EU Announces Major Investments in R&D
 The European Union will commit one billion EURs for 236 R&D projects related to Information Society Technologies (IST). The R&R projects are aimed at extending today's Web, Internet and mobile communications technologies, transforming the delivery and performance of services and adding to their variety.
Erkki Liikanen, European Commissioner for Enterprise and the Information Society, said the R&D funding would help ensure Europe's competitiveness.
The EC has recently finalized selection of the 236 R&D projects out of 1,400 proposals that were received. Two specific areas of focus for the IST project include pervasive wireless access and new technologies for extending broadband to every home.
