FET Open Xtrack Call Identifier: FP7-ICT-2013-X Publication Date: 12 September 2012 Budget: € 15 000 000 Deadline: 29 January 2013 at 17:00:00 (Brussels local time) Target outcomesThis objective supports the exploration of new and alternative ideas that, because of their risky or non-conventional nature, would not be supported elsewhere in the ICT Workprogramme. It seeks: foundational breakthroughs as crucial steps towards radically new forms and uses of information and information technologies within a clear long-term vision that is far beyond the state of the art; ambitious proof-of-concept and its supporting scientific foundation, where novelty comes from new, high-risk ideas rather than from the refinement of current ICT approaches; new inter-disciplinary collaborations, possibly with prominent and internationally recognized non-EU research teams where these can provide a significant added value.
