TEMPO - Training in Embedded Predictive Control and Optimization
From 01-01-2013 to 31-12-2016
Description
TEMPO addresses the needs of European companies and society for embedded control technology, through training on
cutting edge research in the rapidly emerging inter-disciplinary field of embedded predictive control and optimization. The
key objectives are:
- to expand the scientific and technical knowledge platform for Embedded Predictive Control and Optimization in Europe;
- to exploit this platform to train a new generation of world class researchers and professionals that are highly attractive for
employment by the European industry;
- to establish structures for long-term cooperation and strengthen the relations among the leading universities and industry in
Europe in this field, to continuously develop the research training platform that European industry relies on.
To achieve the objectives listed above, the main tasks of TEMPO are:
- to attract and train 14 Early Stage Researchers in embedded MPC and optimization via a joint academic/industrial program
of cutting edge training-by-research, high quality supervision, complementary and transferable skills training, inter-network
secondments, and workshops;
- to create a closely connected group of leading European scientists that are highly sought after by European industry, and
ready to push forward embedded MPC and optimization into new innovative products, industries and services;
- to build a solid foundation for long-term European excellence in this field by disseminating the research and training
outcomes and best practice of TEMPO into the doctoral schools of the partners, and by fostering long-term partnerships and
collaboration mechanisms that will outlast the ITN;
- to disseminate the know-how of the participants to each other and to external groups via networking activities, intersectoral
exposure, secondments, workshops, demonstrations, sharing of learning material, public engagement and outreach .
