A European Commission film, copyright-free and available at no cost to television stations, illustrates three typical projects: Promise gathers universities, designers and industrial organisations in the creation of a common software platform aimed at managing the life cycle of products and maintaining the various components, in order to avoid premature wear. Approximately twenty partners are attempting to make software applications compatible with each other and facilitate updates. Efforts are focused especially on the components of rail networks. Nessi aims at bringing the concept of 'personalised information' alive. Software and IT should provide companies and public administration with the flexibility required to promote innovative company models, notably in terms of services. Nessi has a mission to develop strategies aimed at improving the flexibility, interoperability and quality of software infrastructures whilst guaranteeing security and well-being. Amigo is focused on uniting research efforts in the field of so-called 'intelligent' domestic objects, in order to make them compatible and operate as a network. The different technologies used at home could therefore be controlled by a common program, even if they are made by different manufacturers. All our household appliances might someday be managed by a single remote control system.

Software errors have been implicated in several plane accidents in the last 20 years. 00:00:00
There have also been a number of high-tech space projects lost due to malfunctioning programs. 00:00:08
And consumers are often frustrated by glitches on their personal computers, 00:00:13
along with other problems when the external electronic infrastructure fails. 00:00:17
Berlin's shiny new central station, a symbol of confidence in railway technology. 00:00:24
Germany's rail network, like those of other European countries, 00:00:29
is constantly being challenged by rising passenger numbers and the need to update it. 00:00:32
Leon Benjamins is working on creating software that will help. 00:00:37
Take a middle-of-life situation where you're able to monitor the strength of a well. 00:00:43
A well that can be attached to a heavy piece of machinery, 00:00:48
or that's holding a building together, or a crane high up, 00:00:52
or even a structure such as you see around you. 00:00:55
If you can have wireless sensors attached that are able to predict when one of these wells is going to go, 00:00:58
you have a life-saving situation. 00:01:05
This is the aim of the European software project called PROMIS. 00:01:09
Computer programs aimed at improving the management of a wide range of products, 00:01:13
from massive locomotives to the nuts and bolts that go to make them. 00:01:17
All so that material fatigue can be avoided. 00:01:21
And as trains become more complex with thousands of components from different manufacturers, 00:01:24
they're also becoming increasingly dependent upon computer technology. 00:01:28
In Hennigsdorf near Berlin, 00:01:33
Benjamins is meeting software developers working next door to the Bombardier train plant. 00:01:35
Andreas Edler and his PROMIS project team are developing software which will analyze component performance. 00:01:40
We want to make products better and more intelligent. 00:01:47
Trains, or water heaters, or whatever. 00:01:50
You can achieve this only when you know how the products behave while in use. 00:01:53
More than 20 partners from universities, technology providers, 00:02:01
and industrial organizations are participating in PROMIS. 00:02:05
This means they have to agree on a common computer language and software, 00:02:09
even among themselves, before they can go on to develop a system of component surveillance 00:02:13
which individual companies will be able to adapt to their own manufacturing needs. 00:02:18
The software architecture that you choose must be flexible enough 00:02:27
not to prohibit certain requirements of the manufacturers, but to support them. 00:02:31
This program has to be operable for any of them. 00:02:35
Meeting the challenges of creating what's called interoperable software, 00:02:40
i.e. a system compatible with those of any supplier, takes a huge effort. 00:02:44
Competing companies have to work with software researchers in an open way, 00:02:49
sharing knowledge and agreeing to common solutions 00:02:53
so interoperable software can be created for the benefit of all. 00:02:56
There's not one company that's able to deliver the best software. 00:03:03
To deliver the whole solution today, I think PROMIS has succeeded beautifully 00:03:08
in getting a wide group of technology providers, research institutes, together, to work together. 00:03:13
PROMIS isn't the only EU Commission-backed software project. 00:03:23
Here in Brussels, heads of research of leading technology companies 00:03:26
are joining forces on what's known as the Nessie Project. 00:03:30
Its aim? To make the vision of compatible, personalized information become a reality. 00:03:33
Nessie is going to enable the delivery of personalized information, 00:03:44
so delivering what people need, when they need it. 00:03:48
And this requires linking different worlds. 00:03:52
With Nessie, we want to guarantee the possibility of managing bureaucratic needs between different countries. 00:03:55
For example, from the paperwork required in the setting up of a company 00:04:04
to the request for a certificate. 00:04:09
The software will eliminate the need for language compatibility. 00:04:12
A joint European technology platform is the aim of the project developers. 00:04:18
A common interface, which all the participants agree to base their own hard and software technology. 00:04:22
We're going to provide the infrastructure which will allow for the development of many services, 00:04:31
to give small companies the chance to access information that they need most, 00:04:36
so they can find their way around the world. 00:04:40
We are, all of us are competing. 00:04:44
But we are united around the concept that there is not today a single company 00:04:46
that can, or even should, harness the power of an environment 00:04:50
that is going to enable the delivery of all these services. 00:04:54
At the high-tech campus, Maddy Janza from the Philips Experience Lab 00:05:00
is leading the European project Amigo. 00:05:05
Its aim is to unify the attempts of different developers of so-called ambient intelligence 00:05:08
to agree on joint standards, especially in the software technology. 00:05:13
This way, the different machines in a home will be able to be controlled by joint programs 00:05:17
even when they're made by different appliance producers. 00:05:22
The idea of the Amigo project is that it's going to be a platform 00:05:31
The idea of Amigo is that all these devices are interoperable 00:05:37
and can work together in one network. 00:05:42
So that basically means that in the end it should be possible 00:05:45
to operate your dishwasher, for example, via an interface on your flat panel screen. 00:05:49
