4. INTRODUCTION Development of tools to promote R&D projects in the field of contact thermometry in Europe : A database, as a research partner tool Description of Work Task 8.1 § Compilation of relevant R&D projects. § Determination of the content and of the form of the SME database including a description of interactive email hot line services to create virtual thematic clubs.

5. INTRODUCTION Compilation of relevant R&D projects: Working plan First step (3 months) Determination of the content of the SME database Definition of a “relevant” project (criteria) Research of precedence for a such database : inquiries Source : knowledge's network, Institutions, European Union Consulting of the closed and opened calls and inquiries to identify: relevant projects and their fundings, SMEs involved and the society and SME’s needs Identification of the relevant projects Compilation of the data

6. INTRODUCTION Second step (2 months) Determination of the form of the database Definition of the criteria for the classification of the relevant projects including: - Society needs - Different temperature ranges for different needs - Different spatial resolution ranges for different needs - End-user industries involved in relevant projects: process industries, non process industries and both process industries and non process industries Compilation of relevant R&D projects: Working plan
