University of Karlsruhe (TH)  Institute of High-Frequency and Quantum Electronics 5 News in TRIUMPH Budget Distribution: Grant for M25-M36 distributed by coordinator team Some partners have underspend in the last period  Each partner needs to check financial status immediately  If the requested money can not be spend, we need to reallocate the budget between partners to keep the money within the project  Otherwise financial damages could arise  Further discussion by in November 2008

University of Karlsruhe (TH)  Institute of High-Frequency and Quantum Electronics 6 Review Recommendations: Progress The project should revise their IPR strategy in order to live up to the statement given in WP7. (NSN, all) The manufacturability plan given in D7.2 during the first project year should be revisited. (NSN) The potential components and subsystems manufacturers for all critical subsystems should be identified and approached. A consortium strategy and time plan on these matters should be implemented. The project should define a cost/performance target for the integrated system and sub-systems. Other disseminations actions apart from technical publications should be addressed to increase the project visibility (e.g. demonstrations in conference co-located show cases). (done at ECOC: flyer and video) The project must strengthen the contribution to standardization bodies (e.g. IEEE HSSG 100G Ethernet). (???) The project activity report and quarterly management reports for the final period should be more synthetic and concise (focusing only on key results and achievements). (all)
