Significance for science
Pervasive computing is a relatively new research area that has been enabled by technological advances in integration of electornic devices and communications. It has a large potential for further development, because the majority of new devices and solutions will be right those that are characteristic for pervasive computing (sensors, RFIDs, agents structures, ...). On the other hand there is a need for their integration with existing solutions, which are being increasingly moved into the cloud. This will lead to new ways of doing business, and changes in our everdays life, including our private lifes. The initial research decisions of the Pervasive computing programme are now proved to be correct (this judgement is based not only on our high quality, but also some outstanding results), therefore only minor adaptations are expected in the following areas (these are important also for international sicentific community): -the development of new computing paradigms to replace or complement traditional electronic integrated circuits - our focus will remain on tQCA and DNK computing; -new algorithms for solving hard problems (NP-hard and complete problems), including the problems related to managing exponentionally growing rate of available data, and to consequantly support decision making (e.g., in the segment of fraud detection); -new protocols for integration of sensor systems (smart dust, internet of things) with one another, and with higher level structures like private and business systems - sensor networks, especially body area networks, bring new potentials but have stringent requirements (e.g., energy consumption, available numner of logical gates, access to electro-magnetic spectrum) and require adapted solutions and ways for data fusion with existing information systems (also the number of internet of things devices is currently growing exponentially); -new architectures for cloud computing and their integration with existing solutions in business segment, and relocation of the latter solutions into the cloud; -new methods for human factor modeling through support of sensors technology, which will be especially important for decision making and applications in health care sector. CONCLUSION The research programme Pervasive computing had many high ranking publications in the period 2009-2012. Trends in this period were mostly increasing from year to year: • In the area of publications the programme moved into the segment of quality scientific publications, where ther are 20 publications in the first quartiles of their respected groups in cat. 1 and 8 in cat. 2 (group A'). • Among these, there are 8 high-quality publications - scientific monographs and papers (A''). • From the start of the programme we intensified int. collaboration and we are (or have been) collaborating in 5 EU projects, one int. project financed by the Norwegian research agency and one bilateral project financed by ARRS. A new FP 7 project is on the way (please see the attached file). • We have been intensively collaborating with the industry - beside two Centers of competency we had many other collaborations (literally tens of them). The total income in this segment is approx. 1,500,000.- EUR. • We were also promoting the research and results of the programe through media, from TV SLO , to major newspapers, and our own web page.
Significance for the country
The importance of the program for Slovenia is evident in reports about industrial collaboration submitted to ARRS on a yearly basis (in terms of number of projects, as well as in terms of the financial total turn-over). The reports show that we are among leading programmes. Therefore we only shortly summarize the important contributions to socio-economic development of Slovenia: • establishement of new high-tech companies (e.g., through centers of competence where we are already invloved in); • promotion of Slovenia and Slovene science (the recognition of our research can be judged through numerous high-quality and exceptional publications, invited lecturing, international competition awards and collaboration in international commitees and bodies); • production of new high-educated work force in one of those segments that are most important for Slovenia (and also EU) - here we have a very notable contibution with many new PhD-s and MSc-s, where within only last three years we educated 10 PhDs, 19 MScs and almost 300 graduates of the old uni program and both Bologna degrees; • getting European funds through new research projects in the FP 7; • multidisciplinary collaboration in the area of national heritage preservation and restoration (as mentioned, one internal project Sens'O'Cult has just started in this segment a few months ago, where Slovene industry is taking part). Last but not least, the research programme Pervasive computing made a realization of over 400.000 EUR with projects not financed by ARRS, where the majority of these funds was from market projects.
