ARTEMIS

Driving Innovation
The ARTEMIS Rationale
Already:
• 98% of all processors are used in embedded computing systems.
• 20% of a car’s value is due to embedded electronics and software, which account
for 90% of innovations in engine management, safety and comfort.
• A mobile phone incorporates a digital camera, camcorder, video and music
player, and often an internet browser and desktop office.
By 2012:
• expect 16 billion embedded devices (almost 3 per person on Earth)
• share of embedded systems in the final product value:
automotive (36%), industrial automation (22%), telecommunications (37%),
consumer electronics (41%), health/medical equipment (33%).
A market opportunity for Europe
A third wave of "embedded intelligence" is around the corner
which will lead to the creation of new markets and
applications that we cannot currently envisage.
The ARTEMIS JTI aims to position Europe at the forefront of
this revolution, in sharp contrast to the continuing dominance
of non-European players in desktop computing and Internet.

The ARTEMIS Strategic Agenda

Driving Innovation
SO WHY ARTEMIS THEN
• Good fit to UK business strengths & our investment criteria
– Electronics Design, System Design, Test & Verification, …
– 40% of EU silicon design businesses are UK
– Hardware/Software Co-Development
– End-use markets in aerospace, automotive, healthcare, built
environment, …
– Good sustainability/societal arguments: energy efficiency & safety
• Good arguments for European engagement
– Deals with cross-cutting issues benefiting from cooperation
– Design rules, standards, interoperability, safety, reliability, …
– Good additionality arguments, eg cross-EU supply chains
• SME participation encouraged
• Overall, ARTEMIS presents a GOOD opportunity for long term wealth
creation in the UK.

PROJECT & CONSORTIUM STRUCTURE
Each proposal should address at least one Industrial Priority:
• Reference Designs & Architectures
• Seamless connectivity and middleware
• Design methods and tools
and one sub-programme:
17%
10%
17%
10%
17%

• SP1. Methods & processes for safety-relevant embedded systems
• SP2. Person-centric health management
• SP3. Smart environments and scalable digital services
• SP4. Efficient manufacturing and logistics
• SP5. Computing environments for embedded systems
• SP6. Security, privacy and dependability
• SP7. Embedded technology for sustainable urban life
• SP8. Human-centric design of embedded systems
and clearly identify which have been addressed.
• Proposers are encouraged to address SP1, SP3 and SP5 as a matter of
priority because they are thought to be the most urgent for implementation.
Large projects in the order of 150 MY (or roughly 50 MY/Y) are also
encouraged in each of these 3 sub-programmes.
• …project consortia must be balanced, considering explicitly the involvement of
SMEs and favouring clustering of SMEs in innovation eco-systems.

Driving Innovation
UK COLLABORATORS’ FUNDING LIMITS
• Including both the EC and TSB grants, funding is available up to:
75% of Basic Research work-packages
50% of Applied Research work-packages
25% of Experimental Development work-packages
• and a maximum of:
100% for Universities [that’s 100% of 80% FEC!]
60% for SMEs
50% for larger companies (>250 employees)
– Eligible costs will be based on the CR&D Rules
– Additional public sector funds may be sought up to State Aids limits
– All remaining costs must be met by the UK industrial project partners

ENIAC

WHAT IS ENIAC ABOUT
Driving Innovation
• Development of Nanoelectronics:
… aim to guarantee Europe the earliest possible access to leading-edge integrated
components and design skills for application in high-technology products and services,
thereby reinforcing Europe’s existing industrial strengths and ensuring that core
intellectual property is generated and benefited from in the region.
• More Moore: Following ITRS to smaller devices and larger wafers
• More than Moore: non-digital functions: MEMS, power, radio
• Heterogeneous Integration: where nano- & micro- technologies meet
• [Beyond CMOS]: disruptive materials & architectures
• Design Methods and Tools
• Equipment and Materials

ENIAC: UK APPLICANTS’ ELIGIBILITY AND ENGAGEMENT
• UK membership of ENIAC means that businesses and academics ARE eligible
to be project partners, on the same terms as in ARTEMIS, and claims etc will
be handled in the same way.
• UK organisations are not expected to be positioned to lead ENIAC projects.
• For those wishing to be project partners, no UK national funding is available in
2008, so these collaborators are only eligible for the 16.7% EC grant.
– Free-standing grants (from RDAs/Das, RCs, etc) may be sought to supplement this.
• UK organisations are encouraged to investigate subcontracting opportunities
as an alternative to project membership.

JTI’s: HOW TO INFLUENCE THE FUTURE
• 2008 is only year 1 of a 7-10 year JTI programme.
• The competition content is constructed from the Strategic Research
Agenda by the ARTEMIS and AENEAS Industrial Associations, and
membership is necessary to steer future calls.
• To influence future UK budget allocations requires a case for support,
emphasising:
– UK Capacity to exploit the market opportunities.
– Value added by the EC programme and by national (or regional) UK public
sector support.
• The degree of engagement by UK organisations in the 2008
competitions will influence future UK budget allocations.
