European Projects Why? Challenge and application of competence New partner. Maintain and develop network Common goals and deadlines strong motivators. (Myths) Why not? Too bureaucratic Too small chance Too small value gained [2]

Evaluation Process Evaluation by experts [6]

Evaluation criteria - STREPS Proposals are evaluated on three criteria Scientific and technical quality Implementation Impact What is a STREP? Small or medium scale focused projects are designed to generate the knowledge required to improve European competitiveness and to meet the needs of society or Community policies: by improving existing or developing new products, processes or services and/or by proving the viability of new technologies offering potential economic advantage EU-Støtte til dit IKT Project, 10. december 2008 Kim G. Larsen [17] ARTEMIS Criteria [7]

The scoring scale Each criterion is given a score out of five, with explanatory comments A threshold of 3/5 must be achieved on each criterion An overall score is calculated for each proposal by simple addition A threshold of 10/15 must be achieved on the overall score Out of scope proposals are given low scores on Criterion 1 Scientific and technical quality [8]

The scoring scale Use the full scale! Half marks may be given 0 The proposal fails to address the criterion under examination or cannot be judged due to missing or incomplete information 1 Very poor - The criterion is addressed in a cursory and unsatisfactory manner. 2 Poor - There are serious inherent weaknesses in relation to the criterion in question. 3 Fair - While the proposal broadly addresses the criterion, there are significant weaknesses that would need correcting. 4 Good - The proposal addresses the criterion well, although certain improvements are possible. 5 Excellent - The proposal successfully addresses all relevant aspects of the criterion in question. Any shortcomings are minor [9]

Quasimodo Goals & Strategy Research Goals Quasimodo 1. Improving the modeling of quantitative aspects 2. Providing a wide range of powerful techniques for analysing models with quantitative information and for establishing abstraction relations between them. 3. Generating predictable code from quantitative models. 4. Improving the overall quality of testing by using suitable quantitative models as the basis for automatically generating sound and correct test cases.

TestCompass TestCompass TestCompass Contact : Sirris Belgium nick.boucart@sirris.be Innovation goals Define the TestCompass reference frame, Short description : Testing is often considered as a necessary evil. In an ideal including the different dimensions of world, testing would not be needed. Unfortunately, testing (test coverage, testing the efforts frequency are of needed to guarantee certain quality and safety levels. testing, Testing amount of usually anticipation requires of potential big and failures ) continuous investments of which the return (ROI) is not always clear. Under doing Define a process for selecting within the Under-doing testing may result in quality huge state and of safety the art problems the practices and Overdoing testing may result in long techniques release cycles to support and the high selected cost test approach Set up different pilot projects to validate Overdoing Develop positioning framework - the TestCompass the reference frame that allows companies to define a test approach with an optimal ROI First for indication their context of Consortium Real value of test, the why of testingsirris, Barco, LMS, AVL, Thales, IVSZ, CEIT, ESI, UPV, Innovalia, IKT Norge, Aalborg Univ., Navigate through the jungle of testing Malardalen approaches Univ, Austrian Research Centers, Fraunhofer When and how to test on what level Countries and to what involved: extend Belgium, France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, UK, Austria, Hungary, Spain, How to increase test effectiveness and Norway, efficiency?
