practices and guidelines will be defined in order to help the framework user during complex data mashups processes, while a semantic approach will be used to be able to publish internal data and import external data from the open web using RDF as interchange format, with no programming skills. * Portal mashup services. Although portal server technologies such as portlets offer an environment for the access and personalisation of applications by the user, they are requesting a considerable overload in the development of their components. A key objective of this project is to research on how the definition of portal mashup services can reduce considerably the development time and can increase its reliability. The framework will provide portal services consumed by portal components and scripting languages. * Enterprise mashup services. A key objective of this project is to research on

81 how the definition of an enterprise mashup service can combine information from enterprise search engines, Web services, messaging systems, BI engines and data integration solutions with information from external services. The enterprise services description will be available to be used in the application domain description, in order to be easily and efficiently integrated in the developed application. A set of well identified enterprise services will be available for integration. III. Enhancing the quality of SW development by involving soft goals such as reliability, traceability, security and performance, as well as other quality attributes from the conception of the software In the software development, soft goals such as security or scalability are not usually taken into account from the very beginning in the development process. Soft goals are usually related to quality (non-functional) requirements and do not have a clear-cut criterion for their satisfaction, nor can be allocated to a small subset of elements in the architecture. Romulus will research on security, traceability, reliability and performance soft goals, and their integration in the development process, based on the identification of soft goals-aspects and the usage of annotations against these aspects in the metaframework. Soft-goals annotations based on aspects, used both in the modelling and the implementation phases contribute to automatic code and tests generation. Verifiable indicators for this objective are: * Identification and support for a meaningful number of soft-goals related annotations (3 per soft-goal). * Reduction in the effort used for tests generation. It is expected to reach 50% of reduction in effort in tests generation. In addition, independently developed projects which are however functionally dependant (e.g. required libraries) does not have any form of traceability at development level (i.e. no propagation of issues across the projects). ROMULUS will research on the semantic annotation of external libraries and their integration in the bug tracking and control version system, with so-called semantic powered integration development environment. The introduction of security concerns into the standard development life cycle is still a pendingcoursework in current practice. The application of Domain Driven Design Frameworks can facilitate the semantic annotation of security concerns related with the domain semantic. This approach, together with automatic generation of code respecting security concerns and automatic generation of hacking tests, can drastically reduce the risk of introducing security holes by developers who need easiness and rapidity of development. IV. Balance between client technologies, server technologies and scripting languages Current trends in web application development are changing the balance between client and server technology. A key research objective of this project is to research on the symbiotic combination of client and server technologies and how this can enable more usable application and faster integration or creation of pure client side technologies. Traditionally all interaction and state storage was managed by the server. The browser's function was to act as a very thin client. While this is desired for certain types of applications, it makes development much harder for complex applications with high interactivity and larger needs for application state. With the appearance and generalization of richer client side technologies it is now possible

82 to use the browser as a smarter client, potentially reducing development time while improving the desired characteristics of the developed application. In this new scenario it is of key importance to be able to determine what should be developed in the client side and what should be developed in the server side. Also, the existing server side technologies usually require slower development cycles than the client side which is why the importance of server side scripting technologies to reduce the length of those cycles is increasing. A key research objective of this project is to research on the symbiotic combination of client and server technologies and how this can enable more usable applications and faster integration or creation of pure client side technologies. It will also integrate tools for using server side scripting technologies in existing environments, such as portal applications. The following indicators will be used for verifying this objective: * Integration of 3 server side scripting languages (Groovy, Server-side JavaScript, &) in Liferay Portal Server. * Provision of 1 data based pure client side component for end users apps development and bias for its generation from the metaframework. * Provision of a composition and configuration panel of simple applications, integrated in Liferay Portal Server.

106 Company Profile Page 98 Spain Imatia Innovation Sectors: Public Sector, Travel & Logistics Services, Railways, Telecommunications, IT and BPO Services, Wholesale Distribution, Supply Technology Offer TO_ES_28352 ONTIMIZE - A declarative high-level framework designed for increasing developer productivity when building and implementing interactive enterprise application solutions Ontimize makes this extensive range of rich client components directly available to developers without having to write the code themselves. Many other components addressing application behavior are also supplied including CRUD functionality, firewall tunneling, optimized communications, and many more. More advanced application components such as Reporting, Document Management, GIS, and Workflow are also available for integrating into the finished application if required. In all instances allowance is made for customization as well as the inclusion of the developers own presentation and business logic where the developer feels it necessary. Detailed description: Ontimize has been designed using a multi-tier architecture, which has proven advantages compared to other approaches. In this paradigm, the 3-tier architecture is the most commonly used, where the tiers are generally named the persistence, logic and presentation layers. For Web Applications, the MVC (Model-View-Controller) is the recommended architectural design pattern for interactive applications. The MVC design pattern separates design concerns (data persistence and behavior, presentation, and control), whilst decreasing code duplication, centralizing control, and making the application more easily modifiable. There are two MVC models, depending on the existence of a controller servlet that dispatches requests from the client tier and selects views. The "Model 2" architecture introduces a controller servlet between the browser and the JSP pages or servlet content being delivered. The controller centralizes the logic for dispatching requests to the next view based on the request URL, input parameters, and application state. The Model 2 architecture is recommended for most interactive applications and is used by Ontimize. A further advantage of this approach is the possibility of handling multiple clients with different protocols, security policies, presentation logic, and workflows. Each type of client requires its own controller Innovative aspects / advantages: - Java based. Cross-platform support without rewriting code - XML definition files. Declarative approach: Define what is needed and not how it is done - Component based architecture for simpler extensibility - Rich Internet Client. Desktop and Mobile (PDA/Smartphone) edition - Eclipse plugin for fast development - Basic user authentication. Support for LDAP, Kerberos, SSO,... - Comprehensive set of widgets and controls (tables, trees, links, file attachments, image fields,...) directly available - Standard client logic (validation, search, insert, updates) without coding - Automation of basic CRUD (Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete) operations without coding

107 - Efficient communications, with intelligent bandwidth management - Very fast prototyping by automating high-demand user functionality Main advantages: The rapid iterative prototyping development model has now been widely adopted, allowing both developers and users important feedback from the early stages of a project.

The project main objective is to develop and provide the tools to deal with the difficulties of maintaining and implementing the ISMS (Information Security Management System) of any organization. To support the ISMS processes it is needed to access to different data information sources, available in an organization, in relation with the data information vulnerability at present. We are looking for some different partners (SME, Industry, University&) to build the consortium. Detailed description: An Information Security Management System (ISMS) is a set of policies concerned with information security management. The international standard that provides the protocol to fulfill the policies and security controls is the ISO/IEC but the tools used in the European countries to comply the ISMS process, such as the risk analysis, are not standardized. The key concept of ISMS for an organization is to design, implement and maintain a coherent suite of processes and systems for effectively managing information accessibility, thus ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information assets and minimizing information security risks. The project main objective is to provide the innovative tools to face the difficulties of maintaining and implementing the ISMS. To implement the ISMS process it is needed to access to different data information sources, available in an organization.

119 Company Profile Page 112 Russia Institute for Systems Analysis of RAS (ISA RAS) Technology Offer TO_RU_28112 Technology for high precision semantic search and text analysis Russian scientific research institute from Moscow has developed an innovative technology for high precision search and text analysis and realized an intelligent search engine on its basis. Partners for joint further development and commercial promotion of the product are sought Detailed description: The problem of search precision is usually settled by the means of keywordbased search on the basis of statistical and some kinds of linguistic methods. When we talk about semantic search, we mean _understanding_ a query and finding documents relevant to the query by meaning. To understand the meaning of a query and documents we should use natural language and some semantic model. It allows to semantically match a query with documents. Surely a query on natural language expresses the search request far better than simply a list of keywords does. That is why queries in the form of natural language discourse should be allowed in search engines. From this follows the necessity of semantic analysis of the query text itself and of the required documents. An improvement of search precision is possible if the following tools are employed: _ tools for natural language processing; _ linguistic knowledge base; _ tools for applied semantic analysis, comparison and ranking. Search by keywords often does not satisfy the main requirement of a user, namely the requirement of semantic relevance of the documents found to a query, even in spite of the fact that all keywords of the query are present in the found documents. However a document can be semantically relevant to the query even if it does not contain any key words of this query. Of course any natural language-based search copes with the task of increasing search engine work relevance far better than search by keywords only. That is why queries in the form of natural language discourse should be allowed. This implies the necessity of semantic analysis of the query text itself and of the required documents is needed. When forming a discourse, syntax above all deals with meaningful units bearing not only their individual lexical meaning, but also generalized categorial meaning in constructions of various complexity. These units are called syntaxemes (that is, minimal indivisible semantic-syntactic structures of language). Syntaxemes are detected according to: a) categorial semantics of the word; b) its morphological form; c) its function in the sentence. Categorial semantics is a generalized meaning characterizing words that belong to the same categorial class (for instance, nouns may belong to the classes of people, things, attributes for nouns). The main idea of semantic search is semantic processing of user query texts and documents texts. Semantic processing involves generation of semantic images of documents and matching the obtained images. As a result, additional types of relevance are calculated to remove the documents that are not obviously corresponding to the search query semantics. There are three stages in the semantic processing of the discourse: morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis as such. Semantic analysis essentially enhances the precision and recall of the search and decreases the number of irrelevant documents returned in the result of the search

121 Company Profile Page 114 Russia Institute for Systems Analysis of RAS (ISA RAS) Technology Offer TO_RU_28113 Web Content Filter: technology for social safe browsing Russian scientific research institute from Moscow has developed the Web Content Filter presenting a technology for blocking inappropriate content and for social safe Web browsing. Partners for joint further development and adaptation of the technology to specific needs are sought Detailed description: The HTTP traffic is about 50 % of the information transfer in the Web. Some part of this information is inappropriate: porno and extremist sites, dating, social networks and free file hostings, etc. Most categories of users like children, students, employees must not access content of these sites. The main goal of content control software, also known as censorware or Web filtering software is to prevent people from viewing content which is considered inappropriate. Most Web filters use predefined ban lists containing URLs or IP addresses of inappropriate Web sites and Web pages. The ban lists are formed manually by content filter developers or network administrators. The exponential growth of the Web and dynamically changing content cause incomplete coverage of inappropriate Web resources. HTTP proxy (Web proxy, _anonymizer_) servers became popular in Web surfing. It makes usage of predefined ban lists inefficient and useless. Therefore some content filters use filtering rules for HTTP response headers. The corresponding content would be blocked if any restricted signature is found in the HTTP response. With this approach, content is seen just as byte streams. This approach has low recall and precision. It means that a new technology is necessary for social-safe Web-browsing. The Web Content Filter presents a technology for blocking inappropriate content and for social safe Web browsing. It uses an automatic classification method based on full-text content analysis of Web pages: system processes documents and denies access to recognized inappropriate content _on the fly_. This approach is called dynamic content filtering. The automatic classification method examines Web pages according to term importance in a natural language text. The method uses morphological analysis for terms normalization. The URL cache stores often requested URLs.

Security evaluation is a requirement for the Spanish Security Evaluation and Certification Scheme to award a certificate to IT product or system. This awarded certificate is often a requirement for the products aimed to take part of critical infrastructures or some public services, in many states. Products certificated by the Spanish Security Evaluation and Certification Scheme receive the appropriate mutual recognition with other evaluation schemes around the World, signatories of the Common Criteria Recognition Agreement. Detailed description: The independent Security Evaluation of products against internationally recognised criteria allows vendors to objectively demonstrate the security properties and reliability of their products. The Common Criteria (International Standard ISO/IEC 15408) is used by governments and other organizations to assess security and assurance of information technology products aimed to protect their assets. The Common Criteria provides a uniform way of expressing security requirements and defines a set of rigorous criteria by which a product_s security aspects can be meaningfully evaluated. Only a limited number of laboratories worldwide are officially accredited to perform evaluations based on the Common Criteria. CESTI is a testing laboratory, at INTA, accredited by the Spanish Accreditation Entity (ENAC) and the Spanish Cryptology Centre and offers a security evaluation service conforming with the international standards: _Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria_ (ITSEC) and the _Common Criteria_ (CC, aka ISO/IEC 15408), accredited within the Spanish Security Evaluation and Certification Scheme run by the Spanish National Security Agency (CNI). CESTI has undertaken a wide range of product and systems security evaluations, including: - Aeronautics an Defence systems - PKIs - Secure Signature Creation Devices / Smart Cards - Applications for signature verification - USB security tokens - ciphers Innovative aspects / advantages: Most companies and organizations depend on Information Technology and Communications for effective business management. In Spain, Europe and beyond, Information Technology is essential for companies that want to develop and maintain their competitive edge. But the worldwide proliferation of computers and networks introduces new security threats that simple did not exist before, making of security an issue we cannot afford to ignore.

124 The security evaluations done by independent and competent entities help to gain assurance on the security provided by products, and the awarded certificates, internationally recognised, ensure that security properties claimed by product_s vendors have been verified, obtaining an unbiased official seal of approval on which so many purchasing decisions may depend.

134 Company Profile Page 128 Russia Knowledge Genesis Sectors: State (e-government) and commercial sectors (systems of the intelligent analysis of data, adaptive schedulers of corporate resources, Internet-portals, training systems and simulators, etc.) Activities: Development of the intelligent information systems Technology Offer TO_RU_27992 Multi-agent platform and technology for creating intelligent systems for adaptive real-time scheduling and optimization of resources Russian company from Samara has developed a multi-agent platform and technology for adaptive real-time scheduling and optimization solutions. Scheduler is able to react to events, re-schedule interdependent operations, monitor plan execution, interact with users and make changes in schedules on the fly. Company is looking for forward-thinking customers and partners, venture funds, R&D centres, system integrators and other companies interested in advanced scheduling and optimization solutions. Detailed description: The problem of real time resource scheduling and optimization is one of the most complicated in modern science and till now there are no proved solutions on the market. The value of the solution is very high for improving service level for clients, efficiency and utilization of resources, reducing costs and time of deliveries, minimizing risks and penalties. Existing scheduling and optimization solutions operate in batch mode only and cannot work in real time because they use traditional mathematic combinatorial search algorithms (for example _branch and bounds_ method). These algorithms are also very time-consuming (8-12 hours needed to build a schedule for one day), can_t deal with many real life requirements and are not easy in use - as a result output schedules are not feasible or out-of-date because of many new events happening, like order cancellation, arrival of new orders or resources being unavailable, and can be adjusted manually only. In contrast, the adaptive schedulers are intended for the use in real time and built on multi-agent platform with the goal to replace one very complex, centralized, monolithic and sequential optimizer by distributed network of small optimizers (agents) of orders and resources which work asynchronously and quasi-parallel and can find conflicts and negotiate their decisions to solve these conflicts in coordinated way. Instead of traditional exhaustive search of all possible options of resources-to-orders allocation, the developed schedulers use a _virtual market_ to find first appropriate option and then are trying to improve solution if there is sufficient time to do it. Contradictory to the known methods of incremental planning, when new order could be allocated to free resources only, multi-agent scheduler can deal with previously allocated and booked resources. In this case, agents of orders and resources are recognizing conflict and are trying to re-allocate orders between resources using negotiations and taking in account their current states and given goals and preferences. In case of serious conflict _the wave of negotiations_ is being formed that could lead to partial or full reconstruction of the schedule in accordance with economic reasons and available time _ there_s no need to restart scheduling from the beginning every time. The output schedule is considered not as a static data set produced by single run of traditional system but as a self-organized network with many _unstable equilibriums_ which can be used for multi-criteria balancing and semiautomatically adjusted by user at any time.

135 As a result adaptive scheduler is working as event-driven solution with continuous dynamic process of scheduling and re-scheduling of orders and resources and never stops constantly trying to optimize resources and adapt to real life changes. The development of SOA-based p2p networks of adaptive schedulers is in progress for building large-scale enterprise-ready solutions with high performance, scalability and reliability for large enterprises and complex supply chains which can demonstrate co-evolution of self-organized schedulers, for example, where adaptive factory scheduler could interact with the adaptive truck scheduler, etc. Developed platform and technology supports hundreds of interdependent operations in the schedule that allows companies to process and optimize thousands orders a day in real time. Innovative aspects / advantages: The novelty of the solution consists in using multi-agent approach which provides a basis for building adaptive schedulers as self-organized systems which in general are similar to colonies of ants or swarms of bees. In such systems hundreds and thousands of agents of orders and resources continuously compete and cooperate on _virtual market_, recognize and resolve the conflicts and find a balance of interests by negotiations in accordance with both individual preferences of parties and goals of a system as a whole. Main advantages: The advantage of the developed solutions is opportunity to solve very complex problems which require consideration of many factors and dependencies in the schedule. Such problems could not be solved by known methods, or the process of solution was inefficient. The platform and technology allow scheduling in real time, provide fast reaction to events, individual approach to orders and resources, sophisticated interaction with users, they make scheduling system open to real world, flexible and easy to use. Event-driven adaptive schedulers can be easily integrated with online Internet services such as weather forecasts or traffic jams informers, GPS systems, e- Maps, RFID, mobile phones and other modern real time information and communication technologies. Adaptive schedulers developed on the basis of the platform can be implemented with less time and costs.

143 Company Profile Page 138 Spain Mavir. ETS Informatica UNED Technology Offer TO_ES_28319 JBraindead Search Engine. Dynamic Clustering of Web Search Results. JBrainDead is a web search engine developed by the Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval Group at UNED, Spain. Unlike classic web search engines, JBraindead clusters a set of web search results obtained as a previous search process. The generated clustering is automatically labeled based on descriptors extracted from the retrieved information and can be browsed using a generalization-specialization paradigm. These features allow the user to easily recognize, understand and access to the relevant information. Detailed description: The JBraindead system is the research result of the NLP group at UNED concerning document clustering and its application to organize web search results. One of its main features, which differentiates JBraindead with respect to other commercial approaches such as Carrot ( or Clusty ( is the use of a lattice to perform the document grouping instead a hierarchy. This approach allows representing complex relationships between clusters in a easier way (i.e. multiple inheritance). Moreover, the prototype implements techniques to automatically extract and select the clusters' descriptions (which are multi-term descriptors) specifically designed for these scenarios. Finally, the system introduces two novel paradigms to visualize and interact with the retrieved contents. These approaches exploit the informative richness of the lattices improving the end-user experience when exploring and interacting with the retrieved information. Innovative aspects / advantages: Nowadays there are a few commercial systems specifically oriented to perform document clustering using web search results, Carrot and Clusty are the most popular examples. For this reason, Jbraindead and also all the research behind can be considered as an added value to face the new generation of web search engines. New directions point to the use of the social information included in the web and also the experimentation with new user interaction paradigms more useful and comprehensive. In this way, we consider that JBraindead is well positioned. From the technological point of view, this system introduces novel approaches to perform a clustering task: a) The whole process is online, which means a dynamic clustering closer to the user's query. b) The use of complex structures (lattices) to organize the information. Such structures allow to access the same information via different paths. c) The system doesn't apply complex Natural Language Processing techniques, so it can be considered partially language independent. d) Although we are using Yahoo! And Google to produce the search results, the system can be easily adapted to any other search engine, public or private (intranet) e) Two novel visualization and interaction approaches. Both exploit

144 the informative richness of the lattices and they have not been applied to any clustering system before. Main advantages: The system can be exploited by any company to improve and ease the information access process.

151 Company Profile Page 147 Spain MTC Soft Sectors: Information Technologies Activities: Software development Technology Offer TO_ES_28305 "Parsalyser": A Linguistic Solution to Perfecting Search Technology The main problem with today_s Internet search engines is that they return too much irrelevant information. The solution to a large part of this problem is to parse the language of the text to be searched, so as search motors can distinguish between different uses of the terms. This requires an application to perform automatically the linguistic analysis of the text in question, a _text labeller program._ Detailed description: Our company, MTC Soft, has developed such a tool, based on linguistic analysis done by a veteran European Commission translator. It analyses the documents and produces enriched texts with additional information, so a search engine is able to index this new raw material from a huge text database (locally or on the Internet). Advanced searches on these documents will obtain accurate results, even when common words are used, words which usually produce poor results in today_s search portals. Thanks to this process we obtain a selective filtering of documents. The principal element of the software is the module that analyses the English text in detail. It then automatically labels the text with linguistic attributes and additional information. No previously inserted metadata is necessary for this process. This tool obtains from every word in the text: - The grammatical role carried out in the phrase: verb, substantive, preposition& - The syntactic role: subject, verb, direct complement& - Semantic information, "families" (words dealing with the same subject), synonyms& - The syntactic groupings which form the different parts of each phrase. Texts are generated in XML format, with the linguistic information in a structured way, to allow further automated processing. The results returned from web search engines include too many documents, most of them not related to the subject we are looking for. Filtering options to reduce the scope and the matches are useless in most cases. Our text labeller application allows users to use powerful new criteria based on the most relevant information: the relationships between the words in sentences. Innovative aspects / The main innovation of Parsalyser: advantages: - Is based on the linguistic analysis from a philologist and professional translator. We perform Word Sense Disambiguation using linguistic knowledge, not Statistical analysis. Main advantages: - Low computational cost process.

163 Company Profile Page 160 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28016 Algorithms for MIMO-OFDM wireless communications Communications Group of University Carlos III of Madrid has designed and implemented algorithms for the improvement of the performance of MIMO-OFDM systems. This technology is capable of providing high data rate wireless communications. The developed algorithms allow, on one side, the correction of the imperfections introduced by radio-frequency equipment and, on the other side, adaptation of the transmission to the channel characteristics. Detailed description: MIMO-OFDM technology Multiple Input Multiple Output _Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) combines the diversity and capacity of MIMO with the immunity to multipath of OFDM, resulting the ideal candidate for the provision of high speed wireless communications in harsh environments. Communications Group has developed and implemented algorithms that optimize the use of this technology: on one hand, by correcting undesired effects introduced by radio-frequency systems, such as phase noise; on the other hand, adapting the transmitted signal to the channel, leading to a much higher spectral efficiency. Phase noise, due to the non-ideality of oscillators, exists in every transmitting or receiving equipment, It is particularly damaging for OFDM systems due to the fact that it produces a loss of orthogonallity between the subcarriers, one of the key features for the right functioning of this technology. The developed algorithms allow estimating and correcting this phase noise, thus avoiding its dangerous effects on the received signal. Adaptive modulation is a technique that allows taking advantage of the capabilities of a transmission channel, choosing the modulation that permits the transmission of the highest amount of information, according to the channel state. In turn, knowledge of the channel in the transmitter is mandatory, and that is not always possible. For that reason, we have developed algorithms to adapt the MIMO-OFDM signal to the channel when the latter is not perfectly and instantaneously known, but only its statistics, and also procedures to convey the channel state information from the receiver (where it is usuaily estimated) to the transmitter. The prototype that has been implemented allows us to verify the behavior of these algorithms in realistic situations. Innovative aspects / advantages: The main difference between our algorithms and other existing ones is the degree of required channel knowledge. Many algorithms assume that the channel has been previously and ideally estimated. This is not possible in real systems, so our algorithms either correct jointly channel and phase noise effects or adapt the signal to the channel without its perfect previous knowledge. Main advantages: This technology provides high speed wireless transmission so that it causes a cost reduction and/or improvement of the performance offered by mobile communications operators.

165 Company Profile Page 162 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28021 Evaluation of security protocols implementations The use of security protocols and architectures arise new problems, as interoperability between the different implementations, or a greater predisposition to suffer attacks that saturate the available computing resources, stand out. This project puts forward a methodology that allows assessing the level of conformity with the standard of the implementation of a security protocol or architecture and, at the same time, evaluating the performance of said solution. Moreover, the specific goals are: Conformity analysis, Interoperability and Performance. In order to develop the methodology, firstly the identification of parameters that influence on conformity with the standard and performance is carried out. The Group looks for collaboration with organizations or companies within the telecommunications sector as well as those on the Information and Telecommunications security sector. Detailed description: Nowadays, the transmission of sensitive information requires security services (such as confidentiality, authentication or non-repudiation) which were not present on the protocols designed at the beginning of the expansion of communication networks (protocols that are currently the most widely spread and used). In order to cover these security gaps, security protocols and architectures that provide the security services required by the rest of communications protocols have been designed and standardized. However, the use of said security protocols and architectures has given rise to new problems. Among these, the interoperability problems between the different implementations of the protocols and architectures, or a greater predisposition to suffer attacks that saturate the available computing resources, stand out. This project puts forward a methodology that allows assessing the level of conformity with the standard of the implementation of a security protocol or architecture and, at the same time, evaluating the performance of said solution. The specific goals of this methodology are concisely stated below. - Conformity analysis: The specifications of the security protocols and architectures will be analysed in order to identify those aspects that are critical when establishing the conformity of one implementation in relation to what described on the standard. - Interoperability: From the results of the conformity tests with the standard, and taking into account the results obtained from the conformity evaluation of other implementations, it will be possible to assess the capacities and limitations of the interoperability of the implementation with others. - Performance: The performance level that may be obtained from the implementation will be evaluated, both in aspects that are traditionally evaluated on performance tests for networks, and in other aspects usually not evaluated but that are of great interest within the context of security protocols. In order to reach the proposed goals, the specific objectives comprised within this project include the identification of the parameters that influence on the conformity with the standard and the identification of performance parameters that are o interest for the implementation of security protocols from which a methodology for validating and evaluating the implementation of safety protocols and architectures can be evolved.

166 The procedure developed by UC3M researchers will allow assessing the compatibility degree of two equipments, which will allow organizations to choose equipments that can interoperate on a medium and long term. Since the design of security protocols is not a trivial matter, and carrying them out incorrectly may endanger the security of a complete system if the resulting protocol happens to be faulty, the design and analysis of these protocols has always been left to the organizations in charge of designing and standardizing the rest of the communications protocols. During last years, many protocols have been standardized so that the specifications of these mechanisms for protecting the information were available for any development group. The following are some of these standards nowadays extensively integrated with communication tools: Transport Layer Security (TLS), IPsec and all its internal protocols (Internet Key Exchange, IKE., Authentication Header, AH), Kerberos (version 5), Secure Shell (SSH), Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), etc., and many others. This situation has entailed the appearance of lots of manufacturers with products that provide mechanisms for securing communication networks. Generally speaking, most of the deviations from the standard that we may find on the implementation of standardized security protocols are caused by some of the following reasons: - Not using standardised cryptographic algorithms, or an inadequate implementation. - Faulty programming when implementing the specifications of the standard. - Manufacturer_s modifications and optimisations on what established by the standard in order to increase the competitive value of the product. Innovative aspects / advantages: Among the benefits that will arise from the development of this procedure it is worth mentioning the creation of groups of tests, as well as the mechanisms for carrying out the measurements, the interpretation of the results obtained on each test and the inclusion of the characteristics that, although not compulsory, are necessary for using the security architecture or protocol. These factors cause the proposed methodology to generate comprehensive sets of tests that allow gaining detailed information on an implementation_s conformity with its respective standard, as well as knowing the performance capacities that said implementation can offer. Main advantages: The main advantage of the described procedure compared to others is that none of the procedures or methodologies known nowadays deal with the subject of safety protocols interoperability. In those organizations having communication protection equipments, this procedure allows assessing the compatibility degree between new equipment offered by different manufacturers and the equipment the organization already has. In the case of companies that manufacture security equipments, these can use the described protocol in order to get support on their interoperability capabilities and therefore increase their sales level. Intellectual Property Rights: Secret know-how Collaboration Details: Technical co-operation: Commercial agreement with technical assistance: Type of partner sought: The developed procedure applies to organizations or companies within the

167 telecommunications sector as well as those on the Information and Telecommunications security sector. The potential target companies of the described procedure mainly fall into two different groups: 1) Any kind of organizations having equipment for the protection of communications. If those organizations must acquire new equipment (e.g. for expanding their capabilities), they must carry out a survey to check which are the manufacturers that offer devices that can interoperate with theirs. Nowadays organizations usually feel tied to an specific manufacturer to ensure interoperability. 2) Companies manufacturing communication protection devices. The less strong companies must ensure a greater interoperability degree. In this way, an organization will feel reassured about the interoperability of a new piece of equipment they may acquire with the rest of their equipment. Therefore, equipment manufacturers could use this procedure to support their interoperability capabilities and, in this way, increase their sales.

168 Company Profile Page 165 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28022 Authentication System based on ID-Network Smart Cards (ID-NSCards) for Critical Environments Researchers in the Information Security area in the Carlos III University of Madrid (Spain) are interested to exploit the potential of an emerging technology: network smart cards. These new devices have a number of additional advantages for communications security in networked systems, comparing with the traditional smart cards. These interesting features could be applied to individuals identification procedures in environments where critical tasks or operations take place. The required collaboration would be focused in the development and implementation of an authentication system for critical environments based on this technology. Detailed description: Recently, smart cards have aspired to be considered as a common host within the network: Network Smart Card. Thus it must incorporate a variety of network authentication mechanisms and protocols to participate transparently in a heterogeneous networking context. Nevertheless, the authentication protocol design for smart cards has traditionally been oriented to support the functionality of a hardware token, as opposed to a design oriented towards the perspective of a host with network connectivity. Moreover, the smart card is overly dependant on the Terminal and this dependency is particularly undesirable when dealing with a unknown Terminal of questionable trust. Our work is focused on obtaining a high level of network integration and interoperability for the network smart cards, with the goal to develop robust systems for the identification and authentication of individuals holding network id-cards. This approach is specially interesting when a critical scenario is considered. An efficient and effective authentication architecture based on id-cards is required in environments with critical operation or installations: hospital, nuclear, air-traffic or railway control or whatever low fault tolerant system. As technological base, our research propose a remote authentication protocol architecture with the following characteristics: * Stand-alone supplicant: We propose a new smart card remote authentication model. The smart card adopts the functionality of stand-alone supplicant vs. traditional split supplicant. This functionality is highly required in identification and authentication scenarios. In critical environments, the access Terminal should be considered untrustworthy and therefore additional security countermeasures are defined in our work. * Atomic smart card authentication protocol design: the authentication protocol should be designed as an integral part of the smart card. We propose a specific protocol stack for a network id-card. * End-to-end mutual authentication schema: the network id-card participates as a communication endpoint. On the opposite end, a centralized service controls the physical or logic access to the critical system. This authentication tunnel avoids attacks that are carried out by a manipulated access Terminal. * Layer 2 authentication: our research aims to exploit the advantages for network smart card integration based on a layer 2 authentication scheme. We might implement lightweight communication protocol stack for these constraint devices, without lost of authentication robustness.

169 This project aims to specify and to develop an authentication system based on network smart cards with the previous features. This system will be specified for the robust identification of citizens or employees in critical environments. Innovative aspects / advantages: Network Smart Cards is an emerging technology in study/prototype phase. There are few, although very interesting, works on this matter. Different strategies and approaches could be considered depending on the required final services. Our work is oriented to the exploitation of the layer 2 capabilities of the network smart card, with identification and authentication purposes. This fact favours backward compatibility with legacy smart cards, as well as, easy integration with a heterogeneous access network system (wired or wireless) and it provides communication interoperability with standardized networking protocols. This is a quite novel approach comparing with traditional smart cards or another techniques, which are based on a complete network protocol stack implemented in the smart card, with the goal to support common security protocols (SSL, IPsec, etc.). With our work, we aims to develop an specific system for identification based on these new ID-Network Smart Cards (ID-NSCards). Main advantages: The deployment of this technology in a company or institution could have important competitive advantages related to the security of the system, and furthermore, to the reduction of time and costs in the maintenance and update of the involved security software and identity credentials. With the use of this technology, the identification and authentication of individuals or employees will be improved by means of a secure centralized service. An authentication system based on network id-cards allow us to provide robust mutual on-line identification and authentication procedures, as well as, the inter-working tasks (maintenance and software update, security policies, authorization attributes, etc.) between the network smart card and the remote authentication server. This end-to-end relationship implies that the Terminal/Host software is not modified and it favours the time and cost reduction. Furthermore, this fact allows us a dynamic, effective and very secure deployment, that is very required in these critical environments.

174 Company Profile Page 172 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27996 Automatization techniques for processing biomedical signals using machine learning methods. The Signal Processing Group (Department of Signal Theory and Communications, University Carlos III, Madrid, Spain) offers the expertise of its members in the automatic processing of biomedical signals. The main advantages in this technology are the decreased cost, the time saved and the increased reliability of the results. Technical cooperation for the research and development with internal and external funding is sought. Detailed description: Machine learning methods, in which the group is specialised, allow the processing of data both for regression and detection/classification applications. In the first case, the goal can be to recover (i.e. estimate) some missing data, filtering or smoothing signals corrupted by noise, the separation of the desired signal or signals from the interfering ones, or the extraction of the relevant information from the observations. Examples of this case are the automatic separation of the heartbeat of the fetus from that of the mother in an electrocardiogram (ECG), or the removal of interference and noise from an electroencephalogram (EEG) or a biomedical image (e.g. radiography, angiography or tomographic image). In the second case, the goal can be the detection of strange phenomena or bodies in the signals, or their classification according to some prefixed or learned criterion. Examples of this case are the construction of an automatic detector (or even predictor) of epileptic seizures from a multichannel EEG signal, the development of a monitoring system for the automatic detection of ventricular arrhythmias in cardiac patients, or the programming of an interactive application for bacillus labelling from images of biological cultures for automatic patient diagnosis. In any case, the tools used in both cases belong, as it has already been mentioned, to the area known as machine learning methods: neural networks, support vector machines (SVMs), Gaussian processes (GP), etc. In general, these methods try to build, usually from labelled examples by an expert in the field, a machine (software or hardware) that extracts all the relevant information from the available samples. Once that machine has been trained, it will be able to generalize well for new unlabelled examples, providing right labels for them (e.g. the presence or not of an arrhythmia or an epileptic seizure). The members of the group are experts in machine learning techniques, and have an ample experience in dealing with biomedical signals, both in the case of onedimensional multi-channel signals (e.g. ECG or EEG), and in the case of multidimensional signals (images). Innovative aspects / advantages: Regarding automatic processing of biomedical signals, there are many examples of the application of machine learning techniques. Nevertheless, there are still many areas where they have not been applied. Besides, this is a very dynamic field, with new more sophisticated methods constantly appearing. The difference is given by the ample experience of the members of the group in the development and validation of algorithms, endorsed by the participation in many research projects and industrial contracts, as well as the multiple publications in international conferences and journals.

175 Main advantages: The main advantages of this technology are: - Cost reduction, due to the fact that specialised personal can be freed from many routine tasks. - Reduced processing time of the data, thanks to the constant increase in computing power and the existence of techniques to accelerate the training and processing of the machines. - Increased processing capability, thanks to the application of more and more sophisticated algorithms. - More reliability of the results, allowing noise removal from the signals and their easy reproducibility. Intellectual Property Rights: Others (registered design, plant variety right, etc) Collaboration Details: Technical co-operation: Type of partner sought: The group can offer the knowledge, expertise and know how of its members, proved by their participation, during the 2002 _ 2007 period, in 15 research projects (with regional, national and international funding) and 13 industrial contracts, as well as the publication of 65 papers in international journals and over 100 in international conferences during the same period.

176 Company Profile Page 174 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27997 Intelligent monitoring systems based on sensor networks with defence, security and domotics applications. The Signal Processing Group (Department of Signal Theory and Communications, University Carlos III, Madrid, Spain) offers the expertise of its members in the development of monitoring systems based on sensor networks. The main advantages of this technology are the decreased cost, the time saved and the increased reliability of the results. Technical cooperation for the research and development with internal and external funding is sought. Detailed description: Sensor networks, with which the group has a wide working experience, allow the acquisition of multimedia data using a set of different sensors: acoustic, visual (i.e. video cameras), temperature, humidity, pressure, movement, speed, etc. In wide area networks this sensors are usually wireless, small, cheap, and have a low energy-consumption and limited processing capacity. In closed areas they can be wireless or wired, bigger, more sophisticated and expensive, have a greater processing power, and not be limited by energy-consumption. Of course, there are many networks where multiple low-cost wireless sensors are combined with a few more expensive wired ones. The number of sensors can also vary a lot: from a few to hundreds or even thousands. Given the flexibility of sensor networks, they have a huge range of applications: - Military: reconnaissance of terrain or opposing forces, monitoring friendly forces, early detection of chemical or biological attacks, battlefield damage assessment, etc. - Environmental: tracking the movement of animals (e.g. birds), forest fire detection, flood detection and prevention, intelligent irrigation systems, etc. - Domotics: home automation for the creation of an intelligent home. - Security: automatic intruder detection and tracking, monitoring dependent patients, intelligent access systems, etc. - Tracking: of vehicles and pedestrians for location, navigation, steering, etc. - Other commercial applications: remote inventory management, interactive museums, automatic control of air conditioning and heat in office buildings, etc. In this kind of networks there are many problems that have to be solved: location and auto-location of sensors, data fusion, data association, transmission and processing techniques to maximize the life-time of wireless sensors, coding and compression of the transmitted information, detection methods, tracking of multiple targets inside the network, etc. Nevertheless, the algorithms developed by the members of the group span almost all the aspects of sensor networks, both from a theoretical point of view (design of algorithms for coding, transmission, detection and processing of information) and from a practical point of view (planning and building real sensor networks, integration of heterogeneous sensor networks, and programming application interfaces for gathering, processing and displaying information). Innovative aspects / advantages: Building intelligent monitoring systems using sensor networks is still recent. Thus, there are still many potential applications that have not been considered yet. Moreover, there are still a good deal of unsolved theoretical problems. Hence, the development of theoretical solutions and algorithms tailored to them is an area with a huge research activity currently.

177 The difference is given by the ample experience of the members of the group in the development and validation of algorithms, endorsed by the participation in many research projects and industrial contracts, as well as the multiple publications in international conferences and journals. Main advantages: The main advantages of this technology are: - Cost reduction, due to the optimization in the use of the resources and the availability of very low-cost sensors. - Capability of integrating multimedia data from very different sensors. - Reduced processing time of the information, thanks to the use of automatic techniques for gathering, fusion and processing all the available data. - Increased processing capability, thanks to the availability of an increased set of data on which more and more sophisticated algorithms can be applied. - More reliability of the results, allowing noise removal from the signals and their easy reproducibility. Intellectual Property Rights: Others (registered design, plant variety right, etc) Collaboration Details: Technical co-operation: Type of partner sought: Regarding the intelligent monitoring, systems based on sensor networks can be of interest for security companies (specialised both in closed areas and in wide open spaces), as well as in the military environment. In this case the main objective would be to develop a realistic test environment to validate the multiple algorithms available and designed by the group. It would be also possible to develop new algorithms tailored to the specific necessities of the companies interested in this technology. The cost would be variable depending on the test environment developed (small closed area or wide open area) or the application considered. Responsible IRC Fundación Para El Conocimiento Madri+D

The storage systems developed are featured by software gobernance, making them portable across different hardware storage resources, and their dynamic adaptativy to the different circunstances of computer systems following the autonomic system paradigm. They also allow to get high performance storage by using data distribution or striping acroos multiple devices. One of the group s technologies y the AFTSYS system. A fault-tolerant storage system for persistent distributed objects, user configurable and adaptive to system behavior. Detailed description: This technology provides a fault-tolerance model for the files of a parallel and distributed storage system. The main features of this technology are the following: - A fault-tolerance model for parallel and distributed storage systems that allows employ different fault-tolerance mechanisms at file level. - A model based on distribution patterns that offers a flexible and simple faulttolerance model description. - Properties of the distribution schemes resulted from the associated distribution patterns as defined in the proposed fault-tolerance model. - The algorithms needed to add, remove or modify the file-based fault-tolerance model in a dynamic way. - The introduction of distribution schemes based on external redundancy. Those schemes allow the dynamic addition and removal of fault-tolerance support to a file. - A POSIX extension to add, remove, modify and define the distribution schemes for files. The same functionality can be extended for minial systems or systems without file systems. An evaluation of the proposed model shows that, even with the natural overhead introduced by the fault-tolerant objects, this overhead is low and offer storage system users a simple and practical solution. Innovative aspects / advantages: This system provides the following new features: 1.- Adaptive storage and computing system following circumstances. 2.- Totally governed by software, making it fully portable. 3.- Fault tolerance schemas can be defined in a per object basis. 4.- More than one fault tolerated, and the user may request this feature dynamically. 5.- Not linked to a specific hardware and low resources consumption, which makes it useful even for embedded systems. 6.- Specially well suited to be used in high-performance systems, like highavailability data servers, imaging servers or Web servers. 7.- Allows the an object to be used with or without the fault tolerant schema, following performance needs and converting fault tolerant in conventional objects and viceversa. 8.- Easily stackable with extra security layers, cipher, compression, etc. Nowadays, fault-tolerant storage sysems are strongly linked to a specific technology (as RAID devices) or to a specific operating systems (as Linux or Windows).

179 Main advantages: This technology might provide competitive advantages or in those systems where large conventional fault-tolerant storage systems are not available, either in those systems with a set of independent distributed storage devices to provide different fault-tolerant object-oriented schemas with great flexibility. In particular, it may be useful to dynamically manage fault-tolerant storage in those systems without a basic, or even none, local file system.

180 Company Profile Page 178 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27999 Automatic Deployment of Secure Applications in WSN using MDA Research group ARCOS of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (Spain) have been working on wireless sensor networks and their application to data recording from several sources. As part of this research we have delevoped a platform to automatically create and deply secure applications for wireless sensors networks using MDA (ADSA) to develop these applications intuitively by using a GUI, and by including new and existing componentes for WSN, such as secure communications, ciphering, etc. This technology is useful for every kind of application using WSN and to create and deploy sensor networks in a semiautoatic way. It has several advantages compared with the traditional development, very expensive and error prone. The platform itself introduces an enhanced security by reducing to a minimum development errors and by provided a controlled development platform. Moreover, it allows to include new or legacy componentes, such as secure communications, easily an intuitively. Detailed description: The development of the proposed framework has been inspired by the MDA standard. Integration, open (standard based), components reusability, portability and model-driven development are basic principles of MDA for easing the building of complex and large systems. The motivation for using MDA is that there are too many architectures, platforms, operating systems or user requirements and the key idea is make them able to coexist through a model-based representation, by agreeing on models and how to translate between them. Consequently, the goal of this work is the building of a MDA-based platform for developing WSN applications in a graphical user-friendly environment. In particular, the proposed framework has the following properties: - High abstraction level for writing applications. Programmers should not be worried about hardware and software details. Graphical building of applications is desirable in order to ease the programming. - Specification of user requirements in different abstraction levels such as hardware (where the application will be installed), underlying operating system and application requirements itself. - Component-based development. Since TinyOS is written in nesc, the minimum pieces for constructing applications are the components. - Code generation and deployment of applications over the previously specified platform. Once the application has been programmed, it should be compiled and deployed. Therefore, the implemented framework should be able to specify the requirements for WSN applications in an exhaustive and in the same time simple way. Also, it should provide a complete environment for supporting the process of applications building through models, which represent different views of the development process. The independent platform model developed can be automatically translated to a dependent platform model, taking into account the specific operating system and hardware. These feature represents an advantage for the portability of

181 applications, since normally these systems are developed in an ad-hoc way. Finally, it should accomplish the task of generating binary code for different platforms. It is important to point out that, MDA does not define how models have to be made and translated among different abstraction levels. The MDA framework uses XML manifests in order to describe user requirements. User requirements are provided through graphical elements such as menus or buttons. For instance, a menu containing the sensor boards models is displayed when the user tries to choose the specific sensor board to be programmed. Innovative aspects / advantages: Our framework is innovative because different reasons: - Graphical composition of WSN applications. A WSN application can be viewed as a set of interconnected modules. In this way, we can compose robust applications wiring components that use and provide the same interface. - Code generation. Configuration files and Makefiles are automatically generated. The WSN configuration files are built from the components graph (list of components and wirings among them). A Makefile specifies compilation options such as the hardware platforms. - Deployment. The generated applications may be compiled and downloaded into the specific microcontroller. - It is multios and multiplatform. The OS and the WSN technology can be chosen by using the GUI. - Minimum lines of code written. Only the mínimum to specify the user applications. Lower levels are completely hidden. - It is completely governed by software, which makes it portable among different platforms. - It is not coupled to a specific hardware technology and it requires very few computational resources. - It is specially suitable to be used in high performance systems, as for instance systems of high data availability or web servers. - It allows to stack aditional security layers such as cipher, and efficience layers such as the compression. The current prototype is able to deploy executable code into Mica and Telos family motes. Main advantages: - It allows to develop more effective and trustworthy applications. - It allows to easily include characteristics as secure communications. - It allows to reduce costs in the development of sure applications with WSN. - The management is very simple and intuitive.

194 Company Profile Page 194 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28012 INTERACTOR: Natural Interaction Platform Interactor is an Interaction Platform based on Natural Interaction (human-like) techniques developped by the Laboratorio de Bases de Datos Avanzadas (Labda) at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. It enables to implement with little effort a corpus-based Task Oriented Interaction Domain for bipartite dialogues. Thus it assumes an application and provides access to it through Natural Interaction. Detailed description: Interactor can be implanted onto a computer system holding out a set of tasks. This platform will receive user interventions (represented through semantic structures), update interaction state, and handle the interaction in a human-like way. For this, a wide range of interface components can be inlayed into the platform (voice recognition/synthesis and Natural Language Processing, 3D avatars, GUI, etc). Through interaction, it invokes the execution of some task(s) and feeds the interaction back with its (their) results. When it finds the system should take the floor and express something, it constructs system_s interventions (represented through semantic structures) and provides them to the interface components. Besides, its Situation Model gathers knowledge on spatio-temporal features and objects within the interaction domain, and it is able to receive and process information about the user_s situation. It also provides situation-based services. Interactor dialogue management is composed of four agents implemented in Java, running in a custom-made multi-agent platform (Ecosystem). The situation component is implemented trough two agents (also in Java) and based on a spatio-temporal database. The rest of the Interactor system (other agents) is also implemented in Java. All the knowledge bases and the mentioned databases are set on the OracleTM 10g DBMS. Innovative aspects / advantages: Yet there are starting to appear some human-like based interaction systems, few rely on advanced cognitive architectures for Natural Interaction as this does. In addition, Dialogue and Circumstances processing have special prominence in this system. On one hand, Threads Dialogue Model enables robust interaction, with intentional joint action techniques and advanced turn management. On the other hand, very few interaction systems count on a Situation Model (few prototypes, none commercial). Such model enriches interactive reasoning with the circumstantial aspect, apart from the situational services it can provide. In addition, this Situation Model is empowered by spatio-temporal database technology, ensuring versatility, scalability and efficiency. Finally, multi-agent technology support provides simultaneous processing of all the involved knowledge models and their joint contribution to the interaction. Main advantages: It eases the interaction with computer applications to anyone not used to interact with computers. Besides, it provides an alternative interaction way (in parallel to some other of the classical type) for users preferring human-like interaction. Finally, corporations holding such systems might obtain an added value in an innovative ahead-of-time company image.

196 Company Profile Page 196 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28013 Traffic Sign Recognition System The research group CAOS at the Computing Department of the Carlos III University of Madrid, Spain, offers an efficient recognition system for traffic signs using a set of classifiers. This system can be used as part of an active security system in cars. The fact that the system is based on a set of classifiers facilitates a distributed implementation, resulting in cheaper hardware and an improvement in fault-tolerance. Detailed description: The growing number of cars and the high rate of car accidents all over the world motivates the search of new methods to prevent such accidents. In recent years, work has been done in incorporating intelligent systems in vehicles to assist drivers in order to prevent and avoid accidents. An example of such a system is the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), which warns the driver of dangerous situations. Some of these systems are specialized to urban environments where the presence of pedestrians and traffic sign recognition presents additional challenges. In particular, traffic sign recognition can be difficult due to (partly) hidden or damaged signs. Traffic sign recognition is recently attracting interest due to its application to the ADAS, since traffic signs may automatically limit a car speed or indicate that the limit has been exceeded. Within the machine learning community there is an agreement on the need of combining several classifiers, what it is called the set of classifiers, to take decisions. The contribution of each classifier and even the decision as to which classifier is best in each case can be considered as well. The key idea is that sets of classifiers are more precise than each of the classifiers separately. Taking into consideration the application setting and the research area mentioned above, our system is focused on traffic sign recognition once the signs have been detected. The system is basically composed of two modules: the image preprocessing module and the image recognition module. The preprocessing module includes tools for selecting the characteristics that reduce the amount of information needed to identify a traffic sign. Thanks to this reduction, the recognition module works only with the information it needs, resulting in a more efficient system. On the other hand, the recognition module is composed of a set of specialized classifiers that can classify each traffic sign in a distributed manner. This distribution is mapped directly to hardware, allowing the use of midrange hardware. Innovative aspects / advantages: The automatic selection of traffic sign characteristics and sign classification by means of specialized sets of classifiers makes the proposed system different to current systems. Main advantages: Intellectual Property Rights: Companies that develop Advanced Driver Assistance System, that are able of recognizing traffic signs increasing safety and ease of driving, will increase the worth of its final product if it is efficient in any environment what Driving takes place.

198 Company Profile Page 198 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28014 Multifrequency and multifunction antennas based on single printed technology partially filled with metamaterial structures The Radiofrequency Group from the Escuela Politécnica Superior of the Carlos III University from Madrid have been working in printed antennas for a long time. Recently the new technology of metamaterials has opened new possibilities in the development of multifrequency antennas with different radiation patterns to be used simultaneously for several applications (i.e. different mobile services and GPS or Galileo) Detailed description: Multi-frequency microstrip patch antennas partially filled with metamaterials or Left-Handed (LH) structures are presented. In addition, the presence of LH structures also allows having miniaturized antennas. Thus, multifrequency, dual mode and miniaturized antennas based on single patches partially filled with LH structures have been obtained. An implementation based on microstrip patches partially filled with mushroom like structures is proposed. This approach is used in the design, manufacture and measurement of two multi-frequency patch antennas. The first one shows two dipolar (patch like) modes at 1.06 GHz and 2.16 GHz and a monopolar mode (null at broadside) at 1.45 GHz. The ratio between the resonant frequencies of both dipolar modes can be arbitrarily chosen (by means of a proper design of the patch and the LH structures) and, in this case, is The second antenna is designed to work at closer frequencies. In this case the frequency ratio is dramatically reduced to produce a dual dipolar antenna working at 1.81 GHz and 2.20 GHz (giving a ratio of 1.21). Innovative aspects / advantages: - Multifrequency and multifunction antennas based on single printed technology (with one layer) for simultaneous mobile and/or GPS applications. - Antenna miniaturization. - Self-diplexed antennas (with the same technology) with high isolation between different frequencies (RFID application) Points to be developed: - Although it may be enough for the proposed applications, increase the antenna bandwidth. - Depending on the miniaturization degree, increase the antenna efficiency. Main advantages: - Multifrequency and multifunction antennas for conventional printed technology. - Conventional planar technology (very cheap) for the design of antennas with several radiating modes. - Antenna miniaturization. Intellectual Property Rights: Others (registered design, plant variety right, etc) Some research results have been published in the most important European and American conference in Antennas and Propagation. They are also accepted for being published in the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation. An industrial agreement with an Spanish enterprise is being signed for the development of an array of these antennas at higher frequencies, although an initial prototype will be made at mobile frequencies.

200 Company Profile Page 200 Spain Parque Científico Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28015 Self Configuring Routing and 802.1D Bridging Bridge with automatic hierarchical local MAC addresses University Carlos III of Madrid offers the first hierarchical routing protocol on layer two using self configured standard local MAC addresses. Makes Ethernet networks scalable without encapsulation. Compatible and self configurable within IEEE 802.1D standard bridges through a combined spanning tree protocol. Simple application of Up/Down routing and Distance Vector principles, enhanced Turn Prohibition mechanisms that allow last turn to destination branch to be permitted. Partner sought: big/small switch manufacturers. Detailed description: CHT (Combined Hierarchical Tree) protocol is a datalink level network protocol that can be considered of as composed by two partial protocols: CSTP and HURP. CSTP is an spanning tree protocol tree which builds up a central spanning tree exclusively formed by the combined capacity bridges with connectivity among them. The Standard 802.1D bridges,, get connected to it automatically, grouped in standard spanning subtrees HURP (Hierarchical Up/down Routing) Protocol broadcasts the routes to neighbouring network bridges (those directly connected by a link) and routes the frames destined to the hierarchically assigned local MAC addresses complementing the standard (802.1D) routing through different schemes: with vertical and cross routing and with Turn Prohibition mechanisms. HLMAC addressing and vertical routing through tree: HURP protocol allows direct routing through expansion tree links with no use of tables, frame broadcasting or address learning on the ports, by means of direct switching by decoding the frame_s hierarchical HLMAC destination address. The frame rises up to the bridge whose prefix address is on the destination HLMAC address, and then goes down by the branch to the destination host. Transversal HURP Routing: HURP routing allows selecting transversal routes, alternative to the spanning tree. The use of distance vectors allows bridges to calculate optimal routes and assess whether they will go through the tree or transversal links. Figure 3 shows the route, represented by a discontinuous arrow, that follows a frame starting from a origin end equipment (O_), whose hierarchical local MAC address is , until arriving to a destination end equipment (F_), with hierarchical local MAC address The first leaf bridge (H1) acknowledges an intermediate bridge (BR3) which allows for a faster route by routing the frame through the (A2) transversal link between bridges H1 and BR3, and then continuing through the A3 transversal link connecting said (BR3) intermediate bridge until reaching BR2 bridge that is connected to the (F_) destination end equipment. Combined spanning tree. CSTP protocol: a spanning tree protocol that builds up a central spanning tree exclusively formed by the combined capacity bridges with connectivity among them and to whom the standard bridges, grouped in spanning subtrees, are connected. The figure below shows a mixed network composed by 802.1D standard and combined bridges. Standard bridges are connected in subtrees to the main tree composed by the interconnected combined bridges.

201 Turn Prohibition: HURP protocol employs turn prohibition mechanisms to avoid user frame loops due to the transitory inconsistency of routing tables. These mechanisms also prevent the deadlocks that may occur due to de cyclic dependence of the paths of the devices. The standard spanning tree protocol, STP or RSTP, ensures by itself the absence of loops during its convergence by blocking the network bridge ports that may originate a loop, including all designated ports that block and those that get blocked following the protocol. The HLMAC hierarchical coordinates allow applying the Up/Down conventional turn prohibition (Autonet, Smartbridge), and those enhanced using additional information included on the HLMAC addresses. Innovative aspects / advantages: Technology based on a RSTP generated hierarchical address tree which assigns each bridge a hierarchical address with topological meaning and that is employed for simple routing. Includes a procedure for building up a hierarchical spanning tree from a root bridge with at least a bridge branching from it through a designated port and to whom a local MAC address expressing the bridge_s position on the spanning tree is automatically assigned. The frames with local destination address (HLMAC) are routed through a procedure using the hierarchical spanning tree with no address learning, and an innovative routing through transversal links (which are disabled by STP protocol) if the route cost is less or equal or when the use of the installed network wants to be improved. All the (combined) extended bridges that have been assigned a hierarchical local MAC address can also process frames with universal MAC addresses assigned to destination terminals, such as an 802.1D standard bridge. This hierarchical tree is build up together with the 802.1D standard bridge resulting in a combined spanning tree that comprises both expanded bridges and the 25 conventional bridges operating under 802.1D. Standard 802.1D bridges can be turned into extended bridges by adding this functionality through a simple software migration. Main advantages: CSTP-HURP combined switches enable the full use of the installed physical communications network, with no blocked links and with no need of manual configuration, which prevents network expansions and increases its capacity and availability. The interoperatibility between expanded (combined) bridges and standard bridges is guaranteed. This implies a great advantage for the deployment on existing networks. Likewise, this concept is highly suitable for high performance switches. Intellectual Property Rights: Patent(s) applied for Spanish application number P

213 Company Profile Page 213 Russia Scientific Research Institute of Multiprocessor Computing Systems Technology Offer TO_RU_28114 Family of high-performance multiprocessor computer systems on basis of reconfigurable element base Russian scientific research institute from Taganrog has designed a number of reconfigurable computer systems (RCS) experimental models of various configurations based on FPGAs. The set of experimental models includes both small size single-board devices and systems which consist of thousands processors, and besides, series-produced systems. Partners for joint further development and implementation of the products in industry are sought Detailed description: Nowadays multiprocessor computer systems are used in various fields of science and technology and also in industry and economics. At the same time real performance of multiprocessor systems, which are oriented on traditional methods of organization of parallel calculations, often does not exceed 10 15% from the declared peak one, because it is necessary to realize a number of interprocessor exchange and memory access procedures, and besides that to synchronize sequential processes realized in processors of the system. The main reason of performance reduction is mismatch between _hard_ architecture of multiprocessor system and informational structure of wide class of solving tasks. This problem can be solved with the help of multiprocessor computer systems with _flexible_ architecture, which is programmed according to informational structure of the specific task, solving at the moment. This concept was implemented due to programmable logic integrated circuits (FPGAs) of high integration used as reconfigurable element base. Computer systems with high _real performance/peak performance_ (efficiency) and _real performance/volume_ (compact size) ratio can be designed on the basis of FPGAs. The institute has designed a family of FPGA-based RCS: - computer systems of industry level with performance 5 TFlops; - computer systems for corporations or scientific centers with performance 1 TFlops; - workstations for medium-seized companies with performance 200 GFlops; - accelerators for personal computers with performance 50 GFlops and 25 GFlops. The main computational elements of RCS family are basic modules. Circuit boards of these modules were designed with accuracy rating 5 and have 20 conductive layers. Each basic module (BM) contains computational FPGAs, distributed memory, FPGA of basic module controller, FPGAs loading and synchronization subsystems, power and cooling subsystems. Software complex, which allows programming of designed computer systems of the family has also been developed. It is known, that creation of configuration files for programming FPGAs is very complicated and requires special knowledge and skills. So the main purpose of development of the software complex for creation applied programs for RCS is significant decreasing of programming time. The main purpose of the software complex is effective realization of computationally complex fragments of tasks from various problem areas on arbitrary hardware resource of computer system. Software complex of applied programs development contains: assembler; high level programming language; integrated development environment for hardware and software solving of applied tasks; debugger of parallel programs; program interface of access to RCS computational resources; development environment of computational structures for scalable parallel-pipeline procedures synthesis;

214 library of circuit designs (IP-cores). Program access to basic modules is possible via unified program interface, which allows to use functions of loading/uploading and computations control developed using traditional programming languages (?++, Object Pascal, Java, etc.) with the help of interfaces libraries that can be added to the project. At the same time with RCS family design, infrastructure of prospective users training is created. Mass access of prospective users to informational resources and software products, designed as a result of the project, will be provided by using global computer network Internet and its services Innovative aspects / advantages: Implementation of reconfigurable element base as the basis of high-performance multiprocessor computer systems Main advantages: High efficiency, compact size, low power consumption Current state of development of the technology: Already on the market Intellectual Property Rights: Copyright protected Collaboration Details: Commercial agreement with technical assistance: Manufacturing/ subcontracting agreement: Type of partner sought: Industrial enterprises, research organisations or private companies requiring high performance computing, or hardware distributors The specific area of activity of the partner: Tasks involving processing of large amounts of data The tasks to be Joint implementation of the technology in applied solutions, distribution performed of the partner sought: Responsible IRC NO IRC

223 Company Profile Page 223 Spain SOLUCIONES INFORMATICAS ADV, S.A. Sectors: COPIERS; BOXCART; FOOD;... Activities: SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT Technology Offer Framework for software development in.net TO_ES_28342 New process for automating code production has been devised following a component-based approach. After applying this approach to production of COTS software, benefits reported by developers suggest a significant improvement in maintainability and quality as well as in cost reduction although adaptation and training requires medium-high level of effort. Detailed description: Process for design and code generation based on components - Process 1, Data model and data base definition. Starting from specifications a description is generated as a component which may be reused for application which is based on the same model. It is also possible to get this definition from an existing database. - Process 2, Generation of data components. Adopting a component-based approach within a mutilayer architecture, next step is the generation of control classes of relations between application and database. According to the proposed methodology, code generation is supported by common components which are independent of specific data base to be chosen; they will be complemented by those generated in step 1. - Process 3, User interface generation: Graphical user interface components for the presentation layer will be generated from the components generated in previous phases. Again, a series of basic components are available for the organization but developers may create more advanced ones combining basic elements. It is also possible to combine predefined styles to components to enable customization. - Process 4, Application composition: Last stage is the composition and integration of components. Here many of the advantages of following previous steps arise because developers do not need to dive in the code to generate the application. Thanks to supporting mechanism based on tools, a step-by-step process is devised and code is automatically generated. Anyway, developers have the option of changing external view of the application because several global styles may be applied to components. Automation details This component-based process for code generation adapted to a portfolio of business applications has been implemented using several tool complements added to Visual Studio environment. This enables a compact support to development where it is possible to integrate controlling and management mechanisms like configuration management of components and elements with the subsequent supporting actions. In general, all basic steps integrate Wizard-like helpers to assist developers. This enables a good standardization of code as well as better results during testing given the fact components have been exhaustively tested. All these features lead to easier maintenance

224 Innovative aspects / advantages: Automatic code generation, complete integration with Visual Studio IDE. Software applications are fully independent of de Data Base selected. Main advantages: In order to analyze impact of this initiative, developers of the company who have experienced the integration of this set of process and tool environment in their daily project practice were requested to answer an anonymous questionnaire. The sample included programmers as well as project managers with an experience in software development ranging from 2 to 23 years. Collected data are still limited because not all the technical workforce of the company has experienced the new methods in real work. Results can be summarized as follows: - 100% of respondents report reduction in effort to generate code for applications. A 48% reduction is the average of their estimation. - 70% considers this generation process have a strong impact on getting higher reliability of code whereas the others rank the improvement as light. - 85% report a high enhancement of code maintainability whereas the rest suggest a light one.

227 Company Profile Page 227 Russia Speech Technology Center, LTd Technology Offer TO_RU_28222 New Generation Text-To-Speech (TTS) Technology Russian innovation company involved in speech technology developed a new Russian text-to-speech technology. The technology generates natural speech corresponding to a given text. Natural sounding of synthesized speech is based on a combination of two modern approaches to speech synthesis: triphone concatenation and Unit Selection syntheses. This technology allows development of TTS solutions for the other languages. Authors search for venture funds or integrators oriented to the Russian market for joint commercialization of the technology. Detailed description: There are many approaches to develop text-to-speech (TTS) systems. However, until recently no naturally sounding Russian TTS was available. Triphone concatenative TTS systems that were popular several years ago provide stable but quite unnatural robotic synthesized speech. Modern Unit Selection systems sound much more natural but may contain heavily degraded and even unintelligible speech segments. Stable and natural sounding is attained on the acoustic tier by means of the hybrid nature of the technology. It is based on the Unit Selection approach complemented with the features of the triphone TTS. The technology complies with the main requirement to TTS systems: it performs reading aloud of any text, even an unconventional one (e.g. SMS, s, chats) in such a way that a listener has feeling of hearing a human voice. Texts can be voiced by different synthesized voices. Each voice is based on a particular speaker database that contains 10 hours of speech and is marked up on different tiers such as sentences, phrases, words, syllables, triphones, intonation, pauses, accents, stresses etc. Elaborate natural language processing module that performs morphologic, syntactic and semantic analyses is developed for correct stress and intonation type detection. This module along with the thoroughly marked up speech databases makes the technology unique for the Russian language. At present the technology exists as Software Development Kit (SDK) for integration to interactive voice response systems. 8 different synthesized voices are available. It is possible to modify the technology for use with other languages. Innovative aspects / advantages: The system takes into account phonetic, morphologic and grammatical features of the Russian language. Hybrid nature of the technology provides high flexibility and scalability for different computational platforms. Main advantages: Highly natural synthesized speech for any kind of text. Taking account of morphologic, syntactic and semantic features of Russian language. Correct stress detection and reading of shortenings, abbreviations and special signs.

229 Company Profile Page 229 Russia Speech Technology Center, LTd Technology Offer TO_RU_28223 Information access control technology based on voice biometrics Russian innovation company concerned with speech technology developed an information access control technology based on biometric speech verification. The technology may be applied in Web-systems and Internet, interactive selfservice systems, for access to information by telephone, in access control systems. Verification may be carried out using different voice channels: telephone, Internet (Web) etc. Authors search for venture funds or integrators for joint commercialization of the technology. Detailed description: The technology performs authentication of a person by voice. The technology is designed to control users_ access to corporate information resources using the parole phrase and the unique shape of each person_s vocal tract. It can be used independently or in combination with other access control systems. The service secures information from unauthorized access which can become possible in case password, HID (Proximity) RFID card, HASP-key, etc have been lost or handed over. The technology allows to determine not only which access card or password were used but also which person used it. Currently in alternative technologies the identification is carried out with the help of certain assigned codes. In such case not the person himself is being identified but the code assigned to him, which is the main disadvantage of this technologies. Biometric identification solves this problem and is more effective, because identification is based not on the assigned characteristics but on natural properties of human voice. The system needs only 3-5 seconds per authentication that allows user to save the time and organize the authentication in automatic mode. Dynamically changed key phrase, i.e. a user each time has to pronounce different combination of digits, improves system reliability and saves it from dictaphone's recordings or transmitting the key phrase by phone. At the same time fingerprint sensors and other costly devices are not needed for voice biometrics. Another point is processing of real-life speech in noisy conditions. The proposed technology is integrated with the technology of automatic speech enhancement that makes possible to perform verification by voice in real-life noisy environments. Innovative aspects / advantages: Voice authentication is language and accent independent. Robustness of verification to channel variability and speech compression (GSM, VoIP, ISDN). Main advantages: Natural biometric access control interface. Voice biometric technology does not call for any costly hardware. Basic usual microphone, headset or telephone is only needed for voice input. In case verification is performed over the phone, any in-built phone micro is sufficient. High verification accuracy: False Rejection Rate = 3%, False Acceptance Rate = 0.7%. Time of verification _ less than 5 seconds. Password phrase length seconds. No need to remember passwords or worry about electronic keys. Cost cuts and service improvement for call-centers (personalization of information, possibility to organize priority queues, etc.).

233 Company Profile Page 233 Russia Synergetic Systems JSC Sectors: Information technologies, artificial intelligence Activities: Software development Technology Offer TO_RU_28087 Solutions for semantic analysis and logic-analytical processing of unstructured text information Russian innovation company from Moscow offers solutions for automated processing of unstructured text files on natural languages with extraction of required objects and analysis of their correlations. Company is looking for partners for joint adaptation of the technology to specific needs and its implementation with the purpose of automation of the activities of different state and municipal organizations, corporate and individual clients Detailed description: Linguistic processor is designed for carrying out tasks demanding automatic processing of text files on natural languages: summaries, news reports, information-advertisement materials, mails etc. From text (documents) are extracted objects required by the users, their correlations and facts of participation of the objects in specific activities or events. The latter are regarded themselves as complex objects with own properties and relations. As a result an expanded semantic network of a special kind which represents its semantic structure is created based on each document. Such network is represented by XML-files. XML-files are the basis for creation of dossiers, reviews, reports etc. Another variant of their usage is automatic filling of relation databases or forming of individual knowledge bases with subsequent organization of directed search for required information (objects), including different kinds of semantic search. Main components of the processor: a) Block of lexical and morphological analysis. Extracts words and sentences from text, casts words to normal form and formats semantic network representing spatial structure of the text where word sequences, their main characteristics, starting points of sentences and spacing lines are shown. b) Block of syntax-semantic analysis. It converts semantic networks to another form representing semantic structure of the text, i.e. selected objects and their relations. Tasks of this block: - Extraction of information objects (persons, organizations, activities, their time and location etc.) from an array of documents in natural languages. - Determination of relations between objects. - Analysis of verb forms, participle and gerund forms with determination of objects_ participation in corresponding activities. - Detection of relations of activities to such objects as time and place. - Analysis of cause-effect and time relations between activities and events. c) Expert systems (ES). ES form new knowledge on the basis of semantic structure in the form of additional fragments of expanded semantic network. d) Inverse linguistic processor which converts informative portrait of the document (semantic network) into XML-file.

Sectors: Computer systems, engineering, media, security Activities: System development and installation, software development, media services and design, complex security solutions Technology Offer TO_RU_27993 Geoinformation modeling for regional management and development of territories Russian company from Moscow has developed an instrumental geoinformation software modeling solution based on computer modeling of virtual and combined reality and imported geo-data. The system may be used for region and infrastructure management, in landsurveying, architectural design, training simulators and historical and cultural segments. The company is looking for partners to market the product in EU and CIS countries and sign contractual agreements for 3D geo-system development services. Detailed description: The software complex is an integrated system for computer modelling of virtual reality as well as combined realities, which can simplify the laborious task of creating interactive multidimensional virtual worlds, based on real geospatial data like 3D models, photographs, video and topological information, extended with real world or virtual objects. This solution is primarily meant to solve the issues related to town (settlement) planning by optimizing construction, communications and infrastructure within the existing environment using the methods of situational analysis and 3D modelling. The result of such modelling is an optimal virtual model of an existing territory, based upon the input criteria and risks, that allows creating a complete regional management system in real time under the condition of continuous update and actualization of spatial and metadata objects. Besides that, the system can be used as a basis for project research and investment projects in architectural design and construction, cadastral registration and actualization of spatial data, reconstruction and visualization of virtual historic monuments, museums, restoration of demolished worlds, ancient objects as well as for development of methods and systems of edutainment (entertaining education) and construction of multidimensional reality training simulator centres. This technology allows automating (decreases volume of designer work) of the process of placing textures on vector objects of the virtual world, which is, to date, considered as a manual task. These textures can be created using digital photo and video data. This software allows a synthesis of a 3D virtual world based on fragmented information from sources such as 3D models of objects and nature, digital photo and video data, topographical and geo data. The spatial real-time model can potentially provide a fully automated traffic & transport management using high-precision positioning equipment. One of the important project components is the integration with the legally important systems of electronic document management systems, implemented at the regional identification centres integrated with E-government services. The main task of the software complex in this aspect is efficient collection, accumulation, storage and analysis of spatial data such as land/property cadastres used for cadastre cartography, land registers and efficient land resources management for their effective use within the new economic conditions. The system allows creating reports and referencing information about land users, land districts, land transactions, as well as binds the data with local electronic maps and makes certain calculations to generate reports. The system is integrated with electronic sales and marketing tools for

242 procurement of business transactions by publishing information about the objects available for sales/lease/rent. Furthermore, the system interacts with the e- document management and _one-window_ e-service, implemented under e- government. All services are integrated with the billing system that collects payments for services such as executing transactions, publishing information about objects using the sales and marketing tools or usage of WEB services for 3D visualization. Open architecture and export-import functions enable construction of complex technological chains using: - Models created with other 3D programs; - Externally connected geo and hydrodynamic modules, seismic and blast-proof, ecological and social monitoring; - Newest technical visualization and immersion functions, real-time positioning and technical vision systems; This helps to solve a wide range of government management tasks and provide stable and secure development of a region or infrastructure. The program, with its component-based modular architecture, is an integrated tool that allows construction of new generation integrated management system, consolidating the interests of government, commercial structures and each citizen, to create an integrated information and business space for their vital activities. Innovative aspects / advantages: Realization of universal distributed system combining different state and commercial structures with specific interests and privileges when working with spatial data. Integration of services, interaction with the system of electronic documents flow and billing system. Main advantages: Increased automation of the virtual reality synthesis process, decrease in labor intensity. Optimization for solution of a specific set of actual scientific-technical and socialeconomic problems. Online availability of services. An in-depth and thorough development of mathematical algorithms contributes to highly realistic visualization in real time. The technologies invested into the system automate the process of texturizing of vector objects of the virtual world _ such textures can be _imported_ from photo and video materials of real objects and regions. In this way, the system allows synthesis of 3D and virtual worlds based on the available data fragments _ 3D models, photo and video and topographical surveys, etc. Visualization speed of complex structures is 10-15% greater when compared to foreign competitor products.

246 Company Profile Page 247 Russia Tradition Group Inc. Sectors: Computer systems, engineering, media, security Activities: System development and installation, software development, media services and design, complex security solutions Technology Offer Unified Recognition & Surveillance Analytical System TO_RU_28086 Russian company from Moscow offers a unified recognition & analytical system of computer vision that allows its users to get efficient and accurate image recognition result in real time from processing large data streams where objects of various types and in varying state can be sorted and classified. The company is looking for partners with developments in the area of AI and application specific processors as well as distributing partners for implementation of its developments in CIS and EU Detailed description: At the present time, a large number of different methods and approaches to pattern recognition have been accumulated on all levels of difficulty of recognition tasks. However, the solution to each separate task in this field is strongly dependant on the application logic and requires special scientific research, which leads us away from our main task, which is the development of universal recognition system. To date, there is no sufficiently universal and affordable recognition system, which leads to the necessity of developing separate application software for each recognition task. Until now no satisfactory solution exists for recognizing random objects in random situations. With the help of the proposed solution, an integrated software system can be realized consisting of various trainable modules, where each module will solve a separate recognition task. No special software will need to be developed for separate recognition tasks, as completed system modules can be configured and trained to recognize various objects and then integrated into one system. This integrated software can be used to create commercial products of mass availability to help people with visual impairments, help automate security systems of residential and public buildings, as well as create automated systems for the transport industry in order to monitor, track vehicles and control the traffic flow. Also, through the use of widely-available modern multicore CISC, RISC, GPU processors, there is the possibility of creating a new generation of inexpensive household "smart" systems, robots and embedded learning assistants based on the developed integrated software Innovative aspects / advantages: The innovative aspect of proposed solution involves the use of a combination of descending and ascending detection techniques together with an adaptive managing semantic classifier that manages different methods and their hierarchical structures. In addition, the image processing local methods themselves have the possibility to _communicate_ with each other and make joint decisions regarding the type of object to be recognized in case neither of the independent detection techniques can provide the accuracy specified Main advantages: Main advantages: - comparatively low equipment cost - the ability to solve almost any recognition task in real-time

258 Company Profile Page 261 Spain Universidad de Alcala Sectors: Research and Education Technology Offer TO_ES_27979 Face tracking and 3D pose estimation with automatic model construction A research group from the Electronic Department of Alcalá University has developed a method for robustly tracking and estimating the 3D face pose of a person using stereo vision. The method does not need to identify the person and does not need a previous training. A face model is automatically constructed online. This method is the base of the system of monitoring of the driver and has been proved on sequences registered in a car in movement. It Also might be used in applications in which it is needed to activate mechanisms with the look (simulator, video games, systems of virtual increased reality, disability, etc). The group is interested in commercial agreements with companies of the sector of the components for the automotion, video games, virtual increased reality and disability helping systems. Detailed description: Innovative aspects / advantages: The model is formed by a set of tri-dimensional points of the face. These points are automatically selected in the first image obtained from the cameras. The face is located using Viola&Jones method, and points in the face that present adequate characteristics for tracking are found with Harris detector. Up to 30 points are used.the image patches around the 2D projections of these points on each camera are tracked on each frame, using the Simultaneous Modelling and Tracking (SMAT) algorithm. This algorithm builds a model of the changes of the appearance or texture around each point.the 3D pose is obtained from the 2D points using POSIT, redundantly for both cameras to improve robustness. Tracking may fail for some points on each frame. RANSAC is used to discard erroneous points from the estimation of the pose. After a set of correctly tracked points (inliers) is obtained, the position of the badly located points (outliers) is completed depending on the estimated pose by the inliers. Points become occluded as the head turns and can not be tracked. The system is able to robustly estimate the pose of the face in presence of turns of up to ±45º. The system is currently being developed to include additional points in the model so the working angle range covers all possible head turns (-90º to 90º).The system is able to track a driver_s face robustly in real conditions. Experimental results and an analysis of the performance are ready to be presented. For the first time, this system of computer vision is able of recognizing the orientation of the human face, independently from the user and with no need of previous training.this system is innovative in the way of fusing the three algorithms that make up the base of its functioning: SMAT, RANSAC and POSIT. To the best of our knowledge they had never been used before in that way. Main advantages: Intellectual Property Rights: This method works in real time (30 images per second) being the time of accused of every frame of 33 milliseconds.it is a very robust system that keeps on working even in situations for which the model has not been designed (sudden changes of light, partial occlusions, sudden turns of face, etc). In these cases the system works with more mistakes but without getting lost. Secret know-how The group has the secret know how of the technology

262 Company Profile Page 265 Spain Universidad de Alcala Sectors: Research and Education Technology Offer TO_ES_28024 Tools software for the strategic planning of networks of 2 nd and 3 rd generation and its extension to networks of 4 th generation LTE. A research group from Alcalá University has developed in collaboration to a research group from Cantabria University, a set of software tools for the planning of mobile networks very useful to make a network design appropriate from the point of view of total costs, so much if the planning is used for the calculation of the interconnection costs, since for strategic studies of investment on new services. Detailed description: The development consists of a set of tools under GSM-CONNECT generic name and is divided in the following parts: - Tool for the Cellular Unfolding: This tool is capable of calculating the quantity of base stations to a national level of each one of the types specified by the operator. Using an algorithm of optimization, for each zone of each city considered in the scene, this tool chooses the best of the possible BTS (considering one or several bands of frequencies). This process, repeated at a national level, provides the values previously mentioned. In addition it provides exhaustive information about the total traffic and of every service that is attended by the BTS. - Tool for the calculation of BSC_s network and the links BTS-BSC (Network of Aggregation): by means of a heuristic algorithm of selection, it is calculated among all the BTS which ones are going to be used as BSC and, depending of the type of the used BSC, how many and which ones of the remaining BTS_s will be assigned to each BSC. In addition it establishes the hierarchy network of links among them, depending of the technical elements specified by the operator (typically radio links on 2 Mbps). - The third tool consists of the calculation of the following step of the hierarchy, that is to say, the determination of the centers of mobile communication (MSC's), how many and which ones BSC_s will connect to every MSC and the necessary links. For it a heuristic algorithm similar to the previous case is applied taking into account the technical restrictions of the MSC_s that the operator works with. - The last module focuses on the dorsal network or core network: It makes the calculation of the links (with their capacities and systems) necessary among the MSC_s as well as the rest of the necessary elements in the NSS of the mobile network. Each of the tools supports on the results obtained by the previous tools. Hereby, the traffic in a link BTS-BSC depends on the calculated traffic in the tool of cellular unfolding. All the traffic in the BSC will be used later in the calculation of the MSC's and the links. Finally by means of the matrix of routing provided by the operator, the links are defined in the dorsal network. At the end of the whole process a total photography of the network is available, with the corresponding values as for the equipment in

263 every category and therefore the costs of investment. With these modules of planning the operator has a powerful tool to be able to make the corresponding strategic studies. Innovative aspects / The principal potential of these tools lies in the use of very advanced algorithms of advantages: planning of mobile networks that allow to optimized the network from the point of view of the investment that has to be done by the operator. The current commercial models are usually based on small programmes done in Excell that evidently does not have the optimum potential of these heuristic developed in languages of high-level programming. These tools provide the necessary information to the cost model LRIC Bottom Up defined by the European Commission.Operators and governments of different countries already have used the tools that are described in this document. Main advantages: - This innovation consists in a set of tools of planning of software with complex algorithms of planning that allow to study all the particular aspects of the network. - It is a model developed by Universities and underwritten by international publications (magazines and congresses) that provides an added value in the offers of the NRA.

266 Company Profile Page 270 Spain Universidad de Alcala Dpto Automatica. Ing. Sistemas Telematicos Sectors: Ethernet switches, Information Technologies Activities: Computer networks research, Information Technologies Technology Offer Data plane Ethernet Switch TO_ES_28256 Detailed description: Fastpath[UD] is a natural evolution of the transparent bridge paradigm to implement near shortest path bridging (or strictly shortest, depending on the loop prevention mechanism). Opposite to current Advanced Ethernet Switch proposals, is not an hibrid device combining a layer two router and an Ethernet switch. Instead of interchanging topology information with a link state routing protocol, short unicast paths and source rooted multicast trees are built directly in the data plane without any ancillary routing protocol, just by controlled flooding (to bridges or to hosts) of an on-demand or periodically broadcasted beacon frame. The fastest unicast path in transmission direction, among the paths permitted by the loop prevention mechanism, gets selected at every bridge. This path is then confirmed as a bidirectional, symmetric path, after reception of the unicast reply frame from the destination host or bridge(s). In this way, unicast paths and/or source rooted spanning trees are set up directly in the data plane. The proposed FastpathUD protocol prevents loops by enforcing a simple and limited prohibition of some turns of frames at bridges (down-up turns only, around one fifth of the total possible turns), instead of the full link prohibition applied by the spanning tree protocol. Throughput is close to that of shortest path protocols. Alternative mechanisms for loop prevention may be used to attain full shortest paths performance. The resulting architecture requires zero-configuration, uses standard Ethernet frame format, relies on standard Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, is fully transparent to hosts with or without frame encapsulation, and compatible with 802.1D bridges in core-island mode Innovative aspects / advantages: First simple data plane transparent Ethernet switch not requiring an additional routing protocol on layer two. Most current proposals for Advanced Ethernet Bridges and Routing Bridges use a link state protocol (IS-IS) to compute shortest paths or multiple shortest path spanning trees. Link state protocols like IS-IS are mature and have good performance, but require full topology knowledge by every node and high computation of shortest paths. They also require synchronization mechanisms between the bridges before setting ports in forwarding state to adequately prevent transient loops. Main advantages: Full network infrastructure utilization. No blocked links, opposite to spanning tree protocol. Simple, distributed algorithm. High throuhgput. Near shortest paths using Up/Down loop prevention. Fulll shortest path with other loop prevention mechanisms. Potential strategic value of internationalizing the patent. IEEE LAN MAN S. Committee (IEEE )and IETF are currently standardizing Advanced Ethernet Switches and Routing Bridges (TRILL WG).

272 Company Profile Page 276 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Know-how/ expertise KHE_ES_28134 Experimentally-backed decision making for software engineering projects Software Engineering technologies are not being adequately assessed, i.e. practitioners do not exactly know whether or not a technology is effective, and, if they do, they cannot be sure how effective it is and what its applicability limits are. This lack of proper assessment is seriously limiting industry_s capability to produce competitive and quality software, especially in the case of small- or medium-sized enterprises with limited resources. Experimental Software Engineering is a branch of software engineering which pursues to produce reliable information for practitioners about which technologies are worth to use in software development projects. We use empirical methods (experiments and case studies) to assess the effectiveness of arbitrary software technologies. Individual assessments are later combined to make recommendations aimed to improve industrial practice. Detailed description: Since the very dawn of computing history, software engineering has endeavored to provide developers with methods and techniques, generally termed technologies, to improve software construction (produce better quality software, reduce development costs, etc.). Improvements in product construction are achieved by introducing either new technology or process changes. To properly decide on the introduction of novelties to improve production in engineering disciplines, not only does the technology need to exist, but it also needs to be tested and assessed to find out its applicability conditions. Unfortunately, most of software technologies have been neither tested, evaluated nor classified adequately, i.e. we do not exactly know whether or not a technology is effective, and, if we do, we cannot be sure how effective it is or what its applicability limits are; nor can we predict its effects. Because this information is missing, technology selection for and decision making on software production tends to be based on suppositions and subjective opinions, rather than on objective facts as is required of an engineering discipline. There is more than enough evidence to show that this shortage of information is seriously limiting industry_s capability to produce competitive and quality software. The opportunity cost of making the wrong decision due to the shortage of appropriate information can be exceptionally high and seriously damage business competitiveness, especially in the case of SMEs with limited resources. To be able to select a technology, it must have been tested and evaluated to get knowledge on its strengths, weaknesses and applicability limits. Experimental Software Engineering takes a rigorous engineering approach to gather this information. This approach outputs data about a technology by assessing it under different conditions in experimental studies and industrial case studies. The data from several studies are used to increase knowledge about the behavior of the technology under study. Technology assessments will improve industrial practice by providing software organizations with support to make informed decisions about the type of software technology to use. This will give these organizations a major competitive advantage, furnishing them with a predictable software process (as the effects of

273 the technology used on software quality will have been experimentally validated). This will be mirrored by greater development efficiency and productivity. Innovative aspects / advantages: Experimentation, along with process and product measurement, is the only alternative to verify the effectiveness and efficacy of software technologies. Even if a technology (say: inspections) is considered useful by the software engineering community, this is not enough evidence to guarantee that inspections will be efficient and effective in a given company. Experimentation provides the quantitative data required to make such assessment. Main advantages: - Quantitative assessment of software technologies_ efficacy and effectiveness - Rigorous decision-making in software development projects.

286 Company Profile Page 291 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27957 Method of transmitting multimedia files The two traditional forms of transmission of multimedia material are by streaming and by transferring files. In the first case, the quality of the received image is determined both by the speed of the transmission line and by errors in the channel. In the second, restrictions on the communications line have influence in the time required to perform the transfer. This technology is based on the transfer of audiovisual materials on files with the retransmission of erroneous blocks which are regarded as vital for a correct reproduction of the images. Detailed description: The technology is based on allowing multimedia data packages to pass through different nodes, even if erroneous; then, it is indicated that the package has noncorrected errors. These packages are regenerated at the nodes, with their proper checksum, and are transmitted again through the network. When these packages arrive, the receiver may -or may not- detect and rebuild the parts of the blocks that is corrupted, trying to extract maximum information from the damaged blocks. Data obtained, reconstructed or not, are stored with the information of the damaged blocks, so a quality control of information can be done. When the quality of the material received is less than specified, that is, impossible to reproduce, a retransmission of the damaged most important blocks will be requested. Innovative aspects / advantages: Creation of a new type of traffic at networks, enabling "unreliable" copies of files. For certain applications it would not be feasible, but for multimedia, it would become a loss of quality. Main advantages: Increased speed of file transfers and reduction of traffic at networks.

These keys can be used to protect data in flight when performing remote database synchronizations. Other possibilities would be securing voice over IP communications or secure remote backups. Detailed description: Quantum Key Distribution solves the problem of secure key transport between the ends of a quantum link. The keys thus shared can be used to perform symmetric key cryptography; they can be interfaced with key management systems allowing for a variety of tasks. Securing Remote database synchronization, voice over IP or remote backups are a few of the possibilities. The technology offer has been codeveloped together with Telefónica Investigación y Desarrollo. Innovative aspects / advantages: Quantum Key Distribution is a novel technology. It has several characteristics that set it apart from conventional key distribution systems. As a basic technique, the laws of nature are the ones that guarantee the secrecy of the key. No computational complexity assumptions apply here. Hence, long term secrecy is easier to achieve under this paradigm. As a technology, it is based on optical devices that are harder to attack with conventional techniques. On the practical side, it eliminates the risks and costs associated to master key updates and provide a continuous supply of fresh and high quality key material. Its basic properties also allow to raise an alarm in case of attacks to the line. Main advantages: Quantum Key Distribution offers a continuous supply of high quality keys for symmetric cryptography purposes. It is also a low maintenance system in the sense that, after installation, no human intervention is needed to change master keys or increase the entropy in the system. The high quality of the key is kept over time and no degradation occurs because of the repetitive use of the same or derived key with big amounts of data. The system is also backward and forward secure since, if an attacker cracks the key used to encrypt a data packet, no information about the ciphering of other data packets, neither before nor after the cracked packet, is leaked. Other practical advantage is its intrinsic capability of detecting intrusions in the communications channel.

293 Company Profile Page 298 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27965 Information system for smart cards without contacts A research group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed a system of reception-emission of information for smart cards without contacts that allows the use of very low frequency fields (below 100 khz). Thus, screening problems of the present techniques are avoided. The research group is looking for the licensing of the patent. Detailed description: The system is made up of three modules: - Emitter System. This system consists of a generator of a variable and alternate magnetic field with any frequency minor to 100 khz and with a null field zone where to locate the receiver system without it saturating. - Receiver System. A magnetic tuneable sensor is used; it directly detects the alteration of the magnetic field produced by the card when it is tuned at the frequency of the emitter system. In order to avoid the saturation of the sensor, it is located in the null field zone of the generator; thus, the sensor cannot detect the field produced by the emitter system but is able to measure other fields of the same frequency but with a phase difference, for instance, the field due to the presence of a magnetic material magnetized by the emitter system. - Smart card without contacts. When frequency is reduced, the field produced by the circuit of card is null at a very short distance of it, so in principle the system would not be valid. To avoid this problem a magnetic core surrounded by a spiral winding is introduced in the card. The field produced by the winding is high enough to alter the magnetization of the core without needing a resonant circuit. This magnetization can be detected by the receiver system. In addition, the induced electromotive force is used to feed an integrated circuit in the card. This circuit can open and close the winding, modifying the magnetization of the core and thus being able to send information. Innovative aspects / advantages: The technology is the only system that allows the use of cards without contacts at very low frequencies, which avoids screening problems caused by induced currents. Some of its main innovating characteristics are the following: - It measures the magnetic field produced by the card, not the electromotive force induced by this field. - A resonant circuit in the very card is not needed. Main advantages: The use of magnetic materials electrodeposited to create the core of the card and the use of PCB planar technology in the card and the receiver systems, could suppose a considerable decrease of costs and a simple industrial development thanks to its easy manufacture. These cards replace low frequency systems (~ 100 khz) in applications where screening by induced currents are a problem. They also can replace high frequency systems (~ 10 MHz).

295 Company Profile Page 300 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27966 Method for reducing excess noise in electronic devices and monolithic integrated circuits A research group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed a method for reducing excess noise in electronic devices and monolithic integrated circuits. The research group is looking for the licensing of the patent. Detailed description: According to the theory basis for this technology, transverse currents at the overlayer going from devices to substrate and backwards, imply an electrical noise ([KT/C noise] in thermal equilibrium and ([kt/c+shot noise] for biased devices) that is transferred to the devices by a backgating field effect. Thus the present technology consists on reducing or eliminating these currents by setting up a thermodynamic screen underneath the mentioned electronic devices. In this way transverse currents generating excess noise, that are increased by the biasing of the devices itself, are weakened, which is an important and novel aspect of this theory. This technology provides a low cost and simple method for noise reduction in electronic devices. Additionally it is a radically new method that is based on appropriate consideration of parasitic or unwanted devices that exist in actual devices, and have been oversight until now. Consequently this method is radically different from those based on mainstream theories for excess noise. Innovative aspects / advantages: This technology reduces low frequency noise in electronic devices employing a radically novel method consisting of blocking, by a thermodynamic screen located beneath the electronic devices, the electrical currents existing between such devices and the layers underneath. The method is especially interesting for weak signal amplifiers and for mixer devices, where the high level of low frequency noise is moved (upconverted) to other frequency bands introducing disturbances and degrades in the system features. Main advantages: This technology is a new, simple and low-cost method for noise reduction in electronic devices. By using an additional technological step during the manufacture of the device layers, as diffusion or implantation process, excess noise reduction is obtained. This additional process, which is commonly used in monolithic integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing, is relatively low cost in proportion to the total cost of ICs and the firm using it would obtain a product with better performances than competitors.

297 Company Profile Page 302 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27967 Printed circuit technology multilayer planar reflector A research group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed planar reflector antennas using multi-layer printed technology for terrestrial and satellite communications. The planar reflector is made up of several stacked dielectric sheets with printed arrays of conductive patches, which are implemented by conventional photo-etching techniques. The research group is looking for the licensing of the patent. Detailed description: The technology consists of a planar reflector, or reflectarray, made up of two or more layers of dielectric sheets with printed arrays of rectangular metallic patches, which is designed to generate a collimated beam when illuminated by a feed, in a similar way to that of a parabolic reflector. The reflectarray can also be designed to generate a conformal beam, as an alternative to the shaped reflectors used in Direct Broadcast Satellites (DBS). To achieve the collimation or shaping of the beam, a localized control is required in the phase of the reflected field, which is obtained by varying the dimensions of the metalisations. For the design of the reflectarray, a code has been implemented in FORTRAN, which adjusts all the patch dimensions to achieve the desired phase distribution, and generates the photo-mask in AUTOCAD. The manufacturing technology of each layer of the planar reflector, composed by printed rectangular metalisations over layers of dielectric material, is based on conventional photo-etching techniques used in the production of printed circuits, and can be implemented using space qualified materials, as those used for dichroic subreflectors. The technology permits realisations with a higher bandwidth and electrical characteristics less sensitive to manufacturing tolerances. Possible applications of this technology are the following: - Use of the planar reflector as multiple beam antenna. - Construction of folding reflectors, useful when reflectors of great size are required, that must be folded for transportation, or folding reflectors for mobile equipment. The multilayer planar reflector can be constructed in four or more pieces, that can be piled up for their transport and assembled. The assembly is not critical, since there is no electrical contact between the printed patches. The folded reflectors also have an important field of application in the reflectors on board of satellites, so that the reflector can go fold in launching and unfold once in space. - Procedure of design of multilayer reflectarray in a certain frequency band. - Use of the planar multilayer reflector as polarizer. - Use as shapedl beam reflector. The research team that has developed this technology has an wide experience in research that includes analytical and numerical techniques for the analysis and the design of waveguide structures, frequency selective surfaces and multilayer printed arrays. Innovative aspects / - Compared to single layer reflectarrays, the multi-layer configuration permits advantages: realisations with a superior bandwidth

298 - An adjustment can be made in the dimensions of each element of reflectarray to improve the behavior in all the working frequency band. - The multi-layer configuration improves significantly the two main limitations of single layer printed reflectarrays: the high sensitivity to manufacturing tolerances and the narrowband behaviour. Main advantages: - In reflectarrays, as being fed in the same way than in reflectors, the disadvantages of microstrip arrays due to the feeding network disappear, that is to say, design and manufacture are simplified, losses are reduced and the antenna efficiency improves. - Compared to reflectors, reflectarrays have the advantages of their low profile, a smaller distortion and low levels of cross-polarization, at the expense of a narrower frequency band. - Reflectarrays do not require precision higher than 0,1 mm, permitting a significant reduction in both cost and manufacturing times. - As a planar structure, the reflectarrays can be used as deployable reflectors in both terrestrial and satellite communications with smaller weight and volume than conventional reflectors. - Relating to electrical characteristics, reflectarrays have less polarization levels than conventional reflectors, and can be used in dual-polarization applications, as an alternative to _dual-grid_ reflectors.

299 Company Profile Page 304 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27968 Reflecting flat aerial in imprinted technology with improved bandwidth and separation of polarizations A research group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed a technology related to a flat reflector antenna composed by an array of radiating printed elements, as an alternative to parabolic or shaped reflectors, usually used in radar systems, satellite and terrestrial communications, in both the terrestrial and flight segments. The research group is looking for the licensing of the patent. Detailed description: The technology is a flat reflector, or reflectarray, which incorporates clusters with several parallel printed dipoles in the same unit cell and in the same layer, in order to achieve a similar effect to having several layers of metallizations. The elements of reflectarray are positioned in a reticule, each element occupying a cell of that reticule. Each element is composed of two or more parallel dipoles with different dimensions, and they are printed on a sheet of dielectric material above a ground plane. A primary object of this technology is a planar reflector (also called reflectarray), in printed technology with several parallel dipoles in the same layer and in the same cell. This reflector reflects the electromagnetic field of linear polarization, with the electric field in the direction of dipoles, from a feeder, forming a shaped beam with a specific direction and frequency. Reciprocally, the reflector receives a beam with a specific direction and frequency and reflects the linear polarization field, with the electric field in the direction of dipoles, focusing on the focal point where the feeder is. To achieve the desired radiation diagram, the reflected field in each element is adjusted by changing the length of the dipoles. The reflective element in each cell consists of two or more dipoles, printed on a sheet of dielectric material that situated at a certain distance from a metal sheet, which acts as a ground plane. The dielectric sheet with printed dipoles and the ground plane can be separated by air or other sheet of dielectric material, called separator.. The element configuration is given, then, by the number of dipoles, n, their positions and the relationship between their lengths. The element is characterized by the phase of its reflection coefficient depending on the length of dipoles, calculated in different frequencies. Adequately selecting the separation of dipoles and the relationship between lengths, a lineal variation of the phase is achieved depending on the length of these, with a margin greater than 360º, impossible to be achieved with a single dipole per cell. Other objects are: a reflectarray for circular polarization, a multilayer reflectarray for linear, dual or circular polarization, using in each layer several parallel dipoles. An important characteristic of the parallel-dipole reflectarray with regard to single layer of varying-sized patches is the increase of frequency band of operation because of their improved phase response as a function of the resonant length of dipoles. Another particularity is its low level of coupling between polarizations, because there is no electrical contact between the dipoles of the two polarizations, and therefore, these reflectarray show lower levels of cross-polarized than other types

300 of reflectarrays. Therefore, the synthesis of radiation patterns can be done independently for each polarization. This simplifies the design process and allows to design a reflectarray with different radiation patterns in each polarization, generating collimated o shaped beams in different directions. The reflectarray introduces more degrees of freedom, the lengths of dipoles in two layers, and it allows adjusting the required phases in different frequencies, to design multifrequency or higher band reflectarrays, with only two layers. It can be constructed in several flat panels to be folded for transport and subsequently deployed. In addition, the reflector surface can be adapted to existing structures, such as facades of buildings, panels in communications satellites. It can be used as a reflector for dual polarization with a better level of isolation between polarizations than conventional reflectors and other reflectarrays. Innovative aspects / The incorporation of several parallel dipoles with lengths close to resonance in the advantages: same layer and reflectarray cell, increases the phase-shift introduced in the field to values higher than 360º, required in the design of reflectarrays, as well as a more lineal phase behaviour, because the phase is controlled by the lengths of different resonant elements (dipoles). The result is a similar effect than the one obtained for multilayer reflectarrays, but using a single layer. Main advantages: The antenna can be built in materials qualified for space. It is, therefore, an alternative to reflectors onboard satellites. In particular, to _dual gridded_ reflectors, used when a small crossed level of polarization is necessary. They also represent an alternative to multilayer printed reflectarrays with rectangular patches, because they have a better performance for cross polarization and they simplify the manufacturing process thanks to the reduction in the number of layers. Current state of development of the technology: Available for demonstration field tested Intellectual Property Rights: Patent(s) granted Collaboration Details: Licence agreement: Type of partner sought: This technology can be applied to the manufacture of antennas in radar applications and terrestrial and satellite communications. The research group is thus interested in contacting with companies from industry of telecomm or space (antenna manufacturer for civilian or military communications) for the licensing of the patent, in order to designing, manufacturing and testing of a demonstrator for a particular application.

303 Company Profile Page 309 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27973 OntoFusion: Heterogeneous databases integration based on ontologies (OntoDataClean, OntoAnnotator, Mapping Tool) Maojo's research group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed a system based on ontologies for distributed and heterogeneous databases integration which facilitates the homogeneous information retrieval, providing unified access to a set of remote relational databases called OntoFusion. The OntoDataClean system facilitates databases enquiries offering a previous and transparent-for-end-user data preprocessing. Tool called OntoAnnotator aims to automatically construct logic schemes for nonstructured sources. Mapping Tool enables the mapping of a database with ontology in a semiautomatic process. The research group is looking for the licensing of this software. Detailed description: OntoFusion system consists of a set of programmes targeted to distributed and heterogeneous database integration. Figure 1 shows an example of a potential utilization scenario of OntoFusion system. As can be seen in figure 1, in this scenario there are a series of hospitals and medical and genetic research centres placed in different locations of the globe which have databases with biomedical information. The main purpose of OntoFusion system in this scenario would be to achieve these databases integration so that they can be consulted by researchers in the biomedical community. It is worth clarifying that this software can be used for integrating any type of databases _not only biomedical databases_ without any amendment. Each one of the programmes making up this collection or _suite_ of programmes plays a different role in OntoFusion system. It should be noted that, although all programmes making up this _suite_ function as a whole in OntoFusion, they must be considered as independent programmes, as they can operate autonomously. The following is a brief description of each one of these programmes and their role within the global context. OntoDataClean aims to facilitate databases enquiries offering a previous and transparent-for-end-user data preprocessing. OntoDataClean is able to carry out a series of database cleanings. These cleanings would be specified on an ontology, thus enabling a more intuitive process by the person in charge of defining them. OntoDataClean is also able to help the person in charge of generating the ontology with a series of _suggestions_ that facilitate his work, therefore carrying out different analysis of the database desired to be cleaned. All these functionalities would be offered through a simple interface accessible from a web page. OntoAnnotator aims to automatically construct logic schemes for non-structured sources, so that it receives a collection of texts (with an non-structured source) as input, giving back a logic scheme, (a data model) similar to that of structured sources.

304 Mapping process carried out by the Mapping Tool results in a function between a data set defined by a physical scheme and another data set defined by a virtual scheme, assigning one or more elements of the second data set to the elements of the first data set. Innovative aspects / advantages: OntoFusion: Use of ontologies for integrating heterogeneous databases. Use of technologies based on web and web 2.0 services (semantics). OntoDataClean: Integration of requests (over traditional integration of schemes) for distributed sources_ preprocessing and integration. OntoAnnotator: facilitates a graphical interface compared to traditional navigation in text mode offered by traditional systems (UMLS), the software is based on an original research work in which text mining techniques are used to convert nonstructured databases (textual) into structured databases (traditional). This enables the integration between both types of sources. Mapping Tool: creation of correspondence ontologies for unifying heterogeneous databases. Main advantages: OntoFusion: maintenance of a distributed approach by unifying a set of databases using, therefore, ontologies enabling access to updated data at any time and without having to download sources periodically.

306 Company Profile Page 312 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_27974 A multi-version cache providing snapshot isolation for replicated and nonreplicated systems The invention provides a cache system for application servers in multi-tier transactional systems that enables consistent caching for snapshot isolationbased databases such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, Firebird, and SQL Server. It enables scalable replication of both the application server and database thanks to avoiding read-write conflicts due to the use of snapshot isolation. Detailed description: The invention consists of two parts. The first one is a cache that enables an application server (e.g. a J2EE one) to work consistently with snapshot isolationbased databases such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, Firebird and SQLServer (the first three only support snapshot isolation). Current application servers lose consistency when used with the above databases. The second part extends the cache to a replicated system to provide both high availability and scalability. The replication method is novel. It takes pairs of application server and database and replicates this unit. The database is local to the application server and is not aware of replication (it is a regular centralized database). The replication logic is encapsulated in the application server, so the approach once applied to an application server it works with any database. The approach provides high availability and scalability. The invention has been exercised on an open source J2EE application server, JOnAS, and the performance and scalability evaluated with the industrial benchmark SPEC AppServ designed to measure the performance of J2EE application servers. Innovative aspects / advantages: Cache coherence for multi-tier applications (e.g. J2EE environment or cache+database such as Oracle coherence and JBoss Cache). The replicated cache allows obtaining a scalable and highly available solution for the replication of multi-tier architectures overcoming the inherent limits of solutions based on serializability and session replication solutions in which the database is shared by application server replicas becoming a performance bottleneck and single point of failure. Main advantages: Among the main competitive advantages are: - Cache coherence for multi-tier systems on top of snapshot isolation databases such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, Firebird and SQL Server (e.g. J2EE or cache products such as Oracle coherence and JBoss cache). - Increased availability and scalability for multi-tier architectures and cache solutions.

312 Company Profile Page 320 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28019 Method of space positioning of cylindrical objects by means of analysis of images Gómez Aguilera's research group has developed a method of space positioning of cylindrical objects by means of analysis of images. It is thought initially for its application in the medical sector, specifically in the field of minimum invasion surgery (laparoscopy). The research team is interested in keeping in touch with companies of the medical sector, artificial vision or robotics to license the applied patent. Detailed description: One of the main research interests of the Biomedical Engineering and Telemedicine Group of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid are the computer assisted surgery and advanced medical image visualisation. As a result, this group has developed a method to determine the space position of a cylindrical object based on the processing of the image caught by only one camera. This new method only needs the information of the video images caught by the camera, its field of view and the diameter of the cylinder. The 3D position of the cylindrical object is obtained by an analysis of its cross section and the edges of the cylinder projected on the caught image. This method is very useful in the field of laparoscopy surgery (which usually uses cylindrical devices) with three applications: the automatic analysis of operations to obtain evaluation parameters of them; the applications of increased reality to guide the surgeon; the computer assisted intelligent systems of surgery. In addition, this method of positioning can be useful in other industrial sectors as industrial production, control or robotics. Innovative aspects / advantages: The most outstanding innovative aspect of this method of cylindrical objects localization is that it determines the position of any point of the cylinder analyzing, exclusively, the sequences of images caught by only one camera. Thus, the method can estimate the 3D components using 2D information of the monoscopical images. In addition, it does not need any additional element in the scene, for example, marking (as it happens in some position sensors) which is very interesting in the field of minimum invasion surgery. Main advantages: This method solves the disadvantages of the traditional localization sensors thanks to use monoscopical images and do not need to use any additional element in the scene. It eliminates the complexity of the use of the mechanical sensors, the problems of interferences with metallic objects of the electromagnetic sensors as well as the necessity of optical sensors of having a clean field of view without obstacles. Current state of Intellectual Property Rights: Development phase laboratory tested Patent(s) granted

313 Spanish patent granted in Comments about market The application of this method is especially suitable in the medical sector and, in applications: particular, in the field of the minimum invasion surgery (laparoscopy) because it usually uses cylindrical devices. Besides, in the sector of industrial production the application of this method could be suitable to determine the position of cylinders, for example, the cylindrical arms of production lines to improve the precision of the cylinders movements and lowering costs (the cost of one camera).

318 Company Profile Page 326 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28041 Stress detection biometric system Biometric systems provide with an outstanding security frame to those environments which require a more reliable access. However, situations were genuine users are used as a "key" to access the system represent the most threatening scenario. A stress detection system provides a solution frame for this situation, by detecting the state of mind of the individual, endowing the whole system with certain intelligence to elucidate whether such an individual is under a stress situation as robbery, forgery and the like. Detailed description: A stress detection system first will acquired the biometric information from the individual, in order to make an enrollment. The acquisition process will consist of two tasks, which will involve cognitive operations (such as mathematical operations). These two situations will be compared to a third situation which regards the state of mind of the user when he/she is calm, or under no stress conditions. Such an operation will allow the system to infer how differ those biometric features from base situation and stress situation. Gathering all this previous information, a template is arisen in order to contrast posterior acquisitions, and elucidate to what extend an individual is under stress. Obviously, that template is strongly associated to each individual. Therefore, first of all an identification process must be carried out to identify the individual. As a result of these operations, the stress detection system will come up with a number between 0 and 1, stating to what extend an individual is under stress. Notice that indicating a degree for stress is a difficult task, even for psychologists. Innovative aspects / advantages: The system endowed with more intelligence since the system is able not only to identify people but also to decide and infer the intentions of the individuals who are accessing the system. Innovation is present in the moment the system is able to elucidate whether an individual is forced to do a certain operation, or if an individual is performing forgery. This intelligence has a wide range of fields which can take benefit of it: Domotics could obtain a more clever home, able to understand the state of mind of the residents, Videogames could benefit from the advantages of knowing if the player is under stress, nervous, feeling anxiety... Innovation is present since the moment that this system will provide "feelings" and "empathy" to machines. Main advantages: Main advantage regards the increment in security this systems provides, since current biometric systems will benefit of this additional approach. Accesing will not depend on who you are, or what you know to enter the system, but on your intentions too.

319 Main advantage is related to the fast algorithm and outstanding accuracy this system provides, since the stress is more accurately detected than even by psychologist, and furthermore, this detection is done instantly. Moreover, the system is able to follow the changes produced in the state of mind of the user, so that deceiving the system is almost impossible. In other words, if an individual is going through a stressing period of time, the system will detect this fact, and will allow the access normally, since despite of being under stress, this stress can be considered as a part of the individual, in other words, there is not an additional agent producing this stress. This latter detection is actually the main aim of this biometric system.

We have a new intelligent system for content flow personalization over mobile television environments, used mainly for personalized advertisement, which could be further tailored to other environments such as digital terrestrial television. Detailed description: The system is divided into two main applications one in the mobile of the user and the other on a server. The user logs in the application stored in his mobile, and then he can watch broadcasted TV over DVB-H. While the user is watching the TV the system tracks user_s interaction and ask for some personalized content, to the server, in order to shown it during the next commercial cut and stores it in the terminal_s memory. When the commercial cut arrives the system swaps the advertisements broadcasted with the content stored in the terminal. At the end of the session the mobile sends the collected data to the server. On the server side the information is processed and the users_ profiles are updated in order to select the advertisement that fits better to each user. This system_s aim is to improve user experiences by providing targeted content according to their preferences. Before the user began to watch TV on his mobile, he has to identify himself. After identifying, the system gets track of user_s interaction, and makes a profile of the user. With this profile the system chooses the best fitting content and sends it to the user_s terminal in order to swap this content with the broadcasted one, when the advertisements are shown. The system is divided into three main modules, the user_s application where the multimedia content is shown and user_s behaviour is tracked, a module where this data is stored and treated in order to update users_ profiles and select an advertisement of his interest and the last module is where advertisers and campaign managers can design a campaign. Innovative aspects / advantages: It allows presenting personalized content over broadcasted channel without users_ interaction. Manage a dynamic profile for each user.

325 Company Profile Page 333 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28127 Automatic coding rule validation using logic programming. Programming languages such as C or C++ remain popular in industry, in spite of their many notoriously hazardous features and their permissiveness with dubious programming practices. This is mainly due to the high availability of development tools and well trained programmers. Besides, specific portability, compatibility or interoperability concerns may make them the languages of choice for a wide range of applications, even critical ones. To even up the reliability and security of C or C++ programs with that of software written in higher-level languages _ with type-safe execution, automatic garbage collection, etc. _ it is a common practice to impose a set of coding rules, which define a subset of the language that exclude its more error-prone features and increases the static guarantees of the software produced. Several standard coding rule sets for industrial applications have been proposed, such as MISRA-C (for C), HICPP (C++), JavaCard (Java), etc. The Babel Research Group at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed a platform for the automatic checking of coding rules integrated with the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), which gives it the potential to analyze code written in the most used high level programming languages, such as C, C++, Java, Ada, Fortran, etc. The platform includes a domain-specific language (CRISP) for the definition of new coding rules at a high level. Detailed description: Our platform for the automatic validation of coding rules combines the power of the GCC platform with the flexibility of logic programming and incorporates several decades of academic research in program analysis. A high-level, purely declarative language (CRISP, for Coding Rules in Sugared Prolog) is used to specify coding rules, that is, patterns of code that should not be present in our application. CRISP specifications are concise, logically clear and completely decoupled from any low level detail of the checking engine. CRISP is intended to be used by expert programmers in order to define new coding rule sets for a given organisation. CRISP is based on a relational query language and can be used to define rules for a variety of programming languages, thanks to a suite of language specific toolkits that include the basic relations for C, C++, Java, etc. At the moment, our platform runs on the GCC, the most widely used compiler collection. This means that dealing with C, C++, Java, Ada or Fortran is relatively easy, as all of them share a common intermediate representation. GCC is very stable and also in continuous growth thanks to the funding of the biggest IT companies. Both the coding rules written in CRISP and the internal representation of the source code get translated into Prolog rules in a common knowledge base, on which an automated deduction engine is run in order to detect coding rule violations and provide the end users with detailed information on the causes of the violations. Also, the knowledge base can be used to feed static code analyzers that can discover additional properties of the source code. The results of these analyses

326 are fed back to the common knowledge base allowing for an increased rule validation capability. Innovative aspects / advantages: The use of logic programming and the possibility of defining new coding rules in a high level description language are two features new to this kind of systems. Main advantages: There are currently a number of tools for the automatic checking of coding rules, but all of them share several common disadvantages, namely: they are expensive, closed _ that is, non extensible _ and worst of all, the end user has no guarantee on the actual meaning of the rules being checked. The first issue has restricted the use of these tools to sectors with highly demanding reliability requirements, like aerospace and the medical industry. We expect our technology to be available to other kind of companies. Secondly, many engineering companies have developed their own in-house coding rule sets, for which no commercial tool is expected to give support. Our platform is the first set of tools intended to be extensible in order to define new sets of rules, unlike existing commercial tools that offer no, or extremely difficult (like Klocwork) possibilities for customization. Finally, coding rules written in CRISP have a clear logical reading, which means that the end user knows exactly what the tool is actually checking. This is not always clear in the commercial, proprietary tools. Current state of development of the technology: Available for demonstration field tested Intellectual Property Rights: Others (registered design, plant variety right, etc) CRISP is open source software and intellectual rights remain on the researchers' side. Web link to present innovative product: Comments about market Our platform is specifically intended for increasing the reliability of industrial or applications: safety-critical software. It has been tested on a variety of open-source C++ projects showing very good performance and scalability. For example, it can analyze the Qt sources (500 KLOC) in a few seconds. It has also been tested on critical software provided by industrial partners in the Eureka/ITEA project GGCC (Global GNU Compiler Collection), such as Bertin, Telefónica I+D, among others. The ability to query source code in order to detect complex patterns can also be used as a tool for refactoring code in very large projects.

328 Company Profile Page 336 Spain Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Technology Offer TO_ES_28128 Fuzzy Logic Programming: Simple and expresive tools for fuzzy reasoning, fuzzy knowledge representation and searching with soft constraints. Real life is not crisp. Things are not white or black, they have levels of grey. Information is usually incomplete. Criteria are in general subjective. Our search criteria are usually more expressive that the possibilities that the tools (that query the web or consult databases) offer us. The Babel Research Group at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid has developed several tools (Rfuzzy) which provide a fuzzy reasoner that can be used to model problems with fuzzy components (i.e. to represent information that is not completely defined, that is not crisp, that include uncertainty, etc.), to implement fuzzy rules based on truth values, and also to query conventional data bases (or searching the internet) using flexible queries based on, common, fuzzy concepts (as great, cheap, quite big, etc.). Detailed description: Rfuzzy is a fuzzy logic programming environment implemented on top a Prolog compiler. It can be installed on any operative system (Linux, Windows,...). It is implemented using constraints over real numbers which provides a very convenient way of handling continuous functions that represent fuzzy concepts (big, young, cheap, good, close, far, etc.) Rfuzzy syntax is very simple but it provides a huge expressiveness. Innovative aspects / advantages: There were some other fuzzy logic systems but most of them were less expressive that RFuzzy. Only our previous Fuzzy Prolog system was more expressive that RFuzzy in its truth value representation (union of intervals instead of real numbers) and constraints instead of concrete data in the answers of the queries. Fuzzy Prolog was a first, research oriented tool of which RFuzzy can be seen as a practical successor. In comparison, RFuzzy is much more interesting for commercial applications because of its simplicity in the representation of data and the constructiveness of its answers. Regarding expressiveness, RFuzzy has types (so that, constructive answers can be provided to the queries), has default values (so that, it can handle incomplete information that is so common), can represent continuous functions (so that, fuzzy concepts over infinite domains can be used), has a logic-like syntax very simple and intuitive for the user to represent fuzzy rules and databases queries. Main advantages: RFuzzy lets us to model fuzzy information because we can include truth values as data in our database. We can define fuzzy functions by enumeration and using a especial syntax for fuzzy continuous functions. RFuzzy lets us to represent fuzzy reasoning as simple logic rules that can model, not only the concept of truth value and the aggregator operators that are used to calculate it, but also the concept of credibility that assigns a value to the effectiveness of the rule. RFuzzy lets us to query a regular databases using fuzzy concepts that are not satisfied in a binary way. Concepts with a truth value, a value degree (as big, expensive, quite fast, too old, etc.). Moreover, RFuzzy lets us to constrain the truth value in the queries, so that we can query for the elements of the database that are _better_, _bigger_, etc. and we obtain constructive answers with the

329 individuals that satisfy the queries and the truth value of satisfaction. RFuzzy can be modified easily to be adapted to the needs of a problem or client.

As participants in the European research project ProTest our solution focuses on property-based development of systems. Systems and subsystems are characterised using high-level properties, from which low-level tests are derived, or which are checked directly using a model checking tool. In particular we focus on the development of reliable systems in the Erlang/OTP programming language, which combines functional programming with clean extensions for concurrent and distributed programming. Moreover high-level design patterns provide support for elegantly programming fault tolerant systems. In contrast to most functional programming languages, Erlang has seen widespread use in industry for programming robust distributed applications (e.g., at Ericsson, at Amazon, and for Facebook applications).

This information is useful for preventing delinquencies and in the management of payments. It provides the necesary measures to avoid unpayments and suggest different strategies re-negotiate debts. Detailed description: Scoring is a valoration procedure that could be used to get different goals. The proposed technology uses it to determine wether a loan should be given to a client studying the information about it.the result may be a yes/no value, an integer value, or a certain score in a set of values (A,B,C..). Traditional scoring systems don't take decissions by themselves but support these decissions. In a final stage a manager (a person) is the one who take it. The importance of the score is determined by the judgement of the manager. This system uses the study of the behaviour from the potential client. The changes in the behaviour of a client should change the score of all the clients with the same profile. When a behavioural variation is produced, the system should suggest an action to take in order of avoid unpyaments, if it is possible. If the unpyment is done, the system would study all the alternatives to get the money back. These set of procedures are also known as "Friendly recovering of outstandings" Innovative aspects / advantages: The system is more proactive than previous scoring systems, that only give an estimation of unsettled payments. This system uses the study of the behaviour from the potential client. The changes in the behaviour of a client should be important to prevent unpaids.

336 Company Profile Page 344 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Sectors: Electronics Activities: Digital Design, Firmware design Technology Offer TO_ES_28039 Multi-architecture microprocessor with a dynamically-reconfigurable control unit A Spanish university has developed a microprocessor that is able to execute instruction sets from different architectures, using a micro-controlled control unit. Therefore, it makes possible to change hardware components from the microprocessor without rebooting or turning it off, in order to execute code compiled for a different architecture. The group is looking for commercial or technical cooperation agreements. Detailed description: Nowadays, most of general-purpose microprocessors are built following RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) architecture. Using this kind of architecture, the set of different instructions that could be executed has been reduced in order to get a simplified design. A RISC processor has two separate parts, the control unit and the data bus. The data bus is composed by all the necessary hardware components to perform the tasks required by each instruction. The control unit purposes include the reception of program instructions that are stored in memory and the generation of control signals necessary for the data bus to execute each instruction. There are several ways to implement a control unit. The most widely used are the hard-wired control unit and the micro-controlled one. The first one, is faster and more efficient and due to this is the most frequently used in RISC processors. The second is more flexible because is capable to change the microprogram to amend errors, adding support for new instructions or even to change the whole instruction set, virtualising another type of processor. The latter approach is being used nowadays to design processors capable of executing instruction sets from different architectures just modifying the microprogram. This could be done due to high similarity among them, and therefore it is possible to execute all these sets over the same data bus with slight adjustments. Using these features it is possible to execute diverse instruction sets from different architectures, using a micro-controlled control unit. Therefore, it makes possible to change hardware components from the microprocessor without rebooting or turning it off, in order to execute code compiled for a different architecture. This alternative goes beyond the use of programmable logic circuits (FPGAs) to change dynamically the control unit by extending it to ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) processors. Innovative aspects / advantages: Nowadays, existing solutions for executing code compiled for different architectures are a simple translation of it. This technology modifies dynamically

337 hardware components for the native execution of the new code. This alternative goes beyond the use of programmable logic circuits (FPGAs) to change dynamically the control unit by extending it to ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) processors. Main advantages: This technology involves improvements in virtualisation due to the possibility of modifying the control unit in execution time, in order to get a native execution of both codes in the processor without decreasing its performance. The developed solution may ease a possible alternative to avoid DPA attacks in high-security systems. To achieve this goal it is advisable to change the instruction set periodically. The objective is that no one could guess which program is running over a precise microprocessor by checking its power consumption.

338 Company Profile Page 346 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Sectors: Electronics Activities: Digital Design, Firmware design Technology Offer TO_ES_28040 Adaptable platform for cryptographic applications based on libre hardware Detailed description: A spanish university has developed an embedded system to accelerate the execution of cryptographic applications based of libre hardware. In addition, it could be adaptable to execute other applications or even to use ASIC/FPGA architectures. The main advantage of this technology is the cost reduction related to royalties and licenses. The group is looking for commercial agreements with technical assistance. The platform provides the deployment of embedded systems with hardware acceleration for cryptographic applications. The software could be developed using an abstraction for the hardware layer. The platform uses a 32-bit microprocessor (OpenRISC 1200) with a Linux operating system, communication and memory drivers, as well as cryptographic accelerators. All this hardware parts are distributed under GPL license so the interested company must not pay nor for the development neither royalties for its product. The associated cost is related to the development of the system using a determined architecture and for the migration of the applications. All the coding from Celoxica_s RC203 platform might be downloaded from This platform could be implemented using FPGA or using a tailor made chip that would require more performance. The platform is fully customisable, making possible to change its parts. In the case that the client would want to implement processors that use compiled code, the system could be migrated. In the case that the client would want to accelerate via hardware another kind of application, the group can develop customised co-processors. Innovative aspects / advantages: The use of open hardware provides the implementation of this technology without any cost associated to the use of these parts, regardless of its application. The platform is adaptable to other applications that would need specific hardware acceleration. The VHDL design could be applied to other manufacturing technologies Main advantages: The use of libre hardware involves a higer level of robustness due to the continuous errors depuration by the wide community that are supporting it. The used platforms (OpenRISC, Leon3) has proven efficency as they have been used by large companies such as SONY ERICSSON or the European Space Agency.

340 Company Profile Page 348 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Sectors: Electronics Activities: Digital Design, Firmware design Technology Offer Virtualization on Embedded Systems TO_ES_28042 A spanish university has developed a firmware which allow embedded system developers to execute program compiled to other platform (PIC, ARM, MCS196,..) over a Microblaze processor running in a FPGA. In this way it is possible to automatically port their applications running over obsolete systems to a new platform which offers a great number of advantages. This port is done without modifying the original software. Detailed description: The developed firmware allows to take a program written for a specific microcontroller and runs it without modifications on a microprocessor inside a FPGA. In this way it is possible to execute legacy code, which runs on a system no longer supported by the manufacturer or use the FPGA as only chip of your boards. including the microprocessor and all the peripherals and adapters (DDR, Ethernet,..) the application needs. In this way the system in converted into a System on Chip solution where all the components are embedded inside a single chip, reducing the board size and complexity. The firmware virtualizes the original system over a Microblaze processor running at 100Mhz, in this way it is possible to run the original code up to 10Mhz aprox. depending of the virtualized processor. If more speed is required we offer other solutions like custom microprocessor design or hardware accelerated virtualization. The firmware also models peripherals like timers, watchdogs and so others. If a custom peripheral is needed it is possible to develop it using the FPGA logic. Another possibility is to accelerate some tasks using the FPGA custom logic. The coprocessors can be connected to the Microblaze and mapped into the memory map of the virtualized system. Innovative aspects / advantages: The use of this firmware allows the designers to port their applications to new technologies without need to rewrite all their software. It also provides a way to avoid stock problem with old components. Another very interesting possibility is to use the FPGA logic as a accelerator for some part of the software that needs more performance.

Intelligent Data Management Activities: Not specified Semantics Semantic Based Content Recommendation PS_ES_28322 One of our research interests is focused on the development of semantically enhanced Recommender Systems, leveraged by domain ontologies describing the items to recommend, the users and even their context. The use of semantic annotation allows automatic classification of resources and the discovery of new features that will be very useful. Detailed description: The amount of information (movies, music, books, news, images, web pages and so on.) available everywhere is growing at an exponential rate, making it difficult for users to look for the information they need. This will increasingly be the case, so computer scientists are working on providing end users with appropriate mechanisms to help them search for their information. In this sense, Recommender Systems have become an important research field in the context of web personalization, given the great amount of available data on the Web. In the field of Content-Based Recommendation Systems, it is obvious that a domain ontology describing both the users and the items is a powerful tool which can be used to improve the results, since this kind of system proceeds by comparing the semantic features of the items and the user profiles. By means of semantic inferences, user profiles are discovered automatically, gleaned from (obtained from) personal information and their behaviour in the past. In the same way, via automatic classification, the system will find new features of the items - e.g, if the average price of a restaurant is less than ten euros, the system will add a new feature, i.e, that the restaurant is inexpensive. If the system 'knows' that the user prefers inexpensive items -because s/he has mostly used this kind of goods-, then this restaurant could be a possible candidate to recommend, after taking into account all the other user preferences. Another approach is the use of traditional Collaborative Filtering Algorithms. These methods rely on correlations between the users or the items, based on the ratings that the former gave to the latter. The use of ontologies allows users to define semantic similarity measurements, so the filtering in our case would be 'semantic' instead of 'collaborative'. If we consider an 'item-based' recommendation system, the similarities will be computed on the items, and if we consider 'user-based' systems, the computations will be in relation to the user domain. In both cases, the ontologies will improve the accuracy of the similarities, thanks to the discovery of implicit knowledge that the reasoning process will perform. In addition, the use of domain ontologies will provide several advantages, such as Automatic Classification of items and Semantic Searches. Innovative aspects / We have developed a Collaborative Filtering module -i.e., the traditional approach-, advantages: and we are about to incorporate Semantic Recommendation based on a domain ontology for the items and, finally, Hybrid Recommendation, thus, traditional Collaborative Filtering improved by adding semantics.

Intelligent Data Management Activities: Not specified Semantics Semantic Data and Application Integration PS_ES_28323 Regarding the data integration problem, we have designed an ontology-based mediator framework (the Khaos Ontology-based Mediator Framework, KOMF). Using KOMF, the Systems Biology Metabolic Modeling Assistant (SBMM Assistant, has been developed. Detailed description: With the expansion of the local networks and the Internet in the 90_s, a need arose for applications to communicate with each other. This communication consists of exchanging data and computational effort among different processes with the ultimate goal of building a distributed system. Several solutions have been proposed to overcome the problem of communicating different applications across a network and using this network within a global environment. This problem - known as application integration - has now become a priority task among system providers in environments such as the so-called Grid Computing and Cloud Computing. In these environments a scalable solution to deal with the amount of heterogeneous data is needed. In this way, application integration approaches require data integration techniques to provide uniform access to data sources, making the existence of different locations, query languages and database protocols transparent to the user and applications. In this domain, we are interested in approaches for dealing with large amount of distributed processes and heterogeneous data using application and data integration techniques combined with the Semantic Web technology. On the first hand, regarding the data integration problem, we have designed an ontology-based mediator framework (the Khaos Ontology-based Mediator Framework, KOMF). Using KOMF, the Systems Biology Metabolic Modeling Assistant (SBMM Assistant, has been developed. A Semantic Directory provides a semantic aware resource directory, in which web resources are registered and their semantics published. Using the Semantic Directories we provide a solution for publishing the semantics of resources, and interoperating them with some other applications in the same or different domains. The main goal of KOMF is to provide access to the data using a common data model, and a common query language. Our architecture provides a semantically coherent model representation of the combined data from the wrapped data sources and a transparent access to the combined data through queries to the mediating view. SBMM Assistant is an SBML-compatible and user-friendly tool that gives both the novice or experienced user the ability to capture, enrich, generate and visualize biological networks, to make basic queries about enzymatic kinetics and regulation, and to annotate this information using MIRIAM specifications. Innovative aspects / advantages: An Ontology-Based Mediator provides several advantages with respect to traditional mediator. This solution is adaptable to different domains with a low development cost. Besides, it can be combined with the application integration solutions developed in the research group. These systems have been validated in real scenarios with large sets of information (Biology).

We have developed a Collaborative Filtering module -i.e., the traditional approach-, and we are about to incorporate Semantic Recommendation based on a domain ontology for the items and, finally, Hybrid Recommendation, thus, traditional Collaborative Filtering improved by adding semantics. In addition, businessmen who want to include their business as of interest in Geotrip, will only need to specify some basic features, since our system will provide Automatic Classification based on the domain ontology for the items. Finally, GeoTrip has been designed using two level abstractions; a backend and a frontend. In the backend, there is a special database which contains information, including coordinates from the interesting points, ratings, traditional and experimental algorithms and, so on. Moreover, ontologies describing the contents will be managed at this level using a semantic reasoner. In the frontend, we have designed a graphical user interface that is compatible with the new generation of mobile devices. An online demo for testing GeoTrip can be found at the following url:

350 Company Profile Page 358 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Know-how/ expertise KHE_ES_28008 High perfomance computation on consumer manycore technology (GPGPU) A Spanish university team has developed several applications that exploit new hardware resources as consumer and high-performance opportunities on different fields (image processing, video processing, visual tracking, etc.). New multi-core consumer platforms are replacing fast single-core machines and new paradigms based on parallel computation should take place. Detailed description: New hardware platforms for the mainstream are produced by manufacturers and, fast single-core machines are evolving to slower multi-core (dual-core, quad-core CPUs) and many-core (graphics processing units with 20, 24, 32-cores) systems. This tendency leads to the idea that classical iterative solutions should change to new paradigms, including an extensive use of parallel computation. As a result, parallel algorithms will scale well to new architectural generations of computers. These consumer many-core platforms (like future computers, or newly graphics processing units) can deliver high performance productivity in fields that need data intensive computation. Special fields of interest are the aerospace image reconstruction (like synthetic aberture radar, SAR imaging), defense organisations, medical imaging (PET/CT/MR imaging, image registration, multimodality imaging, tomographic image reconstruction), geographic information systems (GIS), etc. As an example, general-purpose (GP) applications developed under graphics processing units (GPUs) have become a new field of application called as GPGPU. The proposed systems would benefit from the high throughput that these multi- core and many-core processors are delivering in new platforms. Present solutions rely on fast single-core execution paths that are not longer available. Near future technology should rely on parallel algorithms that will scale well to new platforms without wasting redesigning and recoding valuable efforts. Innovative aspects / advantages: Main advantages: With these ideas in mind, new system development will scale from present to future platforms. They will exploit hardware resources efficiently and they will outperform similar technologies that relied on past single-core developments.

354 Company Profile Page 362 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Technology Offer TO_ES_28007 V-ATRAP: Assisted video surveillance system A Spanish university has developed an assisted video surveillance system in order to detect anomalous situations. The system warns the security staff if an unexpected event happens in a controlled environment. The research group uses new algorithms based on particle filters, and exploits the power of graphic processing units (GPU), greater than central processing units (CPUs) one for realtime video processing. The group is looking for technical cooperation agreements and commercial agreements with technical assistance. Detailed description: Nowadays, the availability of video surveillance technologies has boosted the development of efficient security techniques for different environments. However, as capture devices improve, the size of the video streams to process increases. This fact leads to the problem that the storage or real-time processing is not affordable or computationally very expensive. The proposed GPU-based system provides a solution for issues related to the high computational needs of some artificial vision tasks, especially those that deal with mid and low-level tasks (e.g. real-time object detection and tracking for video-surveillance). Besides, it is adaptable to a set of different scenarios (tracking of simple or articulated objects, multiple objects, intrusion detections, etc.) The research group may adapt the technology in order to work with different hardware platforms as, for example, GPUs, video consoles or specific hardware. The convenience of choosing one or another depends on metrics developed to support that decision. Innovative aspects / advantages: The system uses an optimised algorithm for image processing, being adaptable to both the element to detect (objects or people) and to its behaviour (static or dynamic). The objective is to get a system for different environments to guard. The system uses the processing power of graphic computer peripherals as highperformance computing image processors, using their multiprocessing capabilities at a lower cost than using a CPU cluster. Main advantages: The adoption of this technology may reduce the human resources involved in the surveillance process. Moreover, the use of non-specific graphics hardware as multiprocessor involves the reduction of image processing cost. This hardware has been traditionally used for other tasks so this technology broadens their use. Nevertheless, these systems can be adaptable to other hardware platforms. The developed algorithms are more efficient in terms of processing costs than the preceding approaches. Current state of Development phase laboratory tested

356 Company Profile Page 364 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Technology Offer TO_ES_28009 Scenario Modelling, Visual Tracking and Activity Recognition for Visual Surveillance Scenario modeling, visual tracking and human activity recognition are important tasks with multiple applications in video surveillance, human computer interaction, etc. An important and active interdisciplinary research area deals with the development of computational systems capable of automatically interpret a video sequence and extract useful and close to natural language information. The main aim of this technology is to develop models, algorithms and intelligent systems for surveillance applications. Detailed description: The combination of visual tracking, pattern recognition and learning methods can produce effective and efficient surveillance systems. This technology is aimed to develop software tools which automatically recognizes human actions and detects unusual activities (such as the discrimination between normal and potentially risky situations) using "intelligent cameras". Specifically, the main interests of this technology are: 1. The development of efficient scenario models applied to visual surveillance. 2. The development of efficient and effective visual tracking algorithms. 3. The adaptation of these visual tracking algorithms for the extraction of the representative features in the video sequence. 4. The development of new knowledge-based models and reasoning models for human activity recognition. 5. The development of pattern recognition-based methods for human activity recognition in surveillance environments. 6. The development of learning-based methods to allow the system to learn from the process history. 7. The development of an intelligent camera prototype capable to produce a close natural language description of the scene. Innovative aspects / There are some innovative aspects in our proposal: advantages: - Nowadays, the great majority of the intelligent cameras on the market performs only low-level image processing. Our aim is to develop an intelligent camera which performs higher level processing. - The visual tracking algorithms have demonstrated better results than others in the scientific literature, especially in scenes involving multiple people. - The integration of multiple technologies allow to deal with complex and realworld applications. Main advantages: Automatic visual surveillance is a complex task. Nowadays, most of the surveillance systems are monitored by human operators. These surveillance systems are becoming more and more complex, involving an important number of cameras (for example, up to 9000 cameras aboard the buses in Madrid). Then, it is necessary to filter this huge amount of information, providing only the relevant information to the human operator. The inclusion of this technology in video surveillance systems is not oriented to substitute human operators but to assist them in the decision making.

359 Company Profile Page 367 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Technology Offer TO_ES_28060 VISPPER - Web crawler generation system suitable for information extraction A Spanish university has developed Vispper, a computer application allowing the generation of web crawlers for automating information extraction tasks on unstructured web sites. The user may automate easily any information extraction task, even when different web sources are used. The system is highly configurable and fast. The research group owner of Vispper is looking for commercial agreements with companies and is also open for technical collaboration to develop new features. Detailed description: Vispper is a system capable of connecting to any web document available in the Internet, extract the information contained in that site following the rules provided by a user and offer that extracted information in a structured format easy to recover and use. Hence, Vispper is a tool developed with the objective of minimizing the temporal and economical costs required to extract information from conventional web sources. To achieve that objective, Vispper has been build with two main modules: - The visual tagging module, which is called Vispper Designer. Vispper Designer contains a rendering engine, which allows the visualization of any web page or document in the same way as it is represented by any traditional web browser like Firefox or Internet Explorer. It is important to remark that this engine supports all current web standards including most modern versions of HTML, CSS, javascript execution, Ajax, etc. Once the page has been rendered in Vispper GUI, the user may visually select all data contained in the page, which is relevant for the extraction process. In this way, through mouse clicks, the users may tag appropriately the different parts of the page following a predefined data scheme. This scheme indicates how data will be stored after the extraction process and may correspond with the structure of an XML document or a set of tables in a relational database. Hence, each time the users performs an action with his mouse or inserts information with the keyboard, Vispper records and analyzes it to precisely understand what are the parts of the page the user is interested in and what navigation steps are necessary to get to the information of interest. After that, Vispper Designer generates a computer program called a wrapper. When a wrapper executes it automatically extracts the requested information from the selected web page storing it in a structured way. Vispper generated wrappers use internally XPath technology over the DOM tree representation of the HTML page to identify and extract its relevant parts. Hence, these relevant parts are recognized though an XPath expression which may be visually inserted through the described mouse clicks, or manually provided by expert users. - An engine for data management and control called Vispper Engine. Vispper Engine is a wrapper container developed using JEE technology. It allows scheduling the executions of extraction wrappers at particular times and managing the databases or XML files where the obtained data is stored. It also allows comparing the current information of a site with previously extracted information and, depending of the particular configuration options, may produce alarms or notifications to system administrators. Hence, by using Vispper, any user may convert a particular web page or site into a structured data source offered to the final user as a relational database, an XML file or a Web Service. This can be achieved without the need of modifying the technologies used by the web site owning the information, nor requiring access to

360 its primary data sources (the databases used by the own site to build its pages). Vispper is not intrusive in any way, it may even work without the crawled site noticing its data is being extracted. Innovative aspects / advantages: Vispper is fully based on well known web standards. This makes Vispper to be capable of working with any kind of web page independently on how is built. The application has very rich interoperability properties. it can execute both in Windows based platforms and in any kind of Unix like OS such as Linux or Mac OSx. Vispper is based on the use of open standards and technologies, the source code is easy to understand and to modify. Thus, this adaptation may be carried out by third party organizations in a cost-effective way. Main advantages: Competitor tracking. check for novelties, news, modifications, etc. All this without requiring human supervision and obtaining the information in the format you prefer. News tracking. Tracking a huge set of online media. Mashup generation. Vispper can easily obtain information from third party sites and represent it into a structured way suitable for being used in the generation o mashups. Media content generation from other web sources. Alarm generation when a special event occurs in the contents of a web page. Current state of development of the technology: Development phase laboratory tested Intellectual Property Rights: Secret know-how Vispper has been conceived with a very flexible license model in mind. Currently the source code is protected through industrial secret, but the authors do not discard converting it into open source software is an appropriate business model is found. The research team is open to negotiate any kind of solution related to this issue. Comments about market This technology can be of great interest for all companies wishing to extract and applications: use information from the Internet. In this profile we can find many different types of organizations. However, is probable that Vispper is more interesting to companies related to the Internet in some way. The investment required strongly depends on the objectives of the collaboration. The research team is open to further negotiation. There are many companies and organizations which could be interested in using Vispper including: Very large corporations and government interested in obtaining information about what is published about them in the Internet (for example, Telefónica, IBM, etc.) Real state companies wishing to know about the evolution of real state properties

362 Company Profile Page 370 Spain Universidad Rey Juan Carlos Technology Offer TO_ES_28061 Biometric Technology for Face Recognition. One Spanish University has developed a technology for access control, based on facial recognition of humans. It uses a diffuse lightning system for a better acquired image processing. This system uses a set of clasificators and a neural network to analyse the acquired images and to compare then with the images stored in a database. The research group are looking for companies to develop a prototipe and implement the technology. Detailed description: The system consists on an image acquisition environment and a module for the analysis and classification of this environment. The system allows access control with a personal code and a face image. The person inputs the code (with a keyboard, a magnetic card or some other input device); the system gets automatically a set of pictures and after their analysis, it allows or denies the user access. The system need to have previously a set of pictures from the user to learn his features. Once the system has learnt, it works real-time. The system has been tested with databases involving more than 100 users in controlled environments with great results. Nowadays, the group is testing this system in non-controlled environment such as an airport with very interesting results. To work in an optimum way, the system needs that the images would be acquired from the front side of the face and with a special lightning system to avoid shadows. The system also may include a control centre and several cameras in different locations. Innovative aspects / advantages: The system uses a fuzzy lightning system to avoid shadows in the pictures acquired. The combination of several high technologies determines the similarity between the acquired image and the pattern (usually it would be a picture stored in a database). The artificial intelligence module provides the system capabilities as learning, adapting, generalizing and joining data. The system lets customize the access security level, giving a wide range, from a high security level to a friendly mode system. This could be done in an easy way by the system administrator. Main advantages: The system provides a fast and efficient way to validate users with a mixture of traditional procedures (input a personal access code) and the recognition of biometric features from the user_s face using high technology. Besides, the parts needed for the system implementation are low cost and easy to maintain: halogen lights, digital cameras, general purpose computers, etc. It is possible to build a compact device with full specified functionality. The system allows picture acquisition from several cameras. The system could be modular and scalable.

The ximdex content management system can also include additional modules for annotation, taxonomy management, aggregation of information, interactive application creation, pdf and web form synthesis, content importation, management of semantic portals, etc. Regarding aggregation, for instance, the system periodically visits (external) web sites and recognizes semantic units of information for the automatic inclusion into a repository. Semantic tokens are described to the ximdex system in order to identify the relevant information units (information about a grant or a work offer, etc.) that are published on external sources accessible through the Internet. The system provides an annotated version of the original source. This automatically annotated document can be personalized to a final user using the transformation engine of ximdex in order to filter and expand information as a consequence of the user profile. Innovative aspects / advantages: The use of a semantic web approach allows ximdex to a better management of the abstraction of content/services. Annotations are visually managed and can be shared between different groups, providing elements of information and their relationships with different shapes depending of the context of application. Regarding usability, one problem solved by ximdex is how to map a semantic graph, plenty of relationships between nodes, to a classic portal where information is structured by a limited set of conceptual and well defined relationships between set of elements. In this approach, it is required to map the multidimensional space the semantic repository offers (nodes, annotations of nodes, relationships between nodes, annotations to these relationships; that are represented by a directed graph) to

387 the limited number of dimensions that compose a classic portal with a tree-based structure.
