Workshop on Game Structures & Collaborative Environments 12 May 2005 Brussels |
|
It is the first workshop addressing Game Structures as a research
topic in the context of Collaborative Working Environments. The
workshop aims to explore shared structures in the design and
development of Collaborative Games and Collaborative Working
Environments. Games as well as team work consist of collaborative
tasks. Today, collaboration from ?anywhere at anytime? is
facilitated in working environments and is an upcoming matter for
games. In both realms, designers aim at designing environments that
ease people?s activities and facilitate collaborative activities
that may span across real and virtual spaces.

| EU research – Building Knowledge Europe:
The EU’s new Research Framework Programme 2007-2013 7 April 2005 |
|
On 6 April the European Commission adopted a
proposal for a new EU programme for Research. The proposal provides
new impetus to increase Europe?s growth and competitiveness,
recognising that knowledge is Europe?s greatest resource. The
programme places greater emphasis than in the past on research that
is relevant to the needs of European industry, to help it compete
internationally, and develop its role as a world leader in certain
sectors. The programme will also for the first time provide support for the best in European investigator-driven research, with the creation of a European Research Council. Focus will be on excellence throughout the programme, a requirement if it is to play its role in developing Europe?s global competitiveness. Another priority will be to make participation in the programme simpler and easier, through measures addressing the procedures, plus a rationalisation of instruments In spite of this new approach, there are many elements of continuity: in practice, for the majority of participants, the programme itself will not change, but participation will become simpler. |
