Fact sheet:Start of the project: 1 st of January 2006Duration: 24 monthsConsortium: 32 partnersProject Coordinator: Dr. Ir. Neeli R. Prasad from CTIF, AalborgUniversity, Denmark, np@kom.aau.dkProject website: http://www.telecom.ece.ntua.gr/cruise/© Copyright CRUISECRUISE FP6 NoE – IST -4-027738

Motivation for CRUISE NoEWhy is CRUISE NoE necessary?To address current weakness and fragmentation in this field inEuropeTo bring and outline the benefits of sensor networks closer to theEuropean society• Awareness of the immense benefits of wireless sensor networks is stilllow in Europe.Why NOW?Research activities on wireless sensor networks at the national andEuropean level are gaining momentum• Coordination is necessary• Europe should gain leadership© Copyright CRUISECRUISE FP6 NoE – IST -4-027738

CRUISE overall objectivesMake a significant contribution to coordination andeffectiveness of research• Evaluate, update and communicate the State-of-the-Art in wireless sensornetworking to the technical community.• Distil a path from current technological status to a long term vision by definingthe intermediate steps in a vision-based roadmap.Stimulate exchange of researchers and keep them informed ofthe needs of both industry and researchFoster integration and sharing of test beds and research toolsin more effective waysOrganize and participate in events which promote research onsensor networking and the integration of different Europeanresearch initiatives© Copyright CRUISECRUISE FP6 NoE – IST -4-027738
