RESEARCH PROJECTS

-
Building on the requirements of small and medium-sized enterprises, a practice-oriented innovation process model (phase model) was developed. Essential instruments of innovation management were selected and their application was defined along the individual innovation phases and explained in an innovation guide.

-
In the research project, experience transfer process was defined, which ensures that experience values of negotiated projects are collected, structured and positioned for future projects in the correct place.In addition, quantitative (especially cost-oriented) evaluations of e.g. errors made in order to prove the profit from error prevention.

- Diagnostic tool for self-evaluation of the innovative power of companies

The aim of the TV-WEB project is to make Internet content available to those who do not normally use Internet services and do not have a broadband connection. The project idea is to use the capacity of the broadcasting frequency spectrum of free digital terrestrial television (DTT) to transmit selected Internet content (such as news, e-services, etc.). This ensures that certain disadvantaged groups or those living in rural areas without broadband access experience a comparable Internet experience on television sets.
The project concept is different from services where the TV is connected to the Internet. Instead, the SEE TV-WEB project is pursuing the provision of Internet content solely through the use of the DTT spectrum.
The tasks of IITF in the SEE TV-WEB project are the analysis of user behavior and the interest of users in this service, the analysis of the so-called user experience in the course of several usability tests through pilot presentations in different partner countries and the creation of a business model which finances Possibilities and business scenarios of the service after project completion describes. IITF is also head of work package 6 entitled “STUDIES & GUIDELINES” and is responsible for the content and timely execution.

VALUE ANALYSIS – INTERNATIONAL INNOVATION NETWORK FOR THE USE OF VALUATION ANALYSIS AS AN INNOVATION TOOL TO INCREASE THE SUCCESS OF SLOVENIAN AND AUSTRIAN UNDERTAKINGS.
The main objective of the proposed project by the European Regional Development Fund under OP AT-SI 2007-2013 is to establish a cross-border network in which networked research organizations, support organizations and SMEs ensure sustainability of cooperation. Activities such as the continuous development of innovation methodologies, value analysis, training of the workforce and upgrading of competences in line with the program are expected to successfully put knowledge into practice, thus contributing to greater competitiveness and more sustainable development of the regions.

-
The research project will develop necessary activities and methods in the innovation phase of idea realization. The result is a guide that includes content such as marketing, quality, project and cost management. Here, the requirements of small and medium-sized enterprises are taken into account.

- Modernization of work organization and management of knowledge

-
Lifelong Learning has become an essential ingredient for success within our knowledge society. The EU project APOSDLE develops a software platform and tools to support you to learn @ work: Learn within the context of your immediate work and within your current work environment. The new Advanced Process- Oriented Self- Directed Learning Environment will provide you with practical guidance, learning content and expert advice when you need it and where you need it.

-
The aim and purpose of the IPR-Helpdesk is to raise awareness of Intellectual Property Rights and not to give legally binding advice. It is intended to provide any relevant information which may be of assistance to anyone with Intellectual Property queries or concerns

The overall objective of NEAR2050 is to determine the long-term needs of different actors in the railway sector.
In order to achieve this, and based on the project brief, NEAR2050 will look at five main topics, which will each include numerous sub-tasks. These include:
- A determination of the long-term changes in future needs
- A determination of customer requirements
- A determination and analysis of mega-trends and scenarios for 2022, 2030 and 2050
- Effects of 10% fewer cars
Funding Program: Horizon 2020 S2R

-
The research project dealt with the topics “virtual organization / virtual teams, core processes of knowledge management, experience transfer in projects, knowledge oriented value networks, knowledge oriented assessment methodology for innovation processes, knowledge flow analysis, knowledge oriented process modeling, qualitative and quantitative competence management.

-
The project sees its mission in stimulating and enhancing Research and Technology Development cooperation in the field of Information Technologies between the EU and 4 countries of Southeast Asia: Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines.

- The research project Neurovation combines the topics “Neuroscience” and “Innovation” and includes activities in the field of promoting creativity at the knowledge workplace as well as web-based support in the innovation and creativity process with focus on the first phases of the innovation process.

Cooperation of SMEs of the wood and furniture industry in the border region Austria-Hungary in the areas of networking and innovation.
In Western Transdanubia, southern Burgenland and eastern Styria, wood and furniture industries play a decisive role. The latter region is one of Europe’s development and innovation centers. The
Industry development is being strengthened on both sides of the border by several economic development and cluster organizations. Although R & D & I capacities and higher education are in the background, there are only a few initiatives to tackle the cross-border problems. The existing technical knowledge could therefore not be used across borders.
The overall objective of the project is thus to strengthen the innovation-based international competitiveness of SMEs in the wood and furniture industry in the AT-HU border region. This should be achieved through the following activities:
- The possibility of cross-border, operational cooperation.
- Expansion of knowledge about market conditions, knowledge transfer
- Development of innovative niche products
- Providing a technical environment that promotes innovation.
- Development of a recycling system, which substantiates the appearance in the market
Implementation of the activities focuses on cross-border added value and serves as a benchmark for further, similar project projects.
Project period: 05/2017 – 05/2019

In particular the Flex-Rail project (up to TRL – Technology Readiness Level – 2) will formulate technological concepts tackling the work-streams and their interconnection:
- Concepts for the future autonomous railway vehicles “train-centric”
- Promising disruptive technologies impacting automation systems and maintenance concepts
- Railway 4.0
The new technological possibilities and concepts must be thoroughly assessed in a system approach where the different rail system components are integrated and combined can meet the future user needs of different market segments within a competitive environment.
