Dear all,



I want to call your attention to the following workshop:



=============================================================

IAS-13 - Workshop on ROS-Industrial in European Research Projects \
=============================================================

co-located with the IAS-13 Conference on Autonomous Systems, Padua, Italy, July \
15-19, 2014



Workshop Website:

http://ric-eu.rosindustrial.org/july-15th-2014-ias-13-ros-industrial-in-european-research-projects/




Conference Website:

http://www.ias-13.org/



The goal of this workshop is to

--------------------------------------

* obtain a comprehensive list of active public funded research projects using \
ROS(-Industrial)

* obtain a list of ROS-Industrial use cases (and their current / targeted TRLs) in \
these research projects

* identify key technical developments related to ROS-Industrial in European projects

* identify possible synergies of the ROS-Industrial related developments between \
these projects and the ROS-Industrial Consortia \
===============================================================

Important Dates

----------------------------

Submission deadline:                    May 15, 2014

Acceptance notification:              May 30, 2014

Workshop date:                              July 15, 2014

Call for Contribution

---------------------------

What is being established in research is more and more adopted by industry: The open \
source "Robot Operating System" ROS offers highly developed robotics software \
components which can be used in flexible industrial applications.  Transferring these \
capabilities to industrial platforms could revolutionize robotic manufacturing.



Although ROS promises a huge potential, there are still some drawbacks in comparison \
to established proprietary industrial software: e.g., little long-term evaluations of \
ROS on shop floors with respect to non-functional requirements like robustness, \
safety and dependability.



The ROS-Industrial initiative founded in 2012 by Southwest Research Institute, aims \
at eliminating these drawbacks and tap the full potential of ROS for industrial \
robotics. The North American ROS Industrial Consortium was kick-started in March 2013 \
to identify and prioritize ROS-Industrial capabilities for industrial robotics and \
automation as defined by the user community to address its current and future \
applications problems. Furthermore, ROS-Industrial use cases are implemented in \
so-called focused technical projects.



While the European ROS-Industrial consortium is still in its foundation, ROS is \
already used in many European Research projects related to the industrial domain \
(e.g. in the factories of the future calls). The goal of this workshop is to collect \
data and exchange experiences on the application of ROS in European Research \
Projects, in particular in the Factories of the Future (FoF) and ICT programmes.



-----------------

Submission

-----------------

The programme will feature presentations of submission selected by the workshop \
organizers and invited speakers. Both academic and industrial participants are \
welcome to submit short abstracts of ROS-Industrial related research projects.



The abstracts should include:



    * Title of research project

    * Call target

    * Duration

    * Description of project idea and objectives

    * Description of industrial use case (to be) solved with ROS(-Industrial)

    * Contribution to ROS-Industrial technical roadmap
