Effective protection of critical infrastructure (CI) requires:  advanced, intelligent detection and sensor systems for both physical and cyber aspects of CI protection;  rapidly and accurately locate and characterize threats against CI, such as acts of cyber or physical intrusion, or the presence of chemicals and/or explosives;  to monitor and report the condition of the various nodes (such as power plants and industrial complexes) and links (such as transportation systems and utilities) that form CI networks;  sensors must communicate with each other and be deployed at many locations to form a robust network;  sensors may take the form of intelligent autonomous software agents that can travel throughout a computing or communications network. USEAID

1.1 Targeted level. - local, national and regional bodies with responsibilities in the areas of risk prevention and CI protection and defence; - CI management body; - manufacturers of sensor devices, developers of software for system operation of the devices; - scientific and educational units. 1.2 Project’s added value. - increasing local, national, regional and European capabilities in the area of defense and security; - enlargement the opportunities for civilian application development; - widening the cost effectiveness by ensuring appropriate business continuity management; - reducing the cost of improving the ecological balance in the region; - creating jobs. USEAID

2. Project objectives EDA priorities. European Defеnce Research and Technology Strategy - 6-th priority ”Command and control technologies (campaign /ops/ mission planning and mgt, battlespace mgt, shared situational understanding, data fusion / mining / reduction, image exploitation, innovative Sensors for Urban Warfare, including acoustic and seismic sensors).” 2.2. Specific objectives.  to reduce the response time of Reaction Forces in crisis situation;  to achieve an interoperability of different technologies sensing devices;  to develop an underwater sensor system model for unauthorized intrusion and contamination by chemical and biological agents;  to develop the Urban Search&Resque (USAR) models for CI protection - oil refinery on the sea bank;  to create a USEAID Model at the local, national and regional level;  to create a prototype of a simulator of the USEAID based on the architectural model.
